EA SPORTS™ College Football 27

Game just crashes repeatedly, cant even get past the intro BS haha. brutal

I've got 29 hours in the Road to Glory mode as of review time. I'm a tourist when it comes to sports games 100%. There is something inherently broken about receiver AI in this game, and it's especially apparent when Stadium pulse is not in your favor against a much worse team. A 69 overall corner will always jump out routes, your receivers don't fight for curls so defenders will just stand in front of them, safeties will drop the instance throw a dig, gain a 5 foot vertical and pick the ball off, and the most frustrating part: you can't even call your own plays. They added a "player play change" button and it literally just adds one more play selection. You basically just have to target tight ends on slant routes, and you're out of luck if the coach decides not to give you the option of running slants. And I think the biggest issue really is stadium pulse. One of effects of stadium pulse is a zoom in on the crowd screaming when you're calling a play. you can't change the volume of it, so it blows out my speakers whenever it happens. False starts are far too common (like... 5-6+ a game in a loud stadium, and when you're playing 5 minute quarters that's like every drive). I realize there should be an advantage for home teams, but it feels like you're playing against NFL level secondaries, which is literally insane coming out of a team with a 4-7 record playing at home. It's just frustrating. I genuinely cannot tell if I'm missing a mechanic or if the game just has designated away games in big stadiums as automatic losses.

Huge improvements such as the coach tree, NIL/transfer portal, recruiting, dynasty points. The gameplay feels pretty good as well. The interception rate needs tweaking and the coaching carousel is very unrealistic but overall, very nice to see improvements to the game, potential for a lot of features to be added and expanded on with updates and new releases

good

I have played both 25 and 26 extensively and this is by far the worst of the 3. Offense feels as dull as Defense used to due to the CPU being tuned way too high. Receiver's in the 90 overalls are getting locked down by linebackers. You have about 2.5-3 seconds to throw as your oline is useless regardless of how well you have recruited and developed which isnt enough time for the majority of plays to develop. Receivers just randomly quit running their routes causing ints when you try to throw them open. That is not even scratching the surface of all of the bugs in the game. I would recommend waiting for mods to be developed to fix this pile and a massive discount before I would recommend picking this up.

this is by far the worst college football game ever made. Dynasty games are so scripted it makes me want to stab my eyes out with a fork

never played a football game that felt as unfair as this one. feels like every single mechanic in the game is against the player. waited 2 years for college football to come to pc and its this trash.

This game is glitchy which doesnt allow for fun game play
