    Epic failure, what????????

    I think it's an amazing game that needs some polishing... I love online play and online dynasties!!!!!
  • j_crazy
    of all the things i wanted to see improved last year, none were addressed.
  • Nate
    Online Dynasty could definitely be tweaked around. I don't know if I will actually pick this one up. I was very disappointed in '10.

    I liked last year's game, it wasn't perfect, but what game is?

    I have been complaining about Alabama's uniforms FOREVER. It is good to see that they finally fixed this issue. Also the fact that they finally added some equipment is refreshing too. The equipment was a few years behind.

    But to the people who say they haven't fixed certain things yet... the article mentions that EA sports hasn't announced the major changes yet. Be patient, they might have tweaked some things. I will say that I have been disappointed in EA for the past few years though. Ever since EA hasn't had any competition for pro/college football, they have been coasting. Several things (equipment, generic stadiums) should have been taken care of years ago. But they have just now been fixing that stuff. I was really frustrated that OU's Peden Stadium was a generic stadium all the way up until NCAA 10. There is no excuse for that

    Everyone is disappointed every year. I don't know why people think it will "finally be good this year".

    It won't.

    I love NCAA 10. I guess maybe because I beat up on everyone with Pryor, Berry, and Saine.

    uhh not so fast. I wouldn't mind seeing that either. PS2 had the D-IAA schools for years, and now 360 can't? Please. I am tired of seeing generic made up teams thrown in for the D-IAA schools in dynasty modes. That's just laziness on EA Sports' part.
  • trackandccrunner
    I too would like to see the FCS schools on there.

    formation subs, create a playbook, gang tackles, more control of create a superstar mode.

    If I have been playing NCAA 08 since I got a PS3, would this NCAA 11 with the mentioned upgrades be worth it?
  • Goldenboy26
    I really like the single bowl season, I wish they would do something about offseason, because its a pain in the ass waiting for everyone to do players leaving early, transfer requests, 5 weeks of recruiting, position changes, cut players etc... it takes forever on online dynasties
  • brutus161
    Am I the only one that wishes they would make an entire game out of the recruiting from Dynasty mode. I love to play the games, but I love ot work my tail off to get a 5 star recruit away from a rival even more.
  • ohiotiger33
    I want FCS schools as well. Also, running QBs are too strong.

    Formation subs and gang tackling were both mentioned in the article.

    Running quarterbacks throw it too well.
  • ohiotiger33
    Exactly. You can be sprinting and throw a perfect deep ball. I like the game besides this factor. They need to make them a bit slower too. It just isn't realistic.

    Like the first released pic though ;)
  • jspitaleri
    They need to make a "generic" BCS Championship Game logo to be used after the first season so you don't have a situation where you are five years down the road in Dynasty mode, playing the NC game in the Orange Bowl but having the Citi logo with the roses...

    You beat me to it. Somebody didn't read the article haha
  • j_crazy
    read the article.

    i never said they weren't being addressed in this year, just that i had been wanting it since '06 and nothing had been done about it, until now.

    I will buy it again this year. It is my annual birthday present to myself
