NCAA Football 10 Videos (IGN)

[marcoyk]

these videos screamed the need for !!!!player momentum!!!! I'm kind of mad that they didn't do anything about the direction changes. last time I checked I can't sprint straight and then keep my speed and sprint right. player momentum would have made it look and play sooooooo soo sooo much more realistically.

Also, I believe I heard him say he was a Florida St fan. Coincidence, I think not.

I'll probably have to go in and edit them down if they're an A+ because there is just no way.

There's no feel of momentum or any sense of weight shifting at all. It all looks robotic and very unrealistic. It's like there is no sense of physics or randomness to the players movements. It all looks so stiff and forced. The look of it is just downright wrong. I know the team has to watch tons of footage of real games and thats why I just can't figure out how they mess this part up every year. I mean is it that hard to look at real footage and then look at the game and say to yourself, "Man these animations just arent realistic or fluid at all. Maybe we should fix this problem." Many of the fans are saying, and have been saying, the same thing every year and it still gets passed over in favor of even more useless features. As it is now the game is very playable and the animations don't hinder the game in anyway other than wtf animations that happen out of nowhere sometimes, and there's no doubt i'm still getting the game just for my love of college football. I just feel strongly that this issue needs to be massively addressed in next years version.

This is exactly the way I feel about EA football games. Madden looks to heading in the right direction though this year. I've never purchased NCAA before but I'm loving the team builder so I'll give the game a go just to mess around with it and create some high school teams. I'll just look at NCAA as an arcade football game, that way I won't be disappointed with the gameplay.

Agreed! Let's get the Madden type stat overlays back in the game.

gameplay looks terrible....DL/OL interaction looks the same as last year except that this time the o-line forms a pocket.

[Exonerated]

Don't see hand to hand combat?

Don't see double teams?

Don't see unblocked read man?

Speed rushes?

Obviously theres a pocket

Am I the only one that thought NCAA played a touch slow last year? I loved how fast the PS2 versions were and if the game plays at that speed I'll be happy.
