Official NCAA 2010 Impressions/Q&A Thread

[Tailback U]

I love this game... I really dont know why people hated it before it came out.

It's a pretty solid game, IMO. I know I'll be playing it a lot this year.

Also, Me with the options = Scary for opponents

Running the option is pretty easy this year. I've broken off 20 yard option keepers with Mitch Mustain who has 79 speed. I imagine it's pretty damn easy to run with guys like Pryor and other fast QB's.

Impressions, I want.....

If you use the fake snap online, your opponent will barely jump offside. In fact I have yet to see an offside call on this game and Ive played about 5 games. The risk isnt as big as the reward. In fact it isnt even equal.

And if you set you o line to aggressive you will get called for holding calls atleast 2 times a drive. So again...its not worth using it. I just wish it was more balance.

The cpu defense is tougher on hesiman and robo qb is still there.

Ive had the game since last friday, and I have played easily 20 games. If you fake snap, you will get your opponent to jump when playing online. Ive done it, numerous times, its fun.

And 2 times a drive, i haven't gotten that personally, but Ive seen it. There is a risk reward type of thing going on here. Which is what I think makes it more fun.

Perfect example,. Playin online last night, and I couldnt tackle my opponents rb to save my life. He was breaking mas tackles. I thought to myself, he had to have his aggressive running on, which means easier to strip the ball.

I changed my defensive settings and the next drive i wa able to get a strip. The risk/reward systems works.

Why are they only offering 120 slots as DLC? No way in hell I would use all those. Just sell me 12 slots dammit.

 

[Tengo Juego]

Its not a bad deal if you're working on some kind of project to add like all D-2 schools. But I just wanna use my All Time team.

 

[Tengo Juego]

Oh well then it makes no sense to have that many.

Ya my qb keeps doing feet first slides right away. i have no control over them :sheep:

 

[Golden Taters]

i think u can only import 25 or 40 teams into a dynasty though.

Its only 12. The gamestop and DLC slots are just for play now or if you start a new dynasty its pointless though if you cant expand to more teambuilder dynasty teams :sheep:

Its designed to pick up short gains like inches, maybe a yard.

Yes but on 4th and 1 or 4th and inches he will slide with the ball by his hips so I dont gain any yards at all

Lol in season showdown I'm ranked 18th out of 702 PS3 gamers repping Oklahoma State. It's too bad we have like 9,000 negative sportsmanship points :/

Ok before I get to pissed off, can someone enlighten me as to why the new Minnesota stadium is some generic bullshit stadium in the game? It doesn't even look anything similar to the real thing. They can update new stadiums the year they open in Madden, they updated the new additions to the Wisconsin stadium same year, etc... but they couldn't get this one in?

When I noticed it was some generic stadium, I turned off the game and put The Show back in. I've been waiting a long ass time to play with the Gophers in an outdoor stadium, now this is the year the real one opens, and they couldn't get it in the game? What gives?

I know it sounds a little ridiculous to turn the game off because a new stadium is in it, but if you are a Gopher fan and have had to play in the Metrodome all the time (talking in the video game), then you would feel my pain!

Minnesota plays football!?!?

jms and i were playing last night and talked about this. He said they banned the QB Sneak in their Tradition Leagues because it was a cheese play that always worked for an auto first down. We think EA did this to eliminate the cheese factor (possibly).....i have not seen my QB slide, he always dives

 

[Bomberooski]

Well played. When we had Cory Sauter, Luke Leverson, and Ron Johnson we were at the top of our game.

Can't knock that school much though. Dan Wilson is a Minnesota product.

How's the recruiting this season?

 

[LopaKa]

so this whole time i was playing, i thought they took out the pump up crowd button. But turns out, all you have to do is flick up on the right analog stick and your players pumps up the crowd.

If the defense is in goal-line or in a formation with 5 DL then the QB auto dives. You can only control which direction he dives.

This is only on the QB sneak play though.

 

[FedEx227]

It's a pretty good rule because the QB Sneak use to be nasty you could get like 5-6 yards almost everytime and it was a sure first first down.
