NCAA 2006 sucks.

[UTVOLFAN]

I've finished 3 straight undefeated seasons on Heisman. Finishing first in offense and defense. I'm going back to '05 where at least Heisman was more difficult.

[Vols4life]

You know you can change the A.I. settings and make the game harder right?

[milohimself]

I can't finish first in offense 'cause my special teams are too good. Hefney is a return beast when you get some good blocks.

I'm still playing on AA, I hate the kicking on Heisman. Is there a slider for kicking? I haven't really looked into it all that much, but I'd play Heisman then...

No matter what I do it seems on AA I average 600 yds of offense, whether I pass or run. On defense I give up about 30 yds rushing and 160 yds passing... not very challenging.

Of course, this is playing as the Vols who can get any recruit we want. Have you tried playing as a crappy team to increase the difficulty? I'm sure its much harder to win as say, MTSU or UK.

Went undefeated with the North Texas Mean Green.

I don't think the game sucks, but it is very easy...even on heisman it is a bit "un-challenging" at times.

I know what you mena. I have to adjust the sliders. It is a bit tooo easy. I just killed florida on hesiman. 59-14 is a bit crazy.

[milohimself]

It always seems to me the Vols are able to absolutely murder either Florida or LSU.

But you guys have to remember, and I tested this out - USC and Tennessee are by far the most ridiculously good teams in the game. Both teams are so much better than everybody else it's not even funny.

Doesn't it seem like an inordinate number of INT's are taken back for a TD on this year's game? Or is that just me . . .

Also seems like the QB's have less time to throw this year.

[milohimself]

That's true, I can't tell you how many times I've been sacked between the fake handoff and when the passing HUD comes up. It usually takes 3/4 of a second. At least it makes me mean with a d-lineman. I can rack up 8 sacks in a game. B)

[rwemyss]

That happened to me a lot at first. If you actually run a little more it fools that lineman more often than not and you get a chance to rollout and throw your pass. ;)

Yeah, if you throw a pick it's goin back for a TD. The defensive player seems to become Walter Payton after a pick. I've run a lot back myself too though.

they just tinkered with the difficulty i think b/c in the past people have had problems finding a difficulty setting that works for them. it is always either too easy or too hard. but yeah they didnt do any better on this game. i'm apparently not as good as everyone else on here lol, but still, its too easy on all-american, but i get worked on heisman. for those of you that can run up the score on heisman, all i can say is find friends that are as good as you, or challenge the top guys on Live, cause they won't make the game difficult enough for ya.

[milohimself]

That's why they made the sliders... Even on standard Heisman, I don't think they are cranked all the way. Just change the sliders if you want an in-game challenge.

As for playing against friends, either LAN or XBox Live but not on the same TV. Figuring out which play they called is always way too easy.

Yeah, I don't like playing one on one on the same TV when compared to XBL, cause of the whole play seeing thing you mentioned. But I dont know, I still love playin 2 on 2 on the same tv, mainly cause you cant play that on XBL yet. Plus 4 people talkin smack and ticking each other off is much more fun in person than it would be over the internet lol.
