You're pretty much screwed in the off-season unless you have only 3 guys or less left on your board.Quote:

One thing that is really important on defense this year with the new running mechanics is not hit sticking constantly. I have had to train myself to not hitstick unless I have plenty of help to make the tackle should I miss. It took a lot of growing pains for me to start to get this through my head and I still find myself reverting back to my old ways on occasion.Quote:

I earned victories over USC and Arizona this way but had the cpu had their possessions I probably would have lost both games simply based on momentum.
One thing I dont like is that on RTG the opposing team scores A LOT. No matter who I play.Quote:

More later
I'm not sure if it's an issue yet or not but I have notived in my last four dynasty games that each of the cpu teams has had a double injury at one position (eg two RT's, two LE's 2 MLB's, two HB's. Maybe it's just a weird anomaly??? The only injuires I have had all season are to my #1 and #2 rb's.
I play this game,.. ive played like 24 games against other humans.
right now the fact is this game sucks compared to even the last 3 years. The players move all sexy, they cut,they gather..but theres a lot of warping and shifting again and they have no freaking awareness on defense or persuit ability.
it just plain sucks unless you're 11 years old or dumb as a rock.
I am enjoying the game but I do agree with one thing you said. The more I play the more I see there is A LOT of warping this year as compared to previous years. Sometimes the physics are amazing and sometimes they are absolutley wonky.Quote:

I've upped human tackling to 60 and lowered cpu rb ability to 40 and its helped some, but overall, i think the game rewards the cpu ball handlers a tad too much. i'd like to see more realistic outcomes in situations where an expected player should win (ie: 230 lb rb @ full speed not getting knocked on his ass by a 180 lb corner @ full speed).Quote:

1. Player warping... far to frequent for my liking
2. Super sim seems borked... again
- far too many cpu pancakes
- minimal time of possession, etc.
3. logic.... the top five tackle leaders in the country were all on my team???????
4. complete lack of penalties regardless of slider tweaks
5. zone D can be unplayable at times
6. the cpu does NOT run the ball enough
7. there are no fumbles in the game...???...!!!
8. read option can be overpowered at times
9. Normal is far too fast for coach progression... I am now at level 9 (one season in)
10. IMO this game desperately needs an injury slider patched in
... grumble, grumble... gray facemasks.... grumble, grumble...
Okay... I'm ff the the carousel.
First move in coaching carousel.... Penn St fires Bill O'Brien and he is replaced by Charlie Strong, had coach of 90ovr #4 ranked Louisville. Fourth move, Bill Blankenship, HC of Tulsa is hired as HC of Missouri since they fired Gary Finkel. Fourth move, Cal fires Sonny Dykes and hires NIU head coach Rod Carey.
They seem to have reworked the logic in coaching carousel and it is a lot better IMO.
by yourself-against AI the game can be fun. But against other people, they destroyed it.Quote:

Put a hit stick on him and separated his shoulder. The chunky looking back up came in and gouged me for a TD and 76 yards on the ground. Not to mention 13-16 throwing.
In this Dynasty I'm messing around in with Colorado looks like I'm going to get the #1 QB in the country. Going to be fun using him.
LACES OUT!!!!Quote:

1.) I haven't really seen any player warping except for when downfield there seems to be a suction blocking to stop the last defender from making the tackle.Quote:

I play as a DC in my offline dynasty and everytime there is an incomplete pass the stat banner pops up with one of my defenders and credits him with a tackle.
6.) That may be a result of the sliders you are using. I'm using snoop's and the cpu runs the ball plenty if that's their team style. I can see a difference in playcalling between running teams and pass happy spread teams. Especially after playing the same team next season after they have had a coaching change.
9.) Yeah you should definitely use slow for progression. Normal is pretty much for those people who think the game should be easy and they shouldn't lose a game. These are also the people complaining about the recruiting being real hard when it is actually more realistic. I've had no problem signing 15-18 prospects the past two seasons as Texas State.
I still haven't seen this gray facemask issue and I play alot with Michigan, which is one of the teams I have seen mentioned as showing up with them :dunno:
:D
Well, it I guess was bound to happen. Played hours of RTG and some Ultimate Team and many offline solo dynasty games with no problems. Start an OL dynasty with a bud back home and now in our second season we are both having crashes. I had two today during the fourth quarter clips. This issue crippled last year, TW14 and now it appears NCAA 14. Sad, cause like Tiger this one is a lot of fun IMO.

Some of these freshman walk-ons are in the high 70's!!!
Anyways, still loving the game but here is my biggest concern... PROGRESSION is too much too quick. My starting QB started as an 85 and ended the season as an ovr 94. In the offseason he went up by 5 points and is now a 99. Almost every player increased between 4-7 points in the offseason.

seems to me...sometimes you hit :ps3cir: to transfer to another player and they simply just fall down :fdown:
crap...just crap. A guy does hurry up online and you have no time to pick a play or set up with a late menu/playbook :fdown:
I don't get why you crash so much. I rarely do in Tiger, maybe 3 times ever. Never have in NCAA.Quote:

Thinking about it all the crashes have been while online, tourneys, dynasties etc. NCAA13 was not fun enough to put up with, 14 is much better and I hope it won't be a big issue.Quote:

It's strange b/c it seems to work fine offline vs the cpu.
Man if I could play a lick of Defense this game would be dangerous lol
Getting use to the movement on Defense but damn it I'm only one person on the field
G I'm still waiting for my rematch :D
the dreaded gray facemask

This has brought this particular dynasty to a halt and I won't join any others if this is some permabug :fp:
