Right now the plan is to go with AA - I'm contemplating Heisman but with the number of user vs user games we'll be playing and the fact all of those will be on AA I'm inclined to stick with AA. As for game speed, I haven't really gotten a chance to play with sliders yet, I've got the next 8 days off from work to figure all of that out however.
Actually if you set the OD to Heisman, user vs user games should also play on Heisman.Quote:

This is good to hear. Pass Commit may actually be needed this year, based on some of them coverage gaffs I have been hearing about. I wont have the game until tomorrow. Im not a fan of impressions threads since for every post you read about complaints, you get another one praising..so I guess I'll need to see for myself. :nod:Quote:

Or at least since before NCAA 12 released.
I finally got a taste of the demo....loving it
I used these Heisman sliders from OS early this morning to see how a game would go. http://www.operationsports.com/forum...n-sliders.html It played extremely well and realistic. I did not once feel like I got "cheated" by the game or saw any kind of speed cheat. I played Michigan vs. Alabama first game of a dynasty to test these sliders and ended up winning 17-13 I want to say. Season pass has expired and I haven't checked to see if my disc has arrived from Amazon. Once I do I will post stats.
If anyone wants to play a game with our teams, hit me up.
I'll be down to play a few games later tonight.
Tomorrow night I could go later, unfortunately I work at 5am tomorrow so I will be going to bed in a few hours.
I'm good to play whenever. Just let me know, I'm on PSN right now.
I will be on late tomorrow night if anyone wants a game. About to go to bed because 4am comes early. :(Quote:

If anyone is up for a game to try out our teams I am on.
OB - when are we getting started?
Now that rosters are done, I'm going to try and get the OD up today so everyone can at least get in and start pre-season activities. I'm looking to start week one Saturday - that sound good to everyone?
Sounds good to me.
Works for me.
I'll be going out of town tonight and won't be back until Sunday evening. I should be able to do preseason from the web tomorrow during the day, otherwise I'm good.
Good here.
Sliders and stuff, we have determined what we were going to use?
:nod:
Also, would like to know what snoop asked plus the other things like gameplanning, talking people into staying and whatnot.
I'm working on sliders today, that's what may cause the delay in getting the OD up by tonight. As for game planning I'm torn on since its hard to administer.
Saturday is good for me too.
Heisman or AA?Quote:

Not sure if that is or isn't something we want in this OD but that is my 2 cents....ok 1.5 cents :D
OB, you should be able to start the OD and just make sure you change sliders by Week 1.
Personally I don't care on the gameplanning stuff. I don't think many of us actually abuse the bad ones. At least from the past 3 years worth of user games I haven't noticed it
Agreed, it's not something that we should have to worry about with this group.Quote:

From what I've seen playing randoms online and one friend who always has strip ball on aggressive...gameplanning seems to not be a problem this year. People are penalized for having strip ball on aggressive or big hits on aggressive. I have seen RB's break more tackles as a result of defenders always going for the big hit or strip. Also it's no longer a guaranteed strip for the defense. There is a greater risk to using these than last year, so I'm for allowing them. Take that risk if you want to, especially if your players can't play that style.
Based on Escobar's experience, JTS might be the only significant concern.
I still don't like conservative ball carry... I haven't tested it but I know in the past it pretty much eliminated you fumbling at all. To me, if you're in a situation that you're worried about fumbling, you should put your best ball-carrier in.
Yeah without the defense having aggressive strip turned on there is basically no way you will fumble the ball with carry set to conservative. Even then it only happens once in a blue moon and they actively have to be trying to user strip as well.Quote:

BTW, what game speed are we looking at using?
I just played a game with the sliders Escobar posted a page or so back and they weren't bad:

I've played a few games with those sliders too. Haven't had any complaints with them.Quote:
