Re: NCAA 12 Teambuilder up?

I can't and this is not the new teambuilder at all. I'm not guaranteeing any huge differences or anything, but this isn't it. The same thing happened last year.

Re: NCAA 12 Teambuilder up?

Thank you, especially coming from a Carolina fan I'm glad you agree, it just frustrates me that the devs obviously either can't evaluate talent or just don't care. Lattimore is still a good back, but they make it out like he's a Home Run threat, and he really is not.

The devs should think about either hiring somebody who can come up with better ratings or start going off the scouting reports. I know we can edit the rosters ourselves but I always feel guilty doing it.

Could be that this is an easy way (huge differences, jacked up ratings) to avoid any accusations of likeness. Dreads on a guy that's supposed to be a guy, but isn't "really" that guy who in real life has no dreads.

Re: NCAA 12 Teambuilder up?

Taylor Martinez is only 82 speed, but Dennard Robinson is 95??? That's a joke....

Re: NCAA 12 Teambuilder up?

It's just like last year guys. The site that's up is only beta. Don't make any schools or make any changes because they will be lost. The site will go up and come down frequently as they update it. It isn't a final product.

At first I thought that was low too. But in reality TM has great take off speed (ACC) not speed. I agree it could be higher, but his acceleration is what makes him appear so fast b/c he gets going and behind people then they can't catch him. I would say 84 spd with same ACC is appropriate. Not sure about Robinson's 40 time but doesn't accelerate as fast as TM. But his Agi and BTK is way better and is probably faster over long ydg.

He's got crazy fast acceleration, but the kid was outrunning DB's and safeties until he got hurt. On most of his long TD runs, guys had angles, but couldn't catch him. That's because of speed, not acceleration. If DR is 95, then TM is a 93 at worst.

Re: Teambuilder '12 is Up

Doesn't feel like a final build. They seem to be showing off the new uniforms and stadiums in the game, but it feels incomplete. I would hope they aren't that lazy that they can't update the colors and interface to the 2012 build. It seems that there should be an option to distinguish between high school and college teams. We will see on Tuesday.

Re: Teambuilder '12 is Up

btw, if noone noticed, they didnt ADD the faces with long hair/deads, they REPLACED an old face with them, so if you're moving an old TB team to TB12, make sure you're players faces didnt change so they now have dreads

cmon EA, all you added was two new faces? and you didnt even ADD them, you replaced two old faces?

That's called being lazy

Re: NCAA 12 Teambuilder up?

Looking at Rutgers' roster in Teambuilder makes me want to break down and cry. Just the number of guys who are completely out of position/ off the team is depressing. I know the rating scale for recruits has changed from past years, but I see the highest ranked recruit we've ever signed is a 72 overall (RB Savon Huggins). Miles Shuler, an Army All-American who had the 2nd fastest 55 meter time in the nation a year ago gets 90 speed.

I'm not surprised and I know I can edit and what not, but it's depressing.

Re: Teambuilder '12 is Up

TeamBuilder 12 was scheduled to be up on Tuesday. I'll wait for that. The rest of TeamBuilder is the same as it was, including the screenshots from the old one on the main screen.

I can't find anything that says "This is it" from EA, so I'll just wait. Makes me feel better, have a little bit of hope.

I hope you're right. I know they changed the color of the background between 2010(green) and 2011(blue).

I looked thru it for like 10 mins and honestly I can't find one difference between 2011 and 2012 other than new team jerseys and stadiums.

And I noticed for whatever reason Auburn's endzone art is on the BIG and Big XII Conference Game Stadium.

Re: NCAA 12 Teambuilder up?

if you go to the stadiums does the high school 2 stadium not show up for anyone else? I cant select it and its just a grey box.

I think that's a poor excuse. It is impossible to accuse someone of player likeness by ratings because that is completely opinion based even Madden as well.

Re: NCAA 12 Teambuilder up?

they changed the LSU pro combat helmets so you can see more of a difference but once again Florida didnt get their Pro Combat helmets in. Last year the white helmets were left out, this year the orange helmets with the Gator scales are left out. The WVU helmets are sweet though.

i'm liking Maryland's jerseys as well

Re: NCAA 12 Teambuilder up?

I know they are using a generic stadium instead of Yankee stadium for the Pinstripe Bowl, but I don't see the field layout for it either.
