NCAA 10 Duck Style, UPDATED: roster

by trumpetduck on Jul 14, 2009 3:35 PM PDT

So I picked up the new EA NCAA Football 10 today and thought I would share some Duck related info.

Quick Roster Notes

QB- Roper on the team

RB-LMJ is a sophomore, but you can change that

WR-Pflu and Harper and on the roster, but no Gianes.

TE-Got Jordan as a TE, sweet

OL-?? who knows, even I wont have the OL numbers down till the season starts

DL- Blair is starting at End and Ferras and Toina are starting tackles (Sorry BisonDuck, your article is irrelevant in videogame land)

LB/DB- Thumbs up, they look good to me

UPDATE

Thanks to Doug for pointing out the best (so far) roster update. EASCncaa10. I just skimmed it but once loaded, but all the major mistakes seem to be corrected.

Playbook

Really similar to last years playbook with two major changes. There are now a few formations in shotgun in which the TE will actually play HBack. Lots of fun shifting around to fills the FB and TE roles and lots of fun plays. There is also now a WIldDuck formation. Blount at QB, LMJ running the flysweep and Masoli chillen outside, lots of fun things to do.

Abilities

Masoli and Blount have everything you could want in the trucking department. They are both really good in this game, fun fun backfield. Holland is fast. And TJ Ward can HIT HIT HIT.

Uniforms

EA built a new uniform select screen in which you can pick from Home, Away, Alts and Custom. Teams have an appropriate number of alternates, you know three or four, a few with six and one team even had 14, attention whores. You can also chose what color for every element (Lid, Top, Pants, Socks, Shoes). Oregon has Green, Yellow, White and Black for the main parts, but NO black helmet. Only black and white socks and shoes for all. No wings anywhere, not even blacks from last year. Maybe a DL later.

For an actual review of the gameplay you are going to have to look elsewhere cause I'm lazy but I will say I am really enjoying the game so far, the new features are working well.

Damn you pointguard, I wrote this post early this morning but my cable has be out all day. Sorry im going to throw it up anyway.

Like last year, I intend to correct all these things, including their attributes.

do you know if you can import in rosters again this year? I looked around for a bit and didn’t see it.

I’m excited to turn little pflu into a mass of southern wr muscle and dreads and I shall name him Gaines.

If Chip Kelly was a GM and that was a trade, I think I’d be fairly pleased.

I'm really tired of it not being football season.

I made David Paulson into Morgan Flint.

It’s part of the online builder. I haven’t purchased the game yet, so I can’t tell ya how to get it… but still… it’s there-ish.

Least you don't have to toil with "Pflugard" again, right Shu? ;)

I'd be down once I get the game.

Which may or may not happen.

I'd do it but

I own EA stock, and I’d smash all of you to the point that not only would you be scared to approach a gaming console ever again, but TVs in general. The following dive in purchase of video games would hurt my portfolio to an extent that I cannot bear in these tough economic times.

Actually though, do you have a gamertag?

Rosters, etc.

So word from all the NCAA 10 honks (especially over on Operation Sports) is that the on-disc rosters for the game are really screwed up; trumpetduck’s analysis just proves that for the Ducks specifically.

That said, apparently a fix is already available for those with online access. Apparently (this is second-hand to me, I don’t have the game yet :() an EA Sports guy posted on OperationSports that there’s already a quick-fix roster set up online. Go to the EA Locker and download rosters from the following tags:

PS3 – EA_CS
Xbox 360 – EASCncaa10

These should fix the issues.

As for the formations, I’ve looked at the playbook and it has one or two more sets and then the Wild Duck, which always has somebody in motion (apparently the second-string HB with the starter back behind center). Looks like a lot of fun to use.

Man EA is good...

at sucking me dry…geez I can’t believe I drop $60 to pick up some slightly new features and a semi-updated roster every year. I still do it though…

Rec this

Lets rec this statement so it will stay around for awhile so we can start a big online dynasty.

I'd be down for an online dynasty

But I need to get the wireless adapter, and need to re set up my xbox live

What is awesome about this game is the new season showdown. They play the season out like regular, and fans from all teams play each other online the week leading up to the game.

For example, the week before the Civil War, Ducks and Beavs can log on to xbox live and clash with each other. They keep track of the standings for all games and rank the teams accordingly. Should be really fun.

I support Takimoto in his effort to support Roger Kieschnick in his quest to becoming the best Kieschnick ever to play professional baseball.
