What features do YOU want to see next year?

[RhodeIslandBuck]

Obviously EA would never be able to incorporate all these into the game in one year, so besides the obvious desire for better gameplay, which of these features would you like the most for NCAA 2011?

- All 1-AA Teams and the ability to play a 1-AA season
- Bowl Game Patches
- Spring Game
- Change Field Art and Jersey Patch when you change conferences
- Referees and Chain Gang
- Dynamic Attendance (like San Diego State, they never fill their stadium)
- Hand towels, hand warmers, all helmets and facemasks, and half sleeves (like Pryor or Grothe)
- Heisman Trophy presentation (like in 06)
- College Football highlights of the week, like College Football Final
- College Gameday type of thing to preview the top games of the week
- Pre-Game analysis during warm-ups (previewing one or two players from each team while showing them warming up)
- Post-Game analysis
- Team specific entrances
- Post game celebrations, especially for bowl games, rivalry games, and upsets
- Injury Cart
- Cut scenes, like a coach talking/yelling at a player, the coach arguing with the ref, interactions between teammates, and interactions between both teams
- Ability to upgrade facilities, like new stadium, stadium expansion, turf field etc. (The AD mode someone proposed earlier seemed like a great idea), and also to redesign uniforms
- High School all-star game
- Same score bug and ticker as ESPN, they have the license, so use it
- In-Game saves
- National Anthem before the national championship could be a nice touch
- Historical Teams, all-time teams, and all-american teams
- Team violations, player discipline (like in 06)
- Schedule neutral site games
- Pontiac Instant Classics
- Get rid of Campus Legend and replace it with Race for the Heisman (but with the high school playoffs)
- Coach names and coaching carousel
- Fans storming the field after a big win

Only 1...

I want to see Jeff Luhr fired. If he is still the lead producer or whatever you want to call it, I won't be buying this game no matter what.

i'd love to see all those things only after they made gameplay improvements

Features are jack without worthwhile gameplay. Love the list but if I wanted a feature list and not tried and true gameplay I'd go buy Head Coach.

I usually really like these threads, but since we're dealing with EA, this thread will fall on deaf ears...i want them to bring back mascot game (sw)

They owe more than one free voucher. This game hasn't been worth 50 or 60 bucks since 04.

This and what Born4Corn said.

Everything we asked for on our NCAA 10 wish list that EA chose to ignore.

Re: What features do YOU want to see next year?

For me its these three things:
-Momentum
-Pass Rush
-Road to Glory improvements (I do actually like to play this mode)

Re: What features do YOU want to see next year?

who cares? None of it will happen anyway

Re: What features do YOU want to see next year?

Make the gameplay realistic (pash rush, more bad passes)

Then throw in the 1-AA teams and an AD mode.

1.) Formation substitutions. ( an absolute deal breaker for me and why I won't purchase 2010 and why I quickly tossed out 2009 as if it was made of fire and cancer.)

2.) Chain crews. Obviously not a huge factor in gameplay, but the fact that aspects which were available on the PS2 version still remain unavailable at the next great level is infuriating and smacks of either incompetence or overt laziness.

3.) Recruiting returned to a level that didn't require 30 minutes between each game of a dynasty. The 2008 version would suffice just fine.

4.) The ability to change the time and weather for games in my offline dynasty. This is my personal game and my personal expectation of what the gameday atmosphere should look like. If Texas played Oklahoma State at night in a pouring rain I want my dynasty to basically be capable of reflecting what I saw. Why not? Who is this game made for? Me, right. Well let me be in control of these things.

5.) I'd like EA to change their flawed perception of what an evening game looks like in a real college football game. While they are apparently in love with that sun setting, orange and darkened hue, real stadiums have these things called massive floodlights that flush out darkness and make the field look bright and vibrant even in the setting sun and on cloudy, darkened days. The shadows of upperdecks is greatness, but playing an entire game in an orange haze that looks like something in a cheap western is ridiculous and hasn't occured at any high school or college game that I've ever attended.

6.) A modicum of evidence that anyone who designs these games has actually attended a high profile college game and has a basic understanding of the college game atmosphere. Chants of "defense" that are reminescent of a Duke vs UNC basketball game is not getting it done. I want a realistic sounding crowd that reacts appropriately to the action on the field, such as noticably raucous behaviour pre-snap on key plays and third downs and appropriate noise at the conclusion of those plays.

7.) Equipment, individual appearances and more equipment. Thank you for the updates to uniforms and the ability to mix and match. However, I want hand warmers, realistic face masks, long socks, short socks and the ability to change their colors within reason. All of it: hair, bodyfat, tattoos and whatever. Not that hard.

8.) Sidelines clutterd with players, multiple coaches, photographers, media and general overcrowding as seen at real games.

9.) Lifelike momentum. Come on man. Good grief.

10.) I want the slogan "If it's in the game, it's in the game!" to be a promise of optimum effort rather than a laughable notion that only defines the hilarity of the product put out since the creation of new generation consoles.

Wait, recruiting took me WAY longer on 2008 than 2009. 2009 had quick call for when i was impatient...
