It Is Time to Relieve Corso of His Playcalling Duties

[RaychelSnr]

Operation Sports writer and MaddenMania admin Bryan Clark checks in today with an opinion piece about the "Ask Corso" feature in NCAA Football. Check out his article, It Is Time to Relieve Corso of His Playcalling Duties.

"It’s high time we hand Corso his walking papers, at least when it comes to the play calling aspect. Since the feature was only marginally useful in the first place, it’s time to replace the feature with something relatively similar that can use the same basic programming, but at the same add a new level of depth. It’s time to add offensive and defensive coordinators."

Yes, it is time to relieve Big Lee "Torso" of his play calling duties. First of all and most important, please tell me NCAA 09 did away with "Ask Corso" as the default set of plays during the play calling screen. I have never used them once and would never plan on using computer recommended plays. If some assistance-craving newbie needs the computer to hold their hand during the game, then put it on a separate junior varsity daycare mode, not in the game. Keep Corso to maintain the authenticity of the Gameday atmosphere, but can the Ask Corso feature and please update his in game sayings, or at least limit the repeatedeness of them.

Such anger

Guess you missed the part about people using Ask Corso to make things harder for themselves...

Not so fast my friend......Corso's not really all that bad......I'd prefer Corso play calling duties over his commentaries cuz they are getting old.

I haven't read the article yet, but I remember certain head coaches having a book, or so they called it, where they have a list of plays they'd run in certain situations. 3rd and long or shot, etc. I'd much rather see something like this that real coaches come up with whether Corso is on it or not. Some real football knowledge would be nice as opposed to some randome play.

Yeah, I thought his nickname was "scooter, " not "schooner."

I use ask corso 95% of the game. Keeps my plays random and a nice variety. I may not use the exact play he picks but there is always a good one next to it or on the next page. And I consider my self better than most. so to the guy who calls me a noob .

[DirtyJerz32]

I like using him sometimes. I feel like he's the OC and Im the HC. I will override him sometimes but, I like him.

LMAO!!! Classic FYI I'm pretty darn good at this game and I do use Lee, when my playcalling is feeling particularly uninspired I like to go to this feature and I will usually pick a play out of the formation he selects.

Re: It Is Time to Relieve Corso of His Playcalling Duties

Meh. I've been under the impression that the Ask Corso feature was basically letting the CPU call your plays, that it's the same playcalling logic the CPU uses when you play against it. So, in other words, this issue has nothing to do with the Ask Corso feature so much as it does with playcalling-AI more generally.

O and D coordinators is a good idea, but it's not like a hundred other people haven't already suggested it.

Re: It Is Time to Relieve Corso of His Playcalling Duties

I'm waiting for the day when there is an ask the Offensive Coordinator option. Where the plays that are selected for you match the frequency that you would use them in real life. This can be tied into player ratings, and the run/pass and the aggressiveness sliders.
