I think he means in user games. In simmed games they mean a whole heck of a lot.

This

Take like the "Jump" rating for example it doesn't do anything from what I've seen.

I respectfully disagree. The only rating that has truly meant something in NCAA 13 was speed!

My personal experience with the game and more importantly the posts on this very forum from the developers at EA Tiburon when they were still active here during 2009 and 2010 tell quite a different story than yours.

Regardless, this thread needs to get back onto the topic of what ratings should be added into the game, not a frivolous debate as to whether they work.

In real life, some recruits are more developed while others are long-term projects. What other player ratings do you think should be added to NCAA 14 and/or other future NCAA games?

There should be a hidden "ceiling" rating, a hidden "floor" rating, and a visible maturity rating, and a visible work ethic rating; which has an effect on whether or not the player's rating is closer to the floor or ceiling.

One more thing though if ratings matter so much why can we put a punter in as a blocker then watch him throw a 99 DE to that ground like nothing?

Boom goes the dynamite.

I am interested in the QB ratings from Madden. I don't play Madden so it is intriguing.

For example, Current potential: Player A is 60 overall. B potential, always reaches rating in 80s. New model: Player A is 60 overall, potentials are as follows: 90-99: 20% 80-89: 30 % 70-79: 5% 60-69: 45% This would be an example of a guy who is either gonna succeed or his tools are gonna fail him and he will not be great. Obviously it would be broken down more and preferably player development would depend on factors such as this, % of snaps played, coaches development rating, and practice reps. Also, there is always the problem of assigning default players potential ratings.

This is exactly what I had in mind
