I'll still enjoy the game on my own but it would be even better if I was able to play the game with that group of friends still, which can not happen unless we get a new title.

The problem is, some of my friends sold or traded their old systems to move over to XB1/PS4, so one of the most enjoyable parts of NCAA, playing online dynasty with my friends, is now not possible.

Re: Basking in the Playoff's Success, Attention Turns to NCAA Convention
I'm still on my 360 for the foreseeable future, probably not getting a Xbone/PS4 unless NCAA returns.
That being said, NCAA 14 is still the best football game available - quite a bit better than Madden 15 on both the new and last gen consoles IMO."You make your name in the regular season, and your fame in the postseason." - Clyde Frazier

Re: Basking in the Playoff's Success, Attention Turns to NCAA Convention
This. I started playing NCAA 14 for the first time two weeks ago and I'm only continuing because it's such a great game, but I really wish it were on next gen. I wouldn't care if it didn't have the best graphics like the Madden 25 port. I just want to put my 360 away and this is the only game preventing me from doing so.The problem is, some of my friends sold or traded their old systems to move over to XB1/PS4, so one of the most enjoyable parts of NCAA, playing online dynasty with my friends, is now not possible.

I feel the same ... NCAA Football 14 is the only reason my Xbox360 is still hooked up. Thanks to those who put together current rosters it's still fun starting new seasons ... just wish there was a way to easily custom every team schedule over to the most recent one ... not to mention EA having figured out a way to add the CFP to the game by downloadable content or something prior to closing up shop on the game.Comment

Exactly my reasoning too. Plus the game (not gameplay) feels a little outdated now when switching back and forth between it on PS3 and Madden 15 on PS4This.

Re: Basking in the Playoff's Success, Attention Turns to NCAA Convention
for sure this, and maybe more than just a little. in all honesty, madden 15 on xb1 is 1 giant leap ahead of ncaa 14 in a lot of areas."Not the victory but the action. Not the goal but the game. In the deed the glory."Comment

Re: Basking in the Playoff's Success, Attention Turns to NCAA Convention
There's is no denying the popularity of football in north america right now. Say what you will about the legal issues, but I believe another NCAA football game will come out in the next few years; too much money is being left on the table. Someone will want to capitalize on this sports popularity.Comment

Please, hurry up & give the OK for a new college football game. Much rather have that over Madden. NCAA 14 on 360 has been keeping me going and it was just be so refreshing to release a new one soon, with a vastly improved TeamBuilder.PS5 PSN: MellowTheMyth | Xbox Series Gamertag: MelloTheMythComment

Haha, I am one of those crazy guys. My favorite to this day was Ben's reasoning of why the facemask everyone wanted was not in the game.BuffEye Rosters available on the Xbox 360 and PS3. The most in-depth roster for NCAA 14 and beyond.

Re: Basking in the Playoff's Success, Attention Turns to NCAA Convention
Regarding EA and the NCAA Series, consider:
1. Madden 15 is now 2 years ahead of NCAA with regard to EA's implementation of the Infinity Engine - and soon to be 3 years ahead, assuming no NCAA 16. Unless and until EA can see the possibility of resurrecting the NCAA Series (free of legal entanglements), EA has no incentive to attempt to port the present game to the next-gen consoles or to add features to the existing game. In fact, EA has a positive incentive to not do anything to bring new attention to possible legal actions so long as there is no clear legal path to producing a licensed college game.
2. The Madden Series has only a short future life on the current-gen consoles, unless sales of next-gen consoles prove to be so poor that Microsoft and Sony discontinue those products (not very likely). So, even if EA resurrects the NCAA Series, it is very unlikely to produce a new game for current-gen consoles.
3. If EA takes down the NCAA Servers, online play might cease, unless someone figures out a way to keep that feature alive via alternate online means. Roster development can continue without EA Servers. More people would need to learn how to use the Editors and Rosters can be shared via email and OS Forums. However, EA has an incentive to maintain the Servers so long as they have a potential interest in a future NCAA game, in order to keep the NCAA community connected to EA.
The good news is that, with NCAA 14, EA left us with the best and most versatile game in the series. External editing has created ways to update Rosters, so the game can be kept current by the community. EA does monitor the forums, so they are very aware of what we are doing with regard to modifying Rosters, etc. via external means, to keep the game alive. If the legal situation is sorted out such that EA decides to return to the game, it is possible that we might see some help from EA with regard to the current-gen game.Roll TideComment

Re: Basking in the Playoff's Success, Attention Turns to NCAA Convention
I was thinking about the close partnership between X1 and EA right now. And then I thought, "Man, Microsoft would move some consoles if they some how came up with an exclusive for NCAA." Just have completely random appearance and ratings. No likeness whatsoever. Random numbers and everything.There's is no denying the popularity of football in north america right now. Say what you will about the legal issues, but I believe another NCAA football game will come out in the next few years; too much money is being left on the table.
