Think NBA2k jump shot creator Examples would be Marino and Favre guys who dropped back like that. Brady and Montana more a textbook style. Johnny manziel how he held the ball really high and tight. How they’re teaching kids now. This will give QBs a feeling of uniqueness. I’d also like to see QBs with a special strong arm animation. Guys with absolutely elite arms. Maybe if they have that trait they’ll have a special animation that’ll play for them throwing and it’s just more powerful. Maybe it could give them a stay boost. Last suggestion is gear. I’d like to see many different helmet styles and jersey styles. Old school helmets and facemask from the 80s and 90s. Along with an option for bigger pads and loose sleeve jerseys.

I like the special trait arm strength. You even make it where if he's at a school with lesser receivers they have a hard time catching his rockets.

I'm getting so hyped for this game! I look forward to these posts every month. This is the game I never realized I wanted to play so bad. Can't wait to recreate my old school's powerhouse program

June's Development Update

I'm really looking forward to this game as many others are! One big question I have is with the statement that every city with over 1000 people will be put in. I'm wondering for large cities like Chicago, will there just be "Chicago High" or will there be a multitude of high schools in Chicago? I know you can't do specific high school names, but maybe like Chicago North, West, East, South, Southeast? Or with large cities do neighborhood names like Chicago Bridgeport, Chicago Wrigleyville?

Larger cities will have multiple schools. All schools are fictional and are generated in-game. Our naming convention doesn’t take into consideration specific neighborhoods. The prefix or suffix in the generation has to be applicable to different cities - so North, West, etc would be something you see.

Hopefully that answers your question.

Awesome, I'm looking forward to the game when it comes out! Will there be a way to edit the school names or make conferences?
