I'm not sure, but GameInformer published an article saying that "players will come out on stage and even strike a pose". That doesn't seem to be the case based on this blog though.

I'm sure that it was stated that 15 new ratings have been added , assuming I can still count at my advanced age , that lists 11 , anybody know the other 4 ?

A few good things in there. Sad there is no 'Team Builder' like feature to fully customize and upload team designs for relocation or rebranding/customizing the league. NCAA 14 and the NBA 2K games have that. Guess there's hope for some of that stuff using PC mods...

Was also hoping they would take the franchise ticker a step further with in-game updates/highlights like NCAA 14 has. It seems the snapshots feature is similar to the NCAA photos/videos in the dynasty mode.

I think the second screenshot in the section about the draft is how this is represented

These are some nice and much needed additions, for sure. I know I'm gonna have to win 1 Lombardi trophy to see it displayed in my coaches office. I'm still not sure how much more these things will hold me, though. At the very least I should run through my full EA Access trial. If I do that then I'll probably buy the full game at launch.

This really stood out for me as well. I sure hope the scouting was improved on because the scouting in ‘18 is extremely shallow. I thought scouting and the draft would be the #1 community request but happy for the people that wanted custom draft classes so bad.

I’ve learned that if EA is not talking about something then we should assume it is unchanged.

I’m going to save all my questions for when T4 gets his interview setup.

not only is none of this really news, but the way they detailed some of the things makes them sound less exciting then I had hoped, like the draft. im happy about the new features but this blog is a bummer thats for sure.

O-Lineman will have an attribute for pass blocking against power moves and an attribute for pass blocking finesse moves.

Now if you have a guy who is great with power moves you can beat a lineman that may have low power move defense, but high finesse move blocking.

This is really cool.. Now you can gameplan which pass rusher you want to attack each lineman.. Am I the only one impressed?
