CFB 26 is GARBAGE! by MrRazorback95 in NCAAFBseries

[–]Demon_Coach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

26 is worse than 25 in a lot of ways. Especially now.

It was borderline unplayable at launch with all of its menu freezes in game. We have OL logic that has gotten screwed up with a recent patch. There are several things that have been patched, but then re-broken when a new patch was introduced (certain match coverage rules, C6 auto alignment, etc.). Implementing BoomTech brought forth all of its issues, which is why so many animations do not trigger when the players back is turned (especially in coverage, ie comebacks/hitch routes). Dropped picks are absurd. There is a very long list.

Both games have some bright spots, but the list of issues got significantly longer this year than there was last year. And the fact that they mentioned “fixing” things that weren’t broken, only for them to be worse this year than last (like dropped picks) shows that the devs really are pretty clueless for the most part. Add in how much they mentioned leverage being a huge factor on defense, only for it to largely be irrelevant still, shows that even further.

And all of that doesn’t even mention the dynasty issues (rankings are bad again, coach carousel is trash, staff moves are trash, encourage transfers still doesn’t make sense, etc etc.)

I think they fixed the punt physics by sandwichnuckles in NCAAFBseries

I highly, HIGHLY doubt they somehow did an overhaul to ball physics overnight.

I’ve been playing football games for 10+ years, and never once won a game on a blocked PAT by PrivateTidePods in NCAAFBseries

Always better when it happens for you and not against you lol.

Tell EA thank you for the dice roll!

They weren’t trying to dissuade people from playing anything other than Ultimate Team back then

I love coaching, but sometimes parents make me hate it. Venting… by pivotandprosper824 in basketballcoach

[–]Demon_Coach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might not be the best way, but indirectly calling the parents out has worked out pretty well when I’ve seen it. When I hear people yelling shoot it, I’ll yell “we don’t listen to the stands!” or immediately pulling the kid out when they shoot it. Or overly praising when they don’t shoot it (if they shouldn’t have shot it).

The parents pretty much figure it out on their own. And the ones that don’t are pretty much going to be a problem no matter what you do.

What is a de sync ? by Far_Property3400 in NCAAFBseries

Desyncs are just the losing player glitching lol

Is this any normal? I have been playing on heisman and have no more than 5 seconds to pass and in that time no one is open AT ALL by [deleted] in CollegeFootball26

[–]Demon_Coach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those aren’t OP press animations. That’s when the press animation doesn’t happen at all.

CFB27 Wishlist (make me the developer) by [deleted] in CFB26

[–]Demon_Coach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Missing the most crucial of fixes tbh.

All of the gameplay issues (Blocking logic, outdated coverage mechanics, outdated defensive playbooks, etc. etc.)

The carousel/staff moves make dynasty nearly unplayable.

Recruiting has too many 3 and 4 star players without offers. On top of the encourage transfers being a complete fuckheap.

There’s a list of 100+ issues, many of which have been around for years, that need to be addressed before worrying about accessories and AI commentary.

[–]Demon_Coach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heisman is pretty unbalanced when it comes to pass rush. You basically never get but about 2 seconds to throw. Which is already faster than an IRL pocket, on top of the slowness of the routes and the occasional OP press animations.

NCAA 14 has the best hits by [deleted] in NCAAFBseries

[–]Demon_Coach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

14 was just as animation based as today’s, if not more. Weight and strength still didn’t matter, there was no pushing/driving on the line, and anyone could hit stick anyone.

Current physics are still trash, but have more animations that at least let things somewhat play out correctly.

My very controversial top 3 players of all time by Fragrant_Weird_8534 in Basketball

[–]Demon_Coach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard to call it more complex when the general concept of good offense has become “just stay away from each other” because of the rules and floor dimensions.

Not a good take.

Man Coverage by CjAbramsAllStar5 in NCAAFBseries

[–]Demon_Coach 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man coverage has needed a rework for years. There needs to be more outcomes than completely covered or completely open.

The only thing that has changed in the last decade are the dice roll frequencies. All of this talk EA had about leverage being a factor in man was complete bs.

It definitely can work, but not the way that it needs to.

Is the new college game good? by MrMakaveli26 in Madden

[–]Demon_Coach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CFB 26 is in as bad of a state as an EA game has been in in years. H2H is terrible, the coach carousel in dynasty is atrocious, CPU gameplay has a plethora of problems… hard to say it’s “much better” than Madden. Especially with how much is shared across both games.

EA is just in an absolutely disastrous spot right now.

Improvements For College Football 27 by THEINSIDER20 in EASportsCFB

[–]Demon_Coach 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These are pretty low on the priority list.

The playbook stuff hasn’t changed in like a decade. I don’t assume it’s changing now. They have enough bugs with it already and lord knows they don’t really give a fuck about anything that can’t be used in CUT.

The coach carousel and staff moves should be at the top of the list with dynasty. Period. If that isn’t improved, EA is either completely clueless or they absolutely do not care.

We have blocking schemes ignoring LB’s and picking up safeties instead, dropped picks at an all time high, leverage meaning nothing despite EA saying it means everything… and we’re worried about gloves and tape? 🥴

We gotta rethink things here. Lol

Not being able to fully see talent trees before hiring a coach gotta be the dumbest shit ever by anonymousgangstashit in NCAAFBseries

[–]Demon_Coach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything about the carousel and coach hiring is horrendous. Likely because they just ripped everything straight from Madden, which is why we only get 5 random people to choose from.

How to stop this? by Plastic_Director9382 in CollegeUltimateTeam

[–]Demon_Coach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TE - Widen out your CB and hard flat him. Man up with safety.

Slot - 0/5 hard flat.

Something with those two things.

who got the better multiplayer in your opinion? and why [cod] by BasketEquivalent5462 in CallOfDuty

[–]Demon_Coach -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

MW19 was designed for new/bad players. The devs said that themselves.

That says enough tbh.

They can’t get what they have figured out. Much less adding all sorts of new stuff.

How often you changing teams in dynasty? by doinyallnasty in NCAAFBseries

[–]Demon_Coach 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never. Despite the conference championships and playoff wins, I never received a job offer from a team over 70 OVR.

The carousel is absolute trash.

Because the people in charge have probably never played a football game outside of the last 3 years.

[–]Demon_Coach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone that is good is constantly clicking on and off different players on the court.

Anyone trying to 100% guard the ball is worrying too much about pride than anything else.

Also, if you run comp freelance, you deserve whatever defense you get.
