Ok couple of things:
I wish this game so much would let you save in the middle of a game (kind of like NBA 2k12 etc) not having that is annoying.
I cannot find where to change what you guys were talking about so that I run out more clock when trying to run the clock out, any help would be nice
.
I figured out how to get around the lockingup issue I was having it is a bug apparently that a lot of people are experiencing. Link to a discussion of the issue on the official forums.
Basically the best way to avoid the glitch is to play your games before you do your recruiting each week, however if you anything like me you recruit first. If you run into the glitch (when you go to play the game it will freeze in the loading screen after you pick your uniforms etc) If that is happening you can fix it by re-entering your recruiting screens and then going to play the game (what this does is creates another autosave point) for some reason that fixes the bug. I've ran into this quite a bit.
Have we confirmed what we are going to set the difficulty of recruiting and gameplay at? I'm assuming All-American for gameplay, but what about recruiting?
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to get high scores when someone comes to visit the campus? Also what positive or negative effects does that score have, and where can I view that?
This game is addictive and my wife already hates it lol. She doesn't understand why recruiting is fun for me lol

Once you find out a recruits stance on a certain recruiting topic, and if your school is rated high in that category, you would want to focus on that topic during the visit.
Depending on your strengths and his interests, you'll get a grade on the visit.
Also do what you can and don't schedule during a bye and winning /losing also affects the visit grade.
The grade will affect his overall interest in your school, way more than a simple phone call and even promises

You hit RB (I believe that's it) when on the play calling screen to bring up your adjustments, go to the offensive set of adjustments (if you're not there already) and change Tempo to Conservative.Ok couple of things:

I'm pretty sure recruiting was also set at All-American last year.
Score is based off two factors as far as I can tell. One is how much the recruit likes the three things you select, so obviously you want to go with ones that both interest the recruit (high, very high or most) and your school has a high grade in. The second is how well you do in the actual game on the week the recruit visits. Winning the game in a landslide seems to improve the visit score over barely winning or losing. Never schedule a visit during a bye week.
I haven't actually tried recruiting yet this year, so I have no clue if any of that has changed, but that's how it has been the last few years.

hope you don't mind I did as well. Need me some Dota2 friends.
Yesssssssss, the chosen game
Alright, so assuming the rosters go up tonight here's what's happening:
1. Invites go out tonight.
2. You'll have until tomorrow night at 11 ET to do your initial scouting/recruiting. Do it from the game or on the web, your choice. During this time, I'll work on the HG schedules.
3. I'll advance to start Season 1 after that, and the deadline for Week 1's games will be Saturday, July 21.

How does one do it online? I haven't been able to figure that out yet.
Once the league is up and running, we will have our own page for our dynasty on the EA website. It should be pretty straightforward from there.

So can you do it online in your own offline dynasty?
Offline dynasty, no. You can create a 1 player online dynasty though. It works the exact same way, but you'll have access to the web stuff.

Well why the hell did I do it the other way....would have made these boring summer classes way more interesting....
I think you might be able to save your offline dynasty and move it online. Or is it that you can save an online dynasty and move it offline?
Last year I think they removed the feature to save an online dynasty for offline use. Or they hid it really good because I couldn't find it

You're not the boss of me!
"2. You'll have until tomorrow night at 11 ET to do your initial scouting/recruiting. Do it from the game or on the web, your choice. During this time, I'll work on the HG schedules. "
They actually added a ton of information in the My School section of recruiting, including explanations on what each category means and how to improve it. I recommend checking it out.
Most of my ratings are in the fucking dumps, having a first year coach certainly doesn't help.
AT saved me from posting a "read the thread" post, lol. But yeah, without further ado...
Superior league with superior rosters is officially up and running! All invites have been sent out so get to it! Again here's the plan:
1. Invites go out tonight.

Let's roll!

Coach Cowher has officially come home to his alma mater and will lead the NC State Wolfpack to the promised land! But I really doubt he would have a D Coach Prestige rating to start with....
And holy wow, my job with scheduling just got a lot easier. There's now an option for me to set a target amount of user games for everybody in the scheduling section and the game takes care of it from there! No more slaving for hours on schedules!

You jackasses stole my idea!
Future hall of famer Brian "Weapon X" Dawkins has come out of retirement to coach the Kansas State Wildcats. A Clemson Alum and native to South Carolina, Dawkins was asked why he didn't choose Clemson to make his coaching debut. He responded "Clemson has a great staff and they are doing a great job down there. Kansas State needed someone and they felt like I was the right man for the job." Asked on whether he would take the job at Clemson were the position to become open, he said "I love Clemson and South Carolina is my home, but right now I'm just trying to win a championship for K-State."

BPH, mik, and BabeSlayer are last to sign in. Once they do, we're off and running since I won't be taking long with the schedules anymore.
I'm sure he knows it, but a loss can easily change that...
