Yeah, my first 19 games of the demo were on heisan. I saw 4 scrambles combined.

My first game on AA I saw 6 scrambles in that one game. From what I read this problem exists currently in the retail build.

My first thoughts on the demo were heisman is definitely the way to go this year, as I liked how Oregon moved the ball on me, but upon further review, based on the demo, AA with big slider boosts to CPU running game will be the wa to go...

I am loving the tackle button.

I played 2 games earlier and finally won a close gm
16-0 Ala(Me) vs. FSU. I had a long TD run and a Saftey. I was able to establish a running game. I was calling 3 straight run plays in the same formation and called a PA in two drives. I had success on the PA plays because I was able to get the D to fall for it. I went for a TD late when I coulda just Down it
7-3 Texas(Me)
I got shut down the whole time. I moved the ball well and then didnt go for it on a 4th down. Every time Oregon got the ball they was able to move the ball well. Then late fourth Quarter I was able to pull off a 80 TD on a Cross Pattern. I won with few secs left. I was able to get pressure and sacks off Blitzes

How it's possible to swat a ball intended for the sidelines from the hashmarks is beyond me. When I have a ten-yard window between the corner and safety and can't get the ball to him because a linebacker (who by the way, is in no position to make a play other than to turn his hips and pursue the ball's path), has an uncharacteristic attribute that renders your correct "read" worthless, it's defeating. This isn't "difficulty", it's garbage. I like a challenge, don't get me wrong. I do understand that there is no way to "perfectly" duplicate football. Recievers are open on plays, but if a linebacker is 5 yards in front of them, you'll never get the ball to them...unless of course you try to lob it into the waiting hands of a safety or corner.

I agree I love playing on Heisman for a challenge.. I'm not too worry about the passing because I think most of it will be fixed. But if the running through the holes stays the same it's game over if i'm using Nevada. Hopefully it's just because it's the demo and maybe it was an older version with no online tuning updates

Also, I think people are too excited about the KO returns. IT seems way too easy now in the demo, it shouldt be popping so often

About to compare for myself...

Tackling is too hard..i like that there is no suction feature but there is so many big runs due to players not making tackles because they arent in the absolute perfect position to do so

played a game on AA. Alabama vs FSU. Seems alot like last year, though I liked the gameplay last year and this year feels a bit better. Nothing struck me as odd and the difficulty feels just right. Stats were pretty realistic as well, as far as I could tell.

We probably wont notice a big difference from last year until the retail version comes out with the new features, etc..
