NCAA Football 14 Presentation Video with Ben Haumiller Introduces Skills Trainer

Okay, so this really disappointed me, when I read skills trainer, I was thinking it was sort of like assistant coaches for dynasty where you focused on a style during that week for practice or during a game when a change of quarter, or timeout you focused on something during that time out to increase the skills of your team for the next quarter/rest of the series, or next game during dynasty.

Same here. I was hoping it was tied into practice progression during dynasty. I'm still holding out hope (very very slim shoestring of hope) that it might prove to be once the dynasty playbook drops.

I like how Ben stated that the huge upgrade was base layers and gloves and that they have made no mention of having upgraded the helmets or face masks. From what I have seen in the photos they have just recycled all of the helmets and face masks from 13. Which is frustrating, because the helmets and face masks they had and still have are out of date or missing. A number of face masks were not designed correctly and there there are a number that are still missing from the game.

I hate how they try to preach Authenticity, but they have not gotten better in this area at all over the past 3 years.

They still have some of the same out of date helmets and face masks from NCAA football 10 which is ridiculous.

Gloves and base layers are great and have been requested for some time now, but the helmets and face masks are just as important, because this area is evolving as well with regards to player safety.

yea it's silly of us to expect that it'd be tied into some sort of actual training that has an impact on your players, you know, the way NBA 2k has different practice drills you can do for developmental points. In typical EA fashion it's nothing more than glorified practice mode with a shiny new Nike facility. YIPPY!
