    I agree. Those are the sliders I'm using and they're better (though I still beat the shit out of the CPU on a regular basis...)

    Use FistOfRage's Heisman sliders if you're tired of beating the computer. They're on OS. In fact, they're close to making me blow the game up. I had to turn down INTs. INTs on Heisman are freaking ridiculous.

    I just done playing NCAA football against the CPU for a LONG while. I'm tired of dealing with stupid bullshit. It's the same shit as always, instead of actually getting outclassed by the CPU (like it adjusting to what I'm doing and actually stopping it) it just causes some stupid turnover from a dude that leaps 10 feet in the air and one hand intercepts the ball or something equally ridiculous. It's just REALLY stupid frustrating shit especially since the CPU continues to refuse to do anything but play the fuckin' run. It's hell bent on stopping the run to the point where I can throw the ball 50 times a day no problem. It's just stupid.

    The cpu does overplay the run, particularly on early downs. It's stupid. I'd love to see it fixed through tuning along with having them blitz less. It's tough to run the spread with 4 WRs and have the cpu line up in a 4-3 and stack the box. So you audible and throw the ball to move the chains. It just isn't common sense to leave a slot WR uncovered.

    I had my first freeze ever in NCAA 11 and that's without tuner #4. Just before halftime against ND the game went into super slow motion. I paused it and then when nothing was really happening hit the PS button. Everything went black and it didn't come back. Not sure if this was a PS3 glitch or a game glitch. I was trying to hot route at the time. That sucked to lose a game this morning to this.

    The third patch certainly helped fix the sliders for the running game. Barely beat Nebraska at home and their RB had 24 carries for 207 yards. On one hand I was frustrated and on the other hand I was happy. Still won 27-24 on a late FG.

    Tonight I played NCAA for the first time in over a month. It's not that I don't enjoy the game but work and family (+ prep for another baby) have been huge on my time right now. However, tonight after painting the baby's room I played a play now game. I won- the score doesn't matter really. What I will say however is that after not playing this game for awhile I was impressed when I turned it on. For all of the issues with the patches this is a huge upgrade on this gen of consoles. Playing hour after hour; day after day this summer I think I started to take this game for granted. Maybe tonight I will get back into my dynasty...

    I'd really like to see more animations for spectacular catch (are there any at all). In terms of QB accuracy people wanted more balls to simply fall incomplete without anyone touching them. I think the NCAA team has done a good job with that although crossing routes are still too accurate imo. But every game in real life we also see balls that are just off the WRs hands. It's a little too high or just out of their reach. They may jump or dive and get their hands on the ball but no catch and the defender didn't really affect the play. I'd love to see more animations that reflect this. These great catches often result in the WR hitting the turf for zero YAC. This might help improve the realism as most people probably average too much per completion and attempt in the game. I don't mind this because I think there is a certain fun factor we have to have in a video game and realism doesn't always translate to fun.

    Yep, there are quite a few. Get a receiver with 90+ SPC and you'll see a good amount of them.

    Yep... I have one on each of my OD teams. I love throwing it to them, especially if I can get them to leave their feet then there is a good chance one will trigger.
    Here's an example of one (fifth highlight).

    That was a nice catch. I don't see many of those but I'd also like to see the equivalent animation in terms of a drop.

    Yeah, I had one of those the other day with one of my Buckeyes in my offline dynasty. DeVier Posey, actually. Exact same animation.

    Side note ... did you know you can change the order of your highlights? When I have videos that I really like, I tend to move them first.

    Is it a specific type of receiver that uses those animations? I tend to go after possession receivers and I don't recall ever seeing a catch like the one above???

  14. #34
    if im not mistaken the catch rating (possession guys) dont necessarily have to have the high spec catch (animation triggers)... correct me though

    "E"

    There's not a specific type... it's just based off of the Spectacular Catch (SPC) rating, generally the player needs 90 or better.

    That would explain it then. I don't think I have had one receiver with spec catch that high in NCAA 11. Maybe I will go out of my way to recruit one in the offseason.

    has anyone ever come across the problem of not being able to enter practice mode within a certain Online Dynasty?

    in one of the ODs I'm in(one that I'm the Commish of), I can no longer use practice mode(I can play the games just fine and do other Dynasty things). it starts to load, but the playbook never fills in the loading screen and the description box below it usually ends up showing random symbols(#, &,@, etc...) and then will freeze the system. it's been like that for at least 2 dynasty weeks. we're currently on week 12 of year 6.

    The other OD's I'm in are fine and I can also enter practice mode from the main menu fine.

    I believe that PapaLonestar & Oneback have both seen this in our OD... I believe it cleared up, though we had to reload the OD a couple of times so that might have been what fixed it.

    Even after reloading the issue was not fixed, we were unable to go into practice mode until the next season.

    if thats the case, it's not so bad for me. my games are done except for the bowl game. Although it would be nice to be able to practice with my team on the bye weeks that I have coming.
