NCAA football 11

I've talked with DC. The playbook is spread and he implemented some pistol this upcoming season. It is right. And it'smaking me see fireworks! Spread and pistol together, it just makes me think of meshing Nevada's Offense with Missou's spread! Salivate!

I looked at that last year and thought they had updated the stadium because of the seating in the end zones. They haven't surveyed the stadium in quite some time. IPF/suites/etc aren't there. Don't recall seeing the RAC.

The entrance looks like it is from under the stadium. I haven't payed close enough attention over the years to know if the team ever entered from under the War.

The new AI and physics engine are a huge upgrade over 10. I like the new no huddle. It pisses me off when I run no huddle and end up 3 and out.

I think they spent more time working on the AI and graphics than updating stadiums and team facts. From some of the reviews I have read, they have taken a beating for the last couple of years because the game play wasn't up to the same standards as their last generation console games were.
 
The team entrance has cinder block walls and it looks like the underside of a stadium above. Then they come out underneath the arc. Hrm.

Well, in real life they come out from the arch. EA Sports just doesn't know crap, not even our freakin' school colors! :tickedoff:

Did they ever enter the field from inside the war pre-rac days?
I really don't see how that would even be possible. Wyoming and the visiting team have always come in from that end of the stadium, not from under the stands (as concession stands and bathrooms are the only things there).
 
Field house is over over on the west side - locker rooms, etc. I just watched the intro while i'm getting ready to whip up on the utes. Sure looks like that side. My theory is they had some old footage or something and really screwed it up by entering center field, magically appearing in the north end zone. I think they just screwed it up altogether - your right they have always entered from the endzone.
 
EA also continues to insist that Utah State is one of our rivals. I really dig the game, but the fact that they don't seem to give a shit about anyone but the BCS schools really pisses me off. I've bitched on the EA forums for the last 3 years about the corrections that needed to be made for Wyoming, but they don't seem to care that their game is full of inaccuracies.

Let's face it, they have over 100 teams to cover, and Wyoming has a pretty darn small fan base compared to most teams. Getting everything right for every single team while still selling the game at the same price as other sports games just doesn't make a whole lot of business sense, unfortunately.

Doesn't mean it doesn't suck balls, but it's the reality of it all.
 
wyobrandon, cool highlight reel! Our boys look oddly faster than some of the teams you were playing :whistle:
 
Recruiting is a bitch! I found the best way to go about is to get 10-15 guys and spend a butt load of time on them. I am in season 3 and finally got a 4 star recruit, proir to that it was 2-3 star guys. Anybody else have any thoughts?
 
I just do Quick Call. And if there are a few players I need, I make the time limit 1 hour. But I generally hate the recruiting part.

One thing that bothers me is, is that they couldn't even keep the colors right for the Pokes this year.

That video is from NCAA 08. Anybody have any media yet from NCAA '11? I'm sorry I keep pestering, but I'm not going to buy the game if Wyo is seriously fucked up, which I suspect they are.
 
Well, they made David Leonard black, ACS is a better passer and sucks at running, our colors are apparently Brown and White, and we somehow enter onto the field from under the stands. Animation is better, commentary is still the same, there is now group tackling, and it is pretty fun to run the ball.

Haha... he IS our best WR, so of course he has to be black. In all seriousness, though... the players I knew in college (like Flora) loved playing as themselves... being white vs black or vice versa in the game has got to suck, haha.

I don't have any media, calpoke, but you should buy the game. It's damn good this year. There are a couple of little things wrong with Wyo, but overall it's pretty close. When you get it jump onto roster share and download my rosters (my ID is WYO1016). I downloaded a roster with all the names for all the teams and fixed Wyoming's rosters to be accurate.

While we're on the subject, anyone that has a PS3 and wants a Wyoming football theme can grab the one I made from http://www.mediafire.com/wyo1016 :mrgreen:
 
I bought NCAA 2010 last year and did not like it. I was SMU, my favorite team growing up near Dallas (I'm a Wyoming fan too). The roster was not correct. I could not recruit. I'd get like 6 or 8 players. Recruiting took too long. I wish they had a recruiting option where one can just select the players wanted. I'd choose players who I want on the team and not just the best players. I also missed the create a team in the game rather than the team builder that they have now, even though that's great for those who want to do it that way.
I did like the ability to swap teams from one conference to another. So what I did was I put the 10 Texas teams in the Pac-10 to make my own "Texas Conference". I remember going 7-6 in year one and losing my bowl game. I remember losing to rivals TCU and Rice. I lost to Texas, North Texas and 2 others. Had close wins most of the time. Then the sorry recruiting class.
In year 2, I went 12-1. I lost to Texas but won the conference because Texas A&M and Rice beat Texas and I beat Texas A&M head to head. But I used the option of pressing the 'A' button after the first 3 games which made the season easier. It was my response to the frustration of not being able to recruit. I won my bowl that time. Then I lost interest in the game completely.
In June I read the ea sports message boards. I read that they made recruiting harder but that one could choose easier levels of difficulty for recruiting if you did not want it to be too challenging. That was enough to turn me off. I don't know why they have to be so stupid as to only make it harder and not give options like just choosing who we want. I also want to be able to choose my own rules like no overtime. I miss the days when teams could tie. The BCS sucks. If I buy NCAA 2011, it will be at some place that sells used ones and many months from now.
I know I forgot something :brick: .
