NCAA Football 14 Presentation Video with Ben Haumiller Introduces Skills Trainer


During a recent interview with Machinima, Producer Ben Haumiller introduces the Skills Trainer for NCAA Football 14, which teaches players some of new gameplay mechanics. No word on whether it will be similar to FIFA's version of the skills trainer.

I hope they're similar to Fifa's. They'd be great for killing some time when an exibition game is too long or when a commissioner hasn't advanced an OD. Plus, I'm sure I'll have to get used to this speed burst thing.

Great. This game has been lacking tutorials for a while now.

I'm wondering if these Skill trainers will be similar to FIFA's Skill games.
I know this is going to make me be "that guy" but eff it, lol. I read something like the bold, confirming they took the time to add a "state of the art Nike Facility" for skill training, yet they continue to neglect adding something like this, I posted about a year ago.

Then have the the first 32 draft pick's in-game player model walk across the stage, put on their team hat, shake Goodell's hand and hold up their new jersey. For the rest of the draft, if you don't simulate, it could just be some in-game character coming to the podium and announcing names, with some kind of player picture and collegiate stat graphic, like real life.

That would seem to be a basic repetitious feature, that would still seem fresh every draft due to the different player models, in-game graphics and overlays that would be displayed on the screen. They could also use that same template for award shows in NCAA and Madden just replace holding up the jersey with holding up a trophy.

Devs are always talking about adding things that can be built on every year and be used repeatedly, this sounds like it fits the criteria, imo.
That's an in-game model that would used every year of a Dynasty and Franchise. If they can add the Nike facility, I would think they could add this too.

I don't play fifa. Is their skills trainer similar to the mini games that used to be in NCAA?

Don't take this wrong, but most young folks that play this game have some type of football experience that's greater than the Dev's that build the game.

From pick-up games, to pee-wee leagues, to Jr High, to high school, to college......
What exactly are they trying to teach that many gamer's already understand from personal experience?
This is why the community picks the game apart.
It's because folks personal experience sees something in the game that's not in-line with realism.

"State of the Art Nike Facility".....
My 1st thought when I hear State of the Art is "Top of the line dynamic/stereo Audio quality"

Here's the big question concerning this area....
Will the Audio/crowd of each stadiums atmosphere match the effort that has been put into this Nike "Practice" facility and the gloves?
