Imported draft class pictures.

So this year E.A. has decided to give us actuall pictures for the the generated players in the game except for real rookies and UDFA's who didn't get their picture taken. I think this is good for the game and all but E.A. Made a mistake by using their pictures for the NCAA draft class. These are real people who for allot of them we know what they look like, especially the high profile players and our favorite college teams. This for me is kinda killing the imported class coupled with the horrible draft logic by the computer when we use them. I mean besides the fact they don't like look them at all allot of the white players are heavier set. Who wants a fake picture for a real player and have their star QB (Andrew Luck for example) looking like a 300 pound lineman. Is this bothering anybody else? I'm just going to use maddens generated rookies from now on because of it.

Its not EA's fault, they have no choice. They cant take pictures of the college players...... theyd have to pay them.

Oh no no, I get that lol. You see there is a reason why E.A. Left a blank picture for the real players in the game who never got one taken.... There would be a whole bunch of angry people playing the game if they saw a real player with one of maddens pctures that weren't them. So because we are using NCAA imported draft classes which represent REAL people, the same logic should be applied. It is just killing me to look at some of these guys who do exist and have Joe blows picture for them. It has ruined the realisticness of using the draft class. Isn't that what we aim for as fans... Especially here at O.S.

Im sorry, if I'm losing some people. What I'm trying to say is, just give us blank pictures for all the players imported from NCCA 12. 50 percent of the reason I purchased NCCA was for the draft classes. I don't want this ruined for such a stupid mistake.

Am I seriously the only one having a issue with these fake pictures being used for real players? I would be shocked if so

I see what you're saying, but I still prefer the fake pictures to the black outline. Honestly, there are a lot of high profile players that I couldn't pick out of a lineup because I only ever see them wearing a helmet.

I agree completely. It's absolutely stupid to represent a real person with someone else's picture.

It's making me actually get draft pics, instead of trading them for existing players. I absolutely LOVE what the did with the rookies profiles. I just traded up to get Nate potter. I LOVE THIS. I don't understand why you'd rather have a grey sillouhette instead of an actual face to look at. Having grey sillouhettes in the menus, and stat comparisons mid game is what really kills the game.

If someone uses 4+ years of NCAA classes then you'll be drafting fake players anyway. I suppose EA could add in at some point the choice when importing a class whether or not you want generated photos or silhouettes.
