The game looks great and I really like it, but there are a few issues I have seen so far. I have seen the CPU come out and kick a field goal that hit the upright but it still went in and the game did not count it. Sometimes the cut seen of the team celebrating on the side line has the wrong team on the wrong sideline. The announcers some times say you fumbled on the last drive when you did not. Other than the few issues that the game is going to have I love it.
Much tougher on Heisman. The CPU run game is about right in being dangerous and on the verge of being unstoppable depending on who you are playing. The CPU RB, at least the couple I was playing, might break a few too many tackles. Or they just overrated those RBs severely. ;)Quote:
Anyone have any thoughts on how heisman plays vs AA?
The CPU playcalling is pretty damn good, and you don't see nearly the amount of 'why did they call that...that was pointless' stuff than in years past. AA human run game is easy compared to Heisman. Huge difference there. Human passing seems about the same except more drops on Heisman.
The CPU passing game is tight. They'll shred you and catch a LOT of tough passes.
Human pass rush needs to be bumped up, as does human running game. CPU FG power needs to be dropped, as does human FG accuracy.
CPU pass rush and blitz are really effective and fast.....if they get you in lots of passing situations, expect your QB to get hit a lot and quickly. CPU pass rush needs to be turned down a touch.
I have some early slider adjustments that I'll post tonight with quick comments as to why in the Balanced (Heisman) slider thread in the slider subforum.
Thats good to know because just like years past the AA setting is just too easy. I have tried Hiesman in the past and it was just cheap. I wish one day they will make a difficulty setting that is based on attributes of the players. I would really like to see your slider adjustments for the hiesman setting. Last night I was playing as my TB team and they are pretty crappy. 60 accross the board (D) and I beat New Mexico 28-6 then I went on the play Nebraska in the "sea of red" and it was 3-0 me until the 2nd quarter and I should have been getting my but kicked. One thing I noticed, the penalty sliders are very touchy this year I turned them up to 60 and one drive had 5 consectuive holding calls.Quote:

Funny, I just lost my last two games on AA. One to the home team and I was overmatched the next game I was the home team and got shutout 17-0 by an equal team!! :D:D
That'll teach me to talk about AA being too easy.

2. Fatigue~ yes it works but you really need to play with the sub sliders to get some rotation of the players. I still would like to see more subbing
3. ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL CPU RUN GAME (without major slider tweaks). I'm sorry, I know a lot of you don't see this as an issue but other than ONE game vs Wisconsin I have held every cpu RB (AA) below 50
yards. The cpu rush is consistent, but poor. I will be making major changes today to the run game sliders for the cpu
4. Human rushing is far too easy. I LOVE THE FEEL AND CONTROL OF RUSHING THIS YEAR BUT IT NEEDS TO BE TONED DOWN VIA SLIDER TWEAKS. It's too easy to tear off an 80 yard run.
Observation:
* turing CATCHING TO 55 for CPU and HUM really gets rid of a lot of the dropped balls!!!:))
Questions:
1. I'm still not sure about auto-run. I have it off but I might switch it to on. What is the commuity consensus?
2. I love slow gamespeed but I wonder, has anyone played around with speed threshold?
1. I've done nothing but used it and I LOVE it. Lets me focus on hitting the hole and making moves and not having to worry about when and how to use speed burst as well.Quote:

Well I went looking for it and could not find it at all. I'm hoping it was just a little hiccup in the game. I'll let you guys know if I come across it again.Quote:

I'd really like to know what people think about this setting. Which do you prefer on or off? How about some of you older gamers who have been playing NCAA forever? Does it seem like cheating? Or am I just being a cranky old geezer, who says "Back in my day, we had to hold the sprint button down to run faster, and it was freaking X instead of your fancy R2 button!"
Gamespeed:
2. I like the default normal settings. I don't think the game plays too fast or two slow on Normal. And I'm 38, so you KNOW my reaction times ain't what they used to be. Hahaha!

ratings should matter. Not whether or not i'm a speed trigger master. It may as well be a racing game or Sonic the Hedgehog.
That seems to only happen online, but if you're on offense, you can just fake snap it and it will go back to normal. If you're on defense, unfortunately you're SOL.Quote:
