Hopefully its a glitch and will be fixed later. Otherwise I'm gonna have to head down there and rain an ungodly fucking firestorm on those bastards.

yeah, I always thought it was linked to the gamertag.

7/18/2011 1:28:22 PM

This game doesnt sound that good.

RTG mode sounds like you are 99 overally halfway through freshman year, and 100% trust with your coach. Thats wayyyyyy too fast and no fun.

Assistant Coach mode sounds like everything is the same except you dont call plays on the other side. Still recruit both sides, etc.

Supersim is still broken and skews stats and TOP.

Sounds like passing is hard and players still jump 20 feet to block passes.

Meh.

7/18/2011 3:56:12 PM

If passing wasn't hard, scores would be too high. Passing should be hard. There shouldn't be more than 3 seconds of time to throw on an average play either based on real life. The game has tons of problems but time to throw isn't one of them.

7/18/2011 4:57:42 PM

@hey now- gamertag is ncsuftw should EZ not show in the next 90min. lol

7/18/2011 6:02:47 PM

EZ2Score21 is fucking out, pttyndal is fucking in.

7/18/2011 7:07:04 PM

I'm doing our schedules now, will advance afterwards.

Rules: (largely pasted from the '10 thread)


Gameplay Settings
Difficulty: AA
Quarter Length: 5 min
Injuries: On
Fatigue: On
Ice the Kicker: On
Homefield Advantage: On
Custom Playbooks: YES

Fair Gameplay Rules
1. Kickoffs: Onside kicks are not allowed unless you are a) behind 10 pts or more or b) you are behind in the 4th quarter. An occasional onside kick to surprise your opponent is ok but use them within reason.

2. Fourth Down: Don't be an asshole and go for it when it's obviously not kosher. You know enough about football to know what is right and wrong.

3. Substitutions: Quite a few teams now have their own version of the wildcat formation, so using the in-game qb-hb player subs is acceptable. Manually substituting the hb for the qb in other formations to exploit the defensive AI isn't allowed.

4. QB Play: Whenever possible, stay inside the pocket unless you are forced out. Boot legs and designed roll outs are ok. Dropping back 20 yds or running around with a scrambling qb to complete a pass isn't allowed.

5. Sportsmanship:
a) No running up the score. For our purposes, defeating your opponent by 35 points or more is excessive.
b) Stat padding will be frowned upon especially against another user controlled team. When up by more than 2 scores late in the game, take advantage of the new Chew Clock feature and run the ball. Avoid getting an extra score when you can just run the clock out by kneeling.

6. Disconnects: These are an unfortunate consequence of playing online. Whenever 2 users are disconnected early in a game, the users will play a new game. If a disconnect occurs in the 2nd half, one of three things can happen:
a) both coaches can agree to start a new game at 0-0
b) the team trailing can concede defeat (note: the trailing team will automatically concede defeat if losing by more than 2 scores with less than 2 min to go); or
c) if an agreement can't be reached, I'll flip a coin. Heads-the team leading gets the win, Tails- a new game will be played
*don't attempt to disconnect by pulling the plug because you're losing. Please report any suspected user disconnects of this type.

Misc:

a) 1-AA(FCS) teams will be replaced with a 3* or above team of your choice.b) Any offensive/defensive playbook may be used, including CUSTOM
b) 3 Strikes and you're out policy- 3 complaints will result in removal from the league. If a player is breaking one of the rules, let them know. If they continue, save a couple of the video highlights and send me a pm.
c) Multiple restarts against cpu controlled teams will not be allowed.
d) Rules may be added or amended at anytime.

7/18/2011 7:14:32 PM

just an fyi, i have been browsing the EA forum topic where people post when they discover bugs, glitches, etc...apparently a number of people are having issues with the game freezing with custom rosters, so heads up

7/18/2011 8:06:01 PM

you goofed on #10.

7/18/2011 8:17:40 PM

is everybody trying to download the dynasty file at once or something?

