Custom Playbooks are a must and 100% agree with

However the very idea of Create-A-Play terrifies the hell out of me. I'd love the freedom to an extent but, there's no way it could be done I think to the point where it couldn't be exploited vastly online. I think they should work on this feature though but, not release it until like 2-3 years of work is done so it doesn't completely ruin the game online.

Unless they refuse Create-A-Play for use in online ranked matches. Let's actually go with that it sounds like the best idea for a quicker release of a feature like this.

C'mon EA. Should have been a no-brainer with the 120 Ways to Win thing. An online playbook builder is the #1 item on my NCAA 12 wish list, apart from the usual gameplay improvements.

The should call it 121 ways to win... hinting at custom playbooks.
Why not make the custom playbook online like teambuilder. You had a great idea with that,
But let us make our own formations and plays too.

Ha Ha, thats how I got started! I drew up flexbone plays all through out Psych class. Also, I'm an OC for a Church little league. I'm only19 lol. I'm sure your probably just as smart when it comes to football as I am.

I actually wouldn't be too upset if the feature was disabled online. Personally I would have disabled on ranked matches, but you can choose to use custom play books in private online matches.

Planned to post this by the first sentence of your second paragraph in response, lol. And maybe for all of online as well? That is, if it is TOO big of a problem....which it shouldn't be, just like OCs being innovative, un;ess there is a legit glitch to a certain formation/play. Hmmm, how about the option to allow or disallow it as one of your settings for onlne? If you chose to disallow, you won't be able to use them, and neither will your opponent if they have that sam setting or accept it or whatever (don't play online much so idk how all that goes lol)

ah well I'm 15, almost 16 and going in to 10th. Hey, mybe I'll draw up some of my plays on paint and send them to you? :P Don't have real names for anything yet, however.

Sure man. I've actually developed two formations that are not used with anyone else in our league. I've personally never seen them while watching football, but I'm not positive they are original, so I won't take credit for them. Anyways, my point is, I could use another foreign formation to turn the tides towards us this year! My boys lost in the championship twice now. I'd like for the older guys who are moving up to get that trophy!
