I’ve bought every year of this game for decades and absolutely wore out my 2014 disk, so no way I’m stopping now

Well they fixed the single most annoying thing about last year's game for me. 

Quote

Every year we see freshmen arrive on campus and undergo significant physical changes during their first season. Now, when your players hit the Iron Paradise and put in the #work during the offseason you will also see physical changes to their body. Players will now gain weight during offseason progression. The amount they gain is influenced by their player position and year in school. This simulates the real world difference in physical maturity between a freshman and senior.

Or just do what @Zeus and I do. Choose random teams. Last time we played he was Air Force and I was Kennesaw State

Yeah i was a beast with Navy last year

 

I love running option offenses even though they were broken last year

2 more hours before the season starts (for me). Was playing COD and cracking up at the 3D rendering of Bevis and Butthead characters.

Saw that yesterday when I was watching my son play. I just died laughing.

I may hit you up after I get my copy.

Surly tournament?

Yes instead of trying to get a dynasty season together we just need a bracket with the usernames that want in. 
 

Funny thing will be picking teams but nothing a digital coin flip can’t solve each game.

Feedback from Reddit seems very positive. Graphics, gameplay, menu, etc. all noticeably improved. Dynamic lighting in the game - meaning lighting and shadows change as the game progresses (ie. game starting at 6 pm won't finish in daylight 4 hours later.)

Recruiting and portal have also received an overhaul.

RPO to Moore seems like best play I have found. No more Golden or Bond bombs. Endries not quite as good at TE but has some nice break away speed when you hit him in stride.

Gonna miss lobbing it to Bond for a TD on the go route like twice a game.

Yeah, I definitely find it harder to go deep with Moore and Wingo.  I feel like Wingo  needs to be faster in the game 

I am having success on All American going deep with Wingo, he is a beast on contested balls. The throw mechanics are a bit different this year and I think the receivers win more 50/50 balls instead of needing to have the guy blow past the corner. Arch is pinpoint accurate too, so he can really fit the ball in downfield.

I've only really played on road to CFP and not against the cpu yet on dynasty mode but good to hear.  I will say, I've been wrecking people with the HB toss play in the full house formation.

Looking forward to getting to play the game tomorrow. Have read/heard great things, but disappointed in our roster.

No KJ Lacey, Nick Townsend, Bo Barnes, Michael Terry III, Myron Charles, Josiah Sharma, Smith Orogbo, Nick Brooks.

Goosby at 82, Vasek/Lance Jackson 78, Jelani McDonald 83.

Jonah Williams at Will, Ryan Niblett at CB: changing positions adds a ton of skill caps.

As someone who likes to play dynasty to death, the lack of more than half of our class and the ratings and Jonah being out of position lessen some of the fun. Our recruiting class last year really set the team up for success in the future, and the game really shafted us there and it’s not reflected. Not to mention Alabama being a 94 OVR and tied for best roster seems a bit off.

Just wait 72 hours and the world will be on fire

I don’t understand playing against the computer really. I used to with updated rosters on NCAA14 because it’s all we really had.

Online play is just so much more interesting even if it’s a gimmicky game. It’s like chess, I never played much chess until we had mass online chess against real people and it makes it so much more enjoyable.


Do you guys play on Heisman with sliders or just win every game by 21?

I played pretty much every game on 25 on Heisman with the default settings. If it was anything other setting, id work the shit out of the computer. I will say, I played Bama on Heisman and threw about 10 touchdowns to Bond on go routes for the heck of it. Just to see if I could.

Re: playing the computer, yeah it can get in some ways a bit more repetitive but I definitely don’t win every game on Heisman, and really only play Offense in a dynasty. Ideally I’d be playing an online dynasty, but the coordination on that is a challenge.

Fifa, much preferred Ultimate Team mode went heavy on the online there.

Played a bunch of the Ultimate Team challenges and some games against the computer with my team. Those were actually kinda fun.

Playing on Heisman isn’t a guaranteed win, even against a much lower rated team. I got absolutely worked by Arizona State the other. Got sacked 7 times in less than 3 qtrs. Threw 3 or 4 picks. I was pissed. Turned that shit off.

This shit is fuckin rough. Going into a top 10 atmosphere on the road is damn near guaranteed a loss. The qbs dot you up with no remorse. One on one tackling is non existent. I’m sure it’s just gonna take some getting used to but this game feels way clunkier and slow than last year. If the computer determines you will lose the game you will know fairly early on. Florida’s first drive they tipped a ball over DB to pick up a first down on 3rd and 15. Then my next drive on offense I dove for the pylon and of course fumbled. Touchback. This shit is super frustrating so far

Waiting on getting the kinks out and adjustments to the settings.

Pretty sure they'll be in the game by the time rosters are finalized prior to week 1
