if it’s turf, how come it looks like grass, not turf? Correct me if i’m wrong, but do all the stadiums have the same grass?

[quote comment="25839"][quote comment="25831"]I thought the grass was supposed to be degradable this year? What happened?[/quote]

Think about how much action is going down though. Even by the end you’ve only been on the field to what amounts to mid-2nd quarter in a 5 min quarter game.[/quote]

If you are talking about Ohio State’s field, the turf is field turf and will not get noticeably torn up like regular grass. That’s probably why we aren’t seeing field degradation. Just a thought.

WTF? Does every body where orange in the game? At least put a few people that wore different colors. I know it’s a home game and all, but the crowd is ridiculous. Just laziness I guess.

I couldn’t agree more. it’s the same engine, same game, with just a few touch up and they’re gonna get your $60 for it. I played about 5 games and already found a few bugs and some a.i. issues.

Before hand, i didnt think id be able to tell a difference from this yrs game to last yrs, but after spending time with the demo, i couldnt be more wrong. The game really does look alot better. The players actually look like college players. Most of the animations are better and the new ones look good.

However, from what i can tell, thats as far as it goes. The crowd is still HORRIBLE. I mean f’ing monkeys could make a crowd that actually felt like a crowd found at a college football game. Even tho, the animations are nice looking, the same ones from 2 yrs ago are still popping up, with only few new ones. The commentary is still unchaged and boring. I dont think ANY one in the EA office has EVER even watched college football let alone attended a game.

Pasta, can you find out if any of the things that i mentioned will be addressed, or will that be what we are left to deal with this year. I’ll tell you what, for me and I hope many ohers, Im not getting on the ea “hype” machine( ifluenced reviews obviously). Im not buying sub par sports games from them (ea) anymore. when they actually make great one, I’ll buy it, thats the only thing that seems to be left to do.

I think the game could be a little faster, it feels too heavy. other than that I think the game is ecxelent!
