NCAA 10 Questions

[pounddarock]

Dynasty mode now allows you to purchase "Dynasty Accelerators" which can help you get ahead. They range from a recruiting advisor to buying an extra pipeline state. I don't think I'd spend real money on a dynasty... but EA sure looks like they want to make more money...

The only reason I can see someone paying for these is if you can use them in the ONLINE dynasties? Anyone know.. and if you can, can you disallow them as the OD commish?

From what read about the feature on gamespot it was specifically sold for OD advantages, so I dont think it is a feature you can disallow.. But i dont have the game.. so dont quote me.. Just going by what I read on gamespot

A couple of things I noticed tonight:

For those of you that have played the demo, there are no options to change the camera angle. Prior to snapping the ball on offense, it seems like your closer to the quarterback, or they just moved the camera a little further up (from a higher position).......that is what it feels to me. Pre play camera angle where you see your routes is overhead, which will take time getting used too. The demo has the same views. When you throw the ball, the camera will trail it almost like it is zooming in........but if the defender knocks it down or intercepts it, the camera zooms in quick to the defender and the back of him. Then it returns to the front..........it is pretty fast. It will take time, but overall, the look of the game makes you feel your closer to the action.

Pass rush is there on Heisman, and if you have a decent quarterback with a good rating, he will get that ball in between defenders pretty accurately. But if there is traffic, the player will drop the ball as if the defender stopped him short of completing the catch.....which is pretty nice. Some people will bitch on how the defender did not knock down the pass. But I played with Clemson against Arizona State, East Carolina against Arizona, Western Michigan against Central Michigan..........and all the quarterbacks were accurate with the throws. If your pressured and forced to run or have to hurry the pass, your quarterback will throw an inaccurate pass. The flow of the passing game is nice.........running is still being worked out.

I have not played AA or an online game yet, as I am busy looking at the rosters of each team. I can tell you: North Carolina, Ole Miss, Oregon, Oregon State, Penn State, Cal, and Florida State with the normal high ranked programs are going to be highly wanted teams. Those teams are stacked. I hate to say it, BigMike will dominate with the best team on the game. Go ahead and crown him........

The mobile quarterback is fast with the option due to the speed and flow of the offense. Out of thirty pitches against the computer, there were two really late ones, nothing to worry about. If the quarterback is pressured and gets into the open, remember the pause when the player gets to the line of scrimmage? It is still there, but much smoother now.

Cheerleaders and referee are the exact same models from 09.........no change. Environments look richer, as the graphics look a little bit enhanced.........or for some of you, you may not see the difference. I do, may be due to the camera angles.

Overall, it is a smooth game offline with the graphics and smoothness of the offense. It seems like you can control the defensive player easier........I like it, as it feels like a different game to me compared to 09. I only saw Cnasty in the room, as he was getting ready to play another player, but no one is online at all.

nice write up rain

I still have the same ugly cheerleader on my favorite team showing up each time it is loading into a game mode. At least they could of updated the cheerleader for Clemson......same as 09.

Smart ass, at least you enjoyed the cheerleaders with the championship that season!

Any info on Teambuilder yet? Anyone download any teams or anything?

I have downloaded both of my teams. It was pretty easy to do. Have to make sure you type in the correct letters and numbers on the game. Teams look great on the TV. I found a couple of things I need to correct on mine and don't thing there will be a problem dropping the teams from the slots, updating, and then bringing them back in.

I just looked through your 29 teams. You sir are a graphical design genius.

Very cool

My favorites being the Rattlers and Snowhawks.

[jsence2]

Corey, can I get an answer?

[Cnasty]

Corey, can I get basic ratings on four guys from UK?

CB Trevard Lindley (#32)
MLB Micah Johnson (should be #4, might be #11)
DE Jeremy Jarmon (#99)

And then, let me know the ovr/spd/TP/TA for Morgan Newton, he'll be a freshman scrambling QB.

#32 95OVR 93SPD

No #11 or #4 at MLB

MLB #55 81OVR 80SPD
MLB #43 70 OVR 80SPD

DE #99 78OVR 76 SPD IMPACT

QB #12 83OVR 87SPD 90THP 78THA

[jsence2]

Ugh....EA NEVER gets Johnson right--not his number (he's never worn 55 at UK) OR his ratings (first-team All-SEC despite missing like three games, and he gets an 81 overall )

VT, you guys need to hire people who can read


One more question Corey....was Newton the top QB on the depth chart, or was it Hartline (#4) or Massakowski (the other freshman)? Thanks for the info man!

[Cnasty]

He was second on the depth chart.

[BFiVL]

Can someone please post all of Alabama's Freshman and what they are rated. Thanks in advance.

[BIGmike]

I just played Dray (he was using Stanford) and Toby Gerhart, who ran for over 1,000 yards and 15 or so TDs, was no where to be found.

/fingers crossed on the roster patch being correct.

[ajalves]

how the hell does half the league have the game already?

[jsence2]

Hart, how much did MSU lose in terms of talent? That might factor in.

Sounds like UK's gonna be hit or miss--I'm glad Jarmon made the game (he was ruled ineligible due to accidentally taking a dietary supplement to lose weight for a New Year's resolution w/o asking UK trainers) even though he's under-rated, and I'm stoked that Lindley got rated a 95. Also looking forward to running some offense with Newton at QB

Shel, what is this roster patch?

[shel311]

Shel, what is this roster patch?

hart explained it in the post below yours perfectly.

Basically, the day the game comes out, you will HAVE to do an update, download the update, and it will update these god awful rosters we have with the correct rosters. At least that's what EA is telling us, lol.
