Also on punt returns I was using Cliff Harris from Oregon and I felt like it took a solid 2-3 seconds for him to start running after I pressed the stick in a direction. Anyone else notice this? Is that supposed to happen?

Thanks to whomever brought the FG attempts up to EA.
I was able to get a decent amount of blocks by watching the holders head movements and timing it from there. In the Demo this is fixed and he doesn't let on when the snap is about to happen.
JeffH did you mention this? :D
Played one game earlier. I lost!!!! 10-3 to Alabama. The first play of the game (post return) the cpu RB goes 73 yards for a TD. I was stunned. Overall a fun game. I may use auto-sprint on during the actual games. The only thing I didn't like were the changes to the playcall screen re: scrolling for plays. Looking forward to a few more game stonight.
Haha yeah they need to adjust it. That, and when I usually get hit while throwing, the ball just pops out and goes to the ground like 3 feet in front of me. I saw where that RB tried to do that. I feel like the RB's try to go to the sidelines much too often instead of cutting back underneath defenders. Maybe he was trying to eat clock, it there was still quite a bit of time left.Quote:

Another thing I noticed is that from the time the kickoff play is picked to the time the cpu kicks the ball off, if we are using custom sounds it looks like we are going to have all of 2 seconds to hear our music. Here's to hoping this is only because its a demo.
:D:DQuote:

Stumbled upon this play on and its a broken play every time and the defenders don't even come after the quarterback.
I hate you, and no. You never told me how the F you did it, otherwise I would have!Quote:

cut scenes of the coach are fine because you can see the coach you created, but all this talk all year of band locations and crap and it seems a waste to me to see these end of qtr scenes of some silly swaying band guys in generic team colors..it really adds nothing to the experience.
nope, Ben wasnt there, and it wasnt very professional haha just 3 guys shooten shit with no substanceQuote:

He was there for the 1st 15 minutes of the show. And they just aren't 3 random guys.....all those guys are EA game changers. Shopmaster, Coach, Madscientist. Plus AntonB be on there most of the time.Quote:

havent gone through all 15 pages, but i really like how shifting your linebackers, moves their zones around on the field.
This is very nice, I like this a lot.Quote:

Took me about 10 minutes, maybe a little less, around 10am this morning.
Nice. Just threaded the needle on a pass inside the 10 yard line. Four defenders playing zone, threw a bullet right into the tiny ass hole to my receiver in between all four and waltzed in for the touchdown.
Oh yeah, 7 for 7 when it comes to returning the opening kickoff for a touchdown. :D
I haven't noticed myself tackling any different. I have always been a hit stick guy and I haven't seen myself whiffing on any tackles yet. This was something heading into the demo that I was interested in given the feedback and vids we saw.
What are the community day group seeing when it comes to using the hit stick vs the tackle button? When compared to what you saw down at EA.
I had a terrible game as FSU against Alabama due largely in part to whiffing on hit-stick tackles. Gave up an 87-yard screen pass for a touchdown because I tried to hit-stick with two defenders and missed badly. It's not as though you can't defend if you don't use the tackle button; just that the CPU will take advantage if you're hit-sticking and missing more than in past games.Quote:

Thanks paakaa I'm only about 4 games in but I went from having this as a big worry for my defense to feeling a whole lot better already about it.
Saw the CPU defense with 11 seconds left come out in a zone cover 2 and I was in 5 wide and I just hot routes my right slot to a streak because he was uncovered, result a TD because there wasn't anyone within 20 yds of him. The SS covered the in route from the TE
Can some of the guys who have both consoles please make clear what is so different about the ps3 version? Also is TGT getting the ps3 or 360 version tomorrow?
Just wish the CPU would have came out and protected deep on that play but they didn't for some reason.
Sorry couldn't edit my other post to add that.
Mostly PS3 versions
Most of the users here will be getting PS3 though I think there are a couple getting 360. That said, there certainly are other attendees that will be getting 360 versions.Quote:

However, far better challenge than last years game so far IMO.
To be honest--despite all the noise about the PS3 looking worse than the 360 version--I haven't really seen anything to make me feel that way. Now, I only own a PS3 so I don't have a 360 to compare it to right now, but all but one of my games at the Community Events were played on a 360 so I do have experience playing on both consoles.Quote:

After a couple games:
-Pass blocking needs just a little tweaking. Too much pressure too quickly and too often for my taste.
-Liking the cpu run game a little better but still dont have a great feel for that.
-Returns obviously need work.
-Excited for tomorrow! :-)

One other small thing that has been with this series for long enough is plays where u cause a fumble from a sack or anywhere else. On the screen it says DT 92 with a -7 UF TD return or something along those lines. Can anyone explain why this happens?
I know we have all seen it on kick or punt returns to where it says -65yd return and such. I'm just lost as to why this still happens and there may be a good reason that I'm clueless about as well right now. Just not sure, anyone care to chime in?

I have both consoles and in my honest opinion the 360 version seems a little cleaner visually and doesn't studder as much on cut scenes like the end of quarter highlights. Again, its just my personal opinion.Quote:
