NCAA Football 11 Blog: Pregame Entrances

05:57 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."

Lets be real if authentic was not their some people would still be mad. Can we move this to the authentic thread please

I know I might be delusional, but the mascot thing proved to me that the devs are reading these boards and using our feedback. If they can tweak mascots based on community feedback I don't see why they can't tweak these entrances to get closer to the real thing.

you're still not getting it. if not for what you call nitpicking changes would never be made to the game. are you saying that the game is 100% perfect and needs no tweaks or changes? you need to understand that hearing that things aren't completely accurate is exactly what the devs want and need from boards like this otherwise there's really no point in having a forum like this.

I don't mind people talking about how the entrances are not authentic. Honestly, it seems the only way that EA actually makes changes is when enough people post about it.

One thing I don't like is that it still seems like EA doesn't do their homework when it comes to presentation. TD celebrations are still unrealistic. Colors are still off. Entrances are "sort of" complete. Last year they touted presentation and it was wind socks and crappy nets.

Either way, Miami running out of that giant helmet in the smoke gets me pumped up every single time I see it. I'm sure it will be no different in the game cause it just looks so bad ***.

Playing Miami Vs. VaTech will surely be fun every year.

Wow this is my second time watching this. (first time on my iPhone) I must say it looks MUCH better when it's bigger and in better quality. That Penn State white out looks INCREDIBLE and I swear I could feel the intensity of the Ohio State players when their arms were locked.

This looks great.

LMFAO!!!! Don't even get me started on the "nets", dude. Okay, so the year before (09 version) and all versions prior to that we have some invisible wall the ball bounces off of after the extra point and FG attempts, so EA says "Hey, you know what? This doesn't make any sense! Let's fix it", so they make "AWESOME NEW FIELD GOAL NETS!!!!" one of the major highlights of the 10 version.

So what does EA try and pass off as a "field goal net"? Some ultra-fake 4-bit pixelation circa Madden '98 that supposed to be their so-called "net", but really is only some cheesy thing that goes IN FRONT OF the invisible wall, and doesn't actually catch the ball like a REAL net would. So on long field goal attempts, we STILL see the ball bouncing off an invisible wall and THROUGH the net!!!! LMFAO!!!!!

This has me really optimistic going into the summer as I wait for this game to come out. Hopefully, they have UT coming out of the tunnel with the smoke, american flag, and Big Bertha!(:

Exactly. THAT is the kind of posts that should be on this thread. All of you bashing EA for bad entrances are judging a video that came out 2 months before the game is released. They dont put something in the game and leave it alone until release. They're going to review the entrances and make all the necessary tweaks. So chill.

The AFL package on Madden was allready on the disc. downloading it just unlocked it so unless EA is able to get the uniform designs in advance and put them on the disc before release day than you won't be able to download any uniform updates.

# 372 MaizeHaze @ 05/10/10 10:29 PM

I tend to think that perhaps ea put all of the bigger things(espn, team entrances etc.) out early so that they could get feedback, impressions etc. so that they can have time to go back in and fine tune the things that they need to. The guys at utopia mentioned in the espn podcast they they where able to make suggestions on additions and changes to the espn integration. Hopefully that is the case!

# 373 moylan1234 @ 05/11/10 03:33 PM

I don't know about those games chapdaman I just know the example of the AFL packages on Madden you gave was a case where it was already on the disc. Also, with teambuilder last year we were told that they couldn't add different helmet/uniform designs after release even if they wanted to because those patterns weren't on the disc.

# 374 MileHighMadness326 @ 05/15/10 03:49 PM

This looks great. Really getting pumped fr this one. EA missed the best one though...

# 375 rhodes17 @ 05/17/10 10:30 PM

It would be raw if they put in the longhorns godzilloration video before they enter but that won't happen.

# 376 SevenArmz @ 05/26/10 03:57 PM

Glad intros are in but....if i decide to wear away Jerseys, is my intro gonna match? Its going to kill the buildup if its the same home Jersey no matter what I pick for the game!

Raw? Umm, I dont think I have ever heard that term used in this sense before, unless of course your somehow trying to relate this to uncooked meat...

Perhaps the "godzilloration" video has something to do with raw meat?

Um...god-zill-a-tron. Not godzilloration. I have no idea what that is. Sound it out, and you won't spell like a UT fan. Thanks for playing.
