NCAA Football 14 Impressions Thread

Some more notes from my Unranked game.

Had a play that was awesome but unrealistic. My Qb Jeff Driskel or #6 trucked a D-lineman and a LB on the same play before being tackled. And I mean he knocked both them flat on there behind, but he does have a high break tackle rating and truck rating.

Another play I was running to the right and was going to take off but saw I wasn't going to make it so I decided quick to throw to a Wr a few yards in front of me and my Qb under hands the throw. Like Brett Farve in the snow type of under hand throw, and it looked really sweet.

I'm an offline only player and I've played on Heisman forever. I'm an OK player, but not great. I started a dynasty with my TB school (cupcake roster) and lost 70-0 Alabama.......and I had fun. The CPU missed some throws (on 5 for CPU ACC) and I couldn't get anything going. It played like it should have.

Granted, it's only one game, but it was fun and nothing big jumped out.

Menus are much faster and smoother though I don't care for the tiled look.

I don't think they should have labeled it as a feature, but I am digging the new recruiting. I still don't like they tell you exactly how far ahead or behind you are with other schools and exact point totals, but the recruiting is more fun.

The best part about recruiting is being able to reorder prospects much quicker now. That's a welcome change.

All in all, it was fun so far. I know the presentation isn't exactly what we wanted but more screen wipes, better cut scenes, and I thought the camera shots were much better.

It's not perfect, but it seems to be a step up from last year.

I don't over analyze every fine detail of a video game, so with that said, this is hands down the most enjoyable NCAA title that I can remember.

I played w/LSU.

First game was at home against UVA, just because I hate UVA. I won in convincing fashion, 35-10. I just wanted to get a feel for my running game, and pretty much ran the ball 60-65% of the game. UVA did have about 270 yards of total offense, and over 100 yards rushing combined between their RB and QB. That was the first time EVER that the CPU has rushed for 100 yards on me - felt good, AND most importantly, the game flowed well and felt realistic.

Second game was against Alabama in their house. It was how it should be, it was a dog fight for four quarters, and came down to the final possessions. It was 17-17 going into the 4th quarter. I intercepted McCaron and then drove the ball down to score the game winning touchdown with 2 minutes remaining, final was 24-17, and was just an amazing video game experience.

Online gameplay can be a bit choppy at times, but nothing too drastic.

So I am having fun (360) but the main problem I have is that it seems to have trouble maintaining a stable framerate. It jitters before and after the play, and sometimes during.

For those that played Madden 13 on the Vita it kinda reminds me of that

Zoom camera makes the game 100% harder, and I love it.

Sorry to butt in ... back to impressions!

I just thought about this as well are any of you guys even bothering to play on Heisman or is AA the difficulty again this year
