It Is Time to Relieve Corso of His Playcalling Duties

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

The only issue I have with ask corso is that he seems to bring up the same few plays over and over again

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

Actually, in our franchise (nephew and I), we use ''ask corso'' feature, to keep us from choosing the same plays over and over again. The game is far too easy, even on the higher levels, if we have our choice of plays, especially if it comes down to needing a extra few yards, or first down.

I'm all for adding more to the feature, but if it's removed completely, the game would be even easier than it is now.

Or you wouldnt even have to create a guy. Have a pool of personnel that's available to hire each offseason. Each coach could have their tendencies, weaknesses and strengths. Maybe even give them a rating for developing talent. You could hire the QB specialist if you want to have a strong passing attack..and so on.

I like this idea Ralphsundin.... I also love that I was completely wrong about the way most people perceive the feature. Most of the people I am familiar with on the message boards are dynasty guys, and in general the people use the feature to (like you guys point out) keep them from calling the same plays over and over, but also to limit the "money-ish" plays.

Omg that was a great idea! That would be so badass. Oh man, now that you've gotten me to thinking about how much this would add to the game I want this feature now! Wow, great idea. Great article.


As for Corso, sure I could do without him, even though I do use him in PvP just to keep my opponent guessing. This OC/DC idea is just great. I would LOVE that feature. I now NEED that feature. I DEMAND that feature.

[LingeringRegime]

I like using the feature. It does make the game harder, and that is the reason I use it.

It would be nice to one day have a feature like this, then be able to hire and fire position coaches and OC and DC. Think of the curscenes we could have then. The coordinators sitting in the booth thinking of stuff they could run. The position coaches filling out the sidelines. A player messes up, his position coach is right in his ear getting him right. It would be a great feauture that could include so much. But then you'd probly have people complaining and saying things like "well my OC doesnt sit in a booth, he's on the field". blah blah blah. I want realism too, but dang.

Anyway, great idea. Its definately something that would add alot of depth to the game for hardcore gamers... they would probly have to make a second dynsaty mode for it. Think about it, you could have spring games. Position coaches with position related drills. I can think of many more ways they could make this feature great. A nice touch would be to fill the sidelines up with more than just players and cheerleaders. There are people everywhere on the sidelines... Heck, Im a sports marketing intern at my college and IM ON THE SIDELINE LOL.

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.

You are exactly right. It uses the same logic as a CPU team.

And to the last point in the original post about spending recording time on other lines instead of Ask Corso, we haven't recorded new AC commentary in years.

I use Ask Corso to call my plays. And so a small feature (that now that I think about it hasn't been announced) that we added this year was HUGE for me.

Sorry if it was announced... but it might be new to some people! You can now turn off Ask Corso audio!

well they tried to replace "Ask Corso" with "Ask Petrino" but Petrino kept disappearing midway thru the game.

don't think it has been announced, or at least i haven't heard it yet. i use ask corso feature sometimes too, and i always hated the audio of it because it blended in with the normal commentary and got annoying. so being able to turn the audio off is good for when/if i use it in '09.

I always use the Ask Corso feature too for every play except sometimes on 4th down.

Do you know why they never put any QB Draws on there from the 5 Wide formation?

Ohio State had one in the Demo.
