NCAA BASKETBALL 10 UPDATED ROSTERS?

[brett35]

I posted this in my website forums too but no one is a member in my forums so why bother. I've gotten a few emails and messages on xbox live asking if I do updated NCAA Basketball 10 rosters also. I've been thinking about it and wondering if I should or not.

This what the rosters call for. You can create people in NCAA Basketball you can, but you cannot delete, release, or trade players. See in NBA LIVE with the people who retire I can just release them and they will be in free agency, thats it. You cannot do that in NCAA. But you can edit people, you can edit all there stats, looks, names, everything. The only thing you cannot edit is what year they are, Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, Senior, you cannot edit that at all.

So for example, Jon Scheyer just graduated Duke, Kyrie Irving is going to be a freshman at Duke I would edit Jon Scheyer and make him Kryie Irving, change his looks stats, name everything. But he would be a Senior because you cannot change that. Now is it worth it to do all the rosters even though you cannot change the year. I want to hear your thoughts.

Here are my reasons:

Good:
Updated rosters (what else is better than that?)
Playing with the top 100 recruits
Great for a group of people to play

Bad
Not good for Dynasty mode at all
Leaving Seniors from this past season that I will use as freshmen so there horrible for dynasty mode
Only use for play now mode

Again feel free to respond here, I dont have members in my forums so I posted it here too. Please i want to hear your thoughts on this. This is 300 teams also here remember that.

If there's a demand and you've got the time and enthusiasm, I think people could overlook that issue. After all, there are aspects of the NBA Live 10 rosters we can't modify (notably contract length) but people are still interested in the updates.

well i mean i wouldnt want to edit the nba live stuff anyway with there name and what they look like. ea sports does a really job on what the players look like i wouldnt want to mess with that at all anyway its just the rosters.

ncaa you can edit all that stuff just not the year they are in school.

i dont know if im up for it though nba live updates is a lot. it is a more than 1 person job.

What I meant was that because we can't edit contract length in NBA Live 10 so players being free agents when they shouldn't be is something we just have to live with. I'm sure people would understand the similar limitations for NCAA Basketball updates.

However, I certainly understand what you mean about it being a time consuming job, since I'm currently maintaining roster updates for the PC versions of four NBA Live games. If you feel you don't have the time then that's more than fair. But if you did want to give it a shot then good luck, I'd certainly be happy to help out in terms of promoting them on the main page or whatnot.

I'd probably say no since EA dropped the ball by not allowing such basic editing abilities. I suggest getting College Hoops 2k8, downloading up-to-date current year rosters off 2k Share and working from there. Might not be the ideal response, but there is a community over at OS that works on them year in & year out.

Either way, good luck with your project

I'm going to think about it for a few days, I'm on vacation this week thats why my roster updates on live 10 have been a little slow but im getting them done, and also thats why i havent updated my dynasty story either. but i am very interested in it cause i would like to play with the top 100 recruits.
