NCAA Football 10 Rosters Issue

06:11 PM - June 10, 2009 by Russell_Kiniry_EA

Hey guys... so we are aware of the issue with no (or few) freshmen on some teams in TeamBuilder and yes the same issues are found on the NCAA 10 disc. Over the past few days, one of our top priorities has been investigating solutions.

The TeamBuilder teams require some data on the disc to set Depth Charts for every team created before they can be used in a game. For example if you use the Cupcake roster as a starting point, NCAA 10 will give you a default Depth Chart for the Cupcakes for your TeamBuilder team (which you can edit in game). This means any changes we make could cause some problems with teams already created using TeamBuilder. So we need to ensure we are taking to proper steps to correct the issues.

We understand the concerns with how this can affect Dynasty mode and Online Games, so we are working hard to have a solution in place before launch on July 14th.

That being the case, EA should just rename all the incomplete rosters into templates and add the completed rosters to the game and run with two sets of rosters. That's basically what they did anyway to a lesser extent, the Option Attack roster is the Georgia Tech roster.

Incomplete USC, Texas, Florida, Oklahoma, etc would be Powerhouse 2, Powerhouse 3, Powerhouse 4, etc.

Incomplete Texas Tech would be Spread Offense 2

Incomplete Washington State, Idaho, etc would be Cupcake 2, Cupcake 3, etc.

This way everybody wins, the diehard crowd gets the real rosters and EA doesn't piss off the TB crowd by deleting thousands of teams.

Not one of the cornerbacks, who played well last season, are rated above a 75. The starting safeties are both under 65.

THANK YOU. Mich st has to have the worst rated defense on this game compared to what they should be in real life. Really got the shaft if these rosters are not fixed. Half of the MAC teams will be better to use online!!

Please read EA. These are not all hardcore gamers even.

We had a thread like this on our Mizzou rivals board. People didnt believe me when i showed our ratings and how almost all of our freshmen werent there

EA better have an answer for us tomorrow. With the rosters like they are now, whats the point of even having the license to NCAA football? I mean you have the team names, and uni fairly correct but thats about all you have. This is just a little much even for EA. I mean we all deal with buying basically the same game every year just with a roster update. The gameplay is just good enough to get by. I mean I love college football so thats why i've always purchased the NCAA series, you would just think after awhile EA might give us a game worth playing. I really wish that the Ncaa team at EA would hire or atleast talk to former college athletes about how the game is played. I'm really pretty sure that none of those guy on the dev team have ever played a down of football in their lives. Ok thats my rant. Im still going to buy the game of course. I just wish EA would let me know exact what am I paying for with NCAA 10 ? What have you done to improve over 09 ....Teambuilder? hahaha....try again please this time with some improvements on the field...Season Showdown....Who in there right mind cares...What amazes me is that when someone comes up with these idea....is someone actually OK's this crap....anyways...Get the rosters right thats all we expect really now at this point EA....Thanks for spending all of the money we pay for this crap year after year after year ....so wisely....CLOWNS!

# 426 janglar @ 06/13/09 09:44 PM

The one thing on the game that matters the most or at worst #2.........is horrribly F'd up? (Sound of person flying headfirst out of 5th story window and splatting on the sidewalk)

# 427 KleShreen @ 06/13/09 09:52 PM

My favorite rating mess up is Michigan's Mike Martin (DT) is a redshirt freshman who barely played last year...and he's 91 overall on the rosters. Hahahaha.

I'm a huge Michigan fan, but that's ridiculous.

Remember the Brandon Graham rating from a couple of years ago...classic

Haha, in EA's defense on that one, all they did was move him from OLB to DE and didn't change his ratings. If you move a good OLB to DE, his overall rating goes up like 10 points if you don't slow him down and take off some agility...

But this one...is just stupid...

# 430 Roggie @ 06/14/09 01:57 PM

I'm giving up on rosters being fixed if Russ or Adam don't respond tomorrow.

Mike Martin barely played? I must have been watching the wrong Mike Martin. Have you followed anything about the players in the offseason? Martin is constantly mentioned as being one of the players who has made huge leaps in the weight room as well as outperforming everyone in drills in his position. Mike Martin is and will be a beast this year.

Yep. Everyone's a star in the offseason. That's why FSU and other BCS teams are severely overrated each and every year.

If you look at his stats, yes he barely played. The fact of the matter is he had 20 total tackles and 2 sacks...and he's a 91 overall. That's wrong.

And sorry, I meant he was a RS Freshman last year.

Either way, he did nothing to warrant a 91 overall rating. 20 tackles and 2 sacks is not a 91 overall rating.

LOL. He was?

Look at that list. Those were all freshman last season.

12 games isnt barely playing. 20 tackles and 2 sacks isnt a 91 rating, your right. But it isnt barely playing. If you watched the games, he played alot. He couldnt rack up any stats because the defense couldnt penetrate the o'line, and when they did, Brandon Graham got most of the sacks.

Mike Martin is also a beast and really bulked up this off season, and was getting raves all spring practice. Now we know they rarely mean anything, and a perfect example of this is Stevie Brown. If you wanna talk about a terrible rating job by EA, this is it. LOL! The guy is the worst excuse for a safety ever. He lost his starting job and is going to be a hybrid S/LB this season.

# 439 caseym12 @ 06/14/09 07:39 PM

why cant EA just buy a copy of Lindys or Phil Steeles college football preview and just copy and paste the rosters from there...as far as the ratings go...just read what is said about the players on each team...for example...if it says should be the best in conference at this position...they should be rated accordingly in the 90s ...why would that not work...? or i mean just give 120 people that love the game one team apiece to research and come up with the correct rosters..i mean with unlimited control over auburn in teambuilder i could have a 100% accurate roster in less than 6 hours.

Gotta throw in my .02. The argument Mike Martin barely played last season is questionable at best. How many freshmen DTs do you see putting up huge numbers? Obviously not many since someone who "barely played" was named to multiple all-american teams.

Now does he deserve a 91? Hard to say, but at this point I would say no. By the end of the year it might be a different story, but for now it does sound too high.

And yes, I agree Stevie Brown should be listed as a LB.

Go Blue!
