I think you are misunderstanding them, but it does have a lot to do with dynasty. Makes recruiting much more important when playing the game that way and makes your schemes and everything matter more.

EDIT: I guess you weren't misunderstanding them, but still...

I just meant that it isn't anything like coaching carousel or a be the coach mode. I thought that was what you understood it to be.

Because the show was 1 hour and 15 minutes long......

Coach mode got announced with 3 minutes left in the show.....

All the rest of the show was talking about stuff we already knew.....

Seen videos we already seen.......

Showed interviews of players that nobody really cares about. I mean hell I couldn't understand a word Fairley was saying, sounded like he had a big wad of tobacco in his mouth.

Plus they answered only 3 or 4 questions......

If a show was 80 minutes long, you would think they would have answered at least 20 or 30 questions.

Yeah, I understand. I mixed up Coach Mode with Coach Mode, if that makes sense.

Also if weight also matter, I hope this means 330 pound DTs won't be able to keep up my juking QB or RB in the open field anymore. In the past DTs were able to change direction on a dime like they were Barry Sanders.

I will also like to say, if QBs don't scramble when they suppose to, then coach mode will be a failure. Going to be one big sack fest.

Yeah, coach mode sounded like a form of spectator mode - but hopefully it's tied into a coach/coaching carousel mode in dynasty where you can choose to play the game or just coach the game in coach mode

Didn't a previous version have coach mode already? Or maybe it was Madden.. I know I remember it... It was extremely boring.

Re: NCAA Football 12 Developer Chat on EA Sports Live Has Started

If done right, coach mode is extremely fun. Other games have shown how fun it can be.

Very good livestream they did. I missed parts of it. But I loved the different crowds sounds from the big time teams to the small teams. I'm looking forward to getting my hands ncaa12 now. The game is really looking right now.

I watched before heading into work.

Before I go off....

I just want a confirmation that as I understand it, the Broadcast Cam will only be available for those "Hardcore Sim Gamers" (as defined by Ben) who've been asking for the option to call a play, then watch as a coach.

This meaning that Broadcast Camera will not be available for us "Casual Sim Gamers" that actually work the thumbs.

Did I hear this right?

Re: NCAA Football 12 Developer Chat on EA Sports Live, Coach Mode Announced

Yeah the way he said it, it is only available via coach mode and not regular games.

Totally unacceptable. Why take the time to make the camera and then stop at the snap.

That broadcast cam better be playable, I was banking on it being so. It's been in Madden now for 2 years, no excuse for it not to be in NCAA. Otherwise, everything else seemed like old news. Coach mode sounds great for the simulating guys though.

Thats terrible on EA's part no doubt but I think that that it would be equally or more terrible if there wasn't an inclusion of any other playable camera angles announced..now that would be inexcusible...Has anyone heard of any new camera angles yet?...Ahh forget it it I forgot if it was included it wouldve been announced already...things that aren't included aren't mentioned until right before shipment...LOL..

No team entrances in online play.

Straight garbage. Why in hades do you cut out YOUR BIGGEST NEW ADDITION in online and OD Play???

That is indescribably awful. Sucks all of the atmosphere out of playing your opponent.

It's available in OD games. Just not in ranked, and random online games.

The rationale is valid--forcing gamers to sit through intro's during random ranked games will lead to nothing but problems.
