I'm with you on this one Matt. I believe that they will have it fixed in the retail. I did see some instances of the db glitch popping up in the demo, but it was seldom and nowhere near the frequency of last years disaster.

However, if it does show up in the retail, then I lose all hope and trust in EA. It's been talked to death over the past year now, so there is no excuse. I'm optimistic as it stands now. Let me rephrase, cautiously optimistic!

Thought the different camera views might be just a tad closer to where you could see the receivers off the screen - not as far back as it was. I just hope overall it will be better than the past ones. It needs to improve each year and not take steps back.

game over verticals work great was trying to get excited but of course its your typical EA trash that we hope represents college football sim wise and it doesnt

Same here. Even in the demo you can tell the DB Glitch was toned down significantly, so I feel great that it'll be gone in retail. Last year I could exploit it whenever I wanted. This year I really had to search for it to get noticed.

I honestly have not seen this DB glitch folks speak about. I've seen no evidence of it at all in any of the 40+ demo games I've played. I'm guessing that's a good thing.

I've settled in on these changes now....

Normal Speed
Heisman Difficulty
Speed Threshold 20

Only Slider Changes...
Both QB Accuracy at 5
Both INTs at 35
HUM Tackle at 60
CPU Run Block at 45

Haven't focused on Special Teams yet.

That's it....moved Pass Coverage for both back to default 50.

Played 10 games on these and, barring any major changes in the final build...these will be my starting point when I get the game.

I am happy about the Kick Return game this year. I actually had the CPU return one for a TD. It is in this video.

I'll have to give those a try; we always seem to be on similar pages when it comes to sliders and difficulty.

I hadn't seen it either in the demo, but that's not going to stop me from believing it is an issue for other people - that is the key. It's not just about me - it's about everyone enjoying the game, and seeing this place flourish with anticipation - not nervousness or apathy. I know you can appreciate that with all the efforts you've put towards the series in the past, AA

Does the Demo come out for Silver Members Tomorrow?
