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.

It would be amazing if suits were in! Are there any real coaches in College Football (or the NFL) who actually wear suits, though?

I didn't start reading these boards until sometime in 2006 and from then until now I have never seen a reaction to new info as positive as this right here, right now.

Oh my DOG!!
This is great

I suppose we will see some good cut scenes with DC, OC and HC doing their job on the sidelines, hand shakes, players talking with them and so on.

Does anyone know if you can edit conferences in the middle of dynasty mode?

Yes, at the end of the season.

Tiburon earnin' my cash this year! First year since PS2 days that I'll be getting both NCAA and Madden. First year ever that I'll be pre-ordering both.

Looking forward to monday to find out some answers to the questions in this thread but I'm getting the game anyway.

Obviously, playing with urself is great. We've all done it from time time - LOL....

This all sounds year and all but HOW AND HELL ARE WE PPL WIT JOBS TO WORK AND LIVES TO LIVE SUPPOSE TO FIT THIS IN OUR LIVES!!! LOL! This is overwhelming, for real...but I'll find a way. I hate to rush July but...

# 392 titan23 @ 05/20/11 08:03 AM

It sais that you can recruit when you're offensive coordinator. Pretty sure that's offensive side of the ball.

# 393 MrMiller84 @ 05/20/11 08:38 AM

Pre-Ordering ASAP.

# 394 noplace @ 05/20/11 08:44 AM

Decent but this doesnt do much for me. I want the on the field game play fixed & the commentary upgraded drasticly.. All this is fine and dandy but it will suffer if gameplay isnt fix

I know what your saying though from the computer you can play the game now. that leads to zero productivity at work, very dangerous.

Howard Schnellenberger, the FAU coach, wears a suit.

ncaa is sounding like a must purchase this year, i loved ncaa 11 without all these additions, things are getting kinda scary around here lol lol......

# 399 blkrptnt819 @ 05/20/11 09:10 AM

If tendencies are in the only huge thing left is a physics system. Everything else is nuances. This is INCREDIBLE!

There's always at least one that brings up game play in a non-game play related thread. I'm surprised it took 430+ post though. I believe that's a record.
