    Corporate restructuring? You have 2 guys with an idea, how do you restructure?

    Unexpected delays? Anyone with half a brain never expected this project to get off the ground. Everything said so far was completely expected.

      In madden 18 they had 2 college teams in Texas and Oregon, whets the difference if they have 2 or 126. They were able to license both with no issues, give us 50 teams and I think it would sell

        Whole insert sounded like a professional way to say that this is alot harder than we expected.
        No way its coming out 2020. Don't see how they can get that type of funding with no real way to sell them on product. Even if by some miracle they get funding, does anyone believe it will sell well at all. If a unlicensed football game with NFL legends couldn't sell that well to masses, I don't see an unlicensed college game selling well at all

          They licensed with those schools specifically, and had no actual players. It was also for a relatively small role. It’s very different than licensing for a game dedicated to college ball.

          I could go more in depth but in essence, it’s not quite that simple.

            Honestly if the customization is highly up to date and user friendly, I believe it will sell, they really only need to make one game if customization is on point. Reason I found myself drift away from NCAA now is the lack of being able to update uniforms and the lack of playoff... I don't want to have to use an editor for it. If they make it so can customize almost everything as they state , even with generic rosters and conference names, of it has the college football dynasty vibe, 12 games, bowl games, playoff and recruiting is good... I think it will sell least the first version to let us do all the customizing on the the consol

              The thing about that is just soooo incredibly lazy. Make a game so that the masses can make it into NCAA? If I am editor putting in all that work, I want a piece of the pie.

                  Not sure what you mean by being an editor? Like someone who makes teams and conferences etc?

                  If so, it wouldn’t be much work to each individual. Just look at teambuilder for NCAA, essentially a community effort. Within days every team will have been made by someone and available for download into the game. You would be able to pick from at least 10 versions of Ohio State, for example.

                  Now if there’s certain team makers that do an excellent job or great rosters, I’m sure a market would open up if they were so inclined. Guys would demand PayPal of so much for access to their teams or something.

                    Didn't the 2k myplayer have some real college teams? It isn't an issue for them because they have connections with the NCAA.



                    2k is also bigger than these two nobodies running IMV.

                      They are really no more than hustlers, it was easy to sense the moment this game was talked about. They are social media only people and big talkers. It is easy to get people involved that are vulnerable and really want to play college football. Just mention you are "Dedicated to bring it back and want to get it right." Connect with a couple of Youtube people like Flemlo to talk it up and you get more people thinking you are legit. Get a couple decent pro athletes to contribute and people really think you are serious.

                        Guys, I might be way off here. I am playing NCAA 11 and NCAA 14 some. I am really trying to preserve 14 like an investment. Anyway, have you all seen the customizations you can do on Super Mega Baseball 2? Uniforms, players, teams, leagues, etc. I am itching for an NCAA game so badly for ps4 beings that I have one now and I have seen the graphics of Madden 17 that I got for 6 bucks. This might be the lazy but I do long for a new NCAA football game. Some serious developers have to know there is money to be made. Right?

                          Probably just way off. If it was financially or commercially viable we'd have a game.

                            Had nothing to do with "connections" or lack thereof with the NCAA. They got the SCHOOLS (individually) to agree to license. There is nothing stopping the schools from selling their license for use in a video game, the NCAA doesn't own their logo, mascot, uniforms etc..

                            One of the setbacks is that for a new NCAA game to come out though, how could they agree with 130 separate schools to use their license.. Things were easy under the NCAA umbrella because they could use the license for all schools under the NCAA.

                              I've come to this via the opposite direction. Ive been looking through Big Ant's back catalogue, and noticed that Wikipedia has them listed as the dev for an upcoming unlicensed college football game.

                              What? When?

                              I'm very familiar with Big Ant. They have found ways to create really good sport simulations from sports with limited niche markets. Why haven't I heard of this from them, or all the Australian game industry people/companies I follow on social media?

                              So I went back through their twitter from the past few months. Nothing. Ok, weird, but some devs like to control announcments.

                              Then I came across this thread. And man. It was quite a ride getting through this thread.

                              That press release was a master class in corporate jargon.

                                Yeah, have to wonder what the specifics of the game they were going to make for just $5m were.
