Official NCAA 12! Thread

[ryne candy]

There are going to be some uni's that are obtained by GS pre-order and some others by playing the demo. You will be able to buy all of them later down the line. Ben Haumiller said it during a Live chat awhile back ago.

# The demo will feature two match-ups (TBA) that will allow users to unlock five Nike Pro-Combat uniforms. The other five will be available for EB Games/GameStop pre-orders. However, Producer Ben Haumiller disclosed that the pre-order uniforms will be made available at a later date for all NCAA 12 gamers.

Just to crush your dreams real quick, from the Gamestop site:

Reserve your copy of NCAA Football 12 and receive Nike Pro Combat uniforms for TCU, Ohio State, Boise State, Pittsburgh and Virginia Tech as exclusive GameStop premium uniforms. Nike Pro Combat uniforms are Born of Tradition, Built for Speed. Available online and in-store while supplies lasts.

My life is over.

So these unis make it in:



Instead of these:

My defensive playbook is gonna be the most disgusting D you will ever face

[Bear Pand]

I wonder about that though, I honestly don't think there'll be enough defensive plays/formations in the game to make something that's truly unique. At best it seems like a custom defensive playbook would just end up looking like the multiple book from last year...maybe with a few different formations. They need to make the defensive playbooks deeper in general.

hopefully they will be unlockable in the demo...

There's 10 PC unis, 5 demo, 5 gamestop preorder.

Gamestop: TCU, Ohio State, Boise State, Pittsburgh and Virginia Tech
Demo: Miami, Florida, Oregon State, WVU, Bama

Ea might fuck around and stick WVU in the demo. They're going to release the gamestop uniforms as DLC eventually.

I can't believe uniforms are even a selling point. It's like dressing up Barbie dolls for grown men. The uniforms should be realistic to add to the imersion of the game and that's it. The nitpicking about helmets, dreads, socks, shoes, fucking Pro Combat bullshit shifts the community's credibility into reverse when it comes to getting EA to improve how their game plays.

I give NCAA a pass tho since they fucking deliver with online dynasty, unlike some other major sports game we know, who's online career mode is severely lacking. I won't name names tho *coughmaddencough*

The uniforms should be in the default game, none of this unlockable or preorder nonsense. EA stays on their bs though. SMH at the ppl who run out and preorder from gamestop specifically because of this.

Everyone needs to get their heads wrapped around the concept of DLC. EA Sports is in the business of making money, as is every other company on this planet. That's why every single game has DLC, available for extra money. It simply makes sense that NCAA and Madden would do the same, to increase their profits without really adding anything to the game.

Even if it's not extra money directly, it always is indirectly. Rest assured that Gamestop paid EA Sports some amount of money to get those exclusive uniforms. Me personally, I'll be pre-ordering at Gamestop just for the PC uniforms. Why buy it anywhere else for the same money, and receive less stuff? Plus I like the PC uniforms.

Ok...rant ended. I just get a little tired of everyone always complaining about DLC. This is the age we live in now. Give it up.

I like you, St. Fran, but this may be one of the worst things I've ever read here on VSD.

Why should we accept what corporations shove down our throats in any capacity? If publishers sold zero copies of DLC, they wouldn't charge us more for it.

A big part of the problem in modern society is that we as people are so apathetic and accepting of our current conditions.

I preordered from gamestop partly for the PC and mostly because it only cost me $7.

My life is over.

So these unis make it in:



Instead of these:

I personally think those Pitt PC's are one of the top ones from last year. But as someone said all 10 will be available eventually. I think EA said they had added 140+ uniform additions/changes in this years game.
