NCAA Football 14 Video - Army vs. Navy

[BlackJack_Williams]

I haven't bought a NCAA Football since 04.... I might have to get this one. I really like what I'm seeing! ... I know my USAF isn't the greatest of teams but hopefully I can join them...

Agreed. That's something that belongs in practice mode, not in game mode. Hopefully they let you turn it off.

That said, I like what they've done with the option, but seeing them running it out of a hurry-up offense is pretty painful.

I'm hoping Navy's QB playing pitch and catch in that first drive isn't a sign of things to come. I expect some overthrows, underthrows, and drops from option teams. I already have a copy of NFL Blitz, I don't need NCAA Blitz.

I think that only shows up on Freshman and Varsity difficulty setting.

This... Game..... Looks... Amazing!!

I have been on this site for 8 years and I have not seen something this impressive with football gaming since I have been here. It is almost surreal that NCAA 14 looks this much different from NCAA 13 from a gameplay perspective.

It really makes me believe that this coordinator-cam. (Panned slightly back, and tilted up) is what is making a ton of the difference. Dont get me wrong, EA has clearly put a ton of work into cleaning up a lot of gameplay issues. But it seems almost impossible that they could make the animations, and overall gameplay this much smoother in one year.

I am beginning to believe that this new camera may in fact be the game changer. Maybe, EA games just dont look as good zoomed close, and this camera angle really alleviates alot of the wonky animations that have plagued this generation since 06'.

I posted something similar to this in the Madden forums, and I think the developers need to take a serious look to get this added into Madden 25 as well. At the very least, for next-gen.

Maybe this isn't final build.

they shoulda had this camera view a long time ago to hide some of the ugliness of the animations lol. i've actually wanted this sort of camera view for years and i'm so happy they finalllllllyyy added this. i enjoy watching smaller players for some reason...can't stand close ups of plays, especially when animations don't look that great. plus u get to see the entire field. i love it.

It probably isn't but its definitely a newer build than any of the game changers have seen (from whom we've gotten the info about the indicators only being in FR and varsity).
