Adam Thompson (NCAA Designer) Q&A Thread

[dkrause1971]

Adam-
I know this isn't your area, maybe you could ask another but why doesn't NCAA use proper positions in their rosters. Like Strong Side Backer instead of LOLB for example. With that system then the SLB would always be over the TE instead of just on the left side.

Also, we should be able to set the matchups in the menu. So say CB1 always covers WR1 in man to man D. This was well done in APF and could eliminate some of the issues people have with the cpu quick snapping.

Lastly, any chance we can get the rosters in excel before release date

I don't think I've seen any Lions fans on here, lol.

radiohead. It got changed from Southwest Missouri State to Missouri State.

Also, Soonerd2 it's the Bears and not the Lions. Just FYI.

Don't know if this is the correct place to post this, but is the pursuit angle bug and discipline bug fixed in the PS2 version. If they are you can get two purchases out of me, instead of just one.

I'm an idiot I was thinking of Missouri Southern State College.

(To be honest, progressive lighting is my single favorite feature of next-gen gaming; Adam mentioned that no one seemed to notice how kick-*** the lighting in 07 was; I sure as hell did! It was awesome!)

It was my favorite feature too and I sure did notice it.

I did suggest an stand in solution for this year of just switching over from one sky template to another in between quarters in dynasty (so just switch the dusk sky template over to the night one at the beginning of the 4th quarter, etc...). I don't know if it would be possible to include it in a patch though.

Thats a good thought, I'm not big on the progressive lighting, but something like you mentioned would be enough for me to enjoy the effects.

that would make it more realistic.

I think it is basically what they did in '06 LG, mostly it would be better than nothing at all to me and would go a long way in making me forget the feature was missing.

sounds good, but I don't think it would be included in a patch.
