NCAA Football 11 Blog: ESPN Integration

[canes21]

The people that use Broadcast camera are usually he ones that play in coach mode. There are some though, like me that would try to play in the view. It really wasn't that hard unless you tried a pass that was over 15 yards. You just had to read the coverage pre-snap, but it was Madden so that didn't always work too well.

And to people asking for CBS... Why? The only time that would be used is for SEC games and a select few Bowl games. I just don't see the point in adding another presentation that covers just 12 teams out of 120. I'd say that not even 50% of NCAA buyers use SEC teams. It may be a higher number compared to other conferences, but I'd say the Big 12 or Big 10 get as many users that play with them too. And judging by Season Showdown, there is a lot of Virginia fans too.... Just my view on it

Yeah I'd rather just have ESPN and detailed commentary than add in CBS, which takes up memory, when it's not used for that many games. I know this is an SEC heavy board but still, you gotta realize only 2 out of 100 or so games are played on CBS every week, the majority of the major games and Bowl Games are played on ESPN/ABC.

+1 for WatsonTiger's idea. The ability to change game times would be nice for me, and extremely easy to implement I would think.

And considering you can do that for exhibition games it should be pretty simple.

Anyone know when the next utopia podcast is?

The more the better. I don't play as SEC teams usually, but it would be cool to have all the networks that we could get don't you think? When GTech rolls into Athens I'd like to have it be on CBS.

Not a gamekiller. I like the ESPN integration a lot. I wish we had em all. Wish we could get the Raycoms and the Fox College Sports channels as well, BigTenNetwork, SECtv, you name it, but that will never happen.

Adding cbs for just a few teams seems a bit silly to me. Now that we have sec on espn it's makes more sense to add either espn2 or abc. That way it covers all teams from every conf.

But CBS only covers a few teams. yea, it'd be cool to have, but why waste a lot of space on a network that I will almost never see as a Miami fan?
