Re: A Couple of New NCAA Football 13 Screenshots

I can't believe this hasn't been asked yet... but what is EA's deal w/ the color green? For years it was Michigan State, now it's Baylor. How do they continually get the shade of green wrong? And this year, RG III was in studio, in uniform...

Here's Baylor in the same uniform as above... note the massive difference in the shade of green. Also, from the screen shot above it would appear that they didn't include the gold trim on the numbers. Why???

The gold trim could be there, it may just not be visible given where the lighting is on that uniform.

I agree that the NCAA always has an issue with colors, but I think that has to do with the HDR lighting. If you look at screenshots from NCAA 11 and compare it with NCAA 12 (which introduced the HDR lighting), the colors seem a lot more washed out in 12.

I did a quick google search and this is the best example I can come up with using Miami:

NCAA 11 (also from our very own Playmakers I believe):


NCAA 12:


While NCAA 12 looks superior due to the lighting, I think it's also the reason that the colors are wrong. Look at the orange in 11 compared to 12. 12 seems more washed out.

I believe the same will happen with Madden 12 and 13 as well since this new lighting will be in Madden 13.

Madden 12:


Madden 13:


So either Madden 12's colors were too rich or Madden 13 may have that washed out look like the NCAA series has had.

Just a thought.

So this game looks like 09? Ummm I will have to respectfully disagree.

Player models?

This thread is pure madness. Just pure madness.

For the life of me, I can't understand the purpose of releasing these screenshots. They look like every other d@mn screenshot we've seen over the last couple of months (well, closer to two years). There is not one thing new, enhanced, or exciting in any one of them. But, what do i know. Maybe someone in marketing had 5 minutes to kill.

I'm getting really close to cancelling my pre-order. I hope that some new videos or something will change my mind.

That's how I feel about the whole situation. Everything looks like it's from games in the past.

Off the top of my head:

• At least two new stadiums (North Texas and FAU) plus a new practice facility;
• updates to existing stadiums;
• true progressive lighting (updates after every play);
• motion blur;
• multiple trophy presentation cut scenes;
• substantially upgraded dynasty mode presentation (live cut ins and the ESPN ticker).

Also updated ECU's stadium.

No parts. Even the player models have been upgraded since then.

Re: A Couple of New NCAA Football 13 Screenshots

Honestly I haven't seen much upgrade from 11 to 13 as far as player model and graphics.

The same can be said with pretty much every yearly sports release this gen. Pick any year of The Show or NBA 2k from 09 to current and I seriously doubt that I will be able to tell what year it's from.

"NCAA Football
NCAA thought they’d jump the gun a little bit and give you a taste of what they’re bringing to the table a week early. In addition to revealing their Heisman Playbook on Wednesday May 29^th, they’re also hosting a Heisman Webcast the same day. There may also be another big announcement in the works that we’re not at liberty to discuss yet...but if we were you we would probably be checking the site regularly for some big NCAA news."


Found this on easports.com/e3.. Looks like whatever is in Madden 13 might be in NCAA as well!

Methinks this is regards to the Kinect on the 360 and PSMove on the PS3.

Pretty sure that's just Madden. I believe NCAA is still quarterly updates.

Nope.

"In our previous versions of the game you may have noticed big changes in the lighting at the change of the quarter or the half. With progressive lighting you’ll experience a natural progression of the sun and the stadium shadows as they traverse across the sky and field during game play."
