The Program: College Football 4+

I’ve had a lot of fun with the game so far a few seasons in. However, I think some improvements could be made to make it better. If you could pick plays during games it would be more interactive and add to the strategy. Or even if you could just make decisions in critical situations like on fourth downs. A lot of times it’ll be like 4th and short at my opponents 40ish yard line and we’ll end up punting with a net gain of 10-20 yards on the punt. I would like the opportunity to choose to go for it or even in a fourth and short to go for it instead of kicking a field goal. If this is not a possible addition I would suggest an option to do a quick sim of the game. There may be one that I missed but I have not seen one so far. If I'm losing or winning by 40 I don’t want to spend an extra minute or two of my time watching the rest of the game. Also any aspects that make the game more interactive and personal would be cool. Such as having random events involving players or anything to make the players feel more real. Like if a player has a high work ethic they could have a chance of gaining a higher potential during the season or during training. Or if a player has been a backup for an extended period of time and they threaten to transfer the upcoming season if they don’t receive playing time.

Overall, I like the game but any sort of additions to make it better and more personal is something I would enjoy and even pay a little for. Thanks!

This is a really great college football simulation, even in these early stages I’m impressed. I expected to download this and move on per usual but I’m hooked on a good way, you really don’t have to spend real money but I did after my 3rd season to support the game’s future. This is the closet thing to the last EA NCAA game way back when, salute to the developers. There are things to work out, like sim stats, player of the year had over 4000 RUSHING yards and 30 TDs before the season ended that’s pretty wild. The recruiting should show player stats before deciding to recruit them, and the games should have a option to just sim them immediately please.. if they already do I’m just not seeing this option but it would help seasons go faster. This is a really in-depth sim with great attention to detail, I get around my hometown and down to the smallest town are listed in recruits which is a cool small detail. It’s definitely a grind! Which isn’t a bad thing in building a school, I finally had a winning record with only two loses in my 3rd season but am still only the lowest prestige so this is a long haul game which I’m ok with. With future updates this will be one of the best simulations in the store, this is honestly rivaling a sim franchise leave in madden 23…. It’s Avesta time killer and fun. Can’t wait for future updates, I’ll definitely w giving my feed back for the future please keep this going and thank you.

This is such an amazing game, both in functionality and visualization. I get lost in the game for hours at a time. Its not too hard but not too easy easy either, there is a clear progression up through conferences. I know the game is also under constant development and I am excited to see what the developers come up with. Some things I would like to see added are an offseason transfer portal (allows you to fill missing holes in recruiting class and adds challenge when some of your own players transfer, and is also more realistic) and more options for trainers and scouts, as well as being able to select your starting point on the scouting map. Sometimes you start nowhere near any positions you need and it can be tough to fill all the holes, even with a plane ticket. I would also like to see players that you recruit in later weeks have higher starting interest. If you want to recruit a player in week 8, you either have to spend hundreds of points on personal visits or take a 40%ish risk at commitment. This also ties in to the map problem because if you start in a bad location it can take several weeks to get to positions you want, which makes it too expensive to get a full recruiting class and you end up with walk-ons. But overall love the game and still giving it five-stars
