Re: A Look Ahead to NCAA Football 2010
Position changes need work. When I move my 85 speed halfback who is too slow for my offense to fullback he shouldn't turn into a 65 speed fullback. Speed should never change no matter where you move players. Only awareness. I can't stand trying to move my 2nd string fast outside line backer to a pass rush specialist DE only to see his speed drop from 88 to like 70. Speed shouldn't change. I would think that would be an easy fix.
I also like the idea of adding assistant coaches to dynasty mode and being able to develop staff chemistry to where all of your players can see awareness boosts more quickly because they have been under the same staff for so long. Or you bring in a new coordinator because your west coast offense wasn't getting results so you bring in a spread guru and all of your players take awareness hits because they are learning a new offense. Also maybe your offensive, defensive, and special teams coordinators could designate 10 prospects they want for their offense or defense in recruiting. Maybe in the prospect database these recruits names can be in red because they are the coordinators recommended or something. And spread guys would want speed at receiver, running backs who can catch the ball and quarterbacks who are mobile and your west coast guys want tall receivers and a dependable all around back as well as a pro style passer. And I would want the defensive thing to work the same way. A 3-4 guy would want more linebackers or coordinator who likes aggressive man defense would want corners with high man and press ratings while your zone guys want corners with more awareness and better zone coverage. Maybe bringing in your coordinators guys would make him happy and more willing to stay with the program rather than leave for a head coaching job. Also I think if you constantly have coordinators leave for head coaching jobs then you would be a more appealing school for coordinators to come too because they know thats there best chance to kick start their career. I understand all that would be difficult to do but seems like maybe it could be added in the future.
But most importantly and more realistically I just want to see FCS and create a school back and the battle in the trenches needs to be much more realistic as well as WR and DB interaction. Those are the most important things. Gameplay will always come first in my book. The next most important thing to me would be presentation. After a hard fought season in the SEC I want to feel like the SEC championship game is special. Not just some other game. I don't want my games against Ole Miss and Miss State to feel like my games against LSU, Georgia, and Alabama if I'm Auburn.
Also in recruiting I think if you sign a player from a town then other players from that town should get some interest in you. Since EA can't put in high school towns should work like high schools. If I sign a lot of players out of a certain town on a regular basis then I think players from those towns should have me at a high interest on a regular basis. Now of course there would always be exceptions because not every athlete wants to sign at the same school as his teammate or the same school that the best player at his school from last year went to. I'm just saying if I sign a 4 star QB out of Tallahassee to Auburn then maybe the 3 star receiver or the 4 star tackle from that same town gets more interest in my school.
I also like the idea of being able to generate a stronger budget to upgrade your stadium and add on to it or to build better practice facilities like you could in college baseball a few years ago.
Another thing I would like to see is that when you play a true freshman quarterback that you can't use your whole playbook right away. Maybe you could unlock more plays each week and by week 8 you would have the whole playbook at your hands. I would like to see a reason for you to play your 84 redshirt senior QB over your 82 true frosh. This way you could maybe give your true frosh some snaps every now and then so he can unlock more plays. I would just like to have a reason to bring my back ups in during a 4th quarter blowout instead of just running up stats.
I think team specific entrances would be amazing. I would love to see Auburns Eagle fly. Bringing back the spring game would be cool.
Anyways all these are just ideas. Position changes fixed, FCS and create a school added, battle of the trenches improvements, AI improvements, sliders that actually work, more sliders, better WR and DB interactions, and much improved pursuit angles. All of that has to happen IMO.
Also I think mascot games should be done away with. I hate all the new celebrations. At Auburn games Aubie goes around the stadium interacting with fans. He doesn't sit in the endzone waiting to celebrate with players. In real football there would be flags everywhere. I wish EA would not spend time on dumb things like mascots dancing or celebrating with players which never happens and worry more about gameplay or additions in dynasty mode instead of leaving it the same every year. I could care less about the cheerleaders or the mascots or the mascot games.
