• NCAA Football 14 Demo Details & Impressions

    EA SPORTS has released the details of the NCAA Football 14 demo which drops Tuesday, June 18th. Included in the demo are three matchups, Virginia Tech vs Alabama (Chick-fil-A Kickoff), Ohio State vs Michigan, and Oregon at Texas A&M. The quarter length is limited to 3 minute quarters, however the user will have the ability to change the rest of the gameplay settings including difficulty and gameplay sliders. New this year, users will be able to try out the additional camera angles in the game: Regular, Zoom, Wide, & Coordinator.

    In addition to the three matchups, users will also have access to the new Nike Skills Trainer which attempts to teach users the finer mechanics of the game including how to run the Read Option as well as some of the more basic functions of the game such as proper passing with the lead mechanic that was added in NCAA 13. Finally, users will be given Ultimate Team giveaways as incentives for playing and sharing the demo.

    UPDATE - The NCAA Football 14 demo is now listed as available on the Xbox.com website and can be queued for download on your console on this page (Gold members only).

    UPDATE 2 - The NCAA Football 14 demo is now available on PS3. Search 'NCA' from the Store to find it or queue it for donwload on your console on this page.

      New controls (360): Press and hold X to use Heat Seeker Tackling (Tap X to dive tackle and RS for advanced tackles)
      LB is now change hands with the ball
      B button now goes to defender CLOSEST TO THE BALL! This is big for me.
      Press AND HOLD Y to go for an interception. Did not know you had to hold it, maybe that's why I'm a terrible user pick guy.

      I've only used Oregon so far and they don't have any Pistol.

      Looks like I'll lose my first game... Oregon 0 TAMU 17. I blame it on me messing around finding the new option plays but sincerely, the CPU is considerably better than last year.

      That was the word we got but I am playing All-American for both CPU offense and CPU defense. However, the User vs User difficulty is set to Varsity so not sure if that maybe overrides it. I'll test and see.

      Have you rebooted your console? Have you tried queuing the download from the web? http://tgt.pw/ncaa14demops3

      That's not even showing up for me now. I can't see it either. Rebooting a third time now.

      We were told that a week or two ago by a community manager, but it was the first time we had heard that. I would double check the game/user difficulties.

      Only shows up when the Coach Cam is up. Besides that, I haven't seen it.

      With all difficulty levels set to All-American (CPU Offense, CPU Defense, & User vs User), the Read indicator still shows when you bring up coach cam.

      Heisman doesn't make a difference. .....as someone just said (hitstick I think) it only shows when viewing the play art stuff (checking your play) I would have still hoped it was disabled completely for higher levels...its a dead give away on who to read and will make it easier (its already not hard) to run the option
