    Man you describing Road to Glory got me hyped up for it. A little bummed about the high school part being cut, but you do give a good point about now being able to select what your star level is when entering into the season. I remember pretty much always entering in as a 5-star recruit except the one time I decided to play bad and still entered as a 4 star. Also I definitely like the wear & tear system, it brings in a whole new system to this game (maybe even Madden too) that we've never seen and brings in a new aspect that we have to deal with.

    I'm super glad to hear that the recruiting system they're going with isn't just the one from 14. I know content creators like how fast just slapping some points into a bar and moving on is, but when I played NCAA in the past I really enjoyed being able to out manuever some schools that were larger or more prestigious than mine to snag some recruits just because I worked harder than they did. It really made you feel like recruiting mattered, rather than just being a strictly numbers game where the recruiting upgrades to increase your income were basically all that mattered and if the big guys wanted to outspend you they could and there was no chance of fighting back.
    If they end up confirming you can play a D-lineman in RTG mode, they'll have hit 100% of my wishlist for the game.

If you only wanted to have fun you could just play one of the older games right, the ones you already know you liked... this ncaa is not bringing anything new to the table, all it is doing is bringing back some legacy features and duct taping it to the madden game. You may not be a "sim head" but that doesnt change ea marketing madden/ncaa as simulation football despite the fact that they literally cant simulate football. Players should occasionally miss blocks, but they shouldnt just stand there frozen in time because the engine cant find and execute the correct missed block animation fast enough...

    Considering that at maximum you're only playing 4 years in college. I think a slightly more fleshed out 4 year high school experience would be cool.

    I'm a big fan of MyCareer/RTG type modes. I like putting myself on the field, maybe I'm a narcissist lmao, but anyways being able to virtually put myself through the experience of whatever game it is I'm playing is a major point of emphasis to me. RTG not having high school sucks, but I will say that I usually don't end up playing every high school game in NCAA 14. I will sim to the playoffs and that's about it for me. Sometimes I just sim all the way through because I want to be terrible and be forced to grind up the roster lol. But not having the choice to just sim it sucks. Imo, with every sports game, removing a feature or neglecting to add a feature that the majority of people won't use is lazy. That minority that do want it now don't even have the option. Having a full bill of customization in offline sports games is a massive thing for me. High school in RTG should be a choice, that's why I think NCAA 14 has the best RTG in the series. Yeah, I usually don't play high school games, but sometimes I want to, or with Madden career modes (and 2K this year for some reason) I want to be in the draft. I don't want to choose my team. But some people do, so make it a choice.
    Basically, any feature that someone might like or might not like in a sports game should still be added, just let me choose if I want to use it. It's better to have the burden of choice than to not have anything at all. No such thing as too many features.
