15 Questions about Online Exhibition games I've yet to see answered..

[ODogg]

I've got some questions about online play-now exhibition matches. I believe some of these may have already been answered but I've not been able to sniff out the answers as it seems everything online related this year is about online dynasty. I also thought it'd be a nice place to gather a bunch of answers and discussion together in one thread. So here goes.

1. How many minutes are games by default (ranked)?

2. Is accelerated clock on by default (ranked)? If not, can the host adjust it?

3. Can we finally set our own weather conditions? (for that matter I don't think weather even worked at all for NCAA 10 did it?)

4. Can we choose the time of day the game is played in?

5. Are there any ways at all to scout our opponent? (I.e to find out % of hurry up, qb sneaks, etc)

6. Will the other guy see our alternate uniforms or will it be like last year where you change uniforms but only you see it and the other guy sees the default uniform?

7. Can we challenge our friends from our friends list to a ranked game now or is it going to be like last year and only allow this convenient way of challenging our friends to be a non-ranked game?

8. Will formation subs be saved to our profile? Or do we need to go through and set them for each and every single game??

9. Will using the hurry up offense fatigue non-hurry up teams or can everyone online use hurry up constantly without penalty?

10. Will we still have the "three pauses" rule or will EA ever change to the superior 2K method where you have 5 minutes total to pause and unlimited pauses?

11. Can our opponent still skip over any cut scene or will it be like Madden where both users have to agree to skip a cut scene? With the new intros they will always be skipped so I'd hope it's like Madden now..

12. Will challenges work online now?

13. Has the lobby and/or interface changed any?

14. Will we be able to concede a loss at any time now or do we have to wait until the second half to do so?

15. Will auto-sprint be on by default for ranked games?

What it might be, is that in my experience, Ranked games seem to have a lot of pretty cheesy users, while the demographics that frequent this site, are likely into OD more, or if they do play quick matches, it is against friends and not randoms, and those games arent ranked iirc.

[ODogg]

Yeah, I was going to say that. However almost all of what I ask would apply to games against friends in nonranked games.. Also, some of these questions are not ones I've thought up myself but seen people around here asking.

heh.

I've never played a ranked game of NCAA. don't really see the point of it. I'm strictly a Dynasty player(online and offline)

as for your questions, most of them, I've heard nothing about them.

as for this question:
"6. Will the other guy see our alternate uniforms or will it be like last year where you change uniforms but only you see it and the other guy sees the default uniform?"

I believe the community day guys said it was working correctly during the community day event, but no idea if it will with the final version.
