Since they havent said anything during the gameplay webcast. I think NFL Headcoach '09 had it on their game.

I would absolutely love create a play. To me, the game would be worth buying if only for that, but I'm also really into the X's and O's.

I loved create a play last gen because I could create those instant quick slant routes right from the LOS that I couldn't get.

I think they consider custom playbook part of the dynasty playbook.

I have always wanted create-a-play. For an even deeper option I would also love to see it available in game, maybe during a time-out and with a short time limit to slap it together.

I want create a play and create a formation. I have a couple I wanna make.

Create a play would be a major welcome addition...if it worked right.

This is the problem...it opens up a lot of potential exploitation for online play, because people won't use it "right". You thought cheesers were bad with the standard playbook? Imagine what they can do when they can create their own formations.

And if EA makes it so that you can't take your plays online, people will complain about that as well. It is just far less of a headache to not have the feature in the game.

You can't keep good features out because "bad" ppl will abuse it. I say put it in and let everyone fend for themselves. I hate hearing the idea of slowing progress because the feature will be abused. That's not cool.

You wouldn't be able to create illegal formations, I don't see a problem..

except for when people create plays that exploit the system, the game becomes unplayable online. That IS a problem.

It is less about legal/not legal formations, and more about that the game is a system of code that can be broken (not to be confused with The Matrix). People will figure out a way to exploit the AI and create money plays that will become unstoppable online.

Doesn't matter. You don't leave out good features because of the threat they may be corrupted by ppl who will abuse them. Some ppl will abuse everything so it doesn't make sense to punish everyone for that reason. Some ppl didn't want cpb because someone will put all the money plays in one playbook. So be it. But a great gameplanning feature like that can't be left out because of fear.

Create-a-play is for the cheesers, doesn't belong in the game. It would get exploited and make the game unplayable.

I'm just curious, in what way do you feel it would be abused? In your mind, what plays do you envision being created that would make the game unplayable?
