NCAA Football 13 - Quick Clips

You're also someone that impatiently buttons-through everything though. I don't. I watch all of it. I'd bet I'll watch these too.

Actually not true. I watch all replays. And will watch most of the intros and the opening cuts until the intros become boring. And if they did like a halftime update I could get into that. But when I'm actually in game I don't really want to cut away unless it is to watch a great play that just happened and definitely don't want something that takes me away from the game at hand.

Ok. I was basing that on you saying you button-through intros and such. The good news for you is that you'll be able to button-through this too (though it will be more difficult to do, think of it as a new mini-game for you).

And there is the issue. I think the info that it's providing is nice and would like to hear breaking scores, but I don't want to sit through a cut scene to get it. And I'm sure that most people are sitting here saying yes this is awesome, but I would be interested to see if after a couple of months people are still watching them. If they are not, then it's actually not a good feature.

do these update scores change every year between the same 2 teams or will they be the same score update every year?

and will the final scores in the updates actually be the final scores recorded in the dynasty at the end of the game/week?

The updates are of the games that have been simmed for that week. They are not pre-determined, or canned, in any way. They will change according to what is really happening in your dynasty. The final scores you see will be the final scores at the week's end.

So Ram, let me get this straight. You're asking if these are going to be truly fictitious scores, the game is just going to make up scores and for some reason give you a random update on a game that has never happened?

truly fictitious scores ....

Steeler had it more right when he said canned... I'm saying I wouldnt be surprised if you noticed after 3 years that its always 24-17 at the end of the 3rd qtr in the USC -Oregon game etc.

its a video game I dont expect much in this area nor do I care because i'm in my game on the field..the updates will be a nuisance after a while possibly to me

Yeah, you're onto them, EA better just come clean now. Those fools thinking they could slip something like that by you. Yep, every game in the ticker/updates for every week of every season will follow a quarter by quarter pattern of 7-3 after the 1st, 17-10 at halftime, 24-17 after the third and 31-24 for the final. Every single CPU game in the history of your dynasty will have the final of 31-24, hope you like that score, because you'll see it a lot.

dude, i'm not assuming anything or bashing anyone, I'm asking a question is all

I see what Ram is getting at. Like in the past you would only be updated on your HB's rushing stats at very well defined stat marks for instance: HB hits 100 rushing yards, show stat line.

In talking with one of the devs for an hour or so about some of the new technology they're getting you should start to see far less of this. Their old technology made them only display things at certain bench marks (100 yds, 10 catches, etc...), their new technology should allow them to be more dynamic with info in general (which im assuming should apply to the studio updates as well). For instance, they can now say things like: HB X is an important player, what are his stats right now?

They obviously can still call up benchmark stats but now they can do other things as well.

Obviously this is a new system & you need to incorporate it over time with the commentary to support it and what not but it's gonna be neat to see them use it more in the future.

I actually don't think that is what he was getting at based on the original question and asking if the scores change every year.

But that is really cool info to note and a definite welcome change.

Well, with a reply like that, the sarcasm is just oozing from that post, so it's pretty simple to see I was just giving you shit and being sarcastic as hell.

well, yeah, but i've been sarcastic and still meant it..if you know what I'm saying LOL...whats Penn State's gonna be ranked this year in game ? a really strong B or B-..or a really strong C+ ?

I really like the cut away stuff. I'll definitely watch them. Any word on an improved halftime show with Rece?

Their old benchmark system felt very canned and made the presentation look very weak imo. You rarely saw stat pop ups, rarely saw game tracks which was a great idea but poorly utilized, and we had no dynamic commentary that discussed season long stats or how a player did last week. I really hope this is truly improved in NCAA 13.

Eric, I think if the studio updates come at times of drama or when I don't want to be distracted, I'll agree with you that I won't like the cut away. But if they come at "logical" times, like when a real game would be cutting to commercial (end of quarter, halftime, after a change of possession), then I think they'll be okay. It's going to take some getting used to though.

Yeah exactly. I could easily handle quarter and half cut aways.

Yeah, I would guess for certain between quarters and at halftime. Looks like there's gonna be one after the opening kickoff to give a review of what's happened so far in the day before your game. And then they could sprinkle some in here and there either between field goals/extra points and the ensuing kickoff, or after various kickoffs and before the offense takes the field.

It would be a big fuck up if they put them in between plays in an offensive series. That would destroy the offensive momentum to have an update suddenly pop up after a big play in a drive that's rolling down the field.
