I did look at their uniforms and they appeared to the same as last year. Obviously depending on how they handle that post release, it potentially could be changed once Houston unveils their new uniforms.
    Pretty much what I expected. I've been playing this game since the Bill Walsh days, and in all that time my Coogs have never had a uni change "in the game" the same year it happened. Such is life as a mid-major...

    Anyway, thanks for checking.

    Beyond TeamBuilder, will duplicate #'s be allowed for rosters?

    Anybody from the community day: In the first sights and sounds playbook the guys mention and show several different "heads", including several with long hair, that have been added to the game. They do mention that during "heisman mode" you'll have more heads to choose from, but they never mention and I haven't seen a single player with "long hair" that wasn't dreads in any of the photos or videos. So the question is: Is long hair in the play now part of the game like dreads are or is it just a head to make the pregame menus and recruits look more diversified?

    My understanding in January was that we'd see those other hair styles in game, etc. but when we were there in April, I still only saw the same old predator dreads from 12.

    Question, has anything been done to the gameplan features? Have they been tuned so the cpu does not jump the snap every play at least?

    I don't know any specifics on that... personally I rarely touch the gameplan features.

    I am talking about when you play the cpu and they do jump the snap. No problem if you did not pay attention to it.

    If you're getting jumped all the time, it means you're not mixing up your snap count at all.

    Not defending the game cheesing feature, I hate it. Just saying.

    Well, when you use shitty teams and they decide to make your guys false start every time you fake snap it doesn't help.

    personally, i would love some little ticker that i could set my snap count. snapping before the intended count could result in a fumble between qb and center and snapping after the intended count leads to a false start. not a huge thing, but its an idea at least. they could offer it for the defense too, giving you a chance to anticipate a certain count.

    I said this awhile ago. Should be set until you change it. Missing the snap count by user always results in a false start. Love it!

    I have gotten some clarification on this, they are still working on the way these heads interact with the helmets. Long story short: If they can get it figured out and have player models with different hair styles in the menu, then you will see that hair in game. Otherwise they will most likely remove the player models with hair that they can't get to show up correctly in game.

    Not sure where to ask this very important question but does anyone know if anything will be changed on the TB website for 13? ...besides to school info (school pitches).

    Are Ram and I the only TB nerds here? I've really gotten into creating logos using Paint.

    Yeah, I remember seeing one of the CD guys make a post about that before, but I can't remember the reason anymore. I might have to do some searching to find it.

    You two might quite possibly be. I haven't done too much with TB. I created an Alaska State team in NCAA 11 and 12, downloaded a couple of FCS teams created by others, but that was about it.

    Most of the time for me, I try to keep my dynasties as accurate to real life as possible, even down to the conference changes from year to year, so I don't mess around too much with TB teams and bringing in TB teams to my dynasties.

    But if they did actually make some changes this year, maybe I'll try some more stuff with it. Other than that, I've never really found it too useful other than to download already created teams, which I can do all from my console.

    Ya, I have one dynasty where I replace the MAC with TB and one where I start as a DC on the worst defense. I was thinking of using Texas State this year. Which bring up another question. Has EA mentioned which, if any, of the new teams have their real stadium in the game?

    I don't think we've officially heard anything (at least not that I can remember), but I'd be willing to probably go ahead and say no. Not sure if EA would be able to get to all three (or four if they included Georgia State in their stadium road trip) scanned, in their computers back at EA, and implemented into the game in less than a year. Though I also don't know for a fact how long it actually takes them, so maybe they did. Unless the CD guys can say one way or the other, probably anyone's best guess.

    Tiburon was given incorrect information. They were led to believe that Texas State, UTSA and UMass would be full members of FBS in 2012, while South Alabama was still probationary. Once they were told that all four schools had the same status, it was too late to either remove the three or add South Alabama.

    You do remember my 1995 Ohio State Buckeyes threads, right?

    Last year there were changes made to Teambuilder (maybe not the website, but definitely to how TB teams were handled in game), yet it wasn't talked about at all. I mean to the point that nobody even mentioned it to us in Orlando. The dynasty changes were something I discovered while answering a Q&A here when I had the game in hand. Absolutely stunned me. So, even if changes are going to be made, I'm not sure anyone would know at this stage.
