Yeah but you can't edit ratings in dynasty mode.

I can't get over how ****ty the logos on the field look. Absolutely terrible.

Maybe I'm missing something, and forgive me for not searching through this gigantic thread (I've searched, but found nothing), but can you not use the d-pad to move anymore on PS3?

Not sure if anyone else has found it, but playing as Oregon when calling tight punt Texas always aligns like you are going for it on 4th instead of sending out the punt return unit. Haven't tried it with any other team yet.

2 things that bugged me the play arc is visible and the fact that sometimes the yellow route line was waggling back and forth

SO i decided to punt every time I got the ball on 1st down just to see them have more plays ( i didn't take any offensive snaps). Saw the Oregon QB scramble once in each game. Crushed all but one of their option plays with ease. QB seemed to think he had 10 seconds in the pocket and payed with getting sacked a lot. Same problem as in past with screens , CPU/AI will call the HB screen then not pass to him and get sacked or try to throw to a WR downfield when there is no pocket to step up in. Only success they really had was in normal running plays. First game was 10-0 to Oregon the second was 16-0 Texas (me) blocked a punt out the endzone for 2 pts when i had them pegged at the 1yd line , and returned two fumbles. Now some of the above things can hopefully be fixed with sliders and patch. BUT here's the kicker. I only played defense like i said but never took control of any player just called the formation and play, like a D coordinator. But I only ever called the same play in every formation 2 under man. If i can destroy the CPU/AI just calling the same play wrecking their option run game how does this bode for the final game. I scored 16 pts in one game without even taking 1 offensive snap, how can that be ? Not impressed.

How many times are you going to copy and paste this? I've counted three so far.

As far as the demo, I'm loving the fact that you really have to pay attention to defense this year. The days of hiking the ball and thoughtlessly chucking it to a planned receiver are over. If the defense is sending an extra blocker and you don't adjust it's sack city. Also, if you're a "throw it up and pray" type of guy you can expect to throw plenty of picks. Good stuff.

Wow this game is so easy on defense...
