Even though we had an early look at some of the changes to the NCAA Football 11 TeamBuilder site, it was an inadvertent leak of the site. However, EA has now officially unveiled the site which can be accessed by going to http://teambuilder.easports.com/. While, most of the changes from when we last saw the site are cosmetic, this should now allow you to create teams that will be compatible with the upcoming release of NCAA Football 11 on July 13th.

Courtesy EA Sports: On Monday the 14th, the demo for NCAA Football 11 was released on Xbox Live and the Playstation Marketplace, and so far the impressions have been overwhelmingly positive. But some are wondering, is the Demo truly NCAA Football 11? It came out a month before the game is due to hit shelves, so does that mean we put another month of work into the game after that? Yes it does! As a matter of fact, we finished the demo on the 1st of May and finished the game on the 1st of June. In this blog I will address some of the differences between the demo and the final product.

On the NCAA Football 11 website a new blog has been posted by developer Ben Haumiller talking about the changes made to the play calling system in NCAA Football 11:

The most important screen in the game without a doubt is the play call screen. This is where you need to make quick strategic decisions. It is of the utmost importance that everything is available to you quickly and easily; especially when going up against an up tempo, no-huddle offense.

With that in mind we determined that the play call screen needed to be streamlined for NCAA Football 11. A lot of the Play Call features I'll be talking about have been in previous versions of the game, our goal wasn't to blow everything up and start from scratch, however, we wanted to make it feel as if all of your playbook options were always at your fingertips. In this blog, we will go into those updates as well as talk about the crucial role the NCAA community members had in shaping the final version of the screen.

ESPN Video Games has posted the first information on a big new feature coming to NCAA Football 10 - Dynasty Wire. Building off of the wildly successful Online Dynasty feature in NCAA Football 09, Dynasty Wire uses the internet to provide a place to showcase player & league highlights as well as the ability to recruit on the web. From the ESPN Video Games article:

With "NCAA Football 09", EA Sports introduced football fans to their version of an online dynasty where gamers were able to play in a conference with up to 12 players, but managing your school had to be done through the console. This year, the team behind "NCAA Football 11" is finally taking the feature full-force to the Web, enabling gamers to log onto their dynasty anywhere they have access to the Internet, whether it's on a computer, iPhone, or even an iPad.

That's right, now if you an extra 20 minutes to kill at work (or if you just don't feel like working), you can log onto your team online, schedule a game, try to recruit that strong-armed quarterback for next season, and even write up a news story about how you destroyed Florida the night before and post the story to Facebook.
