I've been reading the posts about the Beta that Steve has here and have been disappointed to note the following:

1. No snow in dynasty mode... yet. Seems like he's playing with Cal though, so that's not a very good indicator team for this. Hopefully this is one that EA got right and changed (not like the code to fix it would be hard and how many of us want to see snow in an Ohio State at Michgan game, raise your hands...).

2. Conference scheduling - Again, Steve used the example of Cal. He says he plays the same teams every year, and at the same week during the year. C'mon EA... This is another thing that shouldn't be too hard to code and was a major complaint by Dynasty guys. May not be all the conferences, but at least the Pac 10 sounds fixed.

1. I would have liked to see snow, but its not a big deal to me.

2. If i remember correctly, last year for Ohio State, i believe that they had this upcoming season's schedule for the 2nd year, but i know after that it recycled. I hope they dont have the same conf. schedules recycle, cuz this year the Buckeyes have a tougher conference schedule, and i'd hate to play the same schedule for 10+ seasons.

These two arent major problems though.

I'm disappointed that the conference schedules don't cycle, if this in fact the case for all of them. I guess I'll just play FSU first game every season in my UNC dynasty.

Not a huge deal, but definately disappointing.

Yes, conference scheduling is VERY DISAPPOINTING and was a top 3 complaint myself.

I'm beginning to wonder what EA has done for the past year besides tweak AI and deliver the SI covers.

Man, I was really hoping the conference schedules would be fixed. Looks like I'll have to stay in the Big 12 if I want the schedule to rotate.

yeah thats a

if the schedules are messed up again.

It all comes down to gameplay.

I played more hours with ncaa 2003 than any of my other games on all platforms COMBINED.

The game was just that fun and somewhat addicting.

If EA can fix up a few minor graphicial problems and enhance the gameplay even more, i'll be playing 300+ hours of this game.

most of the things that ea hasnt included in this years game, are petty, at best.
