NCAA Football 12 + Rosters

Texas intro seemed glitchy with dead air between segments. Nice I guess but didn't do much for me.

No ability to edit or even see depth charts.

Commentary brand new.

Warping gone from what I can tell, but guys shift better in zone to stay in position.

Game plays a LOT faster. You get burned big time if you blitz wrong.

Also, covering with the FS is a big gamble. They can get on top of you in a hurry, though I should probably test it without Blake freaking Gideon first.

Shotgun running sets work.
there's another minor miracle right there.

testing the shotgun running with Oregon on AA

+ 12 yds
-2 yds
-4 yds (bad AI on this one, guy on motion didn't block, just kinda ran into him but no blocking motion)
0 yds
0 yds
+10 yds (good blocking)
+ 4 yds
+1 yds
-3 yds (wild duck formation)
+1 yds (inside the 10, defense stacked for run)

just tried a PA out of the shotgun, got sacked, I had maybe 2 seconds to throw it, still takes too long....won 10-0 (TD was a fumble returned for TD on a punt)

I wonder how much of the -yard gain has to do with repetition and CPU learning the style of O you're trying to run?

PA have better be fixed.

yea i was thinking about that as well, couple of those - yds were cuased by bad blocking AI, but a couple were also caused by them just run blitzing and overloading the line

tackling def looked a lot smoother, MLB's didn't look like superman, I tried to pass over the MLB and he actually backed up to swat the ball

will try PA's with Bama under center and see how that works but from what i've read at OS it's still pretty bad

Why does EA insist on changing menus every year? In 2011, you change plays by moving down, change formations by moving right. In the demo it is the opposite.

You can scroll through plays much faster though which is a welcome change.

Maybe this year they won't randomly change which trigger changes positions when switching between rosters or recruiting menus.

One small addition is middle finger tape for the Texas WR. Nice small alternative to the boxing tape look.
