Fact or Fiction: NCAA Football 12 Outlook

And I am being realistic. They have said this is something they are looking into. I don't see what the big deal is that I'm asking that EA do something with their commentary situation? I haven't trashed NCAA 12 at all, and I love everything they have done with the game. I loved the Demo and I'll be the first in line to pick the game up. But it is clear at this point that they need to take a new direction with the commentary. Whether it be Dynamic Commentary or multiple broadcast teams.

You mean for this year or next year? I would definately put down $3 for new commentary.

The Madden team I believe said they were looking into it (could have been NCAA) for next year. They said its something that is very difficult to get together, but I don't doubt that its something they could do in the next couple of years, if not next.

Adding an entrance that 9 out of 10 of us skip over at the beginning of the game is not adding presentation. Show us some stats on the screen. Tell us how many catches our wide receiver has for the year after he makes a catch with an overlay. Show us how many yards we are averaging on first down occasionally. Stuff like that.

This is definitely a second tier sports game on next gen. I know it's comparing two different sports, but the Show and NCAA football series is no comparison. Yea, the show's announcers are stale, but at least they changed one of them. We have been hearing the same crap from the same guys in NCAA since I can remember. And at least the Show's announcers will acknowledge stuff about the game happening. Things like the batter is 2-4 for the day when he comes to the plate or how many pitches the pitcher has thrown. Why can't NCAA tell us how many passes the QB has completed? The realism of the Show is unprecedented.

I'm not going to get in to the horrible physics, and terrible A.I.

With all that said, I will give NCAA props on the online dynasty. It makes the game playable because there is no way I could still be playing dynasty's against the CPU right now.

I will admit I eat, sleep, and breath college football and my standards are high, but I just expected more from this game by the year 2011.

So adding on to presentation is no longer considered adding to presentation. Oh OS...

If watching a team run out of tunnel gets you going more power to you.

I wish we knew what the 1st Tuner Set consisted of.
Would go a long way in helping the community to move on.

What i dont get is; why would EA send out a Demo that is an older build of a game; than the demo that they showed off at E3 this year? Dont they always want to put their best foot forward, and sell lots of games? Is this good business practice?
cheers, from a concerned gamer.

It's not like I sit there and jump up and down while I watch the pregame stuff, but I definitely never skip anything. If the game loaded and went simply to the kickoff, or coin toss, then I'd be pretty upset. Myself and others enjoy watching teams run on to the field. Even in NCAA 11 when it was the same camera angles over and over, I never skipped an entrance in my dynasties.
