I love the demo so far, so I hope everyone does take this out of context, but there are a lot of glitches I have noticed so far. I didn't bother reading the entire thread so these may be repeats. Also, these may already be fixed for the title release but here's a couple things that have gotten me down:

-In my most recent game the demo straight up froze on me
-While in player lock on defense I've run past the ball carrier, by just a few inches, about 10 times. I figured I got close enough to start an auto-tackle, I guess I was wrong?
-Also in the player lock hit sticks don't seem to trigger like they should, which I don't mind, but then I totally blow the tackle.
-Short lob passes still seem like "Sky Balls"... Flip, when will this be fixed?
-The "Play of the Game" is ALWAYS the last play...
-Announcer audio get's all messed up near the end of the game, I don't really care about audio but this seems pretty stupid (on a side note I hate the new audio segments they added they seem forced and out of place).
-Quite a few times I have gotten my player stuck for a few seconds on defense while I've been looking at my play and the ball gets snapped.

Once again I'll reiterate that I love the demo so far the new camera angle is really cool and I can just see and feel a much more realistic game. I'm praying that these glitches are easy fixes for EA as I've already pre-ordered the demo!

I've forgotten a few so I'll add more when I remember, excited to play more!

I like the Game, im not very good but ill keep playing it. I usually play on Varsity and don't exactly kill the CPU outside of the time i used Ohio State.

Played Miami on Heisman. The game went to OT. I scored the first TD then picked off a pass at the 1 yard line for the game ender. Brings back memories.

I like pretty much everything with the game except the game is way to fast. Hope there is a slider for the speed of the game.

One of the best things I can say about the demo is...after not buying this game last year, I felt kinda lost at the very start. Seems like several changes have been made. Especially with how they clearly show the multitude of adjustments you can make on the fly. Very well done.

Game play wise so far, seems like if your caught in the wrong defense...your in big trouble. Which is fair. Overall, pretty pleased with what I've seen.

I really hope for team builder they get some other stadiums in the game that were used for neutral site games. I wanted to take a school like Boise State, have them play in the new Cowboys stadium, and than eventually get an invite to the Pac-10 or Big 12

I thought they removed this stuff? I'm seeing a sharper looking game with the EXACT animations from last year!!
I have played 8 games so far, and I have seen a bunch of new animations.

Why do people keep talking about how big the demo is? Last years was 1.47 gb, this years is just 1.66. Not that much difference.

There is a speed slider that will be in the retail version.

Deff still gonna need some sliders which I don't mind configuring. Overall the game is really good. Much much improved hopefully the helmets get fixed for LSU, Florida and Missouri. The presentation is so much improved hope they continue to build on it because it still needs some stuff, but compared to what we are use to this is amazing. Locomotion is great along with the run blocking. Though defense is getting abused at least in my games. My first NCAA game in about 4 months I dropped 31 on tOSU with 2 minute quarters on Heisman though I did have a pick 6. The run game is so powerful hopefully sliders will fix this. Next year I hope they build on what they have included and focus a lot on defense.

From the demo I would rate this game a B(84-86). A day one buy for me considering I'm so NCAA starved from the poor results of 10,9,8,7. Because this game is on a different tier compared to those, and they way it looks this series might be on track again if they continue to build on this. Add more presentation elements, continue tweaking AI/gameplay, etc.

Great stuff NCAA staff thanks a lot please don't be satisfied keep building on this!

is it just me, or it is really dark?

cant find anything about this on here but ive played three games, the first one froze and after the other two i havent had any messages about uniforms unlocked. i sent to friend and got the message for that, any suggestions

I hope the sliders work good in the retail version.

Playing OU v. Texas I've now fumbled the ball twice when getting ready to score, and another two times at the beginning of drives. Three of the fumbles I've been ran back for touchdowns so I'm getting slaughtered 28-0.

Figured maybe it was because they were putting a real emphasis on pressing R1 to cover up the ball, but last run I did just that and fumbled anyways.

Maybe this is just a fluke because this is my first game, but it's getting way out of hand.

I know that...but was wondering how they fared at default.

demo is not progressing past 1%. took me about 45 minutes to even be able to log into xbox live.

i can understand the traffic, but damn, this is starting to ruin my day.
 
# 757 kennethxD @ 06/14/10 09:56 PM
I love it so far.

Graphics look better.

Entrances = AWESOME!

Locomotion looks great as well.
