Tomba,
Did any of the smaller schools that you used have the correct courts or did they seem generic?

Thanks
Racerx

Some, yes. Courts should be all accurate as well.

1. Will edited player names, faces, and accessories show up online? Does EA Locker 3.0 allow public roster sharing? Are more file types than rosters allowed? Can you rename game saves?

...Player names,faces and accessories should be shown online.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but unfortunately, this isn't accurate. Producer Joe Stallings told us on the first day of the event that named rosters would not be viewable online.

I confirmed with EA today - Stallings' information is accurate; named rosters WILL NOT be viewable online.

I assume that means equipment edits, etc will also not be able to be seen online.

It's not the end of the world for me, I never play college basketball games online. I have the NBA game(s) for that, college games I'm all about the legacy mode.

I'm a little disappointed. I play online and exhibition more than anything else.

Was this a feature in CH2K8?

Yeah, it's been in College Hoops and NCAA Football for years now.

In fact, BShadows even tested it out and found that if two CH 2K8 gamers have the exact same roster file, that's the file that will be used online. So CH 2K9 games would be possible online.

If the files are different, you play with the default players and ratings, but it uploads your custom names. So it's like loading a partial roster.

You said that EA is adding more motion-captured jumpshots, but does that mean you can go into the player editor and manually pick what jumpshot you want a player to have, or is one automatically assigned to them? Thanks.

Re: ***NCAA Basketball 09 Community Event Recap***(Ask questions)

Hi I just wanted to know a couple of things first will there be a training camp, some sort of aau camp, or nike camp like in 2k, will the training be conducted like in the past which was one thing I hated about march madness was having to use a point system. Is the recruiting better do you still have to use points or have they went a college football style and last but not least are the coaches on the sideline and do they make life like comparisons ie if you losing do they get mad and and stomp on the ground and push chairs you know go all out. Also will there be a midnight madness thank you and have a great day.

Coaches on the sidelines are there and they interact with you with in screen overlays to make sure you're going about the games tempo .

Hi I take it there's no training camp or a way for you to train your own players. Thank you for the answers and have a great day.

Re: ***NCAA Basketball 09 Community Event Recap***(Ask questions)

tomba, did the developers reverse the court in cameron indoor so we can see the ramp and not the coaches and players benches when viewing the broadcast or sideline camera angle? I've mention this to both producers.

Re: ***NCAA Basketball 09 Community Event Recap***(Ask questions)

Question: Does the game have multiplayer franchise or can you play other teams games?

Paul did you find this out? There are a lot of us that hate those one-team seasons.

This is the deciding point for me.

Re: ***NCAA Basketball 09 Community Event Recap***(Ask questions)

Even if we can only control a hand full of teams, it would still be cool to be able to play whatever games you want in dynasty mode. Like NCAA Football.

That way you can enjoy the season AND then the tournament from wherever you want.
