We are estimating 750,000 teams will be created. We are well ahead of where we thought we would be.

The casual audience isn't going to know about it until they load the game in and see it on the menu.
Exactly. We are very encouraged by the amount of teams that have been created!

Same thing for me... just to much work for me to have any interest.
It's barely any work at all, you'd know this if you tried it.

If it were on the game disc or included as an extra disc with the game I might play with it for a couple of hours.
then it wouldn't be any where near as good as it is and you wouldn't be able to make authentic looking teams so it'd basically be a huge waste of time.

I just don't see the casual gamer wanting to spend time with team builder. Casual gamers pick up a game, play for a couple of weeks and trade the game in.
I disagree, but obviously time will tell

Adam, any chance you could tell us how many users have made at least one team?

But 750,000 is a relatively low number when you start looking at percentages. I am a businessman and I look at it like this. People using Team Builder are going to make at least 5 different teams. Lets limit this and say they make 3 each. With your number of 750,000 created teams, this is a relatively small percentage of people using this feature. This gives you 250,000 people using the Team Builder. If you only sell 1 million copies, you have only targeted 25% of your audience. Being the businessman I am, I want to satisfy as close to 100% as I can. This is especially so when you have people abandoning this game in record numbers this year.

750,000 created teams sounds like a lot, which it is a huge number, but when you talk of people actually using the program those numbers are low.

hcopenhagenh, here's a NCAA Strategies poll you may want to keep an eye on. http://www.ncaastrategies.com/utopia...ad.php?t=67947

LOL... Why? This poll is skewed.

Adaptive AI --- It is horrible in the demo so why would anyone look forward to it.

Art, Wind Socks, etc. Who cares about this stuff anyway?

Custom Conferences---- Again who really cares?

Defensive Keys--- I don't even understand this option.

Game Planning--- One of the dumbest features EA ever put into a game.

Improve Pursuit Angle--- Small item that should have been in the game in 2008

Improved OL/DL--- The demo shows it is still broken

Improved WR/DB Interaction--- It is still broken

Layered Blending--- This is really an option?

Player Lock--- Another wasted option.

Road to Glory--- Another dumb addition to this game even from the Race to the Heisman days. Also a feature that has been in the game for several years.

Season Showdown--- Yeah... another great feature.

Just a skewed poll. Heck I wouldn't even vote because nothing there interests me at all.

To let you know... I am glad you have this feature. But, there are a bunch of things that needed to be fixed before this feature was introduced. Same thing goes with OD from last year. This is the entire point I am trying to make. NCAA doesn't play like a football game. OL/DL blocking and interaction is horrendous. These things are huge because college football is built on schemes and there is no scheme in NCAA. It is just straight head on blocking. The entire engine needs to be rebuilt for this series. There are just a bunch of other things needed for this game to play and replicate football that it doesn't have now. All I am saying is fix features that effect close to 100% of the people. EA as it is now has turned a bunch of people off. I am predicting a decline in sales this year and EA will rub them off as a bad economy. I will attribute it to a bad game.

but again your missing something here. How about the number of people that will download a team someone else created. Even though these people aren't going in and making teams themselves they are still in fact using the feature.

Hey Steve, is it possible to maybe get a few screen shots of the logos on the field? This has been my biggest concern. I'm afraid the logos on the field may look jagged or off a bit..
