    No Chain Gang?

    i noticed that NCAA 11 added refs but no chain gang. What's up with that? I want it to be in the game. Something is always missing every year from the NCAA series. Anyone know where to contact EA Sports about this?

    I'm hoping that they are working on adding them along with Coaches. They haven't been in any of the early build vids that we've seen but with two months to go I just hope that they are in the process of putting them in the game. With so much time left before release I think there is still going to be a lot of additions to this game.

      I'm probably in the minority, but I'm kind of happy they don't have the chain gang. I got so sick of them running on the field in Madden last year. Every time you came within a yard of the 1st down they'd run on the field. So annoying. I'd be cool with it if you could skip through though.

          Yea that was more so a stupid cutscene than the actual chain gang. I hated that as well. Especially since you couldn't skip it and it was predictable.

            I guess I'm just a detail guy. Having them just adds to the "authenticity" that ea is promoting. They were a bit annoying in madden but I think if ea fine tuned them enough they wouldn't be so bad.

              Exactly. Chain gang on the sidelines during gameplay would be nice though!

                  Here we go...The lack of something that has to do with nothing causing a stir...Sure, I would like to see a chain gang but I don't recall one time missing the chain gang while playing the game...
                  What?

                      Terrible design decision by the Madden team.

                        agree 100%

                        I never noticed there wasnt a chain gang until it was brought to my attention on these boards and even so, they don't affect the game in any way and they are on the sideline where you hardly notice them. And if adding the chain gang meant that annoying cut scene from Madden then i'm glad theyre not there. Refs on the field is one thing, because they are actually on the field during the play but chain gangs are people on the sidelines that you dont notice.

                          Just because you guys don't notice them doesn't mean they shouldn't be there. It's a detail that shoudl've never gotten lost on the transition to this gen, just like the refs.

                            Exactly my thoughts on it. Hated being stuck watching the cutscene when you knew instantly whether it was a first down or not.

                            I'd like to see them on the sideline. But not that stupid, unskippable cutscene. If it's skippable, then I wouldn't mind it. Or have more than one cutscene. But seeing the SAME CUTSCENE about 10 times a game just gets old and fast.
