No new attributes and nothing done with player appearance. There goes my top two wishes and since they were the first questions asked I don't think I am the only one. The disappointment of sports gaming continues.

Just rent it man. No need to waste your hard earned money on a game you probably won't play much and are already disappointed with. Much better to rent and see if you at all enjoy it then getting stuck with it and wasting your money.

Anyways, so I don't take this off topic. My questions:

1) How are the motion offenses?

2) Are any of Live's problems carried over to this game?

3) Anything new you've noticed that wasn't mentioned in the blogs/back of the box?

does anyone have the binghamton roster and ratings? they're in the america east, would've had a solid squad that could return to the NCAA tourney, but a kid got busted for selling crack, and next thing you know they basically kicked 6 guys off the team and they're left with a garbage team now, just wondering if these rosters reflect that.

Ha-Ha

That doesn't surprise me they cut them out completely this year.

They never botherd to research them to begin with and the roster and ratings were a joke anyway......Any guy with passion for old school rosters and teams could have done a better job than EA

They were just slapping a number on the players and giving them a height and weight and calling them Classic teams

Blue ribbon is for team ratings.....

EA tries to implement player ratings themselves which is why you see 500 guys with the same ratings every year..

It's tough enough for them to get the accurate rosters and you guys expect them to have solid ratings aswell....

(sarcasm)

As I mentioned above, Rhode Island's starting five is 100% accurate. Now that situation with all those guys getting booted off the team is a different story, but I'd say all hope for mid-majors may not be lost.

Haha, no offense taken, I know what you mean. I don't know enough about UK to know how accurate their roster is, but like you say, at least we can edit things to our liking!

I have two questions, is there in-game injuries, unlike in nba live 10? Another is in dynasty, can your coach change teams during the offseason or your stuck with the same team??

# 228 LBFitted @ 11/18/09 03:34 AM

man if it wasnt for the damn recession i woulda had this game like fri already! But honestly it sounds good to me! People complain about every last game that comes out! Realize these are video games....they are not gonna be perfect! People praise ch2k8 but when it 1st came out it was bashed too! Ch did have lots of depth... but at the same time the game play does move slow as hell, animations and all! Every last game to ever come out has flaws...and every new game that comes out somebody is gonna jump all over it an bash it! If you didnt like ncaa 09, u wont like it til possibly ncaa 13 and even then ull have gripes! If you dont like it go be a developer and change it urself!

# 229 JAY_D1 @ 11/18/09 04:36 AM

can you please let me know what UIC (Horizon League Illinois Chicago) uniforms are looking like? They have had these new uniforms since 2007 and hope it made it in

Thanks for the impressions CB.

The exclusion of real schedules (AGAIN!) kills any realism with this title.

Considering how quickly I tired of Live, and how much this sounds just like Live, I'm going to pass for now.

Just sounds like Live with college teams and better presentation. Not a bad thing per say, but not exactly what I want either.

there is real schedules with dynamic update

	Hey man, turns out there was an update yesterday. Not sure how much the rosters got affected by it. I noticed that 2 UK players went up and down 1 point each overall. You can also select the option to "download changes in appearance" which is something I didn't know EA was doing this year. Update brought real authentic schedules too. So after the update...any Dynasty you start will in fact have the correct schedules. Sorry for misleading you a few days ago, but didn't know the update would fix it. Later

haven't seen an in-game injury yet. And yes, you can change teams during dynasty mode ala NCAA Football.

the real schedules come out with a dynamic update according to their blog. Supposedly its released already, but I couldn't get it to download last night.

But this game does resemble Live an awful lot. It is a twin. Not identical, but it is a twin.

Thanks for the update on the schedules, that makes it a little more tolerable. Still have an issue with the mid-major issue.

# 236 countryboy @ 11/18/09 09:29 AM

One thing that I want to point out in case people are wondering...outside of the sim logic being fixed and recruiting being tweaked, there have no changes to dynasty mode whatsoever, at least thats how it appears after simming 2 seasons.

The menus are still clunky, the scheduling is still whacky, and the pre-season tournaments only matter if you are playing in them. In other words, if you don't choose to play in any preseason tournament, then no preseason tournaments take place. If you choose to play in the Maui for example, its the only one thats being played.

Hopefully, I'm missing something in that regard, but I looked last night, and didn't see the other tournaments taking place, which was a problem I had last year.

mid-major issue? Are you referring to them being kept out of the NCAA tournament? Or is there a different issue?

Yeah, not making the tournament. I use a mid-major, so I'm concerned that if say I go 30-0, and lose the conference championship game, my entire season is for not. That's not right, especially if you schedule big schools as Bill's examples were earlier. If my RPI is say 12, and I go 27-3, I'm in the tournament, plain and simple. Especially over a 15-15 "BCS" school with no major wins and finishing 8th in a conference.

I so want to get this and want to like it, just nothing is screaming "Buy me" from any impressions. I appreciate you going out and giving us a ton of info, but you definitely helped me make up my mind.

Now the pre-season tournament thing you just posted, ugh. At least we know they haven't messed with dynasty mode in 3 years

Yeah...I simmed 2 seasons last night and Bill, not that I doubted him, was right on the money. There is always that one really oblivious omission and admission into the big dance. I know that in real life, the committee does things like this, but not when teams are .500 or barely above and a mid-major has an outstanding year and a high RPI.

The preseason tournament thing really, really bugs me. Why have them in if they aren't going to be used outside of user play? I really hope that me being tired last night caused me to overlook this, but I don't think I did. It was the same last year and its the same this year.

And you're right, dynasty mode was left untouched outside of presentation, sim logic, and recruiting.

That explains why they never talked about it.
