NCAA 11...will they fix it?

The only bad thing about this game is how the CPU QB can go robo and complete every pass towards the end of a half...if you're good enough on defense you can stop it, and if you are good enough on offense you'll still outscore them. Whoever the most skilled player is in a game will almost always win unless they have to many turnovers - like it is in real life. I was just saying if you compare the game to the past versions of NCAA, this one is much smoother and more fun.

I guess I won't realize how bad it is until I'm 50 or something, though.

I'm under 30 and I hated NCAA 10. Luckily, I was able to return it for a full refund. I hated how CBs would jump my WRs' routes before they even make their cut. Recruiting was basically the same besides adding more pitches, which was so exciting. I also hated how in my dynasty with UT and OSU, OSU had to play Penn St and Michigan on the road the first two years(I didn't get to a 3rd but I think it was the same).

I don't understand how there's so many problems with a game they basically repackage every year. It's not like they start from scratch.

I dislike 2010. I haven't played it enough to notice the game play itself.. Recruiting and the camera angles turned me off to it. And, for the record, I'm in my 20s.

It' will never be "fixed", but 11 will be an upgrade... 10 was the carryover from 09 in every way possible.

I have just as many gripes about the gameplay, but I get my revenge by beating the hell out of the computer.

I just hope EA is paying attention. I know atleast 10 guys who have bought NCAA every year for a a long long time not buying it next year when it comes out. They may have their minds changed after reviews but NCAA 10 is an abomination.

I enjoy the game solely because of our online dynasty. We have a good group of guys who are good at the game which makes the dynasty competitive and fun. Online franchise will never be able to touch the online dynasty aspect of NCAA.

I do not disagree that online dyansty with good gameplay would be ideal. Online Franchise is good for gameplay but you cannot really build a team due to your own sweat. However, the gameplay in NCAA 10 is so freaking horrible beyond horrible...it needs new adjectives describing it. I would actually and gladly start an NCAA 09 dynasty if a group of people were serious about sticking it out.

Online franchise has potential. They should make computer settings for their drafting ability. I would set them low thus you could build more in the draft. Also, they need to allow draft day trades. Trades of draft picks need to be activated online as well. Offline you can do this stuff but Madden needed something to do for the next year.

Madden 10 is by the way the greatest game simulation football game ever. It is a major leap in gameplay ability. If they get rid of the fumble animation(pressin buttons fast to recover disputed fumbles=lame) it would be closing on complete awesomeness. The NCAA 09 crew did a great job creating it and NCAA 09 had been the best previously. I can only hope and pray that crew gets put back on NCAA. The madden crew should from 09 and NCAA 10 should be given their papers and never to be employed again.

And as stated above, 'AA 11 will be a copy of madden '10. To my knowledge this is how it has been for 5+yrs(as far as the engine).So to the "masses" that "aren't gonna buy, '11 bc they don't like '10", you should use M10 as a guide as to if you'll like AA11.

I hope you are right. But this year they did something different and actually switched teams. And I am not sure they way you describe is how it works exactly. Madden had been very bad for a long time until this year. Maddens had allowed super players for a long time. It was elimnated this year. In Madden 08 for exampe you can loft pass it to Chad Johnson deep he will catch it 8 out of ten times even if triple covered. It will suck in to him. Moss and others had the same ability. It was designed to keep the casual gamer entertained. He can just pass it to his favorite players and they would perform regardless of play call or defense. NCAA never worked this way and now Madden does not.

I have heard what you are saying from others but I know from EA publication that they switched teams this year. Thus the madden like NCAA and the NCAA like Madden in gameplay. The article said they did just to get fresh ideas on the two games lol. I believe it was to create online franchise as that team had just created online dynasty. For NCAA 10 it was more like pooring toxic waiste onthe roots then anything fresh.

