2014.

Ncaa always played a better game of football than Madden. My biggest fear is they just slap an NCAA paint job on the madden engine and call it a day.

Madden is such a broken piece of shit game that is a fucking tragedy that EA was allowed to buy the exclusive rights to football.

The NFL 2k series was far better, and it pushed Madden to improve each year.

With no competition in the sports sector anymore, a lot of the sports titles are suffering. I don't even like baseball, but MLB the Show is probably the best franchise out there now.

I didn't have 2014, but I did boot up 2013 and play for several seasons a year or two ago. Been looking forward to this for awhile...even applied to work on it, but I didn't have enough experience with...I don't remember. Something I would have easily learned my first week on the job, I'm sure.

Anyway...I'll definitely be getting this. It may turn into a Madden clone eventually, but I doubt it for this first iteration back into the market. I just hope they keep the emphasis on Dynasty instead of whatever Ultimate Team knockoff they eventually add.

All 128 schools are in. Players who opt in get $600 a piece.

Gonna be awesome when you want to play your schools top 10 QB, oh wait, he didn't opt in for $600? Enjoy a generic QB who has generic stats so they don't run the risk of getting sued.

I have hard time believing EA could get sued over "stats", given that they are all made up. There is no such thing as a 99 long pass accuracy in real life. If you're talking height/weight/etc, then sure. That would obviously change. But every EA sports game has a player editor as well. You can always remake your favorite top 10 QB without EA doing it by default.

Most of them will just be excited to be in the game.

Name a college player not wanting more exposure? I didn't think so.

For 99% of players, I think this is correct. But you think Caleb Williams is letting go of his NIL for just $600 even to EA?

Kind of shitty they just get a 1 time payment of $600 though. They should get a % of revenue (however small) for the lifetime of the game.

It's a yearly thing as long as they are still on the team. So other than a graduate, everyone else should have multiple payments. Not that $2400 is all that exciting but it's better than the nothing that they used to get lol

You think someone that could be a big name one day wants 99% of all the other players to be in a game and not them? They start with building the name/brand early now days. Wouldn't be surprised if money changes hands to get the stats they want put on their name that is obviously pulled out of thin air to begin with.
