NCAA 10 Demo Impressions

[Poundtherock]

Question for you guys:

The graphics look absolutely horrible. It seems to be out of focus/fuzzy or not sharp/crisp or something.

Wondering if this is: (1) a PS3 issue; (2) a standard def t.v. issue and/or (3) a NCAA 10 issue?

4] Other: I can tell you this, 720p. Qualiifying: Been trying to find out why I'm recording and the resolution is 720p but the rendering don't come out right. I've tried every rendering setting and it still does not look right. 29fts. What happened to 1080 and 60 fts?

Thanks....didn't look at that before. Considering my experiences today and yous and others revelations here, I am reconsidering NCAA 10. Wait and see now!

absolutely pathetic. the demo has been out 1 DAY and problems with certain aspects of the game have been discovered.

NCAA game testers FTL.

 

[adembroski]

Tough to blame the testers. How much attention would you be paying if you basically had to play this game 8 hours a day, 5 days a week? Gotta be fuckin' brain dead by the end of the cycle.

 

[kyhadley]

Yeah I don't see any problems with the graphics on my 23" HD monitor, on PS3...

 

[1ke]

Graphics look decent to me. Also I just got done playing a bunch of 09. The graphics are just fine.

RETAKE:
(1) a PS3 issue?
Not here.

(2) a standard def t.v. issue and/or?
I swiched from 1080 to standard and yes....a little less resolution, of course, if you compare it to 1080.
I have a 50" plasma 1080.

(3) a NCAA 10 issue?
Most likely, lol.

(4) See post earlier.

:smh:

OK, I played it and I liked it.

I played on Heisman and I lost 17-14.

I didn't like how they changed the controls and I noticed that OU's RE was so fast that when I went out of the pocket trying to scramble with Tebow he got me every time. He had 3 sacks.

Then reach out to the community. You can't tell me 3-4 OS dudes or even guys here wouldn't play that game day and night and give them things.

 

[Tailback U]

Fuck.

I am having second thoughts about this game.

Played a few games today and it was alright. I just hate playing the computer in anything, I only like to play online, so I'm not having much fun playing this right now. I know I'd like it more if it was online but I don't think it'd be that big of a difference.

The game is alright, just not anything I see myself playing for hours while Fight Night is sitting there. I'm also thinking about getting UFC now after playing the demo quite a bit.

 

[BigBiss]

maybe EZ can hook me up with this game for free since its the game I was supose to get last year?

that said I really like the improvements, I just really hate the problems more

Bands are cool, game planning is cool, wind sock are well i dont even notice them.

 

[dave]

This is the first NCAA football game I won't buy in years.
Hell, I remember paying the equivalent of about $100 so BDawg would send me the game (they didn't sell it in Canada).

Only way I see having this game is getting it for free ... and I highly doubt that's gonna happen.

 

[1ke]

Sad state of affairs....Droppin like flies.

Cant blame anybody though...

 

[BossMyShiiUp24]

Will they still have the classic cam in the real game? This action cam is worthless now that it gives away you are passing or running lol

 

[Vinsane]

Hear, hear! Double thanks, lol! Glad I didn't pre-order.

lol, sorry for the double post fellas.

1. No.
2. Possibly, I'm playing on a 42" flat screen LCD. Using HDMI cables and playing on 1080p
3. While I'd love to blame this game for something else, mine is looking fine.

I don't take much of the demo to heart, hell I played the Tiger demo like 30 times without it freezing, purchased the game last week and it has frozen on me 8 times already at different stages of the game now. Doesn't tell you much other than I guess Im having shitty luck who knows.

Agreed.

Don't let this demo be the deciding factor. I'm going to wind up getting this game regardless because I need my college football fix. That and it will hold me over until Madden in which I'll run 50/50 of my playing time to both titles, just like in previous years.

My post earlier was my rant hoping that EA would've done the right thing in giving us a more up to date build, with features, in-game video, etc. Instead we get still frame picture of Erin Andrews and no real presentation eye-candy, just two generic built teams a field and football that can only be described as "six minutes of mayhem".

According to guys at OS, there is no option for different cameras. You are stuck with it like it or not.

If this is true then I won't be buying this game either.

 

[Poundtherock]

Last night, I'm on defense. Three times in a row, when Bradford would get in SG, I would R2 the camera out and 3 times in a row, ball goes over his head. I see what some of you have been talking about regarding that. Not sure if that happens everytime, but I got so disgusted I turned the system off.

It's almost like someone put out this freaked-up build on purpose. Hard to believe that this is the product that will hit the streets. But you never know.

BTW, I agree with many, passing is easy with insane CPU catches......sometimes looking like the ball goes through the DB into the WR's hands.

 

[mobbdeep1122]

I actually might not buy this game either. I thought I was bored because I was playing the CPU. Now that some online guys aren't getting it, I might not waste the $60 for a month's rental.

 

[Tailback U]

It's not just about saving my money, it's now about putting a dent in EA's profit and
making a statement about how angry we are about this bs.

I guess I'll just have to wait till madden 11 to play with Taylor Mays.

Ya, i dont know what to say guys, I just got done laying about 5 more games. Now, it could be that I am the worst at the site, could be, but on hiesman the Gators had 2 sacks, 4 hurries, and 4 knockdowns. To me, the pass rush there.

And I must be the only one who doesn't mind the new camera angle in the passing game. Its different, people usually hate whats different. Yes its more difficult thatn before to judge some balls, but you just gotta adjust. Everyone will adjust and it will be a non-factor in a month.

Running is fun, and defense is tough. But I can handle something being tough for whatever reason. At least its a challenge.

Also, games have not gone over 28 points total. And I agree with vinsane, i got a 40 Sony Bravia with HDMIs. The game looks crisp.
