    Grammar errors in game

    Sorry if already mentioned; I tried to search for it and was unable to find anything.

    I was in dynasty mode recruiting players and I noticed some annoying mistakes:

    "Your right coach......"

    "Your going to....."

    Somebody at EA needs to go back to elementary school.

    Does the player have "least" or "low" interest in academic prestige? Maybe that player isn't that smart. EA is realistic.

      Yeah I noticed this too.

      This is without a doubt a great game, but it could use some polish in a ton of areas.

        There's a play in Auburn's play book that has Curl spelled Currl.

          I joked to myself about this too while recruiting a kid for Central Mich. I pitched conference prestige and he was like "there are worse conference than the MAC" I was like wth lol I'm not sure what his interest in academic prestige was but that would be a really cool touch if EA did this intentionally as a hint to his intelligence like awareness and play recognition. I'm sure it's a mistake but still...

              Um, i think FIFA is targeted to EU more than the USA and they spell defense that way over the pond.

                But they spell offense with an S and not a C.

                I believe UK/England is the only english that accepts the C spelling where other places like north america find that spelling to be incorrect. england accepts both ways. to use that spelling in a game that is released world wide, and have it in the north american version, while being developed in north america, while spelling offense with an S...just seems like it is there as an error.

                  That's how they spell defense in England. That is not an error.

                        Is this really a big deal? I don't even read what the recruits say when I pitch something to them.

                          I don't really read em either, but I did think it was funny the first time I read from a recruit that had TV as his "Least" the line "TV rots your brain, coach"

                            How about when you go into the game recap on Dynasty Wire and the 4th quarter is shown as "Forth"?
