NCAA 14 demo

[fromolwyoming]

They've implemented a type pf tutorial thing that teaches you how to do the different kinds of offense and defense. But my favorite thing, is that the option offense is now a viable offense. Whereas in previous games, you would have to throw pretty often, especially for a run oriented offense. This time, well, I was able to run the option with Virginia Tech on Bama pretty effectively. On NCAA 13, it was about impossible to run on them, no matter how many advantages you had, even is they were sitting back in zone, you would be lucky to get 3-4 yards a pop. They have also implented the shovel option, where you can pitch the ball outside, like normal, or "shovel pass" inside. Which is kind of cool.

Also destroyed Texas A&M with Oregon, running mainly the read option, which is really fun now that it works right.

The option worked just fine in NCAA 13, especially the read option. I won many many games on Heisman running a read-option focused offense.

I do agree that running between the tackles was next to impossible, but get some speed on the edges with the read option, and you could be really successful.

The read option could work, but the triple option would really struggle a lot. On All-American, wit the triple option, even with top notch players, it would be difficult to run it at all. Even after throwing it a lot or doing a lot of play action, it would be very difficult to get much positive yardage. Against most teams actually.

Heard that they slacked off on a lot of updated material (stadiums, jerseys, logos, gameplay, etc.)......this is going to be a "down year" for this game because everyone is holding out for the 2015 game that will include the new playoffs.

Got the game as a birthday present, and they have a new feature called "Ultimate Team", where you get some of the best players from all the schools and form them into a team, You play either against the PC or a person to earn coins to unlock more players. Already unlocked Barry Sanders, Alvester Alexander, and Derrick Martin for my team (Wyoming of course).

Its an interesting feature so far.

Got it for PS3 so you can get in on the Wyontaion dynasty, right? :winky:

Still have the 360 man.

And another thing I noticed, run stop d-linemen can push o-linemen backwards.

I wouldn't hold out much hope for the 2015 game.

From what I've read, this just means the NCAA logo can't appear anywhere in the game now. The NCAA wouldn't claim likeness issues for well.....obvious reasons.

Exactly. All the school logos are handled by the Collegiate Licensing Company. They'll just be calling it College Football 15, or something along those lines.
