I've always wondered why the NCAAF series has never used the actual names for the players. Is there some sort of policy preventing this from happening or what?
Yes there is. If we were to use their exact likeness and name we would owe them money for using their likeness. NCAA players making money would be against NCAA rules. So QB#15 from Florida is not Tim Tebow, its just a big QB who like to run people over :bow:
Also, everyone who has been on the cover of NCAA has done so after declaring for the Draft. Again, they get paid to be on the cover and cant make money while still in college. Thus, i can tell you Tim Tebow will not be on the cover this year.
Remember we will be at Free Speech Alley tomorrow from 11am-4pm. Come by and say hi or get more info about the job. I will be there from 2-4 if you want to come talk to me specifically for some reason. :cool:

We will be out at Free Speech Alley next Monday 1/12 for most of the day 11-4.
We will be out there answering questions and generally just hanging out. If you have questions come by, or swing by and say hi.

since you guys only do testing... where can us gamers send comments about changes we would like to see in the games themselves? Is there someone out there we can send our comments to about the games or a website or anything? there are alot of games that EA makes that we have comments about.. particularly Madden, Tiger Woods, NBA Live, ETC....
you can send us an e-mail at eabatonrougeqa@gmail.com
We will look it over and send what we can to the corresponding teams working on those games. The producers spend a good amount of time in the early stages of development looking at message boards gathering feedback.

I'm very interested in this job, being that I graduate in December and will be staying in BR, but the LSU MBA program I'm joining doesn't begin until the Fall. I'm going to need a full time job until then, and ironically I'm very detail oriented when it comes to games, especially sports games. I usually spend the first couple of hours changing players around to be more accurate when I first get a new game like NCAA. I think I'd be perfect.
Sounds good, submit your resume to www.hiregoodpeople.com and we will give you a call. We will be ramping up our hiring efforts here shortly.
We want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Have fun, be safe, and play some games :cheers:
Correct. You have to boot up RB1 while connected online. At boot you will receive a message stating an update is available, allow the update to install.
Once its done you'll see a menu option that says Export songs. You then have to go through the process of purchasing the license for the songs then exporting the songs. Its very simple and the on screen instructions take you step by step. It should only take about 5 min for you to get it started and about another 10-15 min to download the songs.

Right now all testers must work a minimum of 18 hours per week. We only have 9 hours available per day right now. We are looking to add a 4th shift but that would only give you 12 hours in a day (3 hours shift blocks). If you can meet the min hours we would be interested in reading over your resumes and possibly bringing you and your friend in for an interview.
This also brings up a good point, and a topic we hear a lot. Being the best at a certain game does not necessarily translate into being a good tester. Being a good tester involves more than knowing which plays to run against certain defenses. There is a lot more to a game than gameplay. Knowing things like how long a blank screen can appear, how does MS like their controller referenced, how do you crash the game by pulling the controller while saving, how long can a loading screen take, etc. Those are just some of the simple examples.
I'm not saying someone who is good at the game is not going to make a good tester. There is just much more to testing. Ive seen both sides, some come in and learn to be an all around tester, some come in and play all day and do very poorly. A good tester is someone I can put on NCAA or Littlest Pet shop and they can find bugs in both without any problems.
