Please welcome the EA SPORTS Game Changers

[PAPERNUT]

Welcome guys. We appreciate everything you do to try and make these games better, but I would love to hear your perspective on why we are still seeing some of the same issues in the NCAA series year after year. Not sure if they are using your feedback and that of the other communities as it seems to be more of a pr type thing. We all want his series to get back to the top, but I have to wonder if the current development team lacks what it takes to do that at this point compared to the Madden team that seems to be finally making strides.

that's a great comment and we actually have a guy who comes in to some of the community events his name is PackWolf.. he was on MaddenNation in the early days.. i believe he may have even knocked fellow EAGC Shopmaster off the bus back in the day.

Anyways, Pack got injured severely in a hit and run motorcycle accident and lost all use of his right arm and barely survived really. He was down this year at an event and they worked specifically with him on using the new Kinect features for Madden this year. They picked his brain on how to potentially expand it's use in a way to help the physically handicapped gamers be more successful and efficient in actually playing the game.

There are a lot more people young people with disabilities these days due to our war efforts for the last 10 years. I was really interested in how some of these features could help returning war veterans with injuries that also love madden and sports games.

There are people thinking about it man... don't get down on the ideas.. make sure you post at the GameChangers website if you have any ideas you think may be beneficial for the team in that area. You can also PM me if your more comfortable doing that and I will pass it along.

Oh and thanks for the welcome guys.. been around here a while though. Hope to continue bridging that gap between what the community desires and what the developers consider priorities.

I for one welcome our new Game Changer overlords.

I'm asking this bc I do not want to violate the TOS. Are we allowed to link to or suggest people read certain things on the game changer site here on OS? I am asking bc I have read some really good ideas there and the more votes they get from people the better. I know I posted something about it with regards to zone D in another thread without thinking, so if it is against the rules I'm sorry.

I am grateful to have each and every one of you around. The first hand knowledge we get is great and I respect the opinion of all GC's.

I hope that through you guys the voice of OS is heard. There are so many GREAT ideas floating around this NCAA forum.

I am also very jealous of the color!

Welcome Game Changers. I (along with all the sane members here) look forward to future interactions with you guys. And thank you all for what you do.

Also, the name color is great for knowing who exactly you are dealing with.

Still weird to see your avatar as something other than 'Naitch.

Welcome aboard, guys. I'll have to check out your site sometime.
