I wonder if generic pictures of players can be found where it will be easy to just change the jersey and hats on them. Computer generated pics will be an improvement, but it doesn't seem that much work to make the jerseys and hat open to variety. But since I have no logistics of video game technology, I also have to admit to ignorance.

Or just have it where the players are posing without hats and show little of the jersey below, like the basic colors so that can be easily interchangeable after trades.

I would really hate generic computerized pics of players, I much prefer having a photo of a real player, it's not that big of a deal if they're not wearing the right cap.

as Ramone has said before, when they introduce a new feature, they usually leave the option of having the old one back

but who knows if they would leave this option in. If it looks photorealistic enough, than who cares if they use rendered player images or actual photos?


Anyway, it's probably best to wait for 10 before we start complaining about 11

yikes! computerized faces would be awful. In fact, one of my biggest wishes is for the made up prospects to have real pictures.

Maybe they could use pics of the SCEA development team (the ones who could pass as ball players). Or, as a marketing campaign, allow fans to send in their pictures and add the ones who reasonably look like players. this would be unfair to the older gentlemen on here, but maybe you guys can pass as knuckleballers??

Plus with the new player models coming next year hopefully maybe the computerized faces will look even more like real life then they do now

I'd rather see a player in the wrong hat than a computer generated one as well.

I agree.
