The development team is not just catering to one subset of users and they're certainly not catering just to the vocal minority. They have to cater to the mascot mode guy on up to the guy that plays straight on Heisman and still blows out Florida using Idaho.

Yeah this was a great idea and hopefully it shakes out well. I wonder how many new users may sign up for Utopia now

Here's the Jaymo76 top 10.

1. Formation Subs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**** NO OPTION ON THIS ONE^^^^^


2. FCS teams
3. Pre game show / players warming up
4. Customizable playbooks
5. Refs and Coaches on the field
6. Stadium rumble with player skill/composure bubbles
7. Heisman Ceremony
8. Spring Game
9. Selecting your captains (O and D)
10. Player discipline

Now I've only been playing NCAA for close to a decade... NCAA football is my favourite series and NCAA 06 is the best NCAA ever... so what could I possibly know about college football gaming You may notice things not on my list: season showdown, game-planning... hmmm...

Odd how all the things on your list (except for #9 and maybe 5, IIRC) were in the game at some point

All of these features were in 06 and 07 on ps2, including choosing your captains AND having refs and coaches on the field. Yes the game has declined that much... I keep waiting to hear year after year that the "greatness" will be back but now I am more resigned to the fact that the glory days of NCAA are gone and may never come back again

Solid list man. I am with you and dont understand how these things are not in the next gen. Its like all of the EA hard drives and servers crashed or something and they lost all of the coding. You would think it would not be that hard, but maybe Im wrong.

Personally I really really really want an AD mode type feature
Basically exactly like the one born4corn presented with all of us. That would make keeping high prestige teams at the top more fun and tougher, and bringing teams up harder and fun as well.

Good points.

I would have 2 tournaments. One for gameplay/sim issues and one for presentation/graphical issues.

For example, the team responsible for "new playbook in practice" would be different than those putting in new mascots.

Great point. On the field areas (gameplay) come way before other areas, but they are two separate teams, which is good in a way.

Thanks for posting Steve!
