Wouldn't be THAT hard. There were games on ps2 that had characters respond to your commands(socom)

Do people really care about those little schools and things like team enterances? I'm on board with the gameplay improvements like trench battles but who cares about that other crap? I mean really, things like team enterances are nice the first time you see it but once is enough as far I'm concerned. It's not worth the effort when there are major gameplay issues to fix first. With posts like that I'm starting to understand why EA focus's on the meaninless stuff they do instead of fixing the gameplay....maybe we're getting exactly what we're asking for every year from EA? Those things would be "nice to haves" if gameplay was dialed. But until we get that, those things are a complete waste of time to even talk about IMOP.

Focus on the offensive line vs. defensive line interaction, improve the CPU playcalling, impove the CPU QB AI when running the option and make it so the CPU QB throws the ball away when nobody is open and scrambles when their is pressure. That is all, like the poster above me said stop focusing on gimmicks or things like mascot games that people could care less about simple focus on making the core gameplay as realistic as possible.

Even though if you could maybe in include team entrances but focus on the gameplay first.

Also I know this may not be possible for 2010 but please use the Euphoria engine sometime in the near future. We are never going to have a true next gen football game until the engine is based on physics and not animations like the current one. The game should be governed by the law of physics because as we have seen some unrealistic things happen when the game is based on animations. Also never seeing the same tackle twice would be a great bonus.

Not to offend anyone in this thread because some ideas were good but alot are small petty things that are really pointless when you consider the work that needs to be put into the gameplay. Personally if they keeped the same graphics and features and fixed the gameplay issues I would be perfectly happy. I am personally sick and tired of all the gimmicks/ new feautures every year, I want great next-gen gameplay, the rest is really irrelevant to me.

I don't care about anything but offline dynasties so my views will reflect that.

- Get rid of mini-games and campus legend
- At a minimum add off., def., and sp. teams coordinators. I'd love to see it nailed down to even position coaches, and include them in the recruiting process.
- Include the ability to upgrade you facilities somehow. Maybe include donors you have to please, something to that effect.
- Expanded rosters, walk-on program
- Ability to create new rivalries. (If you move from the Sun-Belt to Big 12, you want big 12 rivalries mostly)
- Bring back create-a-team, and the FCS schools
- Bring back player discipline
- Make player size actually matter, right now it doesn't matter if my DE is 200 lbs or 270 lbs.
- Speed isn't all that matters in ratings, fix that please.

My .02 cents

none taken, honestly i haven't played it this year, i tried it last year, and could never get into it, maybe i should give it a shot just to say i tried

it would be nice to see refs on the field... and when you go for it when you have inches left and the spot is close they come out onto the field to measure

just atmosphere additions

(Mostly for campus legend on ps2)

1.Earlier I said to make it harder to gain yards,thought about it and came up with a simple solution-have the quarterback call the shots its to tempting to give your player the ball every down.2. Better graphics3. For social events let us pick what event we want to do and let us really do it.4.Better pre-game, halftime,and post-game crap.5.Make it possible for a little team to upset a big team.6.For a big rival game make it seem like a rival game.8. Whats up with the statiums always being sold out??!!
