I think they just did this to let us always have the ball first. They always pick kick for me. Im 100% sure this will be back to normal in the retail version.

sure feels good to see big plays not ruined by suction tackles, I haven't played NCCA since 09 so this feels like a huge jump to me. very happy with what I am seeing

Anyways my thoughts:
After a few games I am pleasantly surprised. Just the removal (or drastically reduced) suction makes a HUGE difference, period. It really does make the game play a ton better.
The CPU was getting great pressure and man taking a year off from video game football = I suck lol
Overall the game is playing very nicely and so I am really interested in seeing what the retail holds. Just don't see where anyone who's played video game football for a long time would have a reason not to play the game. Yes it's not perfect but if other games took the level of critisizm that sports games do the world world implode.
The main negative I have is the DB play. Many times they still run routes before and better than the WR. On one instance the WR started breaking down (for about a 10 yard in route) and right then the DB did the in route and was (I swear) 5 yards ahead of the WR. It looked really bad.
That's about all the really stood out as far as a main negative. I can live with everything though and just hope the DB "route running" is toned down.
why are people saying that a play they keep getting sacks on are a bad thing?
Sacks are bad now?

after 2 PS3 games some quick thoughts.
Cons: graphics are ugly, I hate the transition from regular view to replays, the grass just sticks out too much.
Pros: some new animations are awesome, and u can really feel some of the hits. I love this.
Running game seems fluid and fun.
Passing game seems fun, but CPU does get quick pressure which I like.
First game I threw 2 picks on bad reads, I love it. I also had a drop pass on a deep bomb, nice touch.
2nd game I gave up a long run, but then I returned a fumble for 6 and won the game 10-7.
CPU missed a long field goal, nice.
I had a incompletion overturned based on replay, really nice.
Overall: Even though the graphics are not sharp the gameplay feels improved, or maybe the controls feel tighter.
One other complaint is the blocky text under the players is to big and bold and the play diagrams showing on the field need to be more transparent.
Could be a good year for NCAA.

Found something that really bothered me, not sure if it was posted yet. I was simming defense and was using the 'watch play' feature to watch it from a broadcast camera. Every time the offense no huddled, I was forced to play instead of being able to continue watching it.

I swear Trent Richardson must be maxed out on every single stat. I swear, hes broken off the sickest runs i have ever seen both as CPU playing against him and as a user playing with him, dude is a beast! I just dont know why they took out the ability to look at the depth chart, we had it last year. Im really liking the game. Its actually a lot of fun and just got done playing the game of my life vs bama. 15-14 FSU!! Weight does seem to be a factor when running though. All of it makes me very excited for the new features in game because i feel the gameplay, to me, IMO, is very solid.

Is it really that bad?
Seems like a tighter ncaa 11 to me
Seen a few super jumps by the cpu linebackers. The cpu pass coverage is very tight and receivers drop more passes. I'm in favor of more drops but as long as it's a realistic amount. Last year after tuner updates I feel drops were too infrequent, on the demo they seem a bit high.
Improved some things over 11 but as is always the case there will be new problems in 12 so you have to decide if overall enough has improved to buy. Right now the answer for me is no, but only because I liked 11 and there isn't enough changed for me to buy right away. If you liked 11 then you'll probably like 12 as well though.

after watching the oregon v.s. texas full demo game on pastapadre, i have made two assumptions, either texas d line and linebacking core a beast on the game at getting pressure, or getting pressure is overall easy for all the teams

pro:
-tackling is a lot better. not perfect, but pretty nice. momentum and dynamic tackles work well for the most part
-grass looks nice
- zone coverage
con:
-still a lot of warping
-like others have said, little sense of weight or control over the players
-QB play (see above)
more coming soon. it feels like 11.5. solid, but nothing vastly improved. i'll probably still get it as i like the college game better. i think it has more replay value with dynasty, recruiting, and way more teams and styles than the nfl.
Anyone had much success with the option? Seems like I either fumble or get it blown up in the backfield each time.
