Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2006 I love the 40 test. Apparently they don't handicap your player for weight, since I had a 6'3", 290 pound defense end run a 4.41. Recruiting doesn't seem too different from last year. Catching is a helluva lot more consistent, but the AI still has the annoying fucking habit of being able to throw it over your DBs whenever it wants to. Going to have to experiment with the sliders and see if I can fix it. All in all, I'm glad I found it for $29.99 at Fry's. Worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spicy McHaggis 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2006 King, that's pretty cool. I'm friends with Desmond Reed, and he introduced me to the Ting twins once. When SC is in session, I usually eat lunch where the athletes eat. Not only can you see many of the football stars in the fall, but the food is the best on campus and the prices are great.

Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted July 20, 2006 Depends what level you play on, too... If you're on default Varsity, you'll murder everyone with anyone. Not completely. I consider myself at least a decent player and the first thing I do is create my old college as a cupcake and build them up. Usually I can get 5 or 6 wins against a fairly decent schedule my first season. That leads to a small bowl bid, a bump in prestige, more recruiting points, and the rout begins. This time I went ahead and kept a schedule against 10 middle of the road schools and a couple of schools just outside the top 25. I got smashed. Won 2 games. Had to go to the option offense and run the clock just to keep some scores respectible. But, I managed to get a pretty decent 4* QB through the pipeline. Halfway through my second season and things are going a bit better. Pretty sure I'm about to get the top rated DE on the board (nice 6'4" 260 pound pass rusher) during the inseason recruiting (one of my favorite recent additions). Downgraded my schedule and I'm 3-2. Just not enough team speed. Doesn't bode well for the second half of the season, when the teams get harder. Just hope I manage to get some wins together before I end up fired at the end of my third season. Winning season is a definite possibility. A bowl bid, not so much.

Guest Princess Leena Report post Posted July 20, 2006 Yeah, that's true. I always start as a cupcake in legacy, too... and I don't even bother scheduling the top teams, as you'll have no chance with players rated as low as possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Be sure to add in the SouthWest Conference version... If you get caught paying the players under the table, your entire program gets suspended for a year and then you only get a half-season the year after that.

Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted July 20, 2006 Man, I love Florida's playbook. If you've got any talent at all in the "skill" positions you can win with it. Made a huge difference in my offense. Sure it's against a bad schedule but I'll take what I can get. Plus it sure does help with the inseason recruiting when you're not getting embarrassed in front of the top talent in the nation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just got it and was pretty disappointing considering what the 360 is capable of. I might have been better served getting the regular X-Box version. I think the 360 version is just fine, for the first foray on a next-gen system for college football. I don't care about all the fluff. The gamplay is really solid. The Dynasty is solid as well. Online play works great.. The game looks pretty damn good at least in HDTV....if you compare the xbox and xbox 360 versions its like night and day. If you dont have a HDTV, then there is no reason to have a 360. I am loving the game. The gameplay is the best in NCAA in a long long long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't have this year's game yet, but I really doubt that it was just unbelievably easy for you on Heisman. To be fair though, there's a pretty big gap between levels, so maybe you don't want to switch. Going from 12-1 national champions at All-American to 2-10 the following year at Heisman used to kind of piss me off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
