NCAA Football 11 Video: Interview with Ben Haumiller, Shows Onside and Squib Kick

05:34 PM - April 27, 2010 by Solidice

Nothing majorly new, but you can get a look at the new onside kick camera angle towards the end (it doesn't show it all the way though). You can see that the Squib kick is finally back.

I hated how in years past, if it was near the end of the half, the announcers would say, "And they should just squib kick this one and run out the clock", and I would be like, "I would, if the game actually had an option to!", lol. I'm glad they finally put that back into the game, hopefully to stay.

Did anyone notice that about 1/3 of the way through the video the defensive playcall screen had the 4-3 and three variations of it? The middle one (can't make out the name of it but it's below "Normal") resembles a 3-4 look. Was this in last year's game? I thought only Madden had some formations where you could give a different look (ie 4-3 personel and a 3-4 look or vice versa).

looks like last years. 4-3 normal, 4-3 over, 4-3 under.

It may just be me as I am at work so the vid isn't as big as I'd like it on my screen... but....
This "locomotion" doesn't seem even remotely close to what was in the locomotion explanation vids EA showed in blog...

Could just be just me but I don't see as extreme a foot plant or slowdown in the player cuts. Not even close really...

I guess I was just hoping for defensive playbook improvement. I know Madden had the predator I think for Baltimore where the OLB lined up in a 3-point stance. I'm hoping for something similar this year for NCAA. Packages help but I'd like an improvement here.

That isn't the crowd emptying, it's people sitting on the grass. They have the same thing for teams like Missouri and Navy. That area never gets filled up like the bleachers do.

They have had the crowds empty out since '09, but it isn't very realistic. Sure, they leave if you are winning big, but it's a very specific point total - I worked it out to being around the 28 or 30 point margin - before they finally leave. If you are up by let's say 21 or even 27 with less than 5 minutes left, the stadium will still be full because you didn't hit that specific mark, when most of the crowd would no longer be there in an actual game. Also, when the game is over, it would be nice to see the place empty out as you take knees to kill the rest of the clock like they do in real games. It's a lot like the fans in the crowd themselves: A feature that was added, but never really improved upon.
