I can understand the appeal of Ultimate Team in Madden since pro players are recognizable but I didn't play the last NCAA game and I heard it had a ultimate team mode, how did it Work?

If the full reveal is ready for tomorrow, that means it was ready for today… and all they did today was allow people to pay for the game before they showed you anything of relevance.
Who cares? If you are that concerned about it, then don't pre order it until you see the full reveal tomorrow. Unless I'm mistaken, they never promised a full reveal today.

I think the general idea of it all is good - take a fantasy team of today’s greats and the legends of the past and play through different challenges and competitions and such. The execution of it is arse though. But it’s a feature that is present in a lot of games and it’s just not really my cup of tea. If the gameplay were better I’d probably engage more with it despite the meh execution but the meh gameplay doesn’t give me an incentive to try it.
I agree with all of this. But one great thing about the Ultimate Team BS is no one is forcing anyone to participate. For me, I’m just excited about something that I can pick up and play for an hour or two in an early weekend morning. I work crazy early hours during the week so that has me getting up by myself at sunrise on the weekends usually.
Gritz is coming off as someone looking for a game to sink 30 hours a week into. If that was me, then I would probably be on his side with this game. But that isn’t me…..I’m just excited to have a CFB game coming out where Ole Miss is finally a program with some level of success and prestige(compared to the old NCAA games where we had fricking Nutt and Orgeron).
I haven’t been to an ole Miss home game since Bama ‘14(hell of a game to be the last one

That being said……if the rumors are true about then not supporting PC, then frick me right in the eye.

I think you're spot on with this. At the end of the day, we'll probably have to accept that the gameplay isn't going to vary that much from Madden. If they thought they could improve one, they would do it for the other as well.
I'm more interested in how the in-game feature and game modes will operate. How are they going to handle the transfer portal and NIL? Since they can now have actual players & teams, how often will they update stats for individual players & teams during the season? Weekly or monthly? For example, it would be very disappointing if you were watching a player turn into a Heisman Trophy candidate in real time, but that wasn't reflected in the game. Those are the things that I will really care about.

I don’t think it did. I didn’t play ‘14, my last year was ‘13 and it wasn’t on there.
They use to have legendary rosters on the game which were basically the national champions for each year and another famous team or two.

Ok just looked up how Ultimate Team worked in the last NCAA game and it used former players and different version of them from like a freshman version or a senior version. I'm not a fan of Madden ultimate team but I have to admit if I can collect a team of LSU legends that sounds pretty cool lol.
Also I see on the consoles stores that if you have EA play you get 10% off that's not a bad deal because you can get a month of EA play for $6 and it has Stars wars Jedi survivor on the service now.

I think EA play is also included in Game Pass Ultimate.

NCAA 14 had Ultimate Team. It worked in the same manner that Madden Ultimate Team works, a mix of current players and legends. They had challenges you could play, H2H, Auction House, and Trades.

I don’t know. I would prefer the ability to either turn off the attribute update or only have it take affect when you start a new season. I would get pretty annoyed if I spent a ton of practice time developing a player only for him to keep getting nerfed because he’s underperforming IRL.

Looks like no PC release. Disappointing but not totally surprising.

It may be a down the road kind of thing. They haven’t said it will be on PC but they haven’t confirmed it won’t be either (to my knowledge)

Ratings changes don’t affect your in dynasty rosters, only the official rosters which are used for online play.
