NCAA 2009
Was just wondering if anyone else has played the new NCAA game... any thoughts or comments?
We waited at Gamestop for it to come out on Monday... Only saw nittany lion being interviewed by the Collegian... not sure who it was tho
Oh and the first play I ran was a slant from DC to D-Will over the middle... completion 8 yards...
No Coastal Carolina in the game, but handled Oregon State pretty well... 2-0 #11
GO STATE

If you are talking about the Gamestop by Walmart on North Atherton, it was DWill. I was a little more then wasted and don’t remember much about being there, but I do remember talking to him for a second.

I pre-ordered the game but it hasn’t arrived yet. I can’t wait. I’ve been playing the demo, but it can only go so far.

Demo
I gave the demo a spin on my 360. You could only play OSU vs LSU, but from actual gameplay it didn’t seem like anything new. Graphics are better and the crowd noise is a lot more noticeable though.
I think the big selling point for this year’s edition is the online dynasty mode. From all of the reviews I’ve seen, all of the other modes remained static from last year or even dropped in comparison. From what I’ve gathered, it seems like this might be another one of those holding pattern years before they break out a big change in the series.

I got the game on Tuesday. They have Beachum as the backup RB and Green is the 4th string. He has the same speed as Royster which we all know is untrue. the game play is awesome except for the fact that QBs still get picked off too easily. The running game is still fun and the graphics are great.

adjust the sliders
The game hasn’t been out long enough for any consensus to be had on slider settings, but there are some starting points if you’d like to adjust the game’s realism:

Glitches?
Are all of the glitches gone at least, as in when you make a big play the screen in 08 freezes for a few moments?
Agree about how interceptions are too easy – when over 50% of the games feature a INT returned for a TD, the AI is off.

yeah
the PSU o-line is great and the defense is awesome already have 2 pics with Capt Tony and they left Lee in the game which is awesome…I wonder if they will have him in next year as well
overall it is great…against O-state I returned a punt and kickoff for TD’s with Dwill maybe I need to up the hardness level

Just got the game yesterday and it is great. Uploaded my own music to the stadium with some Blue Band Tracks and Zombie nation, it is incredable. If anyone wants to get an online dynasty together or wants to play me, let me know. My screen Name is KatManDuww if you would like to friend me.

that would be fun…but can we have multiple PSU teams in one online dynasty?
i believe my online name is dbagger
I won’t be on until this weekend though (how does the online dynasty work?)
and how do you bump a players stats… I didn’t think you could do that with out creating a player???

Dont know
I do not have a clue how the online dynasty works. I am going to check it out and see how it works and I will report back with the details

cool dude
well I don’t have time tonight but if you look into it and want to start an online dynasty league lets do it
have you played online against anybody yet…I was just wondering how the lag was working and if the blue tooth headsets stayed active or dropped out like they do in other games

Online Dynasty
it is like fantasy football. there is a commish and he is in charge of the league. you pick teams and play games against each other and the computer. you recruit against each other for the same players. so if you want that 5 star Dual Threat QB, you better work hard because everyone is going after him.

Online Play
There was talk a while back about organizing a BSD league online. Anyone care to organize it? Not that I can participate mind you.

I'm on the 360
if anyone is interested in a league, my name is NEPTUNES418 and this is my first xbox football game. Give me a few days to become decent at it.

punt return
Has anyone else noticed that when the CPU punts to you, they take wierd angles on your while pursuing? I’m getting like 50 yards a punt return, very wierd

The kickoff/punt return yards and the CPU completion % are all out of wack. So is the beefiness of all OL’s. There is reportedly a patch well in the works to address the roster and so gameplay issues.

Pass Defense And Friend Invite
I feel that pass defense o with online play is near impossible if you have an impact QB or a tall impact WR. No matter what defense I would pick I would get torn apart. Anyone who whants to do a online dynasty or just wants to play send me a friend invit. I will see if we can get something set up over the weekend to test it out.

audio tracks
I haven’t purchased the game yet, but can someone describe how adding music tracks to the game (and their association with events) works? I’d love to find some audio files around the web of Penn State chants and have them play with some probability, similarly to the way it happens in a real game. What’s the degree of control one has over it? Given a “Hey PSU” chant mp3, could I set it up to start after the defense stuffs a gut run on second down during the 4th quarter when we have a lead of less than seven points (or even more arbitrarily specific than that)?

Blue Band
You can upload any music you want to whatever situation you want(like touchdown,timeout,turnover). I dowmloaded a bunch of blue band songs and of course zombie nation for a touchdown.

qualify?
Can I set it to only happen during second quarter touchdowns or on a final timeout?
by gumbercules on Jul 18, 2008 5:48 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I dont think so. I think it’s just Home team timeout or away team timeout. And it’s also one track for all home team touchdowns
