1st thing is that there are 6 weeks left until May (too late to add/change date).

2nd thing is that I hate to burst folks bubble who are waiting for new gameplay improvements, but the "Game Engine" is maxed out.

The only thing they can do is tweak visuals/animations to run smoother, giving the appearance that we're getting a new game.

That's why so much emphasis on the visual side and on other modes of play.

"Gameplay can/will not change until a NEW Engine is developed upon.
It simply can not be improved on the current engine.

There's a reason they have "NEVER" gone in depth about the Gameplay side since being on Next-Gen.

Never mind that 1000's of request to talk about it each year are posted.
They always steer clear of in-depth discussion and focus on tweaked Visuals and alternate Mode injections.

Let's see how many of the Mid-Major/Smaller Schools have these so called New Features added to them.
Less than 15 schools will have these injections as it relates to that particular school.
The other 105 schools will be tagging along for the ride.
Ex - Marching Bands and Field Entrances.

Will NCAA 12 have:
Coaching Carousel - keep wishing!
Broadcast Camera - let's wait and bring it in down the road as a New Fearture!
Overhauled ST Gameplay - unfortunately, the game engine won't allow nothing new to be done!
Editable Recruits - maybe 2014 as a New Feature!
Global Positional Ratings Editor - ahh, don't want gamers tinkering too much with our product!

This is just my way of laughing, as the same ol song-n-dance we do every year as though we're about to get that "WOW" type of game released to us.

Anyways, I'm a rent-before-buy person, so back to "Sum-Ribs" in sunny California!!!
