I don't know if this happened last year, I didn't play that game much, but this was awesome:

I was playing Clemson/Mizzou in the rain. I drop back to throw, watch one of my receivers make his cut on a post route and he slipped and fell over.

Honest to God, after this demo I'm in love. It's fantastic.

(Side note: Does anybody think the demo's main menu looks a ton like Backbreaker's?)

I'm pretty sure slipping happened in 10, because I'm pretty sure I remember overthrowing a receiver who slipped right as the pass got to him. I think they turned up the frequency of it happening though, it seemed really uncommon in 10.

Don't know but i would use player lock if the camera wouldn't swing around. I hate that. Wish they would add an option to keep it the same.

It was in both 09 and 10

The animation is awesome one of the best in the games

I'd just to say how much I LOVE running the ball in this demo. Holy crap. The blocking AI may not be perfect 100% of the time, but it works most of the time, and it's a very satisfying feeling to be able to use your blockers and pick up yardage.

Damn right. Time to get back to my bread & butter. Can't wait.

HOLY CRAP!!!!! I actually blocked a punt for a safety.
I was playing as Ohio State,and had sacked Harris on the 1 yard line,setting up the punt. I had called "return middle" (as I can't remember the last time I got a block) and lo and behold, a guy bust through the line and blocked the kick..I was so ecstatic I can't even remember WHO it was.

I'm sure sliders will correct this, (at least I hope)...but the deep ball IS way to effective,Pryor had TD passes of 69 and 72 yards...The Buckeyes won 37-17

I know it's only 2 instances,but against man coverage my receivers both had 2-3 good steps on the corner,and these weren't any kind of out and up's,they were both fly patterns.

After thinking about it some,I did use the pump fake,I'm just thinking out loud here,but maybe that would have some impact on the outcome?
But then again....if the db's back is to the qb,he wouldn't see it in the first place....aw hell nevermind

it's been said several times that the demo version doesn't have the ability to store highlights beyond the previous play so the play of the game is always the last play of the game. It won't be like that for retail.

That's awesome! I don't think I've ever blocked a punt, in any football game. I really hope that I'll finally get to this year.

The last time I blocked a punt was in Madden 05 for the original xbox
So I've had a serious drought.
Also,just to be clear,I wasn't controlling the guy who blocked it (would've been better) but a blocked punt is a blocked punt

Why is it that the CPU pursuit angles are so freaking fast in the game?! I mean they catch up so quickly

Is the demo only available in the US. Sorry if this has already been asked btw.
 
# 1553 Shazor4 @ 06/20/10 10:27 AM
I downloaded the demo and it was black and white. Did this happen to anyone else?
 
# 1554 Earl1963 @ 06/20/10 10:32 AM
This game has gott'n a lil more fun after playing more, but the animations are quite dated.
 
# 1555 Dawsons_Creek @ 06/20/10 11:08 AM
I think the demo is good. Very smooth gameplay. In past years I would only controller a LB or SS on defense, but I think this year it might actually be fun to be a DT or DE. I felt like I was in control of my players on the d-line, not so much in past years. Also it looked like O-line and D-linemen got an upgrade in player models, they just look better to me.

How do you hand the all of to the RB in the read option? Every time I run that play I can't hand if off and my qb has to run.

Thanks

Yes it does, exactly like it, going left to right instead of up and down. I wonder who copied off who, lol.

When will be ready to download for silver accounts?...Im gold in Europe but unfortunately demo is not available in our market.

By the way, its already out on PS#. Im halfway through my third game, Missouri vs Clemson, and I've had the same errors in all games. First of all, whenever you throw the ball deep it lags a lot, and the receiver will never get it, he'll just outrun the ball or simply not even try to catch it. The other one is that sometimes there will be a bunch of defenders on one guy and they won't tackle him, he'll just run against them, and they won't tackle him. The first error has completely screwed with two of my games, the Missouri vs Clemson and the Florida State vs Florida, where I have had various guys open deep and they just outrun the ball, or even though they are open, they don't catch it.
