no new camera angles. What you see in the demo is what you get.

my goodness there are some vicious hits in this game. I just laid the wood to a receiver stretching out to make a catch for Ohio State. He stretch and I popped him with a LB. He didn't get up.

I find that reblitzing the DL is the way to go to get them to take a good hard charge up field.


Ive put the demo to bed though..I know what the game is going to be, and what I am going to have to do on the defensive side of the ball, so I dont see the point of playing it anymore.

Looking forward to hearing user vs user feedback,

Just saw a cutscene of players on the sideline doing the Gator Chomp as I moved down the field. Not bad.

I'm no EA Sports *****, but it seems to me that in the NCAA Football series in the last few years, EA has the right idea but wrong implementation. It's like whenever they recognize a flaw in something, they overcompensate when fixing it, which creates another flaw and the cycle continues. I don't think there will ever exist a 'perfect video game'. But why do I get the feeling that the Madden developers invest a little more time and attention (I'm not a Madden head, so feel free to correct me if you disagree)???
For example, what the heck is the deal with the Quarterback Sneak play? I thought this would be fixed this year. There is no reason why on 3rd or 4th and inches the QB would take the ball and fall flat down on his belly for no gain or a slight loss. At any level of football, the QB gets behind the line, lowers his head, and drives his feet until he can't move anymore, or finds a crease and quickly lunges forward! I don't see what's so hard about creating such an animation.
Previously the play was abused because of poor animation (QB running a straight-up sprint through the line as soon as the ball was snapped). Then in 2010 to offset that, they made this 'fall on your belly' animation. Totally sucks. It's 2011! Let's get it right EA!

funny you should mention that. on 2 or 3 occasions i've made hits so vicious the cpu player just wont get up. i'm assuming it's an injury, but being the demo it's just not programmed in.

I don't really think re-rating players is an answer. That doesn't help online or dynasty players at all. Granted, I don't see half the issues people are talking about. I thoroughly enjoy the demo. I'm really looking forward to the game. But you can't satisfy everyone.
