Benji just buy your games from the online store on your Xbox and download it, you don’t need to go to GameStop.

Also had a huge glitch playing online against another person. They went for it on fourth and goal from the 3 yard line...stuffed them(it was actually Miami I was playing which was lol) and then they gave me the ball at the Miami 3yard line the next series.

I've had dudes catch a kickoff at the 5, run backwards and then get tackled in the endzone for a touchback

Those ASG uniforms last night took me back to my Earl Weaver Baseball playing days.

So I played last night and I have to say, I was marginally disappointed. I'm sure I'll feel better once I get hold of gameplay. I don't love the K-State playbook, the playbook in general. I'm getting delay of game, out the ass. I played flood aggie on All American, that's the mode I played on '14 and got absolutely murdered. I played them again on varsity and completely turned the tables. It's overall much harder to play.

The stadium looks amazing, they have the pyro after scores too, which is cool. No Willie and the weird ass jazz band rendition of the fight song and wabash was beyond a bummer. They do have sandstorm but it's very underwhelming.

We overhyped this game so the initial impressions are kind of meh, but it will get better the more it gets played.

I really like the playbook feature of calling a play for a certain player.

Agreed but averys is too limited.

Really don't like our defensive playbook. The offensive is a little better but doesn't feel like ours at all. Need to find some plays online and favorite them. Currently I'm just doing coaches suggestions to get an idea of the plays

Running is much easier imo but that's maybe due to our dudes.

Defense is too bendy breaky although played my first online game and it was much tougher with lots of picks for me and the other dude.

At one point in 2012 I was the 333rd ranked player on however Xbox determined their ranking (I quickly fell back down to the 1,000's where I normally was), played exclusively with K-State and just Snyder balled people to death. Slow grinding offense featuring plenty of CK7 Power runs and some deep shots. The defense was bend but don't break, shorten the game and win by 3-7 against better teams.

I'm never getting back there but I'm at least going to get good enough to be over .500 in online play.


I knew a guy that played EA Hockey just to get really good and high rated. I learned that you could sell your team or whatever and weirdos would buy a good team as opposed to grinding themselves. He did this for a long time and sold his team on EBay or whatever and the buyer did a charge back so he lost his team and never got paid. I still laugh about that to this day.

Avery Johnson - shotgun qb zone
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

I'm just dropping back on about any running play and running around the DE with him and 20+ yards. Seems OP but then I remember watching him in real life.

The field goals are entirely too complex and unforgiving on the angles.

Fixed my complaint about the defensive packages by not running 3-3-5 Defense with K-state and moving it to "multiple"

3-3-5 is garbage

There's a stretch running play that is good for about 15 every time I run it (although it's susceptible to holding calls).  Currently I'm doing what Dimel couldn't, building up UTEP into a contender

Also 3-3-5 will be a lot better when I recruit better d backs

Ha, I never really played video games much, but did want to play the new CFB game. Was on vacation when it came out so I just went down to download it for Lil SF and couldn't figure it out. Just learned that I have to buy a new Xbox to play. He doesn't really play that much and I just got this xbox one like 3 years ago. Guess I should have held out for the newer one. Sorry Lil Bud, not happening.  :frown:

Yeah, I know, I just don't follow it much. I remember asking some people when I bought the Xbox one as it was pretty hard to find the S and they said i'd be fine. Seems I was wrong and should have waited a bit to find one.

To be honest, you're really not missing much. Maybe patches will make it better but this is an unfinished beta level game right now. Unfortunately this has become the standard for basically all aaa titles.
