That's all I'm asking for. So many people have complained in the past about game companies adding features galore before getting the core gameplay down first. It looks like that is what EA is finally doing this time around and I'm pretty damn excited about it.

I was also at the community event and will be very surprised if people legitimately don't like this game after giving it a fair chance.
Of course, I expect EA haters to have their minds made up in advance.

True. From what I've played the game is a vast improvement over NCAA 08 and actually tweaked over what we will see in NBA Live 09.
I'm excited to see everyone's reaction it.

Hey Dave!Paul here hope all is well up there!

Me, personally I'm going to really start getting annoyed seeing post after post of "feature" negativity. I understand that we all get amped and upset but deciding on a game's actuallmerit based off of mere "feature set or online functionality" is sometimes laughable when back in the day it was something that didn't even matter.

IMO, some people are gonna hate this game regardless of how it turns out.
It's like that Simpsons episode where Bart was determined Krusty was coming to kamp (Kamp Krusty).

Same thing with Live 09, no matter how improved it is, it's gonna be a target for hate and non-stop nitpicking.

EA is pretty much in a no-win situation here.

I'm definitely going to rent this game when it comes out, and thanks for giving us this info Tomba!

i doubt it, they've never gotten that schedule part right not once. they should give us full controll of playing any game just like ncaa football has always done.

What about Coach Mode...Is it there for us 2K Coach Moders?

So are we just not going to get an answer about multiplayer dynasties. I realize that people want a quality game with great gameplay, but this is a feature that is really important to some of us. I realize there have been a lot of questions thrown out there but I (as well as many others) would like an answer about multiplayer dynasties.

Thanks for answering questions. Do you know the number of teams there are in this game? Also, did you notice any new teams? Thanks.
