Hey guys... so we are aware of the issue with no (or few) freshmen on some teams in TeamBuilder and yes the same issues are found on the NCAA 10 disc. Over the past few days, one of our top priorities has been investigating solutions. The TeamBuilder teams require some data on the disc to set Depth Charts for every team created before they can be used in a game. For example if you use the Cupcake roster as a starting point, NCAA 10 will give you a default Depth Chart for the Cupcakes for your TeamBuilder team (which you can edit in game). This means any changes we make could cause some problems with teams already created using TeamBuilder. So we need to ensure we are taking to proper steps to correct the issues.We understand the concerns with how this can affect Dynasty mode and Online Games, so we are working hard to have a solution in place before launch on July 14th.-Russ
AND ANOTHER NCAA DESIGNER CHIMED IN WITH THIS...
We aren't sure of what happened yet, but we didn't want to continue leaving you guys in the dark on what is going on. It looks like the wrong version of the rosters made the final build, but we don't know for sure yet. Our efforts now are on remedying the situation the best we can.
There is a laundry list of repsonses from gamers like us, including this one...
This is a bigger issue than just missing some freshmen on certain teams. The ratings for nearly every team are way off as well! I know Iowa and Mich st. are screwed up beyond belief. Anyone hoping to buy this game to play online should give a real hard thought against it. How can I ever play with MSU when the best player on the team (Greg Jones) a top 10 defensive big ten player is a 78 overall!!! (he has the same ratings as last year), this is just plain laziness by the new roster guy as far as I can see. This isn't going to be as easy as people think either, as far as putting out new more accurate rosters, this could take a couple months if its done right! These rosters are messed up that bad. Why dont some of you understand this? Biggest disappointment in NCAA 10 this year has to be the rosters if you ask me
This is a good example of how messed up some teams are. Boooo! Hopefully this will get fixed by the time the game is released in just over a month. As best I remember, it usually takes a week or more for the rosters to be posted to download, and I agree that it will likely take a lot longer with this year's roster issues. Here's the issue the EA game designers are wrestling with, how do they fix the rosters without affecting the more than 50,000 created teambuilder teams that have been created already? I say, shut down the teambuilder site, delete all the teams, and get the rosters fixed ASAP! People can go back in and create their teams again, it takes no time at all really. Especially since (I bet) most of those created schools won't even be used in the game ever!
One thing I think is certain, this is a big deal that the EA people are acknowledging, and I think it really will affect game sales if nothing is fixed before the game hits store shelves on July 14. I mean, if all else, just delay the game release a few weeks, right??
Raise your hand if you're glad NCAA focused on adding "sportsmanship," "setup plays" and "Season Showdown" to this year's game!! Epic fail! ha!
