*Official Wishlist - NCAA Football 11*

[jbrew2411]

I thought of this while playing today and don't think it has been said. I would like to see added to recruits info if they will sign early (in season) or late (after season). This happens in real life where a recruit will not decide to after there senior year and they state that. This would help by allowing you not to spend tons of time on a recruit that want sign early and bring them in early. I like to be the first to get a visit and if they don't sign till late then I get moved down the list. I have no way of knowing now so I have to recurit the same way I have since this was added to the game.
Also EA a walk on is a walk on. They should not count for your 70 man roster. Not ever position is on every teams roster. Some teams don't have a full back but you have to have 2 in the game. WTF.

* Helmets popping off/rolling around after plays

-Stretched ratings needed, incoming freshman should not be 80's, only a select few of freshman actually play their first year based on the teams needs.
-Also player progression/decline during the season based on stats or injury. If a player tears an ACL the next year some of their stats should be lowered, or if someone has an all-american year have them upgraded throughout the season.
-Off-season stats need to be lowered. People gain like 7-10 overall each year n after 3 seasons there are too many 90+ players. If they add player progression durin the season then off season progression should be lowered significantly.
-More players on roster, I think its at 70, increase it to 85 players.
-Instead of left and right linebackers/ends make them strong and weak side and have them line-up on the side of the field they are.
-Have a WR position and a SR position. That way if someone gets hurt I dont have to shift around my depth chart to get my small quick guys in the slot n the slower possession receivers on the outside.
-Improved recruiting! Add juniors, and actually make the user evaluate their prospects to figure out who actually has potential n who doesnt.
-Numbers... many teams have duplicate numbers, one on D the other on O. Make it so more than one player can have the same number, but make it so one has to be on D the other on O.
-Improved stadium noises/loudness/team entrances(U of M touches banner)
-Better presentation.. too blah, especially the bowl games! Those are no different from regular season.
-The progressed and stretched ratings would help so much though, then we can actually do dynasties for more than 2 years without it becoming b/s.

-This last one is a long shot, but it'd be great to see and be more realistic: Updated rosters that are downloadable online. But not just that, it'd be great to see if a player is injured in real life, then once u download those rosters, that player gets the same injury/duration in the same week! Ex: Sam Bradford sprains his AC joint in his shoulder in week one in every dynasty you play with those rosters. Or Blount plays the first game and then doesnt anymore (in real life he was suspended for the year for punching a Boise player). The only problem with this is because of Bradford and Gresham's injury, not many people will be oklahoma anymore. But in the end its just more realistic for your first year of the dynasty.

This has already been said probably, but oh well.

-70 man rosters are bull, they need to bump the # up to 85, with 5 walk-on spots (Anybody else like this?)
-As for not being able to put in all the new helmet designs/facemask,
WHY THE HELL is there a complete helmet section called "Standard/Normal"? That makes NO SENSE whatsoever, nearly all FBS schools wear revos,schutts, ions, or riddell (yes, I know schutt and riddell are the only helmet makers)
-As said above, no more LOLB,ROLB, and just plain WR, as for the LBs there should be WLB,SLB, and MLB, and they should line up accordingly. WRs should be split up into Slot Recievers (SR), and WR, some teams best WRs line up in the slot
- In recruiting more players should be listed as RB/LB, RB/DB, etc., the ATH is too general IMO, why not just make RB/LB, RB/DB, etc.? Personally, I'm fine with the ATH system, but I think that some players may be bothered by that

-Make the off-season more interactive, instead of just "Player Improvement", how about some spring practice or fall camp? If a player (by player, I mean game player) doesn't like the idea he can just skip the practices, and they will have the same effect as Player improvement.

Anybody else like my ideas, and sorry for the grammar/spelling mistakes.

1. At least the option to slow the computer's game speed down so they don't snap it with 15 seconds left on the clock every play. I'd like to be able to play realistic 15 minute quarter games.
2. A broadcast cam!
3. Improved presentation, make me really feel the difference between a regional broadcast and a national one. Go for the full out ESPN presentation on the national broadcasts.
4. Better commentary. Honestly it doesn't work very well this year.
5. More realistic crowd dynamics, i.e. if the stands are supposed to be half full, they should look half full in the game.
6. The announcers should be able to say every name of every real player in the game. I don't believe they can now. Go the college hoops route, where even though the players aren't named in the rosters, all of the real names are in the database.
7. AI game strategy. The CPU runs up the score and does not switch to second team even in a blowout. I saw on another thread, Adam said that they do sub, but "42-7 is not enough of a margin." Lol, if this is the case, they need to rethink the margin trigger so that it actually works.
8. There are a few too many kick returns/interception returns/fumble returns for touchdowns in my opinion. This is more of an opinion matter though.
9. The Renovated Rutgers stadium!!
10. Real coaches.
11. Recruiting that involves HS Juniors, sophomores, etc.
12. Some better animations; one problem is the runners changing direction much too quickly.
13. Stat tuning. Get the stats from a CPU vs. CPU game as realistic as possible at default sliders.
14. (This will most likely be controversial). If there is a specific area for which the game engine prohibits getting realistic stats [obviously that should be fixed eventually, but this is a possible temporary fix], perhaps adjust simulation stats to match what we will see in the game play. Even if the sim stats are a little off from real life, I (personally, many will probably disagree) would rather see them line up with my players in a Dynasty.

This is all I can think of for now.

Also..

15. Fix the penalties! These have been f#$%ed forever.

-Bring back classic moments. Like in 04 or 05, you can replay historical moments and try to change the outcome. God I miss that mode.

-GET RID OF MASCOT MODE/GAME IT'S THE MOST PATHETIC THING EVER! WHY IS IT EVEN IN THE GAME!!

-Create-A-Prospect / Player in the TeamBuilder Application. Import them in the game, put them in a pool of players in a different area. So you can Add to a Team or trade someone out. Kinda like NCAA Baseball 2006.

First off I think Ncaa football has been horrible over the past couple of years... All of the designers should be fired. They are most likely people who have never played football. Anyway this game is in desperate need of many upgrades.. Im so tired of those same damn cleats since the game has came out on xbox ps3. What happened to dreads/long hair? There are no hand warmers. One length in players sleeves. There are many new styles of helmets.. Alternate jerseys. I could go on and on but this **** is sad EA step your game up.. I would be happy if everything that was done to this years madden was done in ncaa....
