NCAA Football 13 Title Update #2 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here

I know this has turned into the "no huddle" gripe thread, but I had another question I haven't seen addressed.

I know EA didn't have this listed in the items fixed (but neither was the Custom Stadium Sounds issue, and apparently that's been fixed), but is the punting still the same to where the ball ALWAYS goes out of the end zone? Does it now occasionally bounce backwards or "die" when you try to down it near the endzone, or does it still only go in one direction?

Well, all i can say is wow. What a beautiful game change, and experience, my first post patch dynasty game was.

Outstanding.


BTW, i liked the no huddle thing. I only run it once in a while, but its cool to see the extra movement, and then hearing of the play. Never did i have a situation where i was out of time calling and executing a play. Youd think, no huddle, play in mind, call it, momentarily get the team on the same page at the line, snap. Seems all good to me.

Cheesers wanna cheese?

this patch just saved me from trading in this game. so far........lol

i only have played 1 game. i have a dynasty with Trojans and i played against #10 Utah.

most fun game i have played yet! the CPU pass defense is much better. now mind you i didnt reset my sliders. i play with pass defense sliders on 75. still, the play of the cpu safeties were much better.

finally, i can break tackles with my RB. i can actually juke somebody now!!!!

im loving the game right now. with this and Madden, i am in football nirvana!

This is really killing dynasty for me at the moment

My impressions after a few games online and a few games offline.

1) The no huddle thing is a problem, not a solution to a problem. End of story.

2) The playbook glitch still exists where you call a play that is X'ed out and the team just huddles on top of the ball. Unacceptable (and supposedly fixed).

3) Game play itself is much better. Defenders seem to react more realistically to the run and option game, so that is encouraging.

4) Pass coverage is not better. Cover 2 still has safety problems, man under still suffers from route mirroring, zones are still static. The only change seems to be the sensitivity defenders have to guys in their area.

All in all, the patch helped gameplay but it hurt or failed to fix others. So basically par for the course.

only thing i care about is "is the strong safety/corner (whichever, but its on the strong side of the field) in cover 2 zone still letting the WR go down the field uncovered?"

Some of you guys are seriously ignorant.

Please tell me at what level the QB runs to the LOS and has to take 6 seconds to signal to his WR that he's going to have to spike the football. Don't worry, I'll wait.

Regardless of how you want to see, from one extent to another, this is a issue. Just like you say it's not realistic that teams can snap in 0 seconds, it's not realistic to take 6-7 seconds to get the play in. As one play ends guys are already looking towards the sidelines, not listening out for the QB.

The purpose of hurry up is to not give the D time to make adjustments. That's the whole point of the offense! For some of you to sit and act like this was EA's great plan all along is asinine. Do you really think they waited until the game dropped to deem that as a problem? Especially when you've been able to do this since '11? Give me a freaking break.

Some of you seriously need to understand how football works in some instances.

What happened to Read and React???


I'm doing all I can to keep playing this game man. The deep ball against Cover 2 is still a major problem I cannot overlook. So, my next step...I'm gonna create playbooks for each type of defense and remove all Cover 2 zone plays.


Also, before the patch, QB's would make errant throws all over the field sometimes even with my QB ACC Slider at 100. Now, even with it at 0, the only incompletions I've seen(well 98% of the time) are throw aways and knockdowns. Is this a sign of ROBO QB being back?


I promise you I'll go back to playing offline without the patch before I deal with these new issues! I'm a doo what I can with testing sliders and ratings before I do though.
