Everyone's right, the thing that needs to be changed is players not taking lay-ups or dunking the ball when they are right under the basket. Now I'm able to shoot lay-ups or dunk the ball off of the fast break, but the thing that drives me insane is when my post is under the basket and he fades away! There's no post that's going to do that and make the shot... personally, I could care less if they create a separate dunk/lay-up button, just as long as when players are near the basket that they don't fade away. That's all we ask.
There is no need for a pro hop button. If you want the pro hop then buy March Madness. I would really like to see a little more realisticness in the game. As said before, there needs to be suspensions and players that don't make the grade. It would add to the game.
And is it possible to have the actual coaches in the game or is there some kind of copyright thing with that? I would like to see them give a reason in a legacy to why the AD's offering me a job. And I mean, "we fired our coach," "our coach left,"... you get the point.
I would also like to see some improvements with creating a school. improvement the first is that I would like to be able to put something above the number on the front of the jersey that somewhat resembles the name of the school or the nickname. just having a number on the front looks incredibly stupid and makes no sense. and maybe there could be something where there are different number styles. this is nothing important, just a personal issue. the first problem (team name) definitely needs to be fixed. issue the second is that my created team should have a tough road. this means that when they are created that they should automatically be placed into the Independent "conference." if you want to argue about that, there are couple of independent teams that aren't in the game, so instead of replacing a team that's already in a conference, my team should have to be invited to join that conference. that would make it more of a challenge to someone and very intriguing (pardon the spelling). issue the third is please lose the things that adjust the color and put samples of color in the game. I can't really explain this, but put something in the game like there is with the AOL messenger that allows you to choose a color. that way there are different shades of blue and stuff. it's too weird trying to adjust everything in the game, as far as color goes, when I am creating a school, I can't always make it perfect and it frustrates me.
something else that I would like to see is schools succeeding year in and out. every time I get to about year three, Michigan State is at the bottom of the Big Ten. there is no chance of this happening in real life. I don't care how good the Big 10 gets, MSU will always be in the upper half.
I can't overemphasize the thing about players not making the grade and players leaving for reasons. players should get kicked off the team. players should act up and stuff. why can this happen in real life and not in a video game? if you want to make your game realistic, put this in and it will take care of a lot of the problem (that and having the players dunk/lay it in when they are close to the basket). all us fans want is a game that's close to reality.
something else that I would like to bring up is that I don't like having all of my recruits being left-handed. there is an easy solution to this; have something on their "player card" that says that they are left-handed.
this brings me to my newest complaints about recruiting. my big issue is about the player cards. when I am going to recruit a player, I should be able to see his player card (although I would prefer to see a stat sheet) before I decide if I want to recruit him or not. I don't like going to recruit a kid and then seeing that he wants to stay close to home when I am a school on the other side of the country. there needs to be more stuff on the player card. how about putting the kid's points per game and boards per game? and his vertical jump? and then it would be nice to have a coach's comment and how much potential the coach thinks the kid has. we hear about all of these success stories in college basketball, so just make them in the game too. and let's put the kid's grades in the game! the game needs partial qualifiers and kids that are not eligible. it would make the game more realistic. isn't that what we want?
and for the love of God, let's have realistic lay-ups!!! (that means no 360’s…)
the game is almost perfect, now take the steps to make it perfect. it could be the first perfect sports video game ever.
