Beginning tomorrow, June 29th, the Community Event attendees will be receiving early copies of NCAA Football 12. With that, we'll be able to immediately begin answering questions, posting videos & pictures, etc. Essentially anything that you'll want to see from us in terms of the game, we'll be able to provide to you with the exception that they've asked us not to do any live-streaming.

In light of that, we've setup a new section of the forum that will allow us to organize that information which you may begin to start asking questions. Bear in mind of course, we will not have the game until tomorrow and obviously delivery times will vary. Also realize that while we will do our dead-level best to answer questions and provide what you request, we will still have the intent to play the game for our own enjoyment. So with that said, please use great patience in allowing us to respond.

Without further ado, Post Your Questions in the Q&A Section (http://www.thegamingtailgate.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?65-NCAA-Football-12-Q-amp-A)! Just be sure to use the proper threads provided.

Last year we received our copies around this time but they put an embargo that we couldn't discuss the game until the Friday before release. This is the first that I'm aware that anyone has the game officially from EA and can provide this level of information, this early.

Where should we ask questions related to playbooks and rosters?
There is a ratings thread in there to ask about specific player and/or team ratings... or did you mean something else regarding rosters?
As for playbooks, I added a thread for those as well.

Ahh, ok. I seem to remember, at least off in past years, it seemed like those who got early copies from EA, it didn't arrive until like a week or 10 days before release or something, not two full weeks. Either way, that's good for the people who will be asking questions all hours of the day. Glad they'll at least be able to actually get some answers for stuff.

Ahhh, ok, that must be what it was that made me want to remember nothing coming out info-wise from you guys until a week or less before the release date, it was because of the embargo each year.

Pretty much, anyone that's going to do a review for the game, will be getting their copy around this same time. At least, it always seemed that way so that the reviews were ready to go either the day of release or the day before release.

As somebody who'll be getting an early copy, I'm prepared to do this:

:whoa:

...upon seeing the number of requests that we'll be getting between tomorrow and July 12th haha.

But it's all about the community, and the community is the reason all of us have been lucky enough to do what we did this year. It'll be time-consuming to address all of those requests, but also worthwhile.

If you were receiving the game two weeks early, would you send it off to the roster makers and not get to play it all? I sure as heck wouldn't. Plus I'm sure EA has some sort of legal language that prohibits selling or lending the game off to someone else with a two week early community member/attendee copy.

I believe that would get us a free trip to the EA studio at Guantanamo Bay.

We will have a proper area for roster news and info around release when the roster editors including FAIRDALE KINGS and luvtotha9s get copies.

Yeah, I can guarantee the legal minds at EA have all sorts of legalese left, right and center prohibiting that. Plus, though I don't know if doing something like that would be enough for EA to kick you off the Community Day attendee list, why even chance it. They'll get their copies soon enough, they all have their sources and hookups that they can get the game from early.

Plus, I like I said in my previous post, would anyone really honestly give up their copy that they are getting free from EA a full two weeks early just so some guy halfway across the country can work on rosters a couple days earlier than he normally can?

Yeah, can't speak from review site experience as I think they got them earlier, but it was something like 4-7 days early back in the day for me at an old site.

Sometime after release, someone who has completed their roster set will post their PSN name or XBL gamertag, after that, you can go into the game and from the Team Management menu, you'll select Roster Share (last menu option). That should then give you the option to enter in the name/gamertag that you want to download the rosters from. It will download them for you and let you save them to your console. From there you just load the rosters and you should be good to go.

Closer to release, we'll put together a video walkthrough showing what steps to take. As well, we'll post all the information available on our Rosters page: http://www.thegamingtailgate.com/forums/content.php?2-Rosters

Can anyone of the early bird gamers answer a couple questions for me?

In dynasty mode, can you:
Create more than one rivalry? For example, if I put TCU in the Big XII, can I set them up with a rivalry game with Texas, Texas Tech, and Texas A&M?
When starting a dynasty, can you swap out (in exchange for some TB schools) more than 12 teams? Or is it just still a limit of 12?