7/18/2011 8:25:15 PM

Who do I play?

7/18/2011 8:32:55 PM

ECU's QB is a 94 in this game. I've seen him play half a dozen times in person and he's closer to a 74. He just puts up big numbers because they throw every play. East coast Texas Tech.

7/18/2011 8:42:12 PM

Somebody gave me the business with him earlier

7/18/2011 8:43:56 PM

UF has their way with VT at the Swamp, 28-7.

Fuck Will Demps.

7/18/2011 9:00:44 PM

Clemson travels to Oxford, MS and wins 13-12 in a defensive struggle. Both teams exchanged field goals throughout the game with the Rebels holding the late 4th quarter advantage 12-6 and less than 2 min on the clock. Hope started to dwindle among the Clemson faithful but a 39 yard kickoff return by Jaron Brown gave the Tiger offense good field position near the 50yd line. A little luck and blown coverage allowed a Tajh Boyd to connect with Sr Receiver Marquan Jones for 44yds putting the Tigers inside the Ole Miss 5 yd line. Andre Ellington scores the game winning touchdown on a 4yd run putting the Tigers ahead for good.

Clemson- 13
Ole Miss-12

Up Next: Clemson continues their road journey as they travel to a hostile Lane Stadium to take on the Hokies



[Edited on July 18, 2011 at 9:14 PM. Reason : Sidenote- Clemson's playbook sucks balls.]

7/18/2011 9:08:56 PM

if Demps gets hurt I will be screwed. he is my entire offense

7/18/2011 9:11:42 PM

Demps is INSANE in the damn game... they made him WAAAAYYYY too good at breaking tackles and running over people. He's basically Bo Jackson but faster

7/18/2011 9:15:40 PM

How long are we gonna keep the weeks to?

7/18/2011 9:23:19 PM

Devils pick off Garcia's balls, but can't beat Cocks

The Real Carolina beats Duke 10-0 in Columbia despite some costly penalties and a couple of interceptions. Lattimore carries for 109 yards and a score, Senior DT Travian Robinson has 3.5 sacks.

In homage to his former school, Coach Spurrier, aka Fat Sendek, elected to kneel the ball on 3 consecutive downs inside Duke's 30 yard line late in the 4th. When asked about the decision, the Old Bald Coach replied "only for my Dukies...only for Dukies will I pull back my Cocks"

7/18/2011 9:32:36 PM

ha so aside from demps being a beast, we all suck.

7/18/2011 9:35:58 PM

"How long are we gonna keep the weeks to?"

I don't understand the question.

7/18/2011 9:50:43 PM

its a shame EA censors one of my team's nicknames in the post-game stories

7/18/2011 9:51:06 PM

Quote :

"I don't understand the question."

Guessing he means how many days do people have to play their games. Looks like UGA @ Penn State and Miami @ NC State are the only user-user games left

7/18/2011 9:53:50 PM

If that's the question, I'll give everyone a couple days. You should at least check in on this thread if you can't play within a day or two.

7/18/2011 9:55:43 PM

You took OU off my schedule?

And I'm gonna fire my AD for scheduling a game at ECU

[Edited on July 18, 2011 at 10:12 PM. Reason : Only four user v. user games?]

[Edited on July 18, 2011 at 10:18 PM. Reason : restarting after the kickoff because I forgot to select my playbook]

7/18/2011 10:10:51 PM

The schedules reset a few days ago and I had to redo them. I thought for sure UK was on your schedule. My bad.

7/18/2011 10:18:45 PM

thats bullshit ernie

[Edited on July 18, 2011 at 10:20 PM. Reason : restarting]

7/18/2011 10:20:15 PM

You're bullshit

New game in the rain

First play of the season is a goddamn interception

Get fucked, EJ Manuel

7/18/2011 10:21:48 PM

3rd and goal from the 6, I double tap A and loft a 94 yard pick six

--

FSU holds on for the 24-17 win over Syracuse

Chris Thompson runs for three TDs and shit ton of yards, Manuel is junk, defense picks up five or six sacks.

