I think EA got all of the returning starters right for once. At first glance the only modifications are cosmetic

RT 74 Mewhort - LT
LT 78 Norwell - LG
RG 71 Linsley - OC
LG 79 Hall .. - RG
LT 77 Fragel? - RT

Or these two transfers

OC 51 Bobek - change to ____
LE 91 Fellows - change to __

It's impossible to guess who the lower ranked guys are without eligibility and measurables.

"Transfer failed" errors single-handedly ruined the Online Dynasty mode in NCAA Football 12.

An online dynasty I participated in died in the middle of our second season because the commissioner could not advance the league without getting an error message. Even the online league I ran eventually got stuck in a bowl week and was blocked from advancing by an unremitting "transfer failed" error.

EA Tiburon could not diagnose these errors properly, and as a result, the company was unable solve them for NCAA Football 12.

The development team claims to have corrected last year's Online Dynasty issues for NCAA Football 13.

Additionally, should any future bugs occur, EA Tiburon has added an "incident identification number," which will tell the developers the exact nature of any errors that are occur in-game.

Knowing exactly what's going wrong should allow the NCAA Football team to produce quicker fixes to any future problems that arise.

I finally downloaded the demo and played it. Overall feels almost exactly as last year's game. Yea the defenders play "line of sight" better (which makes the passing game even easier) and the LBs don't swat every ball over the middle, but aside from that everything seemed nearly identical.

Maybe it's just me, but they really should do more to make this game feel different (new/fresh) each year, you know like EA cares about the product. It seems like they rehash the main menu, tweak dynasties rules/recruiting a little bit (yet it's almost exactly the same) and then do a minor tweak to how the game plays. The playbooks and calling menus are exactly the same, the flow is the same as last year, almost exact same commentary, most the animations are identical, and the game will be terribly bugged upon launch - despite annual claims that it the launch will be smoother. the month following launch will be constant tweaks to the User/AI settings, roster fixes, and bitching about poor EA product support and customer service.

God I wish some other developer would challenge EA on the NCAA series.

Pretty much exactly what will happen. Hopefully we don't have as many Online Dynasty bugs this year.

TeamBuilder barely updated, what a shock :roll2:
TeamBuilder will have new high school stadiums and uniforms, but there's not an overhaul of the feature this year.

I just reconfirmed that you can still import your previous year.

https://twitter.com/JDewiel/status/217653911862001664

yea, still 12 teams like last year. No gameface integration this year.

Meanwhile they pour their hearts into useless gimmicks like "reaction time" or season showdown in years past.