I can't believe they haven't improved this process. No game relies more on roster edits for success than NCAA and yet the roster vault functionality is really lacking. The baseball games let you share rosters because the game devs aren't allowed to include names for the minor league players. But they have a roster vault section that lists all the rosters available and lets you sort by ratings (everyone can rate the roster downloads), number of downloads, etc. This would be a huge benefit to gamers trying to find good NCAA rosters. The casual gamer probably doesn't know the PSN/360 gamertag of a roster creator and that leads to that Brian guy making about $80,000 a year selling rosters to people. At least he used to make that much money. Why hasn't this been improved upon?

He bought our Fairdale Kings for a decent amount to protect his investment. I think he was gloating on OS and even posted a pic of his paypal account one year. I think it was almost $80,000 or at least $60,000. Maybe he was lying but he has done quite a bit to make this money. He was even interviewed by a bigger website which helped him even more.

Not surprised, since you have people who pay $3 for ONE bottle of water and pay $50 through $100 for HDMI cables & Cat6e cables. Heck Best Buy right now highest HDMI cable is 1,089.99 and it has 2
3 customer reviews http://www.bestbuy.com/site/AudioQuest+-+Chocolate+65.6'+HDMI+Cable+-+Platinum+White/9892794.p?skuId=9892794&id=1218202121644#tabbed-customerreviews

He bought fkrosters.com from Fairdale. Fairdale took the money, and then turned right around and created a brand new website at fairdale-kings.com.

Pardon my language but I'd smack the sh!t out of someone if they paid a rack for a HDMI cable. I don't care how rich they are, thats just stupid.

People love making it rain at Best Buy. And way too many people think price = quality

And way too many people think price = qualityThat is true to an extent, but I agree that there's a point which makes that comparison ridiculous.

My favorite example of this is Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs:

Nathan's began as a nickel hot dog stand in Coney Island in 1916 and bears the name of co-founder Nathan Handwerker, who started the business with his wife, Ida Handwerker. Handwerker, an employee of Feltman's German Gardens, was encouraged by singing waiters Eddie Cantor and Jimmy Durante, to go into business in competition with his former employer. Handwerker undercut Feltman's by charging five cents for a hot dog when his former employer was charging ten. At a time when food regulation was in its infancy and the pedigree of the hot dog particularly suspect, Handwerker made sure that men wearing surgeon's smocks were seen eating at his stand to reassure potential customers. The business proved immensely popular.

Because he was selling his hotdogs for "only" five cents, he had to get doctors to eat his product while wearing their smocks, in order to convince Joe Public that his hot dogs weren't imitation or fake. For some reason, people thought that ten cents was the lowest price for a "quality" hot dog.

He bought our Fairdale Kings for a decent amount to protect his investment. I think he was gloating on OS and even posted a pic of his paypal account one year. I think it was almost $80,000 or at least $60,000. Maybe he was lying but he has done quite a bit to make this money. He was even interviewed by a bigger website which helped him even more.

It's such a rip off. That's why EA needs to improve the roster vault feature so people can get good rosters for free. If a casual fans doesn't know what name to put in he's screwed. I'm sure a website search can lead him to a roster creator but EA can certainly improve that feature a lot. Make a list of all rosters available and make it sortable by rating and number of downloads.

Honestly the way I look at it, its not my problem if people want to go buy rosters from him, I have bought stuff online only to find out later I could have gotten it for free (maybe through nonethical means, but I still could have gotten it). I don't think its EA's problem either if the guy wants to charge for them and people are willing to pay, they have included the feature, the year it was released they did advertise it, now if people don't do a google search and find others who are offering it then that's them. Not enough for me to get all personal with the dude even if he is a dickhead.

I am not disagreeing with your logic on the fact that they could list the rosters available.

And try to post all free roster info all over the place so people find it instead of that ripoff artist's page.

Can anyone of the early bird gamers answer a couple questions for me?

In dynasty mode, can you:
Create more than one rivalry? For example, if I put TCU in the Big XII, can I set them up with a rivalry game with Texas, Texas Tech, and Texas A&M?
When starting a dynasty, can you swap out (in exchange for some TB schools) more than 12 teams? Or is it just still a limit of 12?

You might want to ask this in the Q&A Forum (http://www.thegamingtailgate.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?65-NCAA-Football-12-Q-amp-A) like in the Dynasty & Coaching Carousel Thread (http://www.thegamingtailgate.com/forums/showthread.php?2524-Dynasty-amp-Coaching-Carousel).
