Let's Breakdown the College Football 25 Trailer!

My thoughts breaking down the recent trailer for EA's College Football 25, along with my thoughts on the other recently announced features such as Dynasty Mode and Team Builder.

[@TheMcD]

I feel like EA deserves zero benefit of the doubt after all these years. Any trailer and information they release is marketing. The proof of the game is in the playing.

[@SOFTDRINKTV]

That's why I suggest at the end not to pre-order, but wait and see

[@B1inded3agle__]

[@Ross5252jkvdd]

No company deserves zero benefit of the doubt 😂😂 But college football has always been fun to play

[@MrOdaddy2011]

There's no reason to assume it's nothing but a Madden reskin with it's focus on ultimate team and bare bone support for offline modes with monetization. You guys have to stop falling for EA and 2K they only care about your money, not making a good football game or simulation.

[@eduardopena5893]

I am with TheMcD here and I will take his point even further. There is nothing in this trailer that sells me on this game. I don't care about the fluff. I care about how the menus work (or don't work with tons of lag) and how the game plays on the field. Everything else is superfluous. Giving them credit for how the lighting and all looks when they flat out tell you this is pre-rendedered stuff in the egine and may not (meaning it won't) appear in the game, is silly. The main thing everyone wants to know is how it looks on the field in actual gameplay, and you didn't get any. What you got is what Madden always does. They just show you a bunch of nearly no linear jump cuts to hide what is really going on. If you look at the reverse play, the camera cuts behind the QB, then the RB, and then to I assume a receiver. If you watch closely enough, you see a defender that would have blown the play up disappear before your very eyes. This game is running on the stanky Frostbite engine and they have yet to do anything to correct ball trajectory. Why would they all of a sudden get it right now? And what would that say about the games that have been running on the Frostbite engine all long. Madden games could have done this by now, but they never did? Why? EA hasn't just lost the benefit of the doubt, they've earned themselves credible doubt. They've flat out lied to this community for years. Broken promises numerous times over, and they've just laughed all the way to the bank. Team Builder is also online only. That means when the servers go down, no more created teams. That's not what we want. I want the full game to be offline and not hidden behind an online server handshake. I want to be able to play a great game for years on end with all of its functions. Running through an online service means that there will be censoring. The wear and tear function from NFL Head Coach 09 is back. Yay. Will that play into Madden 25? Will recruits from this college game be able to be imported in draft classes to Madden 25? Will team builder be a thing in Madden 25? What about the coaching tree? How will recruiting work? How will scouting work? There is nothing in this trailer that convices me to buy it, much less pre order it for crazy money. They want me to pay $150 for this game, which I barely know anything about, and for Madden 25, and we don't even know anything about that game at all. Nope.

He's not as bad as guys like MMG, he's not promoting MUT in any way by opening up card packs, he just wants to spread the news about the games. Although I do think the Underdog partnership should come to an end since it won't really help anyone in any positive way since most gambling just leads to wanting to make even more money from gambling. Some people can play responsibly but I'm curious as to what that number is when people start winning big and then go on a two to three week losing streak.

Pre-rendered cutscenes with graphics and lighting we know aren't even going to be in the game. They tell you that right up front. Heavily chopped up game footage that again, isn't running on the actual game, just whatever they rendered in the engine for this specific purpose, with hyper fast, not necessary jump cuts to hide all of the things they don't want you to see. You don't see how players organically move together, how they tackle. and what the ball physics are really like. Not convinced. Slapping some lipstick cutscenes on a pig of a game is still a pig of a game.

NCAA 25 looks like it's going to be a vast improvement over Madden. The graphics, lighting, and atmosphere are leaps above any Madden. Just a shame EA isn't doing a PS4 version of NCAA 25. Although strangely are still putting Madden 25 on PS4.

[@dizdawgjr34]

Very good breakdown! The the presentation looks like it could potentially be amazing and maybe help them push Madden forward a little bit in that regard. A lot of the time was likely spent making new stadium models and player models. I think they had some people from the Revamped mod team working on the art direction, so that is promising as they tended to do a good job. Having 3 years to develop this would be enough time to have people working on actual gameplay as well and makes me wonder if the improvement in Maddens gameplay in 24 was them adding the adjustments with what they had done at the time for its launch.

My stepdad is 45 years old and the only game he ever played was NCAA and still plays the PS3 for that last title. He is only buying a PS5 for this new college football. It’s not fan boys it’s people that are passionate and enjoy college more then the NFL

Cautiously optimistic. There hasn't been a College Football game in years and we don't have any other game worth looking forward to. It just needs to capture the college atmosphere and be fun, that will be enough for me.

[@thegrandwizard1700]

This game is shaping up to be something incredible. Let’s hope EA does not screw it up by focusing too much on Ultimate Team or in-game micro transactions.

[@JerBuster77]

There are most definitely going to focus on Ultimate Team like they do in their other franchises.

All the versions of the game include Ultimate Team content

That ship sailed when the idea to make this got greenlit. I'd hope that the other modes aren't sabotaged over whatever gambling den they shove in.

Though the trailer is good, I like many other people are skeptical especially when it showed the MUT stuff at the end of trailer. Also, props to you for adding NCAA 08 menu music. It honestly should have been used for this trailer tbh.

I mainly game on PC. I do however have a Series S for console games. This will tempt me to finally bite on a PS5 tho. I'll use my EA Play free trial and see how it is. But I am super hyped for this!!!

[@qualityesports7802]

It's going to be the same cheap, buggy, cheesy animation BS gameplay that has plagued Madden for the better part of a decade. Sorry to be a party pooper, but if they can't be bothered to create a decent game for their flagship series, what makes you think they will dedicate the time, money and resources to completely reinvent the wheel on a spin-off title?

[@Bravesfan12345]

No one cares about the gameplay. The main thing ncaa 14 fans care about is the replay-ability of dynasty, online dynasty, and rtg

The old school NCAA music brings back so many memories. Hopefully we’ll get some of the old menu music in the game.