[Edited on July 18, 2011 at 11:03 PM. Reason : ]

7/18/2011 10:57:45 PM

It only took you 2 restarts

7/18/2011 11:29:55 PM

Nah, I restarted four more times

Syracuse kept scoring quick

And one time Thompson tore his ACL

7/18/2011 11:32:32 PM

^^
I had to restart a game in my other dynasty yesterday. Just did it once, but it displayed it as two restarts. Same for another player in the league.

7/18/2011 11:35:54 PM

Yeah, I just noticed that

I only restarted once and it was right after the opening kickoff (which I returned to the 45). I would have played on if I had FSU's playbook, but it was the Multiple book somehow -- wishbone and shit.

7/18/2011 11:37:33 PM

by "and shit" you mean ace, i and shotgun

7/18/2011 11:56:35 PM

Three Ace formations

Are you done? If not, hey now give him a fucking warning or something.

7/19/2011 12:10:00 AM

How about a warning for fucking cheating

[Edited on July 19, 2011 at 12:12 AM. Reason : or we can just restart anytime we feel like we don't like our playbook]

7/19/2011 12:11:52 AM

sometimes if you Ask Coach, Spurrier will call Flea Flickers from inside his own 10 yard line

7/19/2011 12:12:35 AM

Real talk

E Man starts this shit again and I'm out of the league

I don't know why he's a part of this to begin with, but this is fucking retarded

[Edited on July 19, 2011 at 12:16 AM. Reason : Motherfuckers trying to have fun with a video game and he's a cunt every step of the way]

7/19/2011 12:15:25 AM

Ease up, EMAN.

7/19/2011 12:17:25 AM

and I can expect him to ease up on me?

7/19/2011 12:19:39 AM

No

7/19/2011 12:19:53 AM

Penn State and UGA will try to have their game played tomorrow afternoon. Neither of us can play after 7pm though, so we will need to catch each other on here.

iceman, i won't be home from work until after 5:30 pm at the earliest.

7/19/2011 1:55:41 AM

Steven when you trying to play? I got pretty much all of tonight, tomorrow I'm a little busier but can play between 5-7

7/19/2011 7:53:51 AM

lol. Think the online stats are screwed. Lists the stats for the UF-VT game under Tennessee-USF

7/19/2011 8:55:04 AM

woot! got an 4* C commit last night...

btw the online recruiting is MUCH better than it was last year.

7/19/2011 9:47:16 AM

i just got off work, im game whenever

7/19/2011 2:35:21 PM

Miami- 31
NCSU- 7

Miami
J Harris- 5/9 52 yards 1 TD

Miller- 16 rushes for 105 yards 2 TDs

NCSU
S. Glennon- 13/32 169 yards 1 TD 2 INT

Greene- 10 rushes for 42 yards

Bryan- 4 catches 101 yards


Game was a lot closer than score shows...field position was a big key to this game.

7/19/2011 5:40:24 PM

in my offline dynasty RW (cpu controlled team) is blowing away the competition for the Heisman... has something like 38 passing TDs, 10 Rushing, and 2 INTs

7/19/2011 5:41:46 PM

Not happy at all with Stevens sportsmanship..... The only reason I called timeouts at the end was because you weren' using the chew clock and you weren't downing the ball. So he goes and hits a fg as time expires making in 31-7

Not to mention multiple run arounds with Jacory... it didn't alaways work out for you but you got a couple key first downs out of it.

Kind of got screwed in the long run, yes I threw a pick 6 in the third quarter on the 10 yd line, but the run where you bowled off Manning is bullshit, that pretty much sealed the deal (along with the 10 yd leaping int when I'm throwing to a wide open George Bryan).

Hey now I would keep an eye on the Jacory Harris scrambles for the rest of the season. The problem may fix itself, I did knock him out for a couple of plays.

Oh, and my WRs dropped alot of easy passes.

All and all I should have played better, but the game was much close than the score suggests
