Online Dynasty, Seahawks Alternates Slip Out?

As noticed in the video revealing online co-op in Madden 10 last night lead designer Ian Cummings makes reference to Online Franchise. Obviously most are now expecting that Online Franchise is the big announcement coming on Monday. It does seem likely, though I remain somewhat hesitant to jump right in to that assumption and get my hopes up too high.

Given that EA isn’t going to clarify anything to do with online co-op until Monday that makes me believe that the two are tied together in some fashion. It could be that (as I guessed weeks back) they have a combination of the two. I would hope though that EA wouldn’t use the term Online Franchise unless it was true to the meaning and incorporated all aspects of the mode including the draft and free agency. Basically it has to be to Madden what Online Dynasty is to NCAA. Simply offering the ability to take your franchise games online and play with a teammate would be a pretty big letdown to most after all this build-up. We’ll see how it all plays out on Monday.

Something else interesting that I came across in an ESPN video was the inclusion of an alternate jersey for the Seahawks. Rumor is the team will be introducing a lime green 3rd jersey and wearing it on one or two occasions this year. To date though the jersey in question has not been officially revealed. Despite this in the video where Mark Sanchez is playing with the Jets as Aaron Curry controls the Seahawks the lime green alternates are being used. I’m curious to find out whether these are the official alternates as provided by the NFL or if they were just created based on a mock-up so as to provide the team with an alternate resembling what they might wear this season. (Update) I have confirmed that they did have some form of reference for these.

That's not lime green. That's RAVE GREEN. GO SOUNDERS! I'm glad to see the Seahawks are going to have a similar jersey to their soccer team. I might even get one of those Seahawks jerseys just because it looks like my Sounders jersey. Beautiful sight.

The only thing better than that jersey would be matching pants!!! Seahawks win by blinding the other team during pre-game warm-ups…

You know what I would like to see? I would love it if I could give my individual players their own style. For example: Terrance Newman- Wears Double pair of socks like his favorite X-NFL player Deion Sanders!! I would love to put two pair of socks on my players. Lots of players do it. Clinton Portis, Ken Hamlin, Santana Moss, Deshawn Jackson, etc..

GGGGbrown/seatown

Now thats paying attention to detail I agree with you totally!! you should be able to edit the color part of the sock some playere have a little part of white showing and some players have a lot of white showing see deion sanders but hey I can't complain they finally added towels, every face mask, third team colors for gloves, colored cleats. Now for detail geeks like me just add colored mouth pieces and double socks and I might lose my damn mind !!!!!! aug14 is so far away

If some of guys missed the comment before, it was an April Fools hoax posted on Paul Lukas' Uniwatch blog. Mr. Lukas writes for ESPN, so I think the E.A. guys took Paul's harmless prank on his readers as "gospel".

lime green… really?

The Seahawks need design help. I actually don't think the current dark green is bad, but they wear them in a bad combo. They would look much better with the dark green top/white pants. And then the opposite of that. Why they wear the green-on-green action I'll never know.

I'll never know, either. Probably because they wear blue/blue not green/green. The Seahawks aren't green (minus this new St. Patrick's Day version). Green is the Incredible Hulk. Blue is Batman. We're Batman.

Green is the color of money, 'go' lights, weed, trees, and envy.
Blue is the color of the sky, the Navy, balls (on occasion), and sadness.

I hope I've provided you enough examples between the difference of color.

(FUN FACT: IF YOU TAKE THE COLOR YELLOW AND ADD IN SOME BLUE YOU'LL GET GREEN!)

Yellow and blue doesn't always make green buddy. Do some research 1st. If u mix yellow and blue light you get guess what…….yellow and blue light but your eyes might detect it as white to grey depending on the mixture. Now that is a TRUE FUN FACT! Mr Dobalina
