NCAA Football 14

I just noticed a glitch with coach xp. If you get and INT and the review it and uphold it, you get force turnover xp twice

I hear the XP feature is totally broken

The most UNDERRATED level in this game is Varsity level (has been that way since NCAA 11. Reason being is because once you get sliders balanced out you'll start to see how ratings for both players and teams stick out much better. There is a reason why EA releases all demos and retail versions of this game on Varsity level. That is where I think they code the gameplay and Heisman is just coded to provide the most difficult AI challenge but it does not stick to the base default ratings of players shipped with the game. It's not a coincidence that in both NCAA 12 and 13 Heisman has had it's share of broken gameplay once you start moving the sliders around. But on Varsity level all of sudden you start seeing things that render the best gameplay hands down....animations trigger better, gameplay feels and looks more organic. Yes the CPU appears to be more of challenge on Heisman mode but it's not because the AI is smarter which is the biggest lie I've ever heard and usually it's because of a ego thing where guys feel as if a lower level is for kids and not a challenge...what they don't realize is EA takes and gives some kind of coded percentage boost up to the CPU abilities that defy what actual default game ratings suggest. The sliders have little to no effect because of that code applied by EA. As sad as this might sound I hardly doubt EA has a QA dept that spends quality time coding the sliders on all 3 levels to work properly.

Where are your sliders sir?

Every time I get even a sudden urge to go buy the game on impulse, I come back to this forum and realize I shouldn't.

Thanks guys!

I finally played my forst game last night against my buddy online. It looks sharper and played perfectly smooth, not a single hiccup, but seemed pretty identical to previous games to me. One thing I did notice was that DBs and OLBs seemed to shed their blockers much quicker and more realistically and even just react quicker during QB scrambles. It would frustrate the hell out of me when my buddy would run with Denard Robinson and I'd switch to the closest defender only to have him just stand their dumbfounded and watch the QB run right past him.

The Notre Dame helmets only turn to brown on the PS3 version.

Saw some 360 pics where they are brown at night with just a minimal amount of shine

Can't polish a turd.

Saw others from 360 where they look fine. Looks like PS3 got fucked again

My BB wouldnt price match TRU. :bryant:

Me neither, just took my ass to TrU

I didn't even try. I called stores that were near to me (w/in 15 min) and finally found one with PS3 copies and picked it up.

ps3- FSU helmets are too dark too at night...


its a game, its not going to be a sim. Its for fun. Playing online is a pain though because the defense does not do anything and at least last year I didn't have to worry about every single kick returned for a TD . The option/read is made to succeed...its one reason they took out jump the snap in gameplanning.

at least now you can use a created team in practice mode !

48 hours and already a lot of losers have bought their overrated ncaa ultimate team for fear of losing :smh:

games are supposed to be played not analyzed and practiced like defending against world war 3. No one knows what fun is anymore.

its trolling online rep or bust for these morons

Returned a PR and KR in one game, don't think I've ever done that. The blocking once you get loose is lovely.

I'm horribly confused by recruiting in this game

Thanks guys!

I've had that urge twice now. I came close yesterday while I was at Target, but I fought the urge.

 

[Point Blank]

I got it because I knew there was no way I could wait until late August to play a new football game.

I'm horribly confused by recruiting in this game

Very simple. Only target 10-12 recruits, very heavily, in-season and then try to nab as many as you can in the off-season period. I was testing it out this morning and that seemed to work quite well. You won't be able to target much more than that due to the power CPU coaches have in recruiting.

its potentially worse online

There are still openings in Project: 48 if anyone is interested? PM me for details or, head over to the league forums.
