Some things sound pretty cool as long as they implement them well. Momentum can be cool, spring games will probably be stupid. Can't wait for new screens.

I'd like to see more control over how the players improve in the off-season. For instance, maybe you break down the work-outs by position. For receivers, you get them to work on running routes 40% of the time, sprints 30% of the time, conditioning and strength workouts 20 % of the time, and watching film to help out awareness 10% of the time. I've recruited tight ends who were great tight ends, but didn't play much because I'd play in 4 and 5-receiver sets most of the time, and thought that if I could get them faster, I could make decent receivers out of them.

And maybe in the student-athlete mode (I'm guessing it's the "updated" version of Race for the Heisman), you can pick your own off-season workout routine.

That's all I've got to say about that.

I hope they will eventually give us an Army All-American HS game. Spring game is nice, but I'd really like to be able to test drive some potential recruits.

Edit: Oh, and the ability to change your stadium in dynasty would be nice. If I start out with a small school and a small stadium, I'm stuck with a small stadium even as a powerhouse. If I go big, it just looks odd to see a cupcake in a massive stadium.

I always wanted that also. Often Ohio State or UF is too easy to start with, so I'll start with USF or OhioU and try to work my way up. USF plays at the Tampa Bucs stadium, so that is fine, but after 5 years of consecutive Bobcats National Championships, it was a bit crazy to think they students still only have a spectator mound in the endzone :wink:

The changes to the game sound great. I didn't buy NCAA last year because I didn't think there were enough changes to warrant a new version, but this seems to be something that I'll enjoy. I like your idea for a US Army High School game also. They should televise the Heisman ceremony as well.

That screen of the Shoe' is amazing. The green is probably b/c of who we are playing and thier fans being in those seats, but as we know there will never be that many visiting fans in one section.:biggrin:

I like the addition of the spring game and spring drills being able to up your ratings.

I hope they make it so in Dynasty mode, the scUM-OSU game is always played at 1:00 PM.

Because in last years game, OSU(Me) was ranked #1 and scUM was #2. The game was at scUM that year and it was played at night.

Problem is...

Michigan Stadium DOES NOT have lighting. But mysterly, the field was lighted.

And the fact that the game is never played at night.
