Exactly. ODogg over there has put huge amounts of time into the game already and he hasn't posted about seeing it at all. Until I see more than 1 poster talk about it or until I see it with my own eyes tomorrow, I'm not worried. |

I think I count 4 guys who mention it. One who says it's happened a lot, two of the others mention it in the demo, and one other guy in the real version. The other guy who mentions it in the real version does only have one post at the forums. Maybe it isn't as bad as it might seem.

Well, it was copy/pasted by jbmagic. What more do you want?

Could you guys please make sure and start lots of dynasties using the uploading replays feature? It will be the only way I get to enjoy this game. I'm a Wii only guy now (and I'm not buying a watered down version of the game for my old PS2. I just refuse on principle). I demand immediate dynasties. Thanks in advance.

A couple of questions on the uploading of videos. First, are you locked in to only uploading to EA/Xbox Live? If not, is the limit of five videos applicable across all sites?

I would imagine that you are. But as someone said, once you upload it to EA's site, you (and everyone else) can download it as a .FLV file. What I plan on doing is uploading 5 videos per game, downloading them and then reuploading them to a site and linking them that way in my dynasty. I already tried YouTube, but they don't recognize the .FLV file format for uploads (which is weird since the videos you see while watching YouTube are .FLV) |

Ah, that should work. I didn't know how EA stored the vids. As for YouTube, most of their stuff is being re-encoded, so it won't be flash dependent. I'm pretty sure that the native FLV format can't be encoded in H.264, which is the new codec that YouTube (at the prodding of Apple) is moving to.

Question, do you have to wait until you are done playing a game before you upload a video or can you upload while you are in the middle of a game?

Actually, if you read his posts, he says there are few deep passes if you play a lot of cover 2 or 3 deep zone. He says there is more when you play bump and run or M2M. The computer passes well in the short and intermediate game which allows them to move the ball well. Shrug. Only about 22 hours til I'll be home and seeing these things for myself |

Good. Teams don't throw 30+ yard bombs in real life nearly as many times as they have in NCAA and Madden (and not nearly as many times as a lot of people seem to think they do). In playing the demo, the AI team hasn't gone really deep on me except when they catch me single covering the WR going deep, just like in real football. That's a positive, not a negative.

I getting the game tomorrow at Circuit City after work. That $10 gift card you get is pretty cool deal with it.
Overall the game looks impressive. Some flaws but not as many like last season first impressions. The positive posts out does the negative by a wide margin so far. |

Just played a great online game, as Rutgers vs Miami. Unfortunately I lost, 45-42, after getting out to a quick 21-0 lead. I just couldn't keep up with them in pass coverage, and their pass rush was too much for my OL (COMPLETELY unrealistic -- we're still getting screwed by EA ).
Let me ask you guys something...was this Weather Channel Online Feed thing that's used to choose the weather in last year's game? Very cool. Last edited by Logan : 07-16-2007 at 07:27 PM. |

has anyone used supersim yet? it sounds like its running 10 plays in 30 seconds. I hope not I dont want to sim a 4th quarter blowout and have 120 plays run.
edit this may be just campus legend mode Last edited by ageofquarrel : 07-16-2007 at 07:34 PM. |

Anyone have any suggestions for a fun build 'em up college to do a dynasty with? I would like to start with someone who isn't in a major conference but could realistically move into one at some point.

That sounds like the superstar mode in last year's Madden. You'd think that the clock would run a little more realistically in the sim, but I guess not. I'm going to try the campus legend mode when I get back home after midnight, and I'll see how that works out.

Okay, I was playing Cal, was down 14 with just over 4 minutes left in the 4th, and threw a pick so figured that was a good time to give the supersim a shot for you.
Cal took over possession, up 28-14 with 4:13 remaining. Two rushes for short losses, a 31 yard completion, and a 5 yard rushing TD. Extra point good at 3:40. Kick return took 12 seconds off the clock to 3:28. Dropped pass, 20 yard completion, incomplete pass, pass thrown away, 27 yard completion, incomplete, intercepted. Call takes the ball over at 2:36. Short rushing loss, short rushing loss, defensive penalty, short rushing loss, punt (timeouts used on this drive?). Rutgers ball at 2:07. 4 yard rush (by a non-scrambling QB so that was probably with a lot of pressure), short completion, 12 yard completion, incomplete pass, dropped pass, 16 yard completion, 28 yard completion, dropped pass, 14 yard TD catch. Extra point good at 1:02. Cal 35-21. Onside kick recovered by Cal at 0:56. 12 yard run, 6 yard run, 5 yard run, 4 yard run, 7 yard run, fumble - recovered by Rutgers at 0:09. Incomplete pass, 2 yard QB scramble. Game over. First glance...everything looks fine with the number of plays run. I guess you can question the constant running by Cal on the last possession, when taking a knee would have ended it sooner. Last edited by Logan : 07-16-2007 at 08:26 PM. |

Messing around with the uploading highlights feature. Saved my first highlight during the above-mentioned Cal game. I also snapped some pics of one of my LBs separating a guy from the ball in mid-air. One thing I noticed, as I hit the main menu (oh, sabotai...you can only upload things from the main menu...not in the game) and am in my "shrine," my one video highlight is playing on the screen in the background, and my pics are being cycled on screens to the side of the video like a slideshow. Very cool.
Okay, a message for all you defenders out there...don't fuck with Kenny Britt. http://www.easportsworld.com/#video-990/HOME/565 And some pics (taken from some different angles to be fancy): Last edited by Logan : 07-16-2007 at 08:50 PM. |

San Diego State in the MWC. To me it would be the perfect place to play College Football, but they have to compete against USC, UCLA and Cal for talent and always seem to underachieve. I would think if you can build them into a power the Pac 10 could be a possibility. Last edited by BYU 14 : 07-16-2007 at 09:45 PM. |

I'm going to take on UK...most likely on the 2007 version, though. As I detailed in the 2007 thread, I had a futile time trying to take Eastern Michigan to the title game. No matter how well I stacked my schedule or how bad I blew everyone out, I never made it. Oh, and for those who are waiting a few days to buy, BB is running one of those weekend sales with the 10% coupons for Reward Zone members. So that's $5 off the game if you wait until Friday.

I pre-ordered from Amazon and it shipped this morning from Philly, so I should have it when I get home from work. Some kind of dynasty will be started (even if it is to test out formats and such for a real dynasty)

I'm interested in hearing more impressions on the game and particularly the campus legend mode. I liked the concept last year on Madden, but there were a lot of little "nagging" issues IMO.
