NCAA Football 11 Blog: Play Calling


Ben Haumiller has just posted another NCAA Football 11 blog, as he discusses play calling.

Quote:
"The most important screen in the game without a doubt is the play call screen. This is where you need to make quick strategic decisions. It is of the utmost importance that everything is available to you quickly and easily; especially when going up against an up tempo, no-huddle offense.

With that in mind we determined that the play call screen needed to be streamlined for NCAA Football 11. A lot of the Play Call features I'll be talking about have been in previous versions of the game, our goal wasn't to blow everything up and start from scratch, however, we wanted to make it feel as if all of your playbook options were always at your fingertips. In this blog, we will go into those updates as well as talk about the crucial role the NCAA community members had in shaping the final version of the screen.

During our NCAA Football 11 Community Day event we brought in a number of hardcore NCAA players to check out this year's game early in the development process and collect their feedback. Since play call is so important we spent a lot of time going over this screen to make sure that we got it just right. The feedback we received was outstanding. When it was all said and done we were very happy with the results. A big shout out to the community members who helped shape play call into its final version - this was a prime example of how getting the community involved early and often can help make the game the best it can be. I'll point out some of the specific updates that were made based on this feedback as I go into how play call will look and function in NCAA Football 11."

Wow! If you notice the SMU playbook screen they have a couple of plays that are actually Run & Shoot plays. I have several Mouse Davis playbooks as well as a June Jones playbook from Hawaii, and 61 X Choice and 60 Go are actual plays. In the screen they are in trips and these are called in the playbooks that I have as:

Early Rip 61 X Choice - Early Rip 60 Go

Just cool to see the actual plays in the game. Some cool option routes available there that haven't been in during past games.

They have been saying this for weeks and weeks.. If its not something that will blow me away, I'm gonna be real disappointed given the way they have been like "O just wait!, It gets better!!". Just deliver the news already.
