Anyone miss last gen recruiting?

I sure do. The format was alot better it seemed with the US Map being the primary view so you can see your state and pipelines. It gave me more of a need or feel to recruit in state. I wish they would've carried it over to this gen and added stuff like recruiting hotbeds, a sim'd list of next years top 15 or so players in each state after you finish signing your class.

This is a big reason I'm glad I'm still going with the Ps2 version.

Re: Anyone miss last gen recruiting?

Recruiting needs to have a fine balance.

If it is too simplistic, we won't find any depth, if it is too complicated people will find it cumbersome

I like the fact that you can use the filtering criteria to find players that fit your team's mold - but I do agree that getting players from your pipeline states should have some priority.

I definitely miss the old style recruiting, new style is so boring.

Also one of the reasons I stayed with PS2. I just liked the simplicity of assigning points to a handful of guys during the year and the slightly more detailed post-season recruiting with the 5 weeks. It obviously wasn't the most realistic but it broke up the seasons nicely.

Liked the old gen, but prefer the new gen recruiting. It's not totally realistic, but I enjoy the complexity of it. Or the attempt at complexity. I don't think it should be too easy or a necessarily quick process. But then again, I also spend the offseasons looking at different recruiting sites and poring over recruit numbers, so I'm a dork that way.

I like both last gen & next gen, but for me it just needs more elements... camps, national signing day, elite 11, high school all american games to really pull you in, but.......
