    were those games played at Arrowhead in the game in dynasty mode last year?

    if they were, they probably wont this year as Arrowhead is no longer in the game I don't think.

    I'm not sure about last year as I didn't get the game. And I know you can't answer this, but why would they take Arrowhead out of the game? They have the stadium rendered perfectly and it is used in college football besides the Big XII Championship, which is now in Dallas. Sometimes EA eliminates stuff that makes no sense.

    The MU/KU games is called The Border War... it's always at Arrowhead...

    And Solidice, thanks for the heads up on OS on the TT/SMU game. I'll be looking for that tomorrow!

    I suppose it was taken out as they didn't have any game there since the Big XII championship is at the Cowboys stadium, and it was added this year. they haven't added any other neutral site games for dynasty mode in years I don't think.

    there are a lot of neutral site games in real life, but are not in the game. Texas Tech played Baylor at the Cowboys stadium last year, and I think this year they will as well(or maybe it's at the Cotton bowl stadium in Dallas this year, I forget)

I'll back out of the player ratings screen and back to the recruits list only to see that he's a JUCO (btw this year it lists whether they're a JR or SO). It definitely makes you stop and try to make a decision.
    Very cool. Jucos being worth taking and actually being listed as sophs or jrs was on my personal wishlist.

    Probably a silly question but one I really hope has made it to NCAA 11; can you play co-op during play now/offline dynasty, so my friend and I can both play on the same team against the CPU?

  8. #208
    Not sure if you've been able to test this or not, but do new recruits show up in the offseason or was it taken out? If its still there, does the cpu actually offer them this year? Seemed like last year most of the bonus recruits didn't get a cpu offer until wk3 or wk4 of offseason, if at all.

    Are you guys seeing the playaction glitch where the QB runs back in the handoff animation forever?

    The reason I ask is someone asking on OS if this would be patched, but I noticed they said it would be fixed by full-retail version.

    I did in fact see it the other day, just once so far. I believe it's only on a certain play, it's some sort of PA screen pass I believe.

    Are screen plays still "money" this year? And can the CPU actually run a screen play without being stupid and get sacked everytime?

    What are your impressions on fatigue? Are you actually seeing players, RB's WR's and DL-men especially, geting subbed in and out effectively?

    NICE CATCH!!! I forgot that it was in the Big 12 Championship. This will definitely go on the stadium requests as of Tuesday or when the '12 wishlist goes up.

    With all the room on a Blu Ray disc, there is no reason to remove any stadiums from the PS3 edition!

    Hey I heard that Wisconsin's O-Line is suppose to be rated all 90's and up. Can someone with the game check that for me. Also how good is RB John Clay in the game overall. Also while your checking can you do... QB Scott Tolzien and WR Nick Toon. I'm thinking about using the Badgers since the running in 2011 is so fun and they should have a basis for a solid offense.

    What classifies as an elite Prospect has changed from previous years with the new ratings spread. As you can imagine, you'll no longer see true freshman come into the game rated in the 90's OVR or even high 80's OVR. Only the top Prospects at any position this year will come in over an 80 OVR and depending on your school, he may or may not be able to start instantly.

    ...

    Once we got the Prospects created and ranked, we moved onto JUCO's next. These Prospects were really easy to deal with after all the work done above. We simply raised the attributes of every JUCO a few points more than they would have been with the new ratings spread and made the value of a JUCO lower in the rankings. So here is a likely scenario for 4 different Prospects you'll see once you have the game:

    Player A - True Freshman QB, 70 Overall rating, 90 Potential rating
    Player B - JUCO Junior HB, 75 Overall rating, 75 Potential rating
    Player C - True Freshman HB, 73 Overall rating, 50 Potential rating
    Player D - True Freshman QB, 71 Overall rating, 70 Potential rating

    On average with the 4 players above would end up being ranked like this in NCAA Football 11:
    1. Player A
    2. Player D
    3. Player C
    4. Player B
    In previous years, only overall would have mattered.
    Hope this helped

    I don't think I ever really thought they were money so to speak but no, I don't think they're money this year. The CPU does seem to handle itself better. There are times that it still plays it stupidly but for the most part, it's better.

    Fatigue has a good feel to it. They seemed to do a really good job at handling fatigue in no-huddle offenses. One nice touch is that when you're at the formation selection screen, not only will you see your guys fatigue rating but if you wait long enough to call your play, you'll actually see them go from orange to yellow, and so on. Really encourages you to consider your tempo.
