NCAA Football 12 Video - New Zone Coverage

[turftickler]

#40 in the white uniform, not sure which team that is, back pedals as fast as the receiver he is covering. That is not good. Also, the defender (purple uniform) side stepping as fast as the receiver, then picking the ball off is all wrong as well.

Those things can be fixed, but how many more problems will we see that need to be addressed before the demo drops, then before the game drops also?

I will buy this game if it is playable without seeing to much nonsense, but at this point, it does not look playable to the point of even a moderate level of enjoyment.

To those of you who say this kind of stuff doesn't bother, that's your problem, but I want my $60 to go toward a game that I will play for at least 6 months out of the year instead of 6 weeks or even 6 days.

The lack of backpedaling is really bugging me. The defenders backpedaled, while dropping into coverage, in NCAA 11. It makes no sense to remove the backpedaling animation.

This make people have look and dissect zones more I like the improvement to Zone Coverage. Great Job EA

The shuffle technique is exactly the way TCU corners play and it's not just them, either.

I'm gonna give them a chance to fix the sluffle issue. They still have some time. If its not fixed I will be disappointed, but I can live with it as long as most other aspects of the game are good.

I'm sorry, I can't live with players shuffling and still keeping up with players that are sprinting.

That's how I look at it. People say that people skate and shuffle in this game, and I've never really noticed it when I play. I just see them moving, and then I read the defense off of where they're moving, or if they're in man. I mean, if they fixed it, I'd probably notice it, but it's not major for me. I'm in the minority on this one, though.

Well sorry man.

The fact of the matter is, this will not be fixed this gen. The engine just won't allow it. Its the only explanation. Its been in every next gen EA football game since Madden 06. Its improved but if they could figure out a new way for the players to plant and move correctly I am sure they would have by now. I'm not defending them here, just saying what I believe to be true.

And just to be clear. Just because I can live with it doesn't mean I'm ok with it.
