The new revamped passing where you can place the ball into tight areas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn. Heisman is next up for difficulty which is the hardest. So does 6 minute quarters simulate a pretty realistic game in terms of scoring? Like in NBA 2K 5 minute quarters gives you a realistic NBA score which is obviously 12 minutes in real life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six seems perfect to me. You could go 7 but I’ve never played a game using 6 minute quarters and felt it was to short. Heisman is out of my skill grade. I throw so many interceptions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted July 28 Author Share Posted July 28 I do hope they fix the sim logic in this game, not saying things like these aren't likely to happen but they are too common. 1. Defense giving up huge leads. Like I'm up 21 to 3 or something at halftime, but the computer decides to make it a tie game 2. I'm in the 4th quarter, running down the clock to take the lead. I take the lead to go ahead by a TD but left 20 seconds on the clock and somehow the computer scores and we go to overtime. 3. Giving up a bunch of points early then playing lights out the rest of the game. Very odd, especially against good teams, yet they will give up a lot of points to bad teams. The 20 second one was was a frustrating one to me because it was me vs Pitt and they somehow tie the game and we go into overtime. then we go into double overtime and I throw a pick and lose. I beat Virginia Tech the next week, almost the same scenario but at the end of the game they don't score and I get to take a knee to end the game. Also, questionable game plan by the coach. The guy seems like he wants to run it no matter what but you can't audible or call any other play. We were going for 2, got a holding call but he still wanted to go for 2 but it was a HB direct snap from the 10 yard line. There was no world in which this was going to work, and it didn't.

This stuff happens to me in Dynasty Mode occasionally but its not the norm. I do agree with you about the CPU about clock management. They are incredible when it comes to being able to drive the length of the field in very limited time to either tie or win games. Even if I have been dominating them on defense they will suddenly become unstoppable. I keep hearing a huge update is coming. But all that being said, the game to me is the best sports video game ever made. 9.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you're playing road to glory they are worse because at least in a regular game you can control the defense or at least see what the computer is doing. In RTG you score, press continue and see the sim and just see them somehow drive the length of the field in 20 seconds. Like, I guess the computer is awful at kicking too. I get into FG range and then see no points go up and say WTF? Oh another thing, it doesn't seem like the computer runs the ball in the season simulation. I'm Virginia (as you know) but somehow have the leading rusher in the nation and he's only got like 700 yards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted July 28 Author Share Posted July 28 So here is the national rushing stats at the end of the year (before the bowl games) #1 Rusher in the country has 997 yards and 13 TDs, my guy dropped to 3rd with 902 yards and 6 TDs Keep in mind, IRL last year 45 players in college football had over 1,000 yards Also funny enough no player from Virginia was even in the top 100 in rushing.

This is purely just simulating the games, it seems not great. They addressed this in the post they had for the upcoming patch regarding "super sim logic" One other thing I might have to check up on, I think they (my team) are using the starting QB on punt returns. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sblfilms Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 I feel like this game could have used another couple of months of polish to be possibly the best football game of all time. But everything works ALMOST how it should, but doesn't quite. So everything has a touch of brokenness, but nothing really game destroying. Maybe with more player feedback, they can release some patches to fix various problems I've already encountered a bunch. No matter what, it is very fun!

Keyser_Soze Posted July 29 Author Share Posted July 29 National Championship was Kentucky vs Cincinnati with Kentucky taking it 41 - 22. The QB on Cincinnati won the Heisman as well. Wow.

No word on when but it’s in the works. I hear what you’re saying about the polish but honestly I could not be anymore happier with what EA Sports gave us here.

Keyser_Soze Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 Not much there that I have encountered but at least they are fixing things. Actually interesting seeing so many people roughing the kicker. I blocked an extra point once, the computer ran into my punter once. But what I've seen a lot is face masks. A lot of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the AI has made the cpu tons better. I could just be imaging it but it seems like the computer adapts to what you are calling and trying to do. They also seem to make smart decisions when the time calls for it. Am I crazy?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has nothing to do with what he's talking about. He's talking about generative AI and how it helped make player faces. It's somewhat nonsense because if you've spent any time with an AI model it takes almost as much time to train the AI and generate a good asset than it does to create yourself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
