Yes they are going to have wvus. Can't remember which video Ben said this on but it was said. I know they said all combats from last year will be in one way or other

Based on what a Gamestop employee told me a few years ago, one of the things that Gamestop uses to decide whether a midnight release is worthy is the number of pre-orders at a given store. So it may be self-serving to pre-order instead of just showing up. Personally, I'd advise pre-ordering if you know you're going to show up either for midnight release or on release day. Nothing can really go wrong with pre-ordering, unless you decide to go to a different store.

Just traded games in today. Got $143.00 the store manager gave me 40% on all my trades got NCAA Football and Madden paid, plus I had some left over. Pretty good deal for me. Bout to reload on games for the year.
It's here!

Not exactly a pre-order deal, but according to this week's Toys R Us ad when you buy NCAA 12 you also get a McFarlane CFB series 3 figure of your choice for free (SUBJECT TO AVAILIBILITY).

Hell, I'd buy it just to get the Woodson one and then return the game.
Nice! Someone want to get Suh and ship it to me? :)
If I end up getting the game there JB I'll try to get it. Wife got a gift card there so that is the reason I am even considering buying it there. Chances are since there are a boatload of Steelers fans here Troy will be gone.
That is if they even carry them all.
That thought crossed my mind too.Quote:

Proof that good things come to those that wait:

It's kinda hard to make out (I really need a new phone), but the guy at TRU somehow gave me the discount twice. Total for NCAA 12 + Tebow = $48.72.
:)
Nice discount there.
Got the $20 Amazon credit myself, along with the Walmart recruiting advisor thing, and then also the Woodson McFarland offer from Toys R Us on the way. The Walmart preorder is sitting at my house waiting, so the other two copies will just get returned to some local stores when they arrive. :)
Similar situation with myself. I pre-ordered from Wal-Mart, who had the best pre-order bonus at the time, and GameStop for the uniforms. Then the Amazon bonus offer came through and I ordered a copy from them. On release day, I had 3 copies of NCAA 12 in my house. Well, I just returned the unopened GameStop copy (after using my uniform code of course) and the unopened Amazon copy to Wal-Mart. I got full refunds for both. So, I now have NCAA 12 with the recruiting advisor from Wal-Mart, the Pro-Combats from GameStop, and $20 credit waiting for me on Amazon. I LOVE capitalism sometimes.
Sidenote: The recruiting advisor is pretty awesome. He hit me up on a 4-star RB no one was recruiting so I'm about to sign him at a 1 star TB team with a lot of D, D+ pitches. The advisor also told me that if I spoke to someone on my board (which I was going to do anyway), he'd instant commit if I called (which he did).

Never used it before, but I might toy with it later after a couple seasons of an offline dynasty.Quote:

A 4star RB would be a HUGE get for a 1star team and instantly help get to the top of the conference.
I didn't pick up the game yet but my wife had pre-ordered it for me through Best Buy. I received an email with the 5 Star QB code from Best Buy and i unlocked the five Pro Combat Uni's after sharing the demo, but for you guys who know better than me, will all of the pro-combat uniforms become available at some point? Even if it's DLC.
I don't know, but I sure hope so. I have never really cared about pro combat uniforms in the past, but with Coaching Carousel, between an online dynasty I'm in, and doing probably two or three different personal dynasties, I have no clue what teams I may end up coaching at in my careers with Coaching Carousel, so I want all the uniforms possible so I can use those pro combats in games if I end up at one of those schools on a coaching stop.
Yes. I don't know the time-table last year but they were all available eventually for those that didn't share the demo. As well, Ben mentioned in one of the livestream events that all of the uniforms would be unlocked at some point. I almost guarantee they will be free and probably like a month or two down the road.
How do I get the DLC content via Gamestop? I preordered the game and picked it up on release day. I still have the receipt but have been unable to find where to use any code that's on it for anything.
Can anyone help me out? Thanks
You really think they'll be free? I'd expect them to be paid for. They uniforms aren't owed to anyone. They're extra. If EA is smart, they won't charge more then $1.99 but I can't see them being free. I'd love to be wrong about this (even though I already have the uniforms).

I'm just going based on the uprising that the NCAA community would cause if the people who pre-ordered at Gamestop got the uniforms for free with their pre-order, but the rest of us who either pre-ordered with someone else, or those who bought it off the shelf on release day, are forced to pay money to get those same uniforms that the Gamestop people got for free. Yeah, EA would almost have to release them for free. If EA thinks they've come under fire for gameplay issues, they haven't seen anything yet from what the uproar about the uniforms would cause.
someone be sure to tell me when this promo crap ends and we can find out how to get the other uni's.../ I want the Maryland brown helmets etc
I'm not sure which helmets you're referring to, Ram, but the "promo crap" is only the five Pro Combat uniforms from last year that you don't get from sharing the demo:
- Virginia Tech
- Ohio State
- Boise State (Blue Jersey)
- Pittsburgh
- TCU
As far as I know there aren't any other helmets or uniforms in the game aside from those and the ones that are on the disc/unlocked by sharing the demo.
