NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details

I have to chime in here again. I've been a console gamer for years. I've been an NCAA Football series gamer for a long time dating back to PS1. While 2012 isn't the worst game of the series I just am not having any fun playing it. There's way too many issues with the game right now.

I can't believe they released this game with so many problems. Where are the employees testing this game? I mean it seems to me this game was at best minimally tested. Why test when you can leave this up to the consumers? Is that what EA Sports has as a policy?

Here we are waiting for a patch. We don't even know what of the problems can be fixed. We are well almost 2 months since release of this game & it's not an enjoyable game to me. It's always wait for the patch before going overboard. I don't wanna hear that anymore.

We should be having a fun & enjoyable experience but it's not happening. Instead, we are left hanging without any answers. I'm sorry but I don't have any respect for the EA Sports team anymore. They ran into hiding on these very forums once the game was released. Vacation was the excuse?

Poor customer relations is all I can say about how this situation was handled. It's time we step up & put a stop to this. Stop buying these games & let them know we're tired of it. Show us this game can be tested thoroughly & effort is being put into getting out a fully working product. It's obvious this hasn't happened!

Not to go OT, but I don't like hockey or soccer and I'd almost buy those games because they are so good.

There's a shocker, someone from the south doesnt like hockey. We in the north appreciate it for what it is. Those games are spectacular tho. The sad thing is that Im going to wait to buy NHL 12 simply bc of NCAA even though theres never been a problem when I've bought it on release day.

I agree 100% . I am not even playing the game. I paid $60 for this? You are good EA !

I did just that. Other than recent World Cup tourneys I never watch soccer. I barely understand the game, unlike football. But the video game is really fun. I liked the demo so much that I literally traded in NCAA 12 and bought FIFA 11. Now I'm looking forward to FIFA 12,

They seriously need to address the issue of your entire defensive line at times getting pancaked all at once (even by much inferior offensive lines) and they also need to increase the awareness of your offensive lineman when they pull.

The game plays well enough to keep, but there are just a number of little things that hamper the experience. I won't hold my breath though...

Did these updates ever come out?

Not yet, no firm date released yet, the street gossip is end of August.

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details

Wow !! can't get over reading all the negative on here after just playing one of the best football games I have ever played online and I'm 45 yrs. old ...was just a random unranked game and we both played it like your suppose play a football game with no cheesing and neither of us were the best players in the world ..Me Air Force and my opponent Michigan st. and it went back and forth the whole game in a good defensive battle ... then tied 10 to 10 heading into to OT and after 4 OT's !! I finally won and we both ran much better offenses in OT....Great game / instant classic

I have alway's said I think it's tough for EA or any other company to impress every different crowd that plays this game ...I only play online and I if I find a good opponent that's my skill level and plays the game right "That's when I easily get my money's worth" with this game, but everybody is different

I also think that a lot of people do not have a good knowledge of all the different things you can do with the pre-snap adjustments in this game to take away the things that your opponent is killing you with ...Heck !! I still don't know everything, but I continue to learn

I never go into these football games expecting perfection, but if you played video game football 30 years ago "like I did" ...You would have a much better appreciation as to how far these games have come

I wish I could still play real football sooooo bad, but father time has taken that option away : ( ....Sooo this is the only kind of football I can play these days and it easily satisfy's my fix

Thx EA

Just my 2 cents

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details

See, the problem is that the quality and amount of options and presentation has actually taken a step backwards since coming into the current gen of systems. I understand that point above but the games should not be regressing.

Alot of this problem could be solved if NCAA Football had some competition. Luckily, it looks like the days of the exclusivity contract are going away. Thank God!

Well actually I think their exclusivity contract with the NCAA ran out in April. I know they signed a contract with them in April of 2005 and never heard of anything about a renewal with them. So I dont think EA and NCAA are under contract anymore unless it runs out in December which isnt far away either.

Good, 2K would have to wait a couple of years to make a Pro game but they should totally come out with a College game. It would sell, I bet ya!

I agree but I would still need to rent ea's game for the downloaded rosters.

[TheShizNo1]

No, I want 2K nowhere near a college game. 2K3 was their last one and it was horrible.

yep, best competition ea ever had... cant say to much bout college though since i dont think they ever had one but if its anything like their older games from dreamcast or the one when they had espn with them (warren sapp on cover) then they should be really nice. in fact if i recall, 2k rivaled ea neck to neck and thats why probably ea bought out the rights and with that monopoly you see poor production since theres no competition. sneaky bastards lol
