Least Annoying/Time Consuming Recruiting?

[diamok]

Hey all,

Pretty much as the title states, looking for whichever version of the game is the least boring, time consuming and doesn't require me rummaging through multiple menus/screens to send a scholarship, invite or anything to a potential recruit.

In depth "realism" is nice and all, but having to place countless points into some dumb rudimentary meaningless system over and over for each recruit just kills and ruins the fun of recruiting for me.

And I get this is subjective, we all enjoy different things. Just give me your opinion on the version you think I would be into.

Cheers all and be safe,

Have you tried setting assisted recruiting to ON and thus the AI is doing the recruiting for you? All versions of NCAA have this.

It's not that I don't want to do the recruiting myself, it's that I know some versions have more streamlined or stripped down recruiting then others, but have no clue which ones are like that.

I am looking for a version of this nature...not as I said, menu after menu then assigning this point into that slot, then that point into this slot, then another menu and do it all over again, then the next recruit and so on and so on. I don't want to spend 10 hours assigning points for recruiting and only 30 minutes playing a game...that's not fun to me.

Thanks for suggestion,

Re: Least Annoying/Time Consuming Recruiting?

makes sence, 11 & 13 had the call system which in my opinion was better and more immersive than the 14's point system. On the flip side that system was even more time consuming if recruiting was not your thing - however you can still streamline it by automating the call with a "Quick Call" essentially automating the topics for you and it takes you only a couple of minutes per week to do that.

11 and 13...okay, I'll check em out, thanks.

Anyone else?

sorry i meant to say 11-13. You can try it on RPCS3 on PC probably cheapest way to try before you buy a real PS3 disk

‘14 is actually the most streamlined recruiting system of the last several versions. If you haven’t experienced the phone call system of ‘11-‘13, that’s even more time consuming. But it’s different and maybe a change of scenery would be what you need.

I know in ‘06, all of the actual in-depth recruiting was done in the offseason and in-season recruiting was super streamlined, so there’s that. If you have the time, I would check out ‘06, and one of the ‘11 thru ‘13 games and find your match.

I would say 06 as some one else has mentioned. In season recruiting was brand new that year it took up very little time and was simple but still took strategy. Off season was a little more in depth and took some more skill as you were pitching every week instead of just one pitch for a visit. 06 is also the best game and its not even close from game play stand point so there is that. 04 is another great choice but no in season recruiting and they have that rotating conference schedule issue. I say 06.
