Ncaa 11 vs 13

[i3etz]

I have Ncaa 11 already and i want to know if 13 is any improvement over it.
Do linebackers still superjump and knock down passes?
How well can you run the option vs the cpu (spread and traditional).
How dynasty has anything changed?
And lastly is it fun?

No
Spread - Moderately, Traditional - Poorly
Coaching carousel, recruiting is much better, better presentation, pitch grades change over time
I'd say yes but I even thought 08/09 was fun so you'll have to decide for yourself

I agree with 8mileroad. The recruiting is amazingly better. You get to pick what you want to talk about to recruits. You can offer any promise you want from the beginning, national title and all. So far, I haven't experienced the "transfer fail" of NCAA12 and all my online dynasties haven't had any hiccups. Although, my friend had some problems connecting to the online dynasty which we believe was due to him doing his recruiting on the easports website. The only major disappointment is not being able to import draft classes to Madden.

13 is utter trash...this is coming from a long time and dedicated ncaa football gamer.

Best football game to date. I dont play head to head. List any ncaa that is better than this one. This is from a long time football gamer. Im talking ten yard fight and playaction football long time.

You can drop passes over linebackers, safeties, and CBs. You also can't throw stupid outs anymore without getting them pick-6ed, which I especially like.

Recruiting is much more fun in dynasty. Recruting in '11 sucked. Coaching carousel is fun if you want to start out at a 1-star school and work your way up, even if the feature needs a lot of improvement and contracts need reworked.

The option running out of the pistol full house formation is fun as hell. traditional option running and QB run plays aren't as successful as they were in '11 for me so far, but that's probably for the best, because power options and load options out of the I and Goal Line formations worked too well.

I skipped 12 and played 11 for two years, but got 13 this year, and I'm pretty happy with it, although I wish I got a little bit more for my dollar.

11 had the greatest single year improvement of all NCAA footballs but 13 is a much better overall game. IMO

I'll put it like this....

My favorite NCAA game of all time is NCAA 2004
NCAA 2011 was ok but still one of my least favorite NCAA's of all time
I really enjoyed 2012
2013 is a little better than 2012


So you should get 2013.

13 has better passing but everything else 11 does just as well , only talking gameplay here, not off the field dynasty stuff. I went back to 11 and going with it until there is a update to 13 which fixes things.

btw...that guy who said 2004 was the best, absolutely right! I may even try to buy a old ps2 just to play that one.
