I'm not sure if this is the right thread but this question didn't seem to fall into any of the categories clearly. For years my 2 brothers and I have played co-op where all three of us play on the same team (even back to the PS2 days where we would drive all over trying to find a multi-tap). When I fired up the demo, multi-player co-op was not available. Please, please, PLEASE tell me that this is only for the demo and that multi-player co-op will be available in the retail version!
Are you asking about 2 players on the same console, 2 players online, or more than 2 players in any fashion?Originally Posted by Pantera1968
Any improvements or success running the flexbone? Last year I could run it against the CPU but got shut down by a stacked box and blitzing from Humans. Part of the reason because the option passes often resulted in sacks? Are they improved at all? Overall impressions of the flexbone offense would be great. Thanks.
2 players (actually 3) on the same console. Offline dynasty.
Has anyone had a chance to check this out? I'm talking about 3 players, same console in an offline dynasty.
Thanks!
I'll try to check that this evening for you but I would expect it would be the same as it was in NCAA11.
Yes. You can in fact play with at least three (I assume four) players on the same team both in a Play Now and in a Dynasty game. I assume not in Online Dynasty but we don't have access to online right now so I can't test that.
Awesome! You made my day. Thanks man!
Compared to the demo how different do the following things feel in retail?
1) CPU D blocking down passes over the middle
2) Cover 2 safeties being able to cover WIDE side of field
3) D-line and others getting over-pancaked
4) Injuries
Thanks
Any differences with the Return Game in the final build than the demo? Last year you couldn't get any yards on returns and now kickoffs are broken with ease. Is there more balance? Do converage teams stay in their lanes or are they all running in a pack towards the return man?
I wasn't sure where to post this so please move it if this isn't the correct thread. I'm interested in seeing if gameplay stats like pancakes, half sacks, and assisted tackles are properly recorded from actual gameplay. I know that they are recorded from sim action but I'm wondering if the new collision system has added more atkls and half sacks. We all know that user controlled linemen actually executed pancakes but they were never properly recorded, so I want to see if this bug was fixed.
One quick thought about gameplay as it pertains to comparing the NCAA Football 12 demo to the retail version of NCAA Football 12...
None of us had access to the demo until it was released on the respective consoles today. Chances are most of us will only have ended up playing a handful of games in the demo before the copies get in tomorrow. With the ability to release live tuner packs for the demo, gameplay will probably change in the demo; while some of us may hold onto the demo and keep up with the tuner packs, chances are that we won't be on the same page as everyone else with regard to how the demo plays.
Just something to keep in mind when you ask us to compare the builds against one another. Not saying that we won't be able to answer those comparative questions, but gameplay may end up being quite fluid because the demo will have access to updates.
My biggest complaint about the demo is the number of pancake blocks. On Heisman the cpu OL gets a ridiculous amount of pancakes. It's awful. Even on AA the Bama OL gets too many. Did you guys see this at your community days and what are your thoughts on this area in the demo and retail copies?
It was similar to the demo in April. In May, it was much better.
I've read a few guys on OS who normally play on AA say Heisman is really good and it feels good. They say the middle of the field is defended better, CPU runs the ball a lot better but unfortunately the same stupid CPU long Fg attempt is still in there. Can anyone here comment on Heisman this year? Have the developers ever thought about adding another difficulty level to the game as many guys seem to prefer something between AA and Heisman.

Thanks Steelerfan. That's a relief because sliders aren't going to be able to fix that.
Just to add to that the issues with pancake blocks and the win/loss nature of the lineplay seen in the demo has been brought up to the guys at EA and we will update if we see the same in the retail copy.
For gameplay, many would like to know about the return game. If you guys could shed some light on what you are seeing on the retail side of things I'm sure the community would appreciate that very much.
I'd also like to ask about the DLine pressure on the retail version. I know Kwizzy mentioned in the Demo Impressions thread about he'd like it to be toned down slightly. I was wondering what your take is on that with the retail version Kwizzy? Anyone else can chime in on this as well as a comparison from Demo to retail.
Yeah I will definitely be looking into that. I like that it's easier to get pressure I'd just like to see it take a little bit longer before the defenders come completely clean. This also goes back to the win/loss interactions that Oneback referred to. I'd like to see more interactions that aren't so cut and dry in every aspect of OL/DL interactions. I know I have personally included a chunk about that in all of my feedback this year so hopefully it will continue to improve in the future as well.
