I saw it once tonight in 23 pass attempts. Mostly deep balls. So it is in the demo, albeit in a limited way since tonight was the first time I've seen it. However, I noticed that passing is incredibly easy in the demo, even on Heisman with pass coverage sliders up to 100. At one point in a game of ORE/TAM I was 18-23 for 455 yards an 6 TDs and 0 INTs (played offense for both teams). Now, I didn't crank up the difficulty to Heisman with the sliders up until the middle of the 1st Q, and I had already gotten a drive in with both teams, so the numbers could be skewed. However, I was 9-9 with the TAM QB.

EDIT: Ok, I may have spoke too soon. Passing with VT against Alabama on Heisman with max sliders isn't easy at all. LOL

EDIT 2: Alright. Alabama is amazing. That wasn't fair. I had to quit in the 2nd Q because I had already thrown 3 picks. Back to fix the sliders down to a more reasonable level. Got a little too big headed there for a bit.

Pass interference on default heisman settings called against the CPU?

What speed threshold have you guys been using? Everyone feels so slow with the default one. There is no separation and guys are constantly getting caught from behind.

Glad the default game speed seems slower than the past couple years I think it makes the animations play out more realistically

If gamer's are waiting for a Developer to make it work according to what they want, it will be a long wait. Xan has provided an option to give "YOU" the gamer, more control of your game (provided the saves are not coded differently) so that you don't have to con't to kick the same dead horse in frustration. Next-Gen games will go through the same process these console games went through, as well as the xbox and PS2, as well as Super Nintendo, as well as Atari and Colecovision etc... It's always been that way. Hope you change your mind and give the Editor a test. I believe you'll be more satisfied than what it seems you are now. Visit the Dynasty Editor thread if you get a chance.

Where is the dynasty editor thread? Ive done searches and cant find it? Do you need anything special for the ps3 to activate the program to make these adjustments? Thanks this is the first time im hearing of this thing. Can you tell me more about it?

Aw man...

Ran empty backfield four verts with Tex A&M at the end of the half, and the SS let the inside WR running a streak run right by him... Twice! Covered about 75 yards in two plays, and the guy was wide open both times.

Tough to tell what exactly what was going on without replays, but I was actually leaning towards getting this game. Now it's a definite wait and see. That kind of stuff should not be happening, ever.

The issue has less to do with the safety play and more to do with the CPU play calling. I've had a few games where the CPU was in press Cover 1 in a "end of half" situation and got burned deep. But when the CPU is in a proper coverage, they seem to be handling it correctly.

That thought crossed my mind, either way my conclusion is still the same: that kind of stuff should not be happening, ever.
