Questions on NCAA 14? Interview w/Ben Haumiller on Friday 6/21

[Atlas VSN]

Sorry about having all the forums and threads hidden, that was my fault. Everything should be good now, so go on and listen to the 'cast.

-They can add someone at any time to Ultimate Team. Just let them know who we want in, and they can reach out to them about being added.

-The Uniform Store will be just like last year. One big pack for free, then the rest will be paid DLC. Ben says they're limited on being able to make a uniform and add it that day.

-According to Ben, the demo is FAR from the final build. They've fixed several bugs from the demo. Also, they're already working on a post-release update.

-The Season Pass users won't be getting access until after July 4th.

-They haven't fixed the auto-reorder depth chart to notice height and weight for players playing out of position.

-Online Dynasties are capped at having 12 members. However, the website did receive the updated recruiting, but lost the ability to super sim.

-There isn't an option right now to turn off the "R" and "P" for the read and pitchman on the option.

-The ability to import a draft class into Madden NFL 25 is back.

-You can edit any conference or non-conference game to be in ANY stadium. The only limitation,a realistic one in my opinion, is that you can't play 2 games at the same place in one week.

Depth chart issues didn't sound like they would be fixed, looks purely at ratings for order (WRs can still be at TE, etc). They didn't have enough resources/time and new facemasks didn't make it in. Ben said this will be looked at, has relationship from manufactures. Online Dynasty capped at 12 users. The way it was originally designed makes it hard to add more users for "this gen." Can't confirm Xbox One/PS4 NCAA at this point. New recruiting system on the website, removed Super Sim from web feature. Teambuilder received no changes, resources went elsewhere. No option to turn off helper icons for option plays, may possibly be addressed during update depending on feedback. Safety coverage issue (CPU switching to aggressive late in game/not playing deep enough), Ben thought this was addressed and will bring it up with gameplay team again. Can't edit rivalries, sounded like they wanted to add it in for a future title. Importing draft classes back after players leaving stage. Madden team knows more about how it works (ratings and such).

lol you beat me to it!

We should definitely start a thread up wit what players we'd like added once we see what players are in Ultimate Team now. Just an idea, sorry to bug haha
