NCAA Football 11 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

My last play of the game, I'm on defense with a 3 point lead.....Long pass... time ticks away, prevent defense in place for the
WI....

----- the ball goes though my defenders forearm, the WR catches the ball for a touchdown...

I lose---------------sigh-- another year, nothings changed.

I ask myself, "Self, am I the only one that notices or cares about clipping in a sports game?" If I am, I am stunned....

Non Legal Disclaimer:

This is not a troll post bashing EA. I have been apart of this site since for over 13 years and have spent hundreds if not thousands of dollars to buy EA Sports games (3DO console purchase to play the Foes of Ali and Madden-WTF).

2 Questions for all of you and EA: <-- like they would answer my question....

1. Why do any of you keep buying this game year after year when clipping continues to be an EA Sports virus that spreads through each of their franchises i.e. Balls passing though arms, players passing though one another etc..?

2. How can EA host actual tournaments for shinny trophy's or flair you can wear to work when a ball or player can pass though a a solid object? Bueller?...... Bueller?.....FRY... FRY..FRY?

It's obvious by now that either A- they don't know how to fix it or B- it
can't be fixed in the current engine. I would bet the answer is B Shirley because there is no way a day one tester wouldn't open a defect for this issue.

I guess I will have to wait for the next gen console and a new engine to fix the elephant in the room. Until then pass.....

Rant over/.. For all of you who continue to ignore this issue, don't worry this post will be 5 pages deep in a few days...

I've bought NCAA games since 1998 and I can say that something like that just doesn't bother me. I understand that no computer game will ever be perfect and graphical glitches like the ball warping through someone doesn't ruin the game for me. Honestly, most of the time it just makes me laugh if I see it. I usually don't look at the replays very closely either, so I wouldn't even notice if the ball warped through a guys arm 98% of the time anyway.

Imagine the things you can do with LSU and Russell Shepard, putting him at WR, Tailback, Wildcat, the possibilities are endless!!!

Agreed...It may seem small to some, but this was always a game-killer for me on next gen consoles. It killed me not being able to customize my special teams units or defensive sub packages.

I just downloaded the 360 demo and have a question. How do i get the Pro Combat uniforms? I got them fine on the PS3 but for some reason they aren't being unlocked.

Did you make sure to select 'Go Online' and not 'Continue to demo'?

I actually have the same problem this guy has. My issue is that I played the matchup with OSU / Miami and FSU / Florida. Those uniforms were unlocked. Then I shared the demo with a friend to unlock the other uniforms.

My problem is now, I've played the Clemson/Mizzou and OU/Texas match up but the uniforms will not unlock. I am online when these games are played, and I've waited until the game actually ends (plays all of the animations at the end) and still no unlocked uniforms.

I'm wondering if my problem is related to the fact that I shared the demo before playing all 4 matchups.

Pretty sure I went online, but I'll check. The "Share the demo" portion worked and I got those three unis, but I can't unlock any others for some reason.

That wasn't an issue for me, I "shared" it before finishing all 4 games
