Questions:

Well if you guys do have access to online can you check to see if you can change stadiums in unranked games.

Also can someone post if there is any new plays in the 3-3-5 and 4-2-5.Thanks

Couple quick questions JB. Does Illinois' playbook reflect the hiring of Paul Petrino, ie. is it the Arkansas playbook? Also, if one of you gets the chance, can you take a gander at the Arkansas playbook and let me know if they added a Pistol formation. If they did that then I will be the happiest guy on the internet!

I wonder if we will be able to receive conference invites as well as being hired and fired in Online Dynasties? That's my question lol.

Can you guys check something fairly quickly? Do TB teams still have gray undershirts or are they team colored now?

Another thing, can you say if the stats are numbered like in years past or do we still have to count downward to see what our stat ranking is?

How is crowd noise in the retail version? This is a problem that has always persisted in the next-gen games. Does it sound like a real stadium or does it sound like a high school game?

Any idea if Stadium Sounds have been added to TeamBuilder teams for more than just one condition?

Another question, is there any difference in the Pistol playbooks of Ohio and Indiana from Nevada? Thanks!

#4 - is there any "penalty" for setting your hum DL to "aggressive". i haven't seen my d-line jump offsides yet in the demo and they always "jump the snap"

#5 - is is still nearly impossible to get a user "big hit" with the "hit stick"? - i'm actually hoping this is the case

#6 - for me there were far too many fumbles in the demo - have you seen allot of fumbles in the retail?

It was brought up in another thread, but is dynamic attendance better this year?

I would like to know this as well. I would also like to know if EA fixed the promise "win verses rivals" for teambuilder teams this year. Last year you could make the promise, but it always failed.

Is the CPU's punting any different/better?

The CPU always punts horribly and gives away a ton of yardage because it has no "coffin corner" logic and it generally shanks too many punts.

Has this changed at all?

Here's a question

If you use a bowl stadium from a TB team, is it still split 50/50?

Another question I just thought of. Could you just recruit several seasons at all of the different difficulties with a Powerhouse; "Middle of the Road" and a "Cupcake" and see what difficulties you feel get the most realistic results?

Dreads?

Is the game an INT fest? I'm playing the demo of FSU - Florida and the game has seen 9 INTs. What's amazing is I've thrown 6 and I almost never get picked off on Heisman.

I definitely am curious on how the cpu will run the ball and the type of plays they call. Sick of sack fests because the cpu can't run a proper screen pass.

Another question - did choice and/or read routes make it into the Run and Shoot playbook?

Oh here's my question: Have they FINALLY fixed the pride stickers on Georgia's helmets? They touted this years ago as something cool but they haven't worked right on Georgia since the jump to next-gen basically, that or they broke it along the way... I forgot. Just curious if the dog bones show up on the helmets similar to the buckeye logo on Ohio State's helmets...

This just if any of you guys happen to play as or against Georgia before I get the game. Not a huge deal I'm just curious.

Yep.

As JB mentioned, there is an embargo. However, once the embargo is listed, let us know what you want to see whether it be videos, screen shots, details, etc. I'm sure each of us will post on general impressions as well but also start putting together your list of questions.

[AustinWolv]

Lucky bastards.

Would like to see video on Heisman to check out the pass rush and zone coverage, as well as CPU playcalling.
I'm also curious if they included tutorials for what can be done with the right stick, in case there is something in there that we haven't picked up on.

[JBHuskers]

I will start a running list of requests and put them in the first post of this thread.

With everything lifting on July 9th and my Dell delivery date being July 9th. I am starting to feel good about getting it on that day.

Will you guys have access to online? I'll just curious about how the lobby and online interface is setup.

It would also be GREAT to get your guys' impressions on just how much the pass rush and pass coverage have been improved over the demo. Congrats, by the way!
