Official NCAA 12! Thread

I won't get this for another week. Luckily though I'll only be paying 20 for it.

EA hook ups FTW/L.

$40 off is a definite win. Especially for only having to wait a week.

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

I don't even want to buy it.

I will.

But I won't like it.

 

[St. Francisco]

I have to go offshore tonight...for 15 days. FUCK.

Not only will I miss NCAA, but I'll also be without A Dance with Dragons unless my Nook can miraculously download it on that slow-ass internet.

I'm doing the B2G1 Best Buy deal, I have a $75 gift card and I'm debating whether or not to donate plasma tomorrow and get an extra $75 so I don't have to pay for it...I think that would be worth it haha.

If you live somewhere that pays for plasma, you should be doing it as often as possible.

 

[wingsfan77]

I didn't even know about it until the other day, I'm covering a case due to a co-worker being on vacation and the lady donates twice a week every week and gets $75 a pop.

Anyway, back on topic, YAY FOOTBALL!

 

[nflman2033]

pre-ordered today, will get it this week sometime i imagine.

Launch Day Update



http://www.ea.com/ncaa-football/blog/launch-day-update

Still doesn't fix any of the core problems. Seems most people are content with arcade football now, so this list is enough to win mostly everyone over. The sim players on the other hand, know this doesn't do anything significant to improve the realism of the game.

Core problems won't be fixed with a patch. We will just have to make do with sliders.

Not critiquing your post but......Jesus those problems are silly and seem to be in every year's EA football games. Why is it that they create a game and always have that dumb super jump problem?

Exact reason why I quit playing.....why the fuck should I make do with sliders!?!?! Fuck EA.

In the demo, there weren't as many super jumps as in years past. Of course it still happens occasionally, but at a much less frequency. For me, anyway

 

[DoubleDeuce]

wow so all we can edit is player ratings in the game.

we cant change:
players positions
players height
players weight
players class

I can understand the first three, but changing class? That's just dumb imo

 

[DoubleDeuce]

I can see the issues it would cause on the game. But for some people could use it as a way to get "medical" redshirts and what not.

Not being able to change positions is huge for me because, if a team signs 8 QB like BYU, I want the ability to move that player to another spot to fill up depth.

Hopefully recruiting logic is better this year.

And using it for medical redshirts is a great idea; I never thought about that.

 

[Aso]

I wanna know how the game differs from the demo. I will be playing this late tomorrow so I can't wait.

In Dynasty mode, many of you expressed frustration over CPU controlled teams over signing players at certain positions in future years. This is an issue we fixed early in the cycle for NCAA Football 12, but as can sometimes be the case in software development, a fix to one bug can introduce a bug or revert a fix somewhere else. Unfortunately that was the case with this issue as we reached the end of the development cycle. In this update, position maximum caps have been instituted to prevent the CPU from being able to over sign at a position.

Why did they take this out? I remember it being there 3 or 4 years ago. I remember my friend being jealous because he couldn't do this in the PS2 game.

 

[Maynard]

played the demo and got a good reminder of why not to buy. QB under pressure, i run him to the right sideline under pursuit. defense has a guy in zone dee in the flat...he stands there like a statue until i cross the line and run down the sideline for 45 yards. user big gain ftw

 

[Rush]

Absolutely love this shit.

 

[Realist]

Custom playbooks are really in depth. I can see myself tweaking my playbook all year.

Edit: first patch for ncaa is out
