NCAA Football 12 Video - E3 Gameplay: Alabama vs. Auburn

[The_Wise_One]

The new tackling system looks awesome. Can't wait to get my hands on the demo

Watched for a second time. That scoring pass, other than the atrocious d-line presence, actually looks pretty good. The zone defenders did what they were supposed to do the Auburn safety just got beat. Looks like it was pretty close and could have gone either way. Not sure what that safety's ratings are but I would assume he is a mid 80's time guy and just got beat. The zone itself looked pretty realistic to me but again...that d-line...ugh.

I know what someone is gonna say.

It's Alabama's o-line.

Still man....still

Game speed looks to be much faster assuming this is on normal and 50 thresh.

It looks as if they have changed the running animations and how the players respond to locomotion.

Run defense looks much better. Ben gave up some big passing plays. I don't know if that was his fault or game issues.

I am seeing a lot of NCAA 11 in that video, which is fine.

So far, looking a little like NCAA 11 .8

Doesn't look bad... defense seems non-existent.

My only concern is, why do the players run like they are hunchbacks?

You are absolutely right. When I watched the video for the first time I was almost shocked by how unimpressed I was. But I think I was looking for things to complain about. I just watched it a secod time and it actally is a pretty good video. On the play that the pass rush gets to the Bama QB he does make a little bit too accurate of a lob pass that is dangerously close to getting completed but oh well.

Defense looked weak but the game looks pretty good

The Bama guy sure did not play like Bama. 1 run to Richardson the whole drive? Then again, when the Pass D is non-existent, might as well take advantage of it.

Alabama will move the ball on anyone though, they are stacked. I remember last year how I could literally not stop them with anyone unless my team had one of the best D's in the game and even then it was tough.

Great footage of some SEC football though.

Liked the kickoff angle better than it has been the past two years.

Also liked how the wildcat play actually worked. Looks promising.

It looks like you are going to have to mix it up in this game. In that IGN vid awhile back man coverage got burned with double moves, which is good, in this one, the guy played zone every time and got burned. If you watch, the zone took care of the TE crossing routes, which is a money play in NCAA 11, but the deep route came open with no pressure. IMO that is how it should be.

I like what I see except for the stonewalling of good d-linemen

Ben played terrible on D he deserved to get scored on but even then he still almost had a sack and could have had a pick on that lob pass to the endzone that was knocked down

Defense only looked weak because Ben took his secondary players out of position on both of the long passing plays:
