First NCAA Football 12 Dynasty Mode Details Revealed

01:00 PM - May 19, 2011 by metallidevils

IGN posted a story today detailing some of the additions to Dynasty mode in NCAA Football 12.

The biggest change seems to be the ability to create a coach and move up the coaching ranks. Many folks have been begging for a "coaching carousel" in this series, so this addition seems like it should make a lot of people happy.

Quote:


	...EA and Tiburon have responded and given players the ability to create their own coaches from scratch. You can modify looks, set ages and even pick an alma mater. Save these changes, and you can share them with the world and every mode in your game. That stuff might sound cosmetic, but it plays into the cool changes in Dynasty mode. When you start, you can choose to go be the head coach of whatever school you like, but the real challenge is taking on one of the new offensive or defensive coordinator slots and working your way up to running an entire team. Yes, this year you can be one of the assistant coaches and manage just one side of the ball for entire games. Do well, and the shot at a head coaching job might pop up.

The story also mentions some details about Online Dynasty mode, including confirmation that you will be able to simulate online dynasty games from your computer.

If you're a more visual person, IGN has also posted a video preview detailing these changes.

On a level beyond the additions themselves, the biggest change this year just seems to be the ability to customize the experience to your liking. The folks at EA Tiburon have been relatively rigid when it comes to customizing players, leagues and so forth, but the shackles seem to be coming off in both football games now.

More details should be released about this mode and the Road to Glory mode in the near future. The embargo for all media as it relates to these modes lifts on May 23.

You mean editing ratings? That is cheating bro. Sorry

It's his offline dynasty. He can do what he wants.

# 185 The JareBear @ 05/19/11 04:31 PM

Way to be cheesy guys. Super realistic. Lol wow.

Yeah you will.

I pray they don't include this feature as it has no place in a sports SIMULATION and when that news surfaces I will come here first to rejoice with my fellow SIM gamers

I never said anything about weight progression. Enough Said. I said ratings, not physical attributes.

Back Off

Enough Said.

Ok?

Enough said.

Yeah, so if this year the recruit ratings are still screwed and more than half the kickers in future years can't make a 30 yard field goal, we're supposed to deal with it because it's so "realistic"? Right....

Why attack him for what he wants to do in his private offline dynasty? No one is going to make you edit players. What's the point in all of this?

I can understand what you are talking about. I wasnt talking about ratings either. I was just agreeing what he was talking about.
It is not like you going to face people who do.

It's not enough said when you're wrong and being ridiculous.

Learn to read, homie.

I said RATINGS.

Ratings = Speed, Agility, Strength, etc.

Physical attributes are completely different and I agree user control would be nice since recruits don't seem to "grow" as they should during their college career in the game.

Thanks for being wrong though, homie. Homie home homes bromaster. Go get a life and find something else to be mad about.

# 195 Crimson Pig @ 05/19/11 04:36 PM

Any word on whether or not conference logos will update on the fields? As in, if I bring Florida State to the SEC, will the SEC logo be on their field/jerseys?

# 196 K0ZZ @ 05/19/11 04:37 PM

Hopefully recruit ratings are fixed. I doubt there will be a global editor and I don't wanna have to go team by team leveling out the recruits. No idea who thought it was a good idea to make it so recruits get progressively worse even though athletes are improving at all parts of the game.

Nice to be able to edit things though.

Also why is that guy freaking out? If it bugs you so much, don't use it. If it's an OPTIONAL feature than use the option of NOT using it. That would be like me complaining that the option to play on Freshman is in the game.

Enough said.

It isn't in the game now. Probably and hopefully won't be added. KTHNX

Enough said.

Learn to win games the real way instead of giving yourself 99 speed linemen.

I like the "cool internet mob mentality" approach you guys take. This Guy This, This Guy That. My name is right next to my posts, you can always PM me if you want to discuss it further.

Can't wait to find out this "Feature" still isn't in the game.

Why do you care what other people do in their offline dynasties?

Who the hell said anything about editing lineman to 99 speed?

You keep talking down to people like they're little kids. Stop that ****.
