EA announces tuner sets, and patch #2

[ryne candy]

I actually like their frontpage ... and their forums are very good for sliders, rosters, first impressions, etc.
But I trust their writers about as much as I trust Richard Nixon in 1972.

I think you are the only one who can remember 1972.

Chris let EA have it recently for the progression problems as well. Is it that bad? Can't we all just get along.

I consider OS business time and VSN party time.

The thing that annoys me the most about pass coverage is sometimes the assignments are messed up. Like vs a 3 wr set I'll come out in a 3-3-5 and my MLB will be covering their 3rd WR for no reason even though I have an extra DB on the field. Then that guy will run out into the flats while my slow linebacker takes his time getting out there to cover him.

I'm sure you probably are doing this already, but "man align" should fix this, no? Or maybe flipping your D to match up your DBs with the strong side set?

They should fix the lame presentation and dead crowds. Sucks the life out of the game. No excitement on big plays.

serious? are u sure u are playing ncaa 11?

i noticed this coverage thing panda is talking about. I saw it when the CPU lined up with 2 WR, 2 TE and 1HB. The 2 TE are on the left and the 2 WR on the right. I come out in 4-3 man under 2 which should put both my CB on the 2 WR....but that didnt happen and my OLB covered the slot WR while the CB covered the one of the TE on the other side. Not how it should be.

Man align doesnt help this

Just barely. I was 6.

Stadium Sounds can really help in that department, and I don't think they are that bad to begin with. Go check out the threads at OS. They have several generic ones. (see, they mean bidness)

You guys don't see a problem with the lack of crowd noise?

This is my first next gen EA football, so maybe that's the issue and you guys are used to it, but the last gen crowds were much better. The atmosphere is so bland in this game. And something is just "off" about the presentation, I can't put my finger on it.

I hate how when there is a fumble you never know and its impossible to try to find the ball and recover so its almost a crapshoot.

Ive learned a long time ago, since the PS2 days...I more usually have on music while playing anyways.

i think the crowds sound great. They are cheering the entire game unless its a blowout. But even when im home and its a blowout they still get up for 3rd down or big play situations. There is so much noise going on during a TD that between the announcers, band, and crowd noise its hard to tell just how loud the crowd is.

on the road is awesome too. they get so loud that at times u cant audible, the controller shakes and i have even had it where a motion guy wont go in motion.

i turned the announcer volume down to 90 and put anything related to the gameplay up to 100. I feel like the sounds in the game are well done and make the games even more exciting. The teams your paying with might make a difference to

Step 1: Go into sound settings turn commentary down 70, maybe even lower.
Step 2: Turn crowd noise up to 100, Adjust as necessary.
Step 3: Download this file it has custom stadium sounds for every team

Doesn't completely solve the problem, but doing this + my custom stadium sounds makes the atmosphere good enough for me. I just need to get a good "1...2...3...4 FIRST DOWN BITCH" chant for Purdue.

I don't see any mention about fixing the whole ''the game is a piece of shit.''

Will that be patch 3?

Holy.... shit.. Seriously?

I guess I spend way too much time focusing on the negatives, when there's so many positives about NCAA 11 - such as the controller shaking.

Jesus Christ, you're fucking gay.
