Add your wishlist features, game modes, abilities, etc. you'd like to see on NCAA 26 and future releases. I'll start.
1. For those of us with old eyes, I'd like a coach vision or QB ability to help tag defensive player position/personnel pre-snap. Eg. more easily see where LBs & SS is matched up on a slot or WR. Maybe just enhance the "matchup" feature with more detail over each player like position, composure, etc. in one view. The top tier QB field general ability could quickly flash up formation, coverage shell, and blitzers as you come up to the line, and then dynamically highlight your highest % first read, something like "god view" augmented reality VR glasses. Make it a step above Platinum and worth 14 points.
2. Enhance the overall AI driven features of the game to help improve your play, like real time coaching:
- I never use it personally unless the game is out of hand and want to try something I don't usually run, but better "coaching suggestions" plays that are dynamically geared to what your opponent is taking away and leaving open. Eg. screens and man beaters with 2 TE set check release routes if your opponent is spamming a meta blitz. Vice versa when you're on D.
- Use the halftime break to provide some level of AI coaching for a minute or two. Quick highlight of which of your opponents players is killing you so you can focus on shutting them down in the 2H. Same thing for timeouts. Provide critical info and suggestions on adjustments like a coach would on the sidelines with a tablet.
- Use the above to enhance Practice mode so it's not just running plays and resetting. Create a "QB school" practice mode that focuses on progressions. Speed things up and slow things down, like the same VR system Jaden Daniels used in real life.
3. Custom Favorites menus in the play calling screen so you can group your favorite plays and get to them quickly based on what your opponent is doing, eg. "Man Beaters", "Cover 3 beaters", etc.
