Re: Adam Thompson (NCAA Designer) Q&A Thread

Thanks for answering questions. This is wonderful. Wanted to mention this...

----

from a press releases around may 8th...

"...NCAA Football 09 will also host a lot of visual upgrades to stadiums to reflect both the new engine as well as remodeling of stadiums, such as Wake Forest's new Deacon Tower. There will also be new stadiums included, such as the University of Idaho's Kibbie Dome."

----

If it really is the case that this is not true, EA might want to clear that up.

does "such as" mean "maybe and not quite"?

Thanks!

Question about sending a man in motion.

We can only send one man in motion for each snap. Have you guys looked into once a man goes in motion and is set that we could then send another man in motion.

IE send the TE from right to the left, once he is set we could move the rb from the backfield into the slot? Etc...

careful dookster - you're getting into the cheesers paradise realm there...not you per se but allowing people to do that could open it up for exploits

Where did you see that? Also, can you be more specific about Deacon Tower? All I am aware of is a new pressbox that Ben told me was in construction when he went there for the WF-FSU game last season.

Adam, when you get time can you get back to the CPU vs. CPU thread and let us know if this feature is available in Dynasty mode or just exhibition? Thanks much.

CPU vs CPU: is it in '09?

The answer to that is no, it has been stated that no changes will be made to the game at this point.

It's a similar story for Head Coach 09 - no PAL release, so the only way of getting it in Europe is to get a PS3 and import the game - luckily I'm in this position but it would certainly benefit EA making these titles region free in my opinion...as you say, you would sell more games!
So Xbox360s bought in the UK can only play 360 games sold in the UK? That seems really retarded IMO, why would it be made like that...its the same system? If thats the case, why dont you just buy an American 360, and buy the US release of all the 360 games you want...would it work that way?

It's worked that way with every single system (except PC of course) before the PS3...
