NCAA Football 11 News Post


Manage your school using the web in NCAA Football 11. Read all about it, at ESPN Videogames.

Quote:
"With "NCAA Football 09", EA Sports introduced football fans to their version of an online dynasty where gamers were able to play in a conference with up to 12 players, but managing your school had to be done through the console. This year, the team behind "NCAA Football 11" is finally taking the feature full-force to the Web, enabling gamers to log onto their dynasty anywhere they have access to the Internet, whether it's on a computer, iPhone, or even an iPad.

That's right, now if you an extra 20 minutes to kill at work (or if you just don't feel like working), you can log onto your team online, schedule a game, try to recruit that strong-armed quarterback for next season, and even write up a news story about how you destroyed Florida the night before and post the story to Facebook.

Talk about a productivity killer. "NCAA Football 11" is set to cost corporate America millions of dollars in lost time just so Dan from Palo Alto can try to convince some virtual running back that Stanford is the best place for him to high-step down the field next season.

But that's just the start of what EA has planned.

I recently had the chance to sit down with NCAA Football 11" producers Ben Haumiller and Russ Kiniry to get the inside scoop on the game's new online dynasty features.

Video highlights of a player's entire career? Team highlights that extend to 60 seasons? That's only just the beginning."

As commish this features worries me a bit about monitoring recruiting cheats. How can I monitor cheaters who recruit on the web?

Features sound nice but are probably glitchy as hell, I would rather them fix the week to week advancing first.

Ok, I have never done this so don't flame me, but you can be in an online dynasty by yourself right?

Well I mean from your computer and be able to do it all from there. Also being able to see all the playbooks defense and offense and be able to change it from online.

wouldnt it be funny if you could call in from your actual cell phone? LOL That'd be a total NCAA geek.

Man, it sounds like this game is setting up to be great.....I just hope it is

been wishing this for years. after playing a solid 8 minute quarter game at night the last thing i want to do is spend time recruiting.

going online and being able to access my dynasty during the day will bring a whole new dimension to recruiting etc for me.

great job EA! this is outstanding!

a good point of concern.

so does this mean if the site is inaccessible that you can't proceed to play your game at that particular time, or does that mean that you just won't be able to access your dynasty files at work because of web traffic?

There's something I'm starting to realize that has me freaking out: if this isn't "big news" that was being saved for E3, WHAT THE HECK are they saving to announce at E3? I have a feeling we're going to be in for a complete bombshell. The NCAA team is pulling the Shock-And-Awe treatment this year

This is awesome i'm sold on Ncaa 11! I didnt do a OD last year but i'm doing one this year for sure!

Madden what? So much for NCAA being a placeholder until Madden comes out, lol. I want this game now, damn it!

Imagine writing your stories for coaching changes with a coaching carousel.

This game is shaping up to be THE BEST!!! And to think I was worried about how to occupy my time while my fiancee is gone for basic training! Un-interrupted gaming for 8 months!!

Is there anything at all that you get with offline dynasty that you won't get with online dynasty? I know a lot was missing from online dynasty in madden last year compared to offline dynasty.

unless it was released and I missed it, there is no conference invites and no hiring or firing of coaches in online dynasty

I was already thinking of joining an online dynasty this year along with my offline one I'm going to do anyway. This may solidify it.
