NCAA Football 12 Preview

Re: NCAA Football 12 Preview

Again, it comes down to fixing recruiting and adding some dynamic player progression and degression. I want to see mid level teams able to sign some 5 stars every now and then, and Boise State sign ZERO 5 stars like they do in real life. I dont wanna see 50s overall on teams like Ohio State, Texas, Alabama, Florida, Oklahoma, etc, etc. I want JUCOs to have their own list. They should not be in the Top 150, and teams like Ohio State should not be signing 8 JUCOs every year, terrible JUCOs at that. I wanna see conference and non-conference scheduling fixed, or atleast allowed to be editable for every team.

Nice to see that defense is back.

U want a mid level team to sign a 5* but u don't want Boise, who is establishing itself, to sign any?!?! Ummm that's a little outta whack to me. I agree a mid level should sign a 5* but Boise should be able to sign them too even if they haven't received one to this point. I don't think 5* should ALWAYS go to the same 3-5 schools.

Chase,

How was the QB throwing? Could u throw a flag route out in front? Was there an in between pass instead of either being a bullet or a floater?

I think he said in an earlier post he forgot to check.

Wow All this about "presentation" and EA has yet to Fix the sideline or add a chain gang. :-( Im not trying to be negative but I do think that fixing this would have precedence over "stadium lighting". SMH Also from what chase is saying about presentation, its going to be the same without any new commentary just added ESPN effects. Same ol pre game "Impact player" cutscenes.

"And NCAA Football 12 might epitomize that double-edged sword. Some of the tweaks that I was shown and was able to mess around with are immediately noticeable and mostly positive, but for folks wanting widespread change, a new engine or some masterful stroke of development genius that will create this all-new football game should probably reel in their expectations a bit. "

Too late to overhaul the engine? The game is basically using the same engine as last gen. NCAA games. I predict we will actually see some good engine overhauls when either A)They clean house and put a whole new staff working on the game or B) Xbox 900 is out in about 20 years.

For starters I really like the direction this team has been going. I will be buying this year's NCAA Football just for the little bit of info that has come out to date.

Am I happy about the same ol' commentary?: NO
Am I happy about the not having Gameday in this year?: NO

But here is to hoping for next year like every year!

See, it's stuff like this that keeps me from coming in this forum. Oh they don't have a chain gang. Who gives a rats *** about that?

Amen! It is as if everyone else has forgotten the things that had made dynasty mode so frustrating because "Look! Wow! Dreads and silly team openings that I will skip past after seeing them for a week!"

Glad to see gameplay changes in the tackling field

Re: NCAA Football 12 Preview

You guys do realize that there is still plenty of time for EA to pull something out of their sleeves....right? Please tell me I'm not the only one thinking like that....

So what are you thinking???

All these mascot upgrades are great, but my mascot is never right. Just once before I die, can you put the rifle in the Mountaineers hand? I don't care if he never shoots the damn thing, but please, for the love of god, he looks like a complete dork without the rifle. Is there some type of rule, that if a rifle (even one that doesn't fire real bullets or shot) shows up in a video game, that it can't get the 'E' rating? Let common sense prevail, and fix this.

Re: NCAA Football 12 Preview

Chase,
Is the Menu format and screens look the same as last year? I didnt have a problem with it at all

[4solo]

Well Chase said he only played exhib mode maybe College Gameday is only in Dynasty Mode like Extra Point in Madden. (Wishful Thinking) And can someone tell me the obsession with chain gangs is it just that they add more immersion to the game?

"Looks like a dork" LOL! That cracked me up.

Well, you can blame our paranoid society. You know if they put a gun in his hands some kid is going to shoot somebody and blame it on EA.
