NCAA Football 11 Blog: Pregame Entrances

06:57 PM - May 4, 2010 by mr janny

EA Sports have posted another NCAA Football 11 blog. This one showcases the pregame entrances.

Quote:


	"Pageantry and Tradition; two words commonly used to describe what separates college football as one of the greatest experiences in sports today. Contrary to popular belief, not all of the action takes place on the field... and one of the hallmarks of collegiate football is how you get there. From Howard's Rock at Clemson, to the "Play like a Champion Today" sign at Notre Dame, to the roar of the crowd as our favorite team takes the field, we've recreated some of your favorite traditions before kickoff and brought them to you like never before. As I wrote in my last blog, we really wanted to strengthen our authenticity and presentation in NCAA 11. And to do that, we knew pregame entrances were a major component of building a great foundation. We've created run outs for some of the most popular schools based on who you pledged your loyalty to in last year's title, including Clemson, Notre Dame, Miami, Nebraska, Florida, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia Tech, Florida State, and more."

Thanks for posting that video. I almost forgot how big of a douche bag Rey was.

I don't know if this was already mentioned but does anyone know if Georgia Tech's Ramblin Wreck will be incorporated?? That would be sick.

So I was wrong... but still, I am not going to get over it. If they're going to call it authentic entances, then make them authentic.

Love the entrances!!! Now, can we get a Nation Championship Celebration too??????????

# 286 TracerBullet @ 05/07/10 01:56 PM

I get the feeling that if they didn't put the word authentic in front of it people would yell about the entrances not being completely authentic anyway.

# 287 canes21 @ 05/07/10 02:54 PM

I like the fact we have the entrances. Don't get me wrong. I'll probably be watching them every single time I play the game.

I am just dissappointed EA isn't making them completely authentic. I highly doubt its difficult to replace the American flag with a flag with the U. And I doubt its too hard to add five male cheerleaders who run behind Sebastian with flags that have M I A M I. would it really take the framerate down from 60 to 30 because they changed a flag texture and added 5 new characters to the scene too.

Especially when you consider they already do that when you score a td! It doesn't seem like it would be that big of a deal to also add that to an entrance.

miami doesn't enter the same way every time. they have come out w/ the usa flag in the past. i'm guessing these will be more like composite entrances- taking stuff from every entrance that ea could find in their films and on youtube and design an entrance that came as close as they could to incorporating all of those elements.

Some of these guys posting a very large vaginas! Omg EA is doing a great job at trying to give us what we want this year, I even think we'll get everything from the survey that was leaked a while ago, yet people still find something to complain about.... At the end of the day this is still a video game lol....

# 293 canes21 @ 05/08/10 12:06 AM

All they had to do was look at our entrances from the past couple of years and see it was this. We don't change every game what flags are carried. We stopped doing the whole American flag a few years back.

Like I said before, I am glad we got these, but if you are going to try and add them, why only make them 70% accurate? Its like they listened to us, but instead did it their way. We are seeing the same thing with ESPN presentation. If we want a real representation of college football, then we need to come out and tell EA how it is. We don't want them to add their own flavor to things, do it like its done in real life. We don't need the EA version, I know its an EA game when I start it up....

# 294 MEAST26 @ 05/08/10 12:32 AM

The American flag thing isn't a huge deal to me, I just didn't understand where it came from. I remember it being used around 9/11 I believe, but outside of that I didn't think we ever carried it. But like I said it's not a big problem or anything, I'm just excited to see what the whole thing looks like and what all they did for everyone else's entrances.

As for putting the baseball field dirt in the game, there's really no reason to since it's only there for the first few games anyway.

# 295 canes21 @ 05/08/10 01:06 AM

Yea, i don't care for the dirts on the field. Thats there 3 weeks maybe? But I just don't understand what they were doing with the entrance. i mean, it is close to what we do, but its not close enough to be called authentic. Its like calling all the uniforms for Iowa the past years authentic when the facemask was always wrong. Its just not right and could easily be avoided.

# 296 canes21 @ 05/08/10 01:44 AM

Yea, I know that. Its clear in both videos I posted too. I made a mistake... But its not my job to post how to make an authentic entrance, but it is their job to make an authentic looking entrance...

# 297 MrMiller84 @ 05/08/10 01:52 AM

I haven't been this excited about NCAA in a very long time.

Consider what we have had for the last few years. I say this as respectfully as i can, but just shut the hell up before they take out team entrances altogether...again.

I highly doubt they'll take out the entrances because I am asking for more authentic entrances. I am not bashing EA for adding in these entrances. Like I have said numerous times, I will probably watch them every single game and I'll enjoy them, but I would really like to have real authentic entrances.

We've complained about a lot of things on here and the devs have interacted with us and improved their game. Imagine where would be if no one complained about the lack of physics, the outrageously overpowered offense, the numerous uniform imperfections, etc.

I'll most likely enjoy the game, but I am going to keep asking for them to fix these over and over. I want them to be realistic. That doesn't mean I hate EA and their game, I just want it to be the best it can be. I don't see you bashing Odogg for asking for dreads over and over. These entrances are my players and the flags are their dreads.

# 299 canes21 @ 05/08/10 02:05 AM

I would also like to point out, we've said it over 10 times already. We aren't upset that Sebastian had the American flag. We are upset they called these authentic when they are truly not.

# 300 canes21 @ 05/08/10 02:21 AM

You can be fine with that, but I want it to be 99% accurate. I am fine with every layer having the same facemask, but there are a lot of people who would not buy the game if that happened. We all have differing opinions and thats why the game is shaping up to be like it is. The devs are trying to please everyone this year.
