I just hope the player body types aren't determined by their position, all linemen and linebackers are huge no matter their weight. Can they get the revo helmets right and get rid of those ugly Qb facemasks that no one wears.

I'm excited about the dreads and all, but there's a lot more than can be added. Just a few ideas. The weather should impact the field as well as the game, it's almost impossible to have a illusive running back and he never slips during the rain. Also the field should be worn out after a heavy dose of rain and a full game played.

The dynasty mode should be a lot deeper, for instance; if you are returning an impact quarterback, I would like to see the stats shown from last season versus a conference opponent or rival.

It would also be nice to make the team builder dynasty more in depth, you should be able to upgrade the stadium as years pass and you have establish yourself as a powerhouse, also you should be able to represent your conference on your uniforms as well as your home field.

Last but not least make halftime more exciting, show the players inside the locker room and expressions of their body language resulting from the halftime results. Also when the team take the field before the game it should be a lot accurate. I play with FSU I would love to see Chief Osceola ride out on Renegade and spike the flaming spear into the mid field. We need more coaches, on the side line that we can see, with coaches uniforms on. Come on EA let's make the best college football game franchise the best HANDS DOWN!!

Elbow brace on Bostic (UF #52) looks new to me.

I still can't believe how good that pic looks.

I just hope we get numerous camera options this year to really show off the visuals. Custom cameras FTW!

Based on this picture.. what if you could attempt to tackle (or at least grab), or trip a guy running past you while you are down on the ground?

Btw, anyone remember around when did last year's NCAA 11 demo come out? I'm thinking that this year's demo might come out at about the same time. I can't wait to try the demo..

Will this facemask be in the game?

The demo came out on June 14th last year, one month before the game released.

Like I said, welcome to the life of a tormented NCAA fan.

I'm like an abused woman coming back for more. Or maybe a horse rushing to the burning barn.

Despite the fact that I don't think EA will halt production to create the perfect engine (or even a really good one) for fiscal reasons, I do believe (based on NHL and NBA) they have plans to slowly introduce physics to their engines. It's not the perfect solution, but it's something, right?

It's just I think that's one hole. I guess I just wish that the execs would let them come forward and say: "Okay, we screwed up. We know there are some massive holes in the gameplay and we here's the roadmap to how we are going to address them. If you see any others, please bring them to us as we want to make the best product." Right now, it feels like an "us/them" situation at times and they don't really acknowledge that there are significant issues.

As predictable as a sunrise.

I will never understand why people devote time and energy towards games that they do not like and frustrate them.

If you dont like it, dont play it.

If video games frustrate you so much, dedicate your leisure time elsewhere.

that beautiful 3d grass is the first thing i noticed. looks awesome. hopefully it makes it into madden as well.

Happy for the Dreads people xD

[sinc79]

I still don't like how the sleeves look. When they are "tight" they look fine..but when "regular" not so much.

100% Amen!!!

[sinc79]

please don't have so many players come into dynasty with 'regular' sleeves, looks really bad. At least give the option to mass updated a teams sleeves (socks, helmets, gloves, whatever). I would happily go through and update the sleeves to tight on every team at the beginning of every season, I think they look that bad and unnatural.

[sinc79]

EA look at Taylor Martinez above. That is what 'regular' sleeves should look like. Now go up and look at Miami #6 at the very top, it's not close to the real thing. They are bulky and awkward looking. Please fix. Or at least make 80-90% of players have 'tight' sleeves by default. If you are so concerned about fixing color contrast in the shadows, please be concerned about how the jersey sleeves look in all lighting situations. Been asking about this for years.

lol yea, the incoming recruits look horrible. especially the QB's. they have these 17 barred facemask

[Zombiecakes]

The shadows cast by the players body parts look very realistic too.

Re: First NCAA Football 12 Screen

they got the eli manning helmet, shoe laces are now 3-dimensional, dirt looks more real, looks like the ankle braces stay the proper color on grass fields, DREADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, pro combat uniforms, new texture on the jerseys, upgraded lighting system, improved grass texture...that is all I see so far. BUT DAMN, that **** looks awesome. The motion of #6 going to the ground, his dreads twisted and flowing properly in regards to his body, grass stains, and his feet placement are just beautiful.

I hope with the dreads they have options of short, medium, and long dreads, and I hope they have like the flowing dreads, and then option for the dreads to be tied off in a pony tail. And I hope they have long hair for the WHITE GUYS!!!!!!!!!

yea i think we have been cheated on the dreads, if we dont band together as a community the dreads will be the same for the next 4 years. I am very unhappy with the dreads in the game. most of all why did they have to give guys dreads that are 2 feet long, thats just gonna look stupid, its like if everyone had a mullet. these guys apparently dont watch a lot of college football. MORE DREAD OPTIONS EA!!!!!
