Old Feature You Miss The Most?

[KushNstien]

I miss everything, everyone has said. They should really put all of these features back in the game.

I miss the suspensions too but from what i could remember it was always a star player getting into trouble so it kinda ruined the feature for me cuz it was either lose games due to key players being suspended or lose prestige for not suspending the player.

25 second play clock.

I miss dynamic weather. Tired of it steadily raining or snowing. Make the weather changing for next gen a priority! And I miss the stats in the play calling screen from the PS2 era. Never had to pause the game. Could sub and see stats all on the fly.

Subbing on the fly started in NCAA 06. And once you made a sub in the pause menu, in formation subs, then it wouldn't work anymore for that player in that formation. It was the first game to allow you to have a pocket passer and a scrambling QB at your disposal to sub in at any time, to any formation. It gave you a dual threat QB attack for multiplier games, and it sure was useful. In games before NCAA 06, you still could do formation subs, different QBS for different formations, but in NCAA 06 you could switch QBs, RBs, WRs, on the fly for any formation. Not to mention the bluff play modifier that not everybody knew about, so your opponent couldn't narrow down your potential play to the 3 plays on the screen.

Spring Drills has already been mentioned, and is my #1, but my #2 is def the quick cut trigger jukes. I felt like they gave you so many more options and control when running. Every now and again I'll pop in 09 on PS2 and just play Spring Drills and run the option drill. For any of you who still have a PS2 laying around I reccommend dropping 5 bucks on NCAA 07-11 and doing the rushing and option attack drills with those jukes. Those quick jukes are awesome, and a ton of fun to combo jukes with. I also like the risk involved in timing them. Back then if you miss timed a quick cut you would get de-cleated and possibly fumble. I guess what I'm trying to say is I miss how dynamic the user controlled running was with that option. It makes me sad that it's 2013 and the running game is worse than it was 6 years ago. I really hope this is the year we get it back!

R2- pitch
L2- Stiff Arm.... you had to tap it once to switch carry hand.(more user awareness)
L1/R1- quick juke..... I miss that.

Yeah that was really awesome.

There were so many great things that had added levels of realism that they took out for whatever reason.

Yes definitely need dynamic weather. One of my favorite games is F1 2010 and it's awesome to be playing on it and start a race in the sun and dry conditions and have it raining by the end of the race. Definitely a great level of realism.
