    Just dont have the drive to play this game anymore

    Am I the only one?

    The patches have helped to make it somewhat better(although they only fixed what shouldnt have been broken), but when I turn it on, I just find it boring.

    Maybe if I had just bought it like a couple weeks ago, I'd have more fun with it. But having had it pretty much collecting dust off & on since July, it's just like its too late for it to be fun.

    I've had it since release & still enjoying it. And what do you mean by too late? There is plenty of college football.

      No your not the only one. The game the first few weeks was good but after a little bit of time, the same bull**** pops up. There is no immersion with the game. I already traded it in.

        i think its all about the roster you are using...like other games PES and nba2k if you get a sim style roster it makes the world of difference in the gameplay.....

        we can no longer depend on default rosters to play/deliver great gameplay its done for the masses

        if presentation/bugs/other complaints are your main issue i would say sell the game, its not changing anytime soon

          Well I have named rosters with minor rating changes, but of course as the season goes and we seeplayers standout more more, they need to be updated.

          Pretty much. I should trade it in, but I feel someday I'll get the real urge to play it and I wont have it. lol

          What I mean is, it's just not as fun for some reason...and I like said, if I had just bought it maybe I'd feel a bit different b/c I wouldn't have sat thru all this patch bs. I played last years game well beyond the college football season.

          Of course havign a online dynasty aided in that longevity.

            My job keeps me from playing as much as I would like, but the game has not been ruined for me,

              I'm having more fun with this version of the game than any other NCAA game before. I'm in 2018 of my offline and 2013 in my OD. I still get excited whenever I turn my xbox on and fire the game up.

                Re: Just dont have the drive to play this game anymore

                nah ur not the only one. if i didnt run a OD, id prolly have dust all over this game. the game itself is ok...just played a thrilling OD game last night Cal(me) vs Boise St. lost 14-17...sucked cuz i had missed an earlier fg with 9mph wind that wouldve forced OT.

                the problem with this game is all the probs it had from launch til now and counting. major bugs ruined this release. i ran and played in an OD in ncaa11 up until a month before 12 came out. with this one, im hanging on for dear life and its only october. after patches its somewhat better, but the drive to play has been killed...the patches were "too little too late" and still havent fixed the tendencies all the way. that just couldnt happen with all the good games that followed it for the fall. in the past few months....i have madden which was better out the box, gears 3, fifa12, rage, and bf3 will be out next tues. doesnt leave much room or motivation for old still needs a 4th patch ncaa12 unfortunately. ill play it but only to keep my OD going. totally understand where the OP is coming from

                  You aren't alone, I actually traded my copy in to amazon this week. Sucks because I was an NCAA nut and have been running an online dynasty since it was implemented. This year between game results not recording when advancing the week and BS, unrealistic games majority of the guys washed out.

                    tell me about it....

                    I absolutely love Madden 12 this year...i try to play NCAA 12 but then I always end up wanting to play some more Madden

                    really lost my passion for NCAA 12 way back in July and i just haven't been able to get hyped up enough to dig into it like in years past.

                    Then i picked up NBA 2K12 and now it's like all i play is Madden or NBA 2K

                    I just don't know what happend to me because in the past i would always find something to do to make NCAA Football addictive fo rme whether that be fiddling with sliders or just editing rosters

                    But this year something about the game just hasn't clicked for me

                      Re: Just dont have the drive to play this game anymore

                      PM i have the exact opposite experience.... i cant stand madden this year, i play tons of ncaa12 non stop.

                      last year i had to force myself to touch ncaa11 until i got those classic rosters. i played soooo much madden 11 that 12 is barely an upgrade with huge issues.

                      this years madden camera turns me off. i find myself playing alot of madden 11 where the zoom camera actually is playable.

                      i didnt buy 2k12 since 2k11 is so great and i dont start craving basketball until feb....

                      over the next 15 days BF3, MW3 and UC3 i dont think madden will survive in my collection...

                        I'm still enjoying this game with my offline Dynasty and my two online dynasties.

                        I turned Madden 12 in because of the franchise bugs, can't live without my franchise.

                          This game has literally not left my 360 since release day back in july. I've delved further into dynasty mode than I ever had in the past. But sadly, I think that all changes this tuesday when Battlefield 3 comes out. Then there's Skyrim next month. There's just not enough time.

                            Already traded it in. If I want to play NCAA I will play last years.

                            The presentation was suppose to be better this year but no matter what I did I could not get the volume levels to sound right.

                            I usually buy every other year with EA anyway so no big deal to me.

                            If they get things right I can always rent later if I really want to play but with other games coming it will not get much time anyway.
