NCAA Football 10 Features List Confirms CAS
by 
Over at ncaaStrategies they’ve come across the placeholder box for NCAA Football 10 that is being put on display by Gamestop. The box lists out a few of the features of the game. While some of them have already been discussed there are a couple that as of yet had not. You can check out the details and view a picture of the box over at ncaaStrategies by clicking here.
The one that will likely get the most attention is the return of Create-A-School. Its inclusion has been speculated upon however had not been confirmed until now. Also mentioned are risk-reward game planning and innovative new defensive controls.
The descriptions remain a little vague as they were obviously drawn up prior to posting any of their blogs. We already know that Erin Andrews is the new addition to the broadcasting team for example. So what this means is Teambuilder mode may still be what incorporates the create-a-school aspect. Considering it is described as “revolutionary” it appears there will be a lot more to learn about the mode than just that. After getting through the cover announcements tomorrow additional info on the game is expected to come out of the NCAA event I’ll be attending in NY this Thursday.

I can't wait for this game to come out now, and I can't wait for my dynasty with my buddies from school now. With CAS confirmed now and the ability to customize conferences this game will be a lot of fun. The next thing I want to know about is if they have improved Campus Legend, which I guess is Road to Glory or something like that. Pasta is there any chance the EA guys will let you have a crack at the CAS feature or Road to Glory mode?

so teambuilding is a create-a school-mode….

I'm not sure what I'll be seeing of NCAA and Madden on Thursday quite yet, and how much hands-on time I'll have. I should find out more before then on what to expect.

I think an absolutely awesome feature would be create-a-school and be able to take your team online and play with it.
You can create an "A" team, B+ team, B team…. and so on. Each level gives you less player attribute points, but you can still choose to distribute your points how you choose.
So if you believe the future of football is speed, speed and more speed. Then build you team that way and see how it performs with sacrificing in other areas.

What is with those hideous arms identical to every player in eyesight? Elephantitis is in the game
April 22, 2009 at 12:12 am
LoL at some EAbot giving the guy pointing out how atrocious and identical players arms look at a thumbs down

Beware of the University of Alaska Penguins!!!
I think this mode is what ultimately got me hooked on video games. Now all they need to do is add to the mode in a couple years so that we can build/renovate our stadiums.
…somebody will find a way to whine and complain about this feature, just give it time.

I can't overcome endless repetition and conditioning: every time EA uses the word "revolutionary," I roll my eyes.
April 20, 2009 at 4:16 am
Yeah, I felt the same way. Not that I wasn't excited to hear about these features but I wish they would just stop using that term all together.
April 20, 2009 at 4:28 am
I guess the fine folks at EA love the sound of the word as it rolls off the tongue R-E-V-O-L-U-T-I-O-N-A-R-Y. LMAO my assumption is they think we are pretty much morons who who believe that an orange thrown high enought in the air is a new sun.

Create -A- School is a nice addition but other than that what have they really added? NCAA doesn't need anymore modes or features it needs to improve Presentation & Gameplay. Here we go again, EA adding stuff that we've already had in the game years ago & promoting it as "new". I mean I'm all for adding modes & features once the gameplay & presentation has been solidified but it sounds like this is just another example of EA not having their priorities in order.

Create a school???? How about they just add FCS Schools!
April 20, 2009 at 12:51 pm
well i mean that would be easier, but at least we can create them now damit! lol

i'm thinking the TeamBuilder mode will be similar to the Campus Legend mode…
picture this…you have a small university that just made the jump from Division III school…looking to move up to DII, then DI-AA and finally I-A (i know they aren't called that anymore…but old habits die hard)…your goal is to build up your teams fanbase…improve your stadium…secure funds for top coaches, equipment, and facilities…start out in a small conference in a lower division and work your way up to a BCS conference…of course you would be in charge of everything from the uniforms to the logos to the team advertising and possibly fight song…the ultimate goal will be to build a team that regularly competes for national championships, but you would have to build a strong base before you can reach the pinnacle of the sport…
could have aspects of NFL Head Coach and such included…though in the end i would come down to simply winning your games to advance your school…which may or may not separate it much from the Dynasty mode…though this just seems something like what EA would do…

that would be cool
April 20, 2009 at 11:19 pm
That sounds more like MLB: The Show's developers, not EA
April 20, 2009 at 9:09 am
All I need is in game saves! The rest is gravy.
April 20, 2009 at 4:53 am
I just cant wait to see who is announced for the covers today.
April 20, 2009 at 1:22 pm
yeah should be interesting
April 20, 2009 at 1:14 pm

April 20, 2009 at 1:47 pm
I want to read more in regards to the adaptive AI and if it works….Also, the risk-reward for game planning sounds interesting…
April 20, 2009 at 1:59 pm
Ok all these features are nice and all, but where is the tweaks to gameplay? It seems like 10' is missing one big feature that would make this game great. I keep waiting for them to announce something good, and get nothing.
Also, i always like to edit my players to make them look the way they do in real life. Can we get some new helmets/facemasks, eyeblack, towels, MOUTHPIECES, etc…
April 20, 2009 at 2:42 pm
Pasta-
Please, for the love of god, fidn out if Bowl Patches are back in the game (or is that the "revolutionary" feature for NCAA 2011??)
Also, any eyeblack in this or Madden? After the Show 09, it's going to be really hard to get into these half baked EA games.
April 20, 2009 at 3:30 pm
Man,i cant wait to play this game..
April 20, 2009 at 6:34 pm
this is um gay, u want spectator mode!!! this isnt revolutionary
April 20, 2009 at 8:28 pm
wow
April 21, 2009 at 3:58 am
what in the world is "spectator mode" and why is it so important?
April 21, 2009 at 2:17 pm
I agree: my brother and I play this game a LOT as an online dynasty and several times, one of us is finished with a game while the other plays. It would be great to join his game and watch it as he plays. (Some FPS have this mode.)
