So I’ve played all online modes so far on my 10hr trial, and I’m just gonna grade what is has been turned in. Of course they could improve the grade with some additional work and fix issues
CUT: C-
-Coins aren’t super hard to make if you grind solos but it’s early so really not much to buy if your NMS.
- There’s a Premium Field pass so even if you wanted to grind, spenders have more to win for the same work. Is what it is but I’m not a fan of that.
-You can’t see your opponents overall in H2H unless I’m missing something.
-Passing mechanics are weird to me. Seems like they ported Revamped into P&A so the passes kinda have more arc. Not necessarily a bad thing but gotta get used to it.
-Camera angles are bad and disorienting for me when you click to audible. The I use Wide settings but the game will put you in Standard a lot so I just changed to standard and now start the game with a down button as a work around because of the on field sub menu. Not a fan of that.
- Drops are insane, but it’s early and my team is ass so whatever.
-QBs are like Gold and there isn’t much to choose from. I’m running a cheap 78 until I pull a better one or something. Too expensive to upgrade atm.
Regs: F-
- Home team advantage is way overpowered for an online H2H mode.
- the game plays extremely slow and the current roster is definitely not close to what it should be imo.
- all of the gameplay issues in CUT are present in Regs which really make it worse. CFB 25 Regs was HOT for the first month. Not so much here.
- just a very disconnected feeling overall. The game plays you more than your playing the game.
- player models are bad again
Final Thoughts: Game feels more like Madden than it does CFB 25. That is a problem for me but might make MUT fans happy. I’ll try Dynasty when I get the full game and probably play that more than anything but if that’s the case, I can kinda do that in CFB 25 and play what feels like better game to me.
