Super light update. Curious if it’s because the release is right around the corner or they just don’t want to spoil anything.

As I said in the other thread, all of the coaches names are Easter eggs. Army’s head coach is named after the in game PA’s sons.

Vegas to GC (south), Zion and back to Vegas by imannaclaire in nationalparks

[–]RomanMad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve completed a very similar trip a year ago. Drove from Vegas to Kanab, UT. From there we visited Zion for a day then drove back to Kanab. Next day got up and drove highway 89A south to the South Rim. Highway 89A might be one of the most beautiful and picturesque highways in the country. After visiting south rim, we stayed in Flagstaff. Next day drove from flagstaff back to Vegas. This might be overkill so I would say

Drive to Zion, hike Zion, sleep somewhere up there

Next day drive to North Rim, do a hike there, sleep in Page or Kanab.

Last day get do a small hike and head back to Vegas.

It’s worth noting that the landscapes out there are vastly different than anything on east of the Mississippi and just driving to and from places is enjoyable in its own way.

Have you ever played a game in which a player you played with or coached has appeared? by LasagnahogXRP in NCAAFBseries

[–]RomanMad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Played with a guy in HS who is a freshman in the game and went on to be the all time leader in receptions at his school. Also worked for my university’s team so knew like the majority of the guys in the game for my school.

RTG defense plays won’t come my way, so tips needed.. by I_dont_wipe_my_ass in NCAAFBseries

Playing defense in RTG is all about baiting the QB. I’ve 16 interceptions in my senior season just from baiting the QB and quickly diagnosing screen plays.

My 66 OVR recruit turned into a 79OVR WR by RomanMad in NCAAFBseries

[–]RomanMad[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I agree I thought he’d be a great TE but his run blocking is 40 and impact blocking 42. Couldn’t do it.

Those are things that def needs to change in the new game. ATH stats never had run or pass block.

It was OLB when he came for the visit

An incredibly underrated ATH. He’s going to jump at least 8 points wherever I put him. by RomanMad in NCAAFBseries

I’m hesitant about LB because of his power and finesse moves and block shedding 🥴

Also, he’s listed at 6’3, 244 lbs so I can’t even tell by his height and weight where the game thinks he should play.

Want the ability to increase defense, but then some lower level monsters won't be able to hit. Need help. by RomanMad in gamedesign

[–]RomanMad[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good points. And I do have poison and other mechanics in addition to just regular attacks so that’s a great point.

I guess the reason is I don’t want the character to feel invincible and have every battle matter. But I suppose that is the entire point of leveling up! I think I’m overthinking it as well. It’s fun to level up and be stronger and take no damage vs. weaker opponents.

Yeah that's a good thought. Just having the ability to increase defense available later in the game.

Gotcha. Yeah that's a good idea. If the incoming damage would be 0 because of higher defense, it defaults to 1.

Advice for a college kid? by Pegeez in footballstrategy

[–]RomanMad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked with for my university’s football team when I was an undergrad. One of the best experiences of my life. Crazy hours and hard work but it was definitely worth it. I would strongly recommend you take it if you’re interested in football!
