I really like the new menus and call format. This truly needed the upgrade.

But come on now, a 5 Star FB? Really? This again? The recruiting class creator or whatever really needs to be updated.

I like the new look. I'm waiting to here what other changes they have. I'd love to hear if they added a recruiting difficulty.

That's actually the first time I've seen a 5 star fullback in the past couple years. Usually they are no higher than 3 stars for me.

I like that they added promises to be available all season, and that they limited them. I might actually use them this year, at least, if they are not glitched again.

I liked all of that with the possible exception of showing how many points ahead/behind you are of your competition. I kind of like having to read (guess) how much cushion or making-up I have (to do). I would be more interested in having several levels of interest shown on a meter (similiar to how it is on 10) without the numbers.

New graphics looked nice. Loved the comparison. Recruiting should be fun.

Agreed

This.
I'm not gonna say that this will ruin recruiting in OD's but I think it will severely change the way things are done. For instance, there were quite a few times in our OD in 10 were someone would give up recruiting someone because they thought they were too far behind. Now no one never knew how far behind they really were, but they thought they were too far and that's all that matters. That seems more lifelike to me than seeing points. I mean Florida State doesn't really know how far they are behind Miami in getting that top recruit. They can just assume which is what you had to do before this. I'm not saying it's going to ruin recruiting, I just think it makes it less realistic. Honestly, I would like to see a national signing day and if the top teams were within 100pts of each other the recruit could go to either one of those teams. Now, that would be pretty cool.

I like the new look. I'm waiting to here what other changes they have. I'd love to hear if they added a recruiting difficulty.

I doubt they added that. We've been asking for that for years now with no luck. It would be nice though.

So far so good, I'm definitely happen with the changes they made to the phone call. It was becoming very tedious.

Like the compare feature and I actually like the ability to see how many points your behind the leader.

Excited to see what the other 2 blogs entail!

Solid blog. Nothing revolutionary, though, just a few cosmetic and detail changes.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Dynasty Blog: 1 of 3 - Phone Call

This just doesn't sound like it will capture the excitement that there is when following recruiting.

Winning a recruiting title is almost like a mini championship, and people go crazy over it.

Telling me how many points behind I am just sounds like it will make it easier and remove all suspense.

I'd like a prospect picking hats and have no idea whether or not he is picking my school.

It shouldn't always be like this, but there should be some surprises. I'd imagine coaches have a good idea where most of the prospects are deciding, but there are players on national signing day where a coach has no clue and it is a 50/50 shot.

This won't ruin the game in any way for me, but I would like recruiting to be much more exciting than it has been.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Dynasty Blog: 1 of 3 - Phone Call

I completely agree with all you guys about the points. With all the awesome things NCAA 11 has shown us this year, I think this really brings it down a notch. We all have been asking for more ambiguous ratings, etc., now we know EXACTLY how many points we have with a recruit AND now we know exactly how many points the other schools have too. I think this is ridiculous, and it is too unrealistic. The ranking system they had with recruiting was perfectly fine, they didn't need to change that at all. The more I think about this, the more upset I get.
