    Injury Slider

    How difficult would this be to implement? Madden's got it so why not NCAA?

    Only reason I bring this up is because I just had 8 players on my squad alone go down with week to week injuries, get this, in the same game! So that just adds to the other 5 injured players, 2 out for season, no healthy running backs (2nd string WR is now it), and the punter is the kicker and punter. FML much?

    I have yet to see the injure issue people mention.

    In our Online Dynasty, I lost 1 player for 3 weeks. That was it and we are in week 11. Plus no one else in the dynasty is having injury issues.

    In my offline dynasty, I am in week 5 and have not lost anyone yet.

      In this years game I have only had a couple of players go down with a injury longer then a week. I wish we had the injury slider because I like to have injuries. The only thing that sucks is the 70 man roster could leave huge holes and force you to remove a red shirt.
      Relax, it's just a video game!

        I feel like injuries have been done perfectly the past couple year. Wouldn't hurt to implement an injury slider though I suppose.

          Small schools going against big schools usually means more injuries for small school. I broke EC's qb's leg and their MLB's collarbone in one game against them as South Carolina(its my 3rd year of dynasty and they are now a 5 star team)

            I agree. 95 percent of ncaa11 is great but injuries are so subtle to the point where its unbearable. I'm running an option it goes for 30 then I say hmm ill repeat that and try it again and I'm like WTH y is my QB so slow only to find out my starter has been injured. I like the realism of injuries but let me know when they get hurt I had to turn injuries off for the first time in a sports game. Sliders are def needed

              I am having a boatload of injuries too. I actually came on the forum today just to look for a thread like this. I'm actually surprised no one has died on the field yet considering I can't remember the time I finished a game without an injury. I'm now 5 games into my second year of online dynasty.

                See I have had a few injuries for quarters or a game and lost my starting qb for 4 weeks but I have not seen the huge amounts of injuries that you had mentioned. That is very unlucky and I can see how it can screw up the entire season.

                  Lol@died on the field. Word of warning don't use the option heavy playbook if injuries are on

                    Glad you liked that. I will avoid the option heavy but I actually don't run a lot of them.

                    I actually think the problem comes with the abundance of late hits. I often run away from pressure and throw the ball away but will typically get drilled long after I hit R1. I have even made a note to run away AND backwards before throwing the ball into the stands, and it is still a good second after I release that my QB gets clocked.... and then hurt.

                    Unfortunately, I don't want to, but I might have to turn injuries off. It is becoming way too difficult to survive a season with a full roster and have the ability to compete.

                      Perhaps it is just small schools that this happens to. Playing with Navy so...
