Online Dynasty, Dynasty Wire, & Story Builder - NCAA Football 12 Wish List & Feedback

[psuexv]

Jeff - here is where you can view other teams that are user controlled.



But now as I look into it further this functionality isn't there if you are viewing a dynasty that you are not in. That really is kind of dumb.

Oh, absolutely. I would definitely like that, and not just for those types of moments. I love to go back and look at recruits, see what their ratings were during recruiting, etc. Last year when we could make Offline copies, I had probably 3 or 4 offline saves per season of an OD.

This would be really cool. I love to go back and look at the history. I actually did this for my OD in last years game. Every team had their own page and could set it up how they wanted. I used to keep track of all of my recruiting classes - https://sites.google.com/site/ncaasi...uiting-central

Bingo

The ability to see which players that you currently have on redshirt while viewing your roster online.

I was just re-reading cdj's article on Team Pitches in Recruiting and came across this:

Program Stability – Changes are based on a combination of the coach’s prestige and current contract length in offline dynasties (team prestige in online dynasty)

To put it simply, this is fundamentally broken in Online Dynasty. It clearly has nothing to do with team prestige because it gets dropped to a C+ on most teams (if not every team in our OD, I haven't taken a poll) after Year 1. I assumed it was because my Job Security was in the red at the end of the year and I'd been "fired", but if that has no influence on ODs (and cdj's post suggests it does not), then it's just plain broken.

Looks to me like Dynasty Wire is set to GMT times, even though the Dynasty Wire itself claims stories are posted at EST times. Be nice to see that fixed at some point.

The e-mail that gets sent for the Weekly Update, during the offseason, includes results of games that occurred during the season. Interestingly enough, we're now in Offseason Recruiting Week 3, and the games / results included in the Weekly Update are from the previous season's Week 3.

The Dynasty Wire "Prospects" data dump doesn't get updated during the offseason. So no "offseason" recruits are included

That's not true.

[JeffHCross]

That's not true.

Well, I just went looking for some offseason recruits, and they're not in our dump. As well, any movement I made in the offseason on recruits that were part of the in-season group has not been updated. Went for the logical conclusion from there, though it's always possible that I'm wrong.

Well, I know that there is an increase in the number of recruits from in-season and off-season. As well, I see that Kendall Jude (FS I signed) is in the off-season but not the in-season.

[JeffHCross]

Jude is in an Export file for Prospects that you grabbed during the offseason? He's not in the copy that I grabbed just before that post.

Yes... I downloaded it during Week 2 recruiting I believe.

[JeffHCross]

Interesting. I suppose that somehow my PC cached the old file. I'll retract that previous 'issue' then.

[JeffHCross]

It'd be really nice if the Data Export for Rosters included Height/Weight.

Serious question... would you be satisfied just watching a Drive Chart type interface with possibly the commentary included?

Obviously to late for 12 but a reminder for 13. A gamecast or drive chart type thing would be great, especially if it was both web and console accessible. It's one thing to party up while two dynasty members are playing the NC game but it would be even better if you could watch/track the progress of h2h games live.
