I had the exact same issue when I first started playing (I compared the demo to feeling like skating way earlier in this thread). But I now seem to have gotten used to it and don't even notice it anymore.

I think it has to do with your brain "unlearning" NCAA 2010 and learning this game's new level of speed.

Whenever there is an instant replay of a pass where the WR/DB catchup warm happened it looks perfectly fine in the replay. I wonder why there is a noticeable difference.

HEY EA i hope this is the last year with pro tak, its doesnt work..
the game look and feels new but tackling animations need a major upheaval.
we need a system that play out on the fly .
i.e if im tackling a player and as we are falling to the ground my next defender should come and clean his clock while we are falling not cause me to fall off the ball carrier in the opposite direction.(multi hit tackles)
i should see part of the body react to the impact of the hit. not like when the quarterback is falling fully expose from being tackle from behind and two approaching defenders just tuck and rolled


too many times the animations branch out into some unrealistic fashion.

love the catch animations, qb delivery, a ball that spirals , player models and details are awesome.

just please fixed the tackling

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.

Very, very, VERY nice job, EA. I'm glad to see these things get addressed, as they should've been, because it was going on for way too long.

I just dowloaded the demo and I must say that this game is a definite step in the right direction(I played NCAA 10 for the first time last night and it sucked). NCAA 11 actually has me very interested.

First of all, I love the new ESPN integration and presentation...it's a nice touch and makes it feel like I'm watching football.

Gameplay: Gameplay is very much improved, although there are still some iffy animations and morphs in the game...for example, I tossed a pass down field using Christian Ponder. Florida's DB batted the ball up and my WR slide for about 5 yards, almost caught theball, tipped int in the air, and slid another couple of yards.

One thing that I really liked was how the CPU QB overthrew some passes to WIDE OPEN receivers...Florida's QB attempted a deep pass with only one man down field wide open for 6...none of my DB's in the area, and he overthrew the ball and guess what...the receiver didn't magically gain super powers and morph to catch the ball.

I still have to play a few more games...but like I said, I downloaded the demo right after I played NCAA 10 for the first time, and NCAA 11 actually looks pretty good right now...I hope it stays that way.

SN: The last NCAA game I bought was NCAA 09 and said that I wouldn't buy another NCAA football game on release day...NCAA 11 MIGHT change my mind.

Okay, finally got the demo and just played a few games. By far the most noticeable thing is locomotion so far. Everything is much smoother and players are finally tackled in a way that makes sense physically. I love that the deep pass is actually possible now, on any difficulty. The lighting makes all the difference in the world in terms of how the game plays. The addition of new uniforms is fantastic. I love the ability to use more than one helmet now. Haven't seen many personalized plays yet, but I'm assuming they are holding off until the game is released to give us the expanded playbooks. CPU AI is much improved, i.e. if I am on the goal line, they actually run a GOAL LINE play, etc. I have seen some of the errors they have been discussing, but since I noticed that EA has pretty much addressed all of them, I am extremely pleased to know they will be handled by the time he final product arrives. Overall, very excited to play this game, can't wait until July 13th.

have honestly never felt that any of the players were gliding/sliding
