This game is freaking hard.

Just turned off the game twice vs Sparty due to impending losses. I don’t even remember doing that in the last game.

Few things I’ve noticed finally playing a decent team on the road.

1. Road games are no joke- I had trouble settling the QB down. I couldn’t audible because the play would be wrong, if I did settle the QB down it only took 1-2 bad plays for it to come back, and to me it seemed like a real game in that once it went downhill it went downhill pretty hard. Example is I went for it down 7 in the 4th and didn’t get it. 1 play later I’m down 14.

2. Conditions really impact the game too. It was windy and very rainy when I played and it affected the game. Missed two extra points because of the wind and I had probably 10 dropped passes. The craziest thing though was I had a WR slip and fall during a route. I’ve never had that happen before and I got sacked because of it. Went from being a nice 15+ yard play (had the guy beat on a post) to a 10 yard loss after my guy slipped.

3. The OL protection vs the AI is a complete joke. I was getting sacked 3+ times per game vs Akron/UWM/Marshall and it was much the same vs Sparty.

4. My DL pressure with all these bad asses on the DL is a joke too. Unless I’m controlling they aren’t getting home.

Overall, I guess this will make it more challenging but damn I think they over compensated.

Still messing with Road to Glory as a HB.

1st year was HB3 for Army
2nd year HB2 for Sparty
3rd year was guaranteed starter at Toledo, however, I join as HB3 then HB2 and HB1 after injury to starter. Become top ten HB in CFB only to have starter return and I am now HB3 with a insane lead in Coach Trust over all other HBs.

This game is retarded as fuck.

Haha what? It’s dynasty vs the computer.

I should be able to defeat the AI on Heisman I get it but damn it’s not easy like it used to be.

I have to add the LOS is a total mess in this game.

I’m still pissed they changed the zone read controls. I really need that to get the ball rolling.

I don't know...I played one game on Freshman just to get the differences down and then went to Heisman. It hasn't been that bad so far.

i think i just need to run the shit out of the ball. I seem to do fine until I try to explore the passing game. I just don’t have any time in the pocket to get anything going.

Pre-snap reads are important. It plays very much like Madden on All-Pro and you have to anticipate.

running the ball does wonders as well yes.

I'm 50 now and I haven't played a video game in over 10 years but I told myself if this game came back, so am I. So which console should I buy?

buy the one you want to be online with, if your friends are still playing. Most of mine are super ols/distracted now, like me.

Neither system does every feature for 4k disc playback. if you're going to pay may as well have a decent but not great 4k player, at least before the studios successfully train people out of theater sound and quality altogether.

don't get the discless one unless you're sure you'll never buy again. The sound quality on streaming is so bad, and it doesn't take much to get really solid sound. bic f12 is basic but powerful for very little as a starter sub, for example, when you go that route.

one rather big discrepancy is ps5's expandability. it's much cheaper to add space if you're going to be installing a bunch of games. Xbox lets you use an external drive for secondary storage, but the expandable nvme storage is proprietary only. And you cannot load games from the non Xbox drives, so if you're like me and will enjoy downloading a handful of game pass games and playing them very rarely (especially dumb ones like goat simulator), note that the series x specific games can't be played on the third party drives. So you have to move them from an affordable SSD plugged in via USB to the internal storage.

I don't like call of duty games, but for free I might play the campaign. that kind of game can't be played from a third party storage unit, so I'll have to clear off internal drive space to play it, even if a third party SSD has 4 TB free.
