West Virginia decides being up by 3 and with only 2 seconds left in the game... to run the ball... unfortunately for them. They choose wrong!

Wonderful AI, EA.

Why are you just posting random images?

From the thread over at OS. Just posting some pictures I think that are really cool or well done.

Awesome for you but how can EA not have it set for the CPU to just down the ball?

I had a strange AI moment in a game too.
My cpu was down by 10 with 3 or so minutes left in the game. On a 4th and 7, easily in FG range, they go for it.
And they had all their timeouts.

CPU decision making is some of the worst EA's ever given us.

idk...

they had 2 seconds and they would have won... IRL they would've knelt. But the AI is bawls.

boy, RtG can be frustrating. started mine over with IDU's rosters and on All American. Also got a few of the teams from my high schools conference on team builder and created my high school.

All of those elements have made the game mor fun and realistic. Whats driving me nuts is the play calling. Im a RB, and my god damn coach will go a half with calling only 1 run. And every time my team gets near the goal line, this mother fucker takes me out. I've managed, miraculously to average about 120 yds per game. Thats mostly cause I go along get 4 or 5 yard per carry and then eventually rip off a big run. I would say 400 of my 500-ish yards after 4 games are off of huge runs.

I do like that All American is tougher on grading. I had interest from every school in the nation after 5-6 games on the varsity test run I did. This time I am through 4 games and just broke the 2 star mark. still have some bigger schools interested but surely not as anything more than deep on the depth chart.

And they didn't just run the ball when they didn't need to, they ran an option no less.


btw, anyone wanna play me. Just got the game on Ps3

That's my picture!

Well I had two days off of work and didn't stop playing this game except to sleep. First I did a little bit of RTG as a RB and OLB. The high school part was cool and all but once I got to a 5 star and every school was offering me, it kind of lost it's mojo. Only got to be a starter for 2 games in season one before being rated a 95 and becoming bored.

Luckily I had dynasty. First I edited the shit out of ND's roster with the stock named version on PS3. Had all the correct equipment for players, which was a first of me going into that much detail. Then I edited my playbook just for the fun of it and remove plays I will never call (PA HB screen passes that never work).

I played every game on Heisman, slow speed, 25 threshold. Won every game and the BCS Championship. Had the best recruiting class in the nation also. Crist had like 30TDs and 20 INTs. Riddick and Floyd had double digit TD's and over 1000 yards. Riddick and Te'o went to the NFL. Not exactly the experience I am looking for.

So for season 2 which I am 4 games in, I am using some Varsity sliders over at OS, and so far I am liking them. Just once I want to play a game where the CPU blows me out, or some upsets, or have me comeback, or anything that is fair. I mean ND is a B+ team and even worse in season 2. In season 1, I was never even nervous about losing a game, so I am hoping these varsity sliders pose a different kind of challenge. I am 4-0 so I will have to wait and see if I ever get my first loss. Also changed my recruiting and now only target 10 guys and give them an hour each. So hopefully I don't pull in so many great players.

I thought there was a way to upload pics for the game, no?

Do you know if these pics are from the 360 or PS3 version?

How have you done all of that in a mere three days?!? Have you eaten? Slept? Taken a shit?
