I am a little confused. Are you saying the WRs aren't spread out enough?

I don't know if this relates to your issue directly, but I can definitely say that the size of the player models in relation to the field have always been an issue. A guy in my OD forum did a test video and a guy could cover 30 yards in just 6 strides. I don't know if the players are too big, or the field is too small, but the ratio is a little messed up.

I just think players on offense are not aligned right. WR alignments look off and are not utilizing all 53 and 1/3 yards. Outside WR's need to be on the top or bottom of numbers and inside WR need to be aligned on or off hash based on spot of ball.

I like your insight, I will look for this next time I see the game

Honestly if they wanted to, I think they really could add various dread lengths before this game goes to print the middle of June. I mean we talking something the art team could do, just an artistic effect.

I mean it wouldn't be no different then patching in dirty uniforms in like they did last summer.

Hell I would be happy if they just chopped them in half, that way it wouldn't be that long.

I have read more or less every comment regarding this particular thread. And while I can't disrespect what your opinions and thoughts may be in reference to the live stream videos from yesterday. However are some of you ever happy? I feel like certain people on this board regardless of changes, new additions, improvements, etc just can never find the good in this game. Was NCAA 11 the perfect game? Far from it, but it made huge strides from 10 and those before it. In my opinion, it was the best football game to date of the next generation systems. I purchased NCAA 10 the first day it came out and I am still playing it to this very day. I can't honestly say the same for any other game I have ever owned in my life. From what I saw yesterday and what has already been announced I have optimism and full confidence to believe that 12 will be better than 11 and I guarantee it will. We are still more or less two months away from the release date so more and more new information will undoubtedly continue to come out. Lastly, I feel like the developers are sincerely passionate about taking this game to where most of you would like it to be but understand its not going to all happen over night. Stay patient and enjoy this game for what it is otherwise if you worry about truly minor and irrelevant details like dreads it will take away from your overall experience.

More and more I watch the videos the more and more I see it as a no buy again this year... sigh 3 years in a row now. I will just wait till next gen for EA to decide to actually innovate and change engines from that antique canned animation system they are using.

Re: NCAA Football 12 Live Stream Available Now (IGN)

i am liking what i saw. sure, it still has issues as some have pointed out. but i didn't notice it as i'm more big picture during the actual play of the game. of course i notice little issues when they do a replay. but in the end, it's a game and little flaws are how it goes with all of them. so unless i play the demo and these little issues really hamper my ability to enjoy the game, it appears that i'll be buying my first ea football game in nearly four years.

I agree with the poster that said he would be in favor of a 2 year development cycle. I'm tired of the excuse that they didn't have time to fix something, or get to the long-standing "small issues". I could play NCAA 11 for two years with roster updates and conference alignment updates if I knew they had a truly improved game coming in the summer of 2012.

If they had a two year cycle, then the excuse, " We didn't have the time..." would turn into, "We didn't have the money/ resources..." Losing sales for one whole year would hit the game hard and we would be even further behind.

Umm, no.

They didn't "patch in" dirty uni's. The patch fixed a bug that was preventing the uni degredation function that was already in the game from working properly. In effect the patch flipped a switch from "off" to "on".

They aren't going to be adding anything to the game at this point, there isn't time. Maybe next year.

Dreads are unacceptable. I run a tight ship at Arizona and no player will have hair coming out of their helmets on my watch.

Or out of the back of their neck you mean....

Just curious but if NCAA 11 is the best football game this gen why are you still playing NCAA 10? Seems strange to me.

For me personally I'm not going to be happy until they focus on basic fundamental things and build a solid foundation. Instead of basically jerry-rigging a game together and taking shortcuts. Simple things like not making dbs backpedal at the same speed the run just to "improve" pass defense.

I think EA can afford it. I would even pay to be able to download the new rosters/schedules/conferences. If every other gaming company can wait years between releases, then so can E freaking A and their exclusive rights pocket.

They are already losing money on games, anyway. Find creative ways to make sales with downloadable content and go to a 2 year cycle. I doubt it ever happens but I will be in favor of it when the discussion is brought up.

Then remove roster sharing and do a 20 $ downloadable content to basically update rosters for the following year.

That will fill the gap some.

Can you name a single licensed sports title that has a 2 year dev cycle?
