NCAA Football 10: TeamBuilder (Press Release)

08:29 PM - April 27, 2009 by Steve_OS

April 27, 2009 — Create-a-School was first introduced in NCAA Football 2000 on the PlayStation. The PS2 version made its debut in NCAA Football 2003. For three years, fans have anxiously awaited the next generation of this feature. The wait is now over, as EA SPORTS proudly announces the arrival of TeamBuilder.

TeamBuilder is a web-based create-a-school feature that allows anyone with Internet access to log on to teambuilder.easports.com to create and share schools with the rest of the NCAA Football 10 community. These created schools can be downloaded in the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of NCAA Football 10 and can be used in Play Now, Dynasty, and Online Dynasty modes. TeamBuilder will go live approximately one month before the July 14th launch of NCAA Football 10.

Nevermind. New question...can you upload your team onto the system hard drive via a flash drive?

# 22 LuCante850 @ 04/30/09 12:14 PM

do you only have to replace an existing team with your created team in dynasty or online dynasty, not in play now?
or when you create a school do you have to permanently replace a team from the game?

no, you only replace them in dynasty mode(on and offline). but you can't edit created teams in the front-end main menu of the game.

so to edit that team i would have to make a whole new save file and upload it again is that what im understanding?

don't know exactly how it would work, but you should be able to edit your team online on the web. it keeps track of all the teams you create on your EA account. then on your console, download your updated team and overwrite the old one.

i cant believe this is true lol. its more then i could of thought for bringing back create-a-school !

# 27 NFLHITMAN @ 05/09/09 08:47 PM

I saw the video of this and wanted to know if anyone knows if the 360 will operate as a computer to get Logo's? When I saw the video of them getting the Logo for IGN I couldn't tell if they were getting this feature from there console or there Computer. If they are getting there Logo's from a computer how would it transfer over to the console? here is the video I was referring to.....

TeamBuilder is web-based and is done on the computer, not the 360/PS3. you make your team on the web site and then download that team from your console for you to use. the logo is part of the team when you download it.

Thanks for the info but one more question.....

This does not require any other accessories to download it on to your 360 does it? How does it know what 360 to transfer to?

You also seem like someone who loves College Football so here is another for you

Does or will there be a 3-4 defense you can choose for your college team?

I can't wait for this game to come out!

# 31 baumy300 @ 05/09/09 09:16 PM

Is the only way to get the extra 13 slots by pre-ordering?

# 32 Potatoes002 @ 05/09/09 09:24 PM

You could probably get it if you pick it up at gamestop, i would assume the code is behind the instuctions like they do for other games like saints row and stuff...

from what we know, on your 360, you'll just do a search of your gamertag and it'll show all the teams you made. you'll download it/them and your good to go. you can download anyone's created team, as long as they are set up to be public, even if their system is not the same as yours. you don't need any other equipment to get them, just need at least an Xbox Live Silver(free) account.

Thanks for your help! The last NCAA bought had the COOLEST feature I have ever seen in a game. I remember the Home Field advantage and the Top 25 schools for it where your controller would shake and your screen would shake also. Is that in NCAA 10?

the Home Field Advantage is still there, I believe the controller still shakes, but the screen doesn't anymore(at least not much like it used to be). however, if your the away team with a bad QB, the routes will show up squiggly and some of the icons will show a ? on it until you snap the ball.

like this.

SWEETTTTTT!!!! I live in Oregon and I am a Washington Husky fan but I really like Oregons uniforms so I will use both and both Ducks and Husky Stadiums are loud! I am also a Seahawks fan and there Stadium is the loudest stadium I have ever heard in a NFL game so I want to feel that when I play the game

# 37 tswiatkowski @ 05/13/09 05:37 PM

I have a question on uploading logos. How effective will this feature be, and if I want to create my own logo, what program should I use so that it will show up correctly? Please respond to this question because it is really bugging me.
