hehehehe wouldn't that be nice!!! an alternative to EA football with customization would be AWESOME.

I think it adds longevity to the game, something else to do, once you get down with a lot of the features you start creating and i like to create the Senior Bowl Squads for the co-op experience.

to take it to the next level, they should put a uniform editor in for dynasty mode so when a few years go by in my dynasty i can go to my editor and lets say for Auburn, get some unique Under Armour jersey styles and use those to create a new look for the next five years or so until i get tired of them, all while keeping my originals as my classics. sort of like madden used to have in franchise. but let me use the college logos from my team. feel me?

The fascination is because games allow people to step into roles they wouldn't otherwise be in. For me I like creating my old elementary school, due to the fact that we wore royal blue and white and our logo was a white star it's relatively easy to turn our flag football uni's into tackle football uni's.

Also like people said, people like to build their own programs literally...for me I just like things to be custom. I love customization. With EA adding the stadium music thing I can already see the possibility of blending the energy of a Saturday Night SEC game with the atmosphere of a SWAC game. 65,000 people screaming while the band is playing "Neck".

Its the same fascination one might have with CAP. people create themselves and put them in the game at whatever position.

I dont care one way or the other for this feature. I have used it on the ps2 days and always replaced Northwestern in the Big Ten. I understand why people would like to add this. It gives them a little more excitement after all its a video game

Feature would've been alot better for me if you could alter existing teams logo's color. When I played in high school we used the K-State Logo on our helmet, but we were black and gold. Would've loved to alter the color from purple.

its because youre / we're creative and somewhat controll freaks .
ps2 = 2 years and they cant put decent outlines for the numbers. or better old school facemasks or no facemasks at all as a choice. or the ability to make really old school uniforms. or the ability to put the primary and secondary color where ever you want. I like artificial fields for that 1970s feel .

I make a damn good uniform. a few more decent logos would be nice / better. there are those of us who take pride in really being able to texturize a color from the basic choices

golds and silvers are the hardest to be happy about though.

Im suprised I dont see more of you guys posting pictures of your created teams.
