countryboy: Thanks Steve for taking and answering questions.

How are penalties this year? Have you seen a facemask penalty called?

I haven't played w/ the sliders yet, but I've seen a few holding calls and yes, a few facemasks penalties. Cool thing is, when a facemask penalty happens, you feel it from your digital player. It hurts just watching it. Going into replay, you can't really see the fingers grabbing the facemask, but you can see the head jerk w/ the hand in the area.

I am glad you're not seeing a ton of turnovers this year.

Steve, you are money.

EDIT: Steve, I know you've answered more than enough questions already, but before I forget I have one big question to ask:

When you select the alternates/jerseys, does it just say what color the top is, or does it show you what they look like like on last gen?

Thanks a lot.

The turnover issue is a relief to hear it has been fixed. That with the other additions I have seen will make this an easy purchase this year. If lack of deep passing from the AI (which we should be used to by now) and quick snaps from the AI is the only issues to worry about this year, I will deal with that. Hope it still gets fixed by July though.

I'd like to know if you can actually see the uniform when you choose before a game starts or if it just says what the uniform is in text format.

"Cyros: 1.) In 07 and 08 on the 360, if you tried to switch a player's positions during the off-season of Dynasty Mode more often than not their speed went way down (talking 90 down to 68). Does this still happen?"


I believe this option is only available in the offseason and not the preseason in dynasty, so you would have to advance to the first offseason first to see answer this question.
