A Sea Of Red

I've said before that I'm not a gamer, I like NCAA football and that's about it when it comes to video games. Additionally, I usually only buy NCAA football every other year since they usually have a big update than small update trend. However, I've been looking at the new features for the upcoming game and it looks awesome. The gameplay is what has me most excited. The QB's actually have some form and the LB's can't jump 20 feet in the air. The overall movement of players seem to be much more accurate and the tackles actually look real.

Here is the list for interest in an online dynasty:

1. cjsweat - South Carolina
2. TDDance234
3. RI - West Virginia

We can get up to 12 members, unless they've updated that number from last. Also, this is for PS3. Let me know if you want in, and what team you want.

Im in with WVU as long as we dont have to talk.

More excited about these updates for dynasty:

Sounds good. I'll update the list at the top, and I'll be taking South Carolina.

blwall - I think this game is actually taking leaps from previous ones. The gameplay is what's impressing me. Look at how the QB's are throwing the ball and the way the teams move. It looks much more realistic, not so much like guys floating to run space anymore.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad the psychic DB's & superhuman LB's are supposed to out this year. I'm just more impressed with studio updates about other dynasty games.

I love the fact that kickoff times play a part in the scores across the bottom. 3:30 kickoff? You'll see all the final scores from the 12:00 games, the scores of games going on that started at 3:30, plus start times for upcoming games that kickoff that night.

We didn’t just stop at Rece when it comes to updates either. My personal favorite part of the feature is that Brad Nessler will react to the updates and describe their impact on the national landscape and within your game. That means if Rece just updated you on a monumental upset, Brad will react. Better yet, if you just saw an update on a hated rival, a team you are jockeying for position within the conference/top 25/BCS, a team you played last week or play next week, or a possible upset in progress, Brad will talk about it. Brad’s reactions act as narration to your season, and how what is happening across the country directly impacts your team that week.

+1. They actually did something similar with the ticker on the old PS2 games. Basically, every game that shared your time slot was simulated before you played your game and it would show the progress of the game as you were playing. I've always thought the whole broadcast was pretty outdated, I think this will feel like you're watching a game on ESPN.

So, it seems the demo came out yesterday for 360 & today for PS3. Anybody have some first impressions?

Gus Condon has a CANNON

when does it come out? ill most likely be in, just have to fandangle it with my wife as I'm on a strict budget in preparation for a baby.

who am I kidding, i can buy it for the youth room regardless.

that was rueful by the way

The teambuilder feature was updated today for '13. I've added the Liberty team I created and I'll be updating the rosters tonight.

Here is a link for the one I created: http://www.easports.com/teambuilder#/sc ... 1340987244

Please advise any changes you would like. I'm considering changing the stadium from Vanderbilt's to Troy State's.

Thanks CJ errr I mean Sweatypts errr I mean Bradyfan

unfortunately i won't have a ps3 when i move I'm all for starting one for you xbox 360 guys though. just let me know.

That storm kind of put me out of commission last night. I've updated the QB's, RB's, and WR's. I feel like I did fine with the QB's and RB's but I took some guesses with the ratings on receivers. If you see anything off, let me know.

Got my copy today, haven't gotten to play at all though. Would love it if this idea happened though

Tons of glitches. It's nice but I was playing as West Virginia and a runningback glitch cost me the game against Texas Tech.

I'm going to create the dynasty today and we'll begin play this weekend.

Unless otherwise posted, the name will be "FlameFans" and the password will be "beatwake"

Jbock - I haven't seen any glitches. So far, my gameplay has been perfect so I'm guessing you just have a bad game. You should be able to take it back and trade it for a new one w.o paying anything.

What happens is when "slow" players are running, the player runs very slow (as if he's running a high knee drill). Also after the player is tackled, he stays on the ground frozen until the next play.

It only happened when I played a game in the rain, so I'll see if that was what caused it.

That's strange. I haven't heard of that before but if you gave EA a call, they could tell you either how to fix it or what to tell the store where you bought it. I was having a lighting issue with some road to glory games but I believe that's fixed.

Also, if you want real names for the players and coaches, go here: http://www.thegamingtailgate.com/forums ... ?2-Rosters

That will be the roster file used for the dynasty.

That's your problem right there.

I've found this to be the most realistic version yet! After a particularly electrifying play catch in the endzone at Marshall, my wide receiver promptly broke his leg on a piece of equipment parked behind the endzone.

Everyone's a smart#$%



Since I reset the game, my other dynasty hasn't had this issue. I started out as OC at UTSA and just got hired as OC at Cal. But if I get another rainy game we'll see what happens.

I'm about to setup the dynasty. How should we do contracts? Should you be able to just pick any job that you want? Or should you have to start as an OC at a low tier school? Y'all decide.

Dynasty has been setup. The file name is FlameFans and the password is beatwake. Will start season on Sunday
