NCAA Football 12 Reviewer Impressions: Dynasty Mode and Road to Glory

[RColemanVT]

Speaking of the recruiting and rating parity in dynasty, Troy won the National Championship 4 years into my CC dynasty

Excellent write up. One question...

"One of the hidden gems when it comes to NCAA 12's Dynasty mode is the ability to completely customize conferences at the start of every season."

Do you mean in an existing Dynasty we can change those in-between seasons?

Yes sir, there is an option to make changes to conferences before every season

Holy crap. I was already excited to get home and play this, but that just put me over the top. I'm glad I didn't know that this whole time or the wait would've been tougher.

Well I just started my RTG, but I agree, it is a lot of fun importing all the high school teams and playing your way to college. It is enjoyable to choose different schools and see as more schools become interested in you.

My only qualms thus far are 1) various TB-raelated glitches that mix-up logos and uniforms between different schools, and 2) the inability to set custom quarter lengths. Does the NCAA team really think 13 carries and 3 tackles average a game is realistic? Definitely needs longer quarters, I think.

RTG out of game additions great. High School addition great.

But the gameplay of the mode itself needs some help. They need to do a better job of selling on the fact that I'm in the game. The sound is poor, the graphics seem weak in that mode. Maybe different camera angles and sounds. The crowd was pretty weak sounding as well.

Overall the whole presentation in RTG was pretty bad, except for the clips at the end of the quarter and games. The replays were decent as well.

Playing defense in RTG mode can be a challenge. Bad camera angles and switching the direction of the camera in mid throw makes playing pass defense a HUGE challenge.

Be a pro mode gameplay in FIFA is much better then this.
