The only thing they got right in the Sim engine is scrambling quarterbacks.

But then they fucked that up with the roster glitch

Some more photos from my dynasty so far.

So does pumping up the crowd do anything in this game?

I know last year the crowd would actually get louder, albeit it was probably just cosmetic. This year there seems to be no effect at all.

 

[Sharkweather]

last year, there were 20 players around the country with over 20).

What the hell game did you play? I must've had a different copy.

I knew my guys were playing differently in my OD but I didn't know why. This makes a lot of sense now. This is probably the best NCAA game to date but screwed because of all the bugs in it

I only find it works on 3rd downs when your team is looking for a big stop. I had my sliders up on false starts and in one game, the CPU had like 7 false start penalties. Don't know if that had anything to do with it or not.

Last year in real life. And edited...20 players over 10 sacks.

4-3 is a terrible defense to run against the GT triple option.

After getting all the way to Signing Day in my RTG (HB), I noticed that the default settings were still intact. I thought I had changed them, but I guess not. I still picked to be 4th string HB at Texas A&M; I was ranked #106 in ESPNU 150. I made another RTG (QB) and going to go trough it at AA level. Not too sure about the mode...in 2 weeks, I've gone 1 up in the depth chart. I can see the problem of being 99 rating in a short timespan.

Gotta cover the pitch man with the safety.

Just got home today, ready to pop this bad boy in...two questions.

1. Gamertag for the best 360 named rosters?
2. Any bugs I need to know about from a simmers-only dynasty perspective?

I am guessing you didn't read anything on this game so far?

Any edits to players completely FUBAR the players tendency. If a player is a scrambling QB, editing in his name makes him a balanced QB and yes, this fucks up the sim part of the whole damn thing. You'll see guys like Landry Jones and Nick Foles run wild and then see Denard Robinson be a pocket QB.

CcAaRrSsOoNn3 or CK11 should have the best rosters.

Well that's fucking awesome.

Dynasty delayed...EA can eat a dick. Any news on an impending patch?

EA was just informed sometime last week. You know how they roll. It'll take like a month, I'm sure. Got to fix the problem then get it validated by Microsoft/Sony.

Yawn.

Had my first punt return since probably NCAA 2010...

I am an NCAA fanboy and fuck this game is broken. Good gameplay doesn't make roster edit glitches acceptable, and progression is completely broken this year again. I'm debating trading the game in or saving it for the patch. Optimism is overrated; EA supporter no more.

 

[JayDizzle]

Trying to get into this by using bad teams versus bad teams against the CPU.

So far I figured out that ULM loves to cheese with QB scrambles in a 5-Wide Set...

Of course if I don't cover his recievers, he bombs that shit to his first WR because the corner on that side (I'm using Idaho) eats French Toast in the morning.

...I'm only down 10-8 though right now so it's not too bad.

EDIT: Just got a safety for the first time since I got the game.

EDIT #2: Aaaannnndddd that shit got bad in a hurry. 23-8 by the end of the game.

I cam close to returning a few in my last game in my offline dynasty. Floyd got tackled by the punter on one. :headbang:

Hate to say it, but yes it does. I'll take great gameplay and shit that needs to be patched over crappy gameplay and no bugs. I will play this version year round, surely it sucks to wait for a patch but the gameplay is beautiful so I'll hold out.
