Just getting started listening to this.

- User games in online dynasty will not be on the ticker and will not be part of the studio updates.
- Scouting is not just a one week thing - some strategy involved with deciding your "hours"
- Teambuilder teams will not have ticker or studio updates either
- Tendency issues are fixed (scrambling QB, pocket passer not switching now)

This is pretty disappointing to see. I was hoping to see the ticker for ALL games.

When this is all over, can someone do a summary of this for me? I'm at work right now and can't listen to the podcast.

What else was mentioned in the pod cast?
Anything in regards to mock draft=>importing to madden and how that will work?

online dynasty WILL have the update just your team or the user control teams wont be on there
...but the updates from other games will be just like offline .....

One thing they said you can still do in offline dynasty is play multiple games in a week, which makes me happy.

On an interesting note, it sounds like a game will simulate and then if you don't like what you hear, you can still go back and play it.

That actually makes a lot of sense though, personally I agree with this design decision. Users can play their games at anytime during the week so it makes sense to just have the static CPU games running on the ticker and for studio updates whenever Users decide to play their games.

Only thing missing now is a weekly wrapup show with video highlights at least for User games, to bring it all together, imo. Also the pièce de résistance would be spectator mode for viewing other User's OD games on the console and web.
