NCAA Football 14 Review (360/PS3)

[GisherJohn24]

i wish they would mention how the horrible presentation really affects the atmosphere. No reviewer out there seems to really care they've been using the same fight songs from NCAA 2002. Some chants were thrown in here and there, but overall, doesn't feel like a true college game yet.

Another year and no NCAA for me. I have started putting some defenses together but the game just requires:

1) Way too much micromanagement
2) Slide Protection is hosed. I should not be sliding to the numbers and someone comes free on that side on a consistent basis from a five man rush and I have six in to block.
3) Guys are still relying on 2 man nano edge pressures and not playing football and it WORKS.

To be fair, they did improve some stuff. But when I look at their improvements they don't appear ORGANIC to me. For instance, I look at the run game and say cool. But then when I hit the replay and notice the DL does not even move until the blocker is all over them, then I'm like yeah, that's how the run game is improved. Damn defensive line doesn't move until the OL is all over them. I'll finish playing up the season pass. I don't want to get negative on their effort, I'll just end by saying the game is not for me. Many will enjoy it, but it's just not for me.

Should be 8 for gameplay not overall. 6 sounds right

I can't remember if it was Millennium or Chris that said reviews generally lag a year behind. Last years offering wasn't good but wasn't awful from what I could tell. This year seems much improved but it's getting hammered due to last years effort.

I don't know where else to ask this. Does anyone know how to edit your coaches record?

From the main menu: team management > edit coaches.
