    Re: OS Fact or Fiction: NCAA Football 13 Edition

    I have been going back & forth on whether to upgrade from 12 or not. I have been playing NCAA a lot recently and thought maybe I'd bite the bullet and do it. It's way more playable than Madden '12.

    Now, I'm not so sure again. I just widh I could get updated rosters. I can't come across any complete, maybe once the season starts.

I'm just asking...cause I can remember reading a ad on here talking bout how great it was going to be, and that's after the writer just come from EA playing the game, ......

        The gameplay is too boring and stale. Without solid gameplay there is no reason for me to play the game. I played it for a week to 2 weeks at best and decided to just wait for the 2nd patch but the longer i wait and go without playing this game, the less i miss it. It's just too boring of a game.

          I think it's 12.5... in a good way. I think the community can handle one more game like this.
          Everyone was all upset over last year's game, but I was alright with it. I'm satisfied with this game.
          NCAA 14 just needs to do something actually... different.

            I really Like the TCP. That made a Big Diffrence. I think they did a good Job, I just wish the IE was in this year"s version. TCP made windows that wern't there in the past. It makes for a realistic Passing Game which is awesome, You never feel out of a game IMO. wheather your down by 2 or 20 you can run your offense and make long drives. TCP saves this alone

              After last year's NCAA release, this year is, out of the box, two years ahead, at least.

              That being said, yes, there are still legacy issues of morphing, sliding, skating, magneting, rocketing and all it's ilk that unfortunatley pop it's head out here and there.

              I just recently upgraded to a 55" LED honker tv and the back grounds...the field and stadium...look straight up really bad and sadly outdated.

              The back end on online dynasty is so desperately in need of a rewrite to catch up with current technology. The offseason for 3 of us is a nearly 2 hour odessy mostly spent waiting for uploading of number crunches.

              TCP was a really great addition IMO but it's offset by still horrible o line/d line interactions. There's just too many times where either it's a block or a complete (and blatant) whiff.

              I totally agree, it's going to suck from a "meta play" stand point but in college football, single players can literally take over a whole game. Right Tim Tebow? LMAO!

                The "upgrades" don't justify the cost. $60 for something that basically plays the same, with minor improvements is too much & a major feature removed (exporting draft classes RTG etc) is riduculous.

                I will be laughing at EA Sports when competition video-game football opens up & others come out with good games. Watch EA scramble to try & figure out how to get back their customers.

                I am not buying NCAA 13, or Madden this year. I will stick with waht I have (NCAA 12 & Madden 12). MAYBE, maybe I might buiy them used, but NO WAY am I paying full price for a product that minimal effort was put into creating.

                    THE COMMENTARY HAS WORN OUT ITS WELCOME

                    FACT - There is only so much you can do with Herbstreit and Nessler. The commentary isnt as bad as Madden was but there is just nothing new, its the same recycled lines from years past. The problem is with a game this big and with this many teams you need more than two guys calling the games. They dont even have to be real life broadcasters, bring in some voice actors and create broadcast teams maybe one for each conference. They would have the disk space if they dumped gimmick modes like Mascot Mashup, one button mode and even Heisman mode which gets old after two games.

                      I agree. I find it funny people choose to skip this year when this year, in my eyes, got much more compared to the previous years. 12 was terrible and 13, while far from perfect, is much better even though it still has its problems. I'm enjoying this year's NCAA far more than I have in a long time.

I've started a handful of dynasties and have yet to see any other outcome to the UW-LSU game other than a 31-14 Huskie win. But, on the other hand, the idea is fantastic. But let's be honest, what's the point of taking an innovative idea and poorly executing it?
                      This. Honestly one of the few problems I have with this game is the studio updates. As the guy answered, they are terrible and repetitive. I so wish I could turn them off and I whole heatedly agree with this statement.

                      I'm far from a presentation guy though. I find everything before and after the game to be a waste of time. I'm mashing A from the get go cause I don't have time to sit though the same things every time I play a game.

                        Will passing EVER be mapped to the stick? Maybe I am in the minority on this one but I think it would make it harder to be accurate.

                          Totally agree with this...sometimes I just want to turn off the commentary and pump the crowd noise. Not only is it poor commentary, a lot of the times they say the WRONG stuff.
