NCAA Basketball 10 Available, Post Impressions Here

CB you said there was no update, yet this is what I got from a community leader with the game early

Quote:

Hey man, turns out there was an update yesterday. Not sure how much the rosters got affected by it. I noticed that 2 UK players went up and down 1 point each overall. You can also select the option to "download changes in appearance" which is something I didn't know EA was doing this year. Update brought real authentic schedules too. So after the update...any Dynasty you start will in fact have the correct schedules. Sorry for misleading you a few days ago, but didn't know the update would fix it.

New here.. but Im curious about player progression in dynasty. I heard a lot about too many 5 star recruits in NCAA 09, but did 09 also have a progression problem? AND if so, has it been adjusted?

Anyone with knowledge of small schools/mid majors and has the game, how are those teams rated (individually). I like to play with the small schools and if they aren't represented accurately I won't even bother with the game. It also shows attention to detail.

were was that post made regarding the update?

I don't know if its just me, but I'm not feelin the whole new motion offense thing. I just can't get it to work when I set it up. I do better when I just dribble around and penetrate and kick it out or find an open man on my own without setting up the offense.

Hopefully it'll get easier and work better as I play more games.

I honestly hope they add nothing to in-game presentation next year. That way they can focus their efforts on customization, player individualism, and dynasty mode.

It seems like the team can only focus on improving one or two major aspects of the game per year, but the improvements they make are awesome.

CB,
Glad you got the game. I have a couple of questions:

1. Do you notice a lot of differentiation between players on your team or does everyone pretty much play the same? I'm especially concerned about bench guys being just as good as starters.

2. How is the ESPN commentary compared to the CBS commentary?

3. Just so I understand it, there's no indicator at all when the CPU has the ball? It doesn't even list a position? Man, that's tough especially if you are playing a team you are not familiar with.

4. How deep are the playbooks for each team and do teams actually play to their strengths? I know motion is a big part of the game this year, but I want to know if the run-and-gun teams play the way they should.

Thanks for the reply!
