Some, yes. Courts should be all accurate as well.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but unfortunately, this isn't accurate. Producer Joe Stallings told us on the first day of the event that named rosters would not be viewable online.

I confirmed with EA today - Stallings' information is accurate; named rosters WILL NOT be viewable online.

I assume that means equipment edits, etc will also not be able to be seen online.

It's not the end of the world for me, I never play college basketball games online. I have the NBA game(s) for that, college games I'm all about the legacy mode.

I'm a little disappointed. I play online and exhibition more than anything else.

Was this a feature in CH2K8?

Yeah, it's been in College Hoops and NCAA Football for years now.

In fact, BShadows even tested it out and found that if two CH 2K8 gamers have the exact same roster file, that's the file that will be used online. So CH 2K9 games would be possible online.

If the files are different, you play with the default players and ratings, but it uploads your custom names. So it's like loading a partial roster.

You said that EA is adding more motion-captured jumpshots, but does that mean you can go into the player editor and manually pick what jumpshot you want a player to have, or is one automatically assigned to them? Thanks.

Hi I just wanted to know a couple of things first will there be a training camp, some sort of aau camp, or nike camp like in 2k, will the training be conducted like in the past which was one thing I hated about march madness was having to use a point system. Is the recruiting better do you still have to use points or have they went a college football style and last but not least are the coaches on the sideline and do they make life like comparisons ie if you losing do they get mad and and stomp on the ground and push chairs you know go all out. Also will there be a midnight madness thank you and have a great day.
