Impact Players

[MEAST26]

Not sure if this has already been answered, but how what's the point of Impact Players? I remember 06 or 07 had the slo-mo cam and the guy would make a big play when he was "in the zone", but in NCAA 10 (or any of the next-gen games for that matter), how are Impact Players any different from just another really good player?

Re: Impact Players

I'm not positive on this one but I believe it has no extra bonus or anything like that it more or less just signifies that they are your best players.

Re: Impact Players

They have no effect at all. My impact players always change half way through a seasons. I don't always just focus on my impact players because they are not always my best players. EA needs to work on this.

Re: Impact Players

My impact players always change mid-season as well. I wish the impact players did have some type of added bonus.

Re: Impact Players

The only thing I notice is that the opposing team keys on them. I had a really good HB that wasn't an impact player and he ran all over defenses until he became an impact player, then it was a little more difficult, PA worked a little better too.

Re: Impact Players

I have noticed that computer controlled Impact Players, whether on your team, or the cpu, tend to make more big plays at key moments. I had one against a user last night. Had it been any other player on my d, normal tackle on a big hit. This one he thumped the guy on the punt return and jarred the ball loose. His hit power is not high either.

PS - you tend to have an off. and a def. impact player chosen at the beginning of the year. As somebody else becomes a standout on the team, they garner that 3rd star. And that can change depending on the performances of teammates.
