NCAA Football 14 Impressions Thread

[JMD]

I've played 4 games so far. All American setting with custom sliders. I'm still testing sliders to get the most competitive game. So far I like the game for the most part. I have seen a few strange things, one being I took control of my CB to try and intercept a pass, when I pressed the Y Button (360) My CB warped 5 feet from the WR and it was a easy TD for the CPU. It was a long bomb and those two players were the only two in the area. Only happened once but it was strange.

The other thing that's bugging me is the lag that happens sometimes in the HB when he first gets the ball. It's like he stops for a split second before taking off. The last game played I was the Huskies CPU was the Trojans. I was up 38 - 29 with 1:14 left. The CPU had the ball and no timeouts. It was 4th and 1 and they went to the no huddle and spiked the ball. WTF? Spiking the ball on 4th down. Not impressed with that one. Also some of the commentary is very repetitive.

I've also seen some very cool stuff like the CPU's QB breaking away from my DE and chucking a sidearm pass to a WR. It was cool to see him get out of trouble like that and it looked fairly realistic. Some of the broken tackle moves by HB, TE, and WR look nice also.

Overall the game looks nice and feels smooth. Will be playing all week end and will come back with more thoughts after I play more. I think I'll try playing a season.

Also I can't import my Maine Black Bear team into the game. I'm guessing because it's not the retail version.

Played an unranked match vs Thebleedingred21 and you couldn't tell it was an online game with how smooth it ran.

PS3 version here w the ugly gray fasemasks. Game is good otherwise in many aspects but this is kind of a big disappointment to me considering FSU is my favorite team and they have such a wide fan base.

What system? I played on xbox and all of my games seemed laggy with drops in framerate.

Pros
- I like the graphics

Cons
- After you intercept a pass, your player runs backwards until you can re-adjust from the change in camera view. Really annoying.
- Players fall down randomly and it looks really weird (infinite engine needs work)
- The pre-game is generic and shows highlights for the game that is about to take place
- TD's aren't really that exciting
- Online seems laggy.

Can anyone else playing on PS3 confirm if it is showing in your trophy list or not? I wanted to check out what there was, but I can't get it to show in the list. Thanks.

Last year was really smooth for me but not so much so far today.

I only play online.