I dunno how you could play '09 again - yeah '10 has a lot of jacked up things - but the speed and the bad CPU angles made the game unplayable. You could recruit a 2* RB or WR with 96+ speed and dominate - he'd be every bit as good as a 99 overall skill guy - that's what I did when trying to build USCjr in the online dynasty. You'd be a threat to take it the distance every play and kick returns got out of control with one of those players.

I loved 09 when I had it, but then I replayed it a couple weeks ago for fun and couldn't do anything. It just felt weird, and I couldn't get used to the controls and camera angle again.

There's also the times when your pass goes through the DB and somehow completes it. Or, with any WR in my experience, some passes suddenly "jerk" and stick to the hand of a reciever. Def glitches or what not.

09 had issues but they were ones human players could plan against. The mega super team for a quarter then flat the next is not. It made it interesting in an online dynasty. Anyone could recruit and challenge the lead dog. Like Bass said you just needed to get speed on O. Speed on D was needed but not the same you needed CBs and safeties who knew what they were doing. I speedy RB was the great equalizer. It does not compare to MAdden 10 in game simulation but I enjoyed it.

I dont know about dominate as Bass as I remember did not. In fact, Harry dominated their dynasty. I found it odd no one beat him.

I noticed this too.....if you are up by 2 TDs on the computer, they will start throwing picks like crazy (and likewise if you happen to have the bad luck of getting down early).

You are an old soul...now go share your knowledge with others your age. I cannot understand how the ones in the dynasty in here keep playing. Everything you said is right on and been noted by my friends and I many a time. Do you play Madden? I did not until this year but it is rather good this year.

I've never really played Madden. Maybe I'll try it this year.

harry dominated for the same reason bass stated. there was so much speed with fla that nobody could do anything to stop him. the bad angles players would take on defense to tackle made it that much worse. harry's a good player, don't get me wrong....but florida being ridiculously overpowered was a main reason for his undefeated rampage in the '09 dynasty.

ncaa '10 isn't that great of a game to begin with, but it's still a better game than '09 IMO solely because speed was the trump card for everything.

Duck...why did it not even out in recruitng after several years in the game? NCAA 10 is in no way a better game not even close. It just makes you guys feel better because the best player is not dominating. Generally, one or two players will dominate those dynasties or franchises. It is what it is. The reason no one person can dominate NCAA 10 is that it generates winners based on who gets momentum..who gets the glitch in their favor etc. It is not a human controlled outcome. Just read over your own threads comments..time after time you guys state how that was weird this happenned...that player X was dominating then all of sudden player Y dominated..lol...are you catching on yet? It is not the players it is the programming. I played in a dynasty and lost the first year and won the next three years in a row in NCAA 09. If you are recruting right no one player will dominate because they started with a better team. Speed on D was the trump btw...you could defend in that game if they had speedy WRs and RBs. The real key to that game on O was getting the right O linemen.

fla was (and still is) ridiculously powerful in recruiting as well. they literally reel in 5 stars like it's nothing.

don't know about that. volball has pretty much had his way with us almost every single year in the '10 dynasty. bass does dominate the east for the most part, but volball has been the best player in the dynasty and has always been the one winning the sec titles and national championships for the most part.


i do agree somewhat about the programming, and while i think there are some things completely outside the players' control, i still believe that the better player wins the game most of the time.

I was just about to buy NCAA 2010 for ps2. Is it really that bad, or are you all a bunch of geeks who like to nitpick? That isn't rhetorical. I really want to know.
I played NCAA 2007 on XBox every once in a while, and just came upon a ps2 (since they don't make games for XBox anymore). I loved the 2007 game. Is this one worse than that, or will I still like it if I liked the other?
I'm not looking to play online or anything like that. I just enjoyed the dynasty mode of 2007, and will probably just play with that feature on this one too.
You guys have me wondering if I should even get it at all.

i have no idea about '10 on the ps2........the last game ncaa game i played on the ps2 was '08 and it was pretty good. as far as their respective consoles go, the gameplay and the features (aside from online dynasty) are much better and smoother on the last gen.....or at least the last time i played them they were. i would like to say that they still are.
