another year, another half baked roll out - Teambuilder
Please for the love of football, fix the team builder experience! How can you add in the ability for us to create custom rosters, pipelines etc... for team builder... and then utterly fail to imagine that we might.... I don't know.... maybe want to use the team builder team and its accompanying rosters and other details.... in DYNASTY? Seriously? For the casual reader, these out of the box elements do not import with the created team. Instead it adopts the stats of the school you take over. Ex. You want to bring a new school into the Mountain West and so you choose to bump Utah State (a school nobody will miss). Your carefully created Teambuilder team has many of you famous alum, and stats from your created DII school. The Teambuilder import brings in the names but none of the stats, skills, traits you spent time adjusting to mimic your imagined roster. Also your pipelines don't come either. Last year they (EA) pooped the bed by not having Teambuilder ready for launch and then charging extra in the form of an online pass just to use a basic feature of the game... this year... they find another creative way to pop you in the backside by failing to de-bug the importing into Dynasty mode. How much do you want to bet that they are considering a micro-transaction fix to get your team correctly imported for you to play? Frustrating. EA... here is the situation .... in sports terminology... so maybe you'll get it... after a decade +1 year, you are down on the count 0-2. You might not get a 3rd pitch if you don't fix this problem asap. Sincerely, One of the many.
Upload Teams
I have tried to submit teams that I have created and nothing happens. This is complete and utter [Edit - CM] and start thinking about the people that give you the money to make your stuff work I have tried everything that I can think of and everybody's little well. You need to do this. Nothing is working. All I want to do is put my teams that I create into my **bleep** dynasty. This is not right!!!

I’m Florida in an online dynasty and this is ridiculous. No way should I be able to land HALF of all the 5 stars. Especially should not be able to land THREE 5 star QBs in the same class. The deep dive said they were aiming for not needing house rules, but now we have some for CFB 26.
Dynasty Sack/TFL bug
There is a major issue in the current game, that i have noticed since launch. And have tried to tell as many streamers or devs as possible. But it has never been fixed. When playing games in dynasty, every time you get a sack on the QB, you are awarded a sack and a TFL. And in all cpu v cpu games simmed week to week, the sacks in those games do NOT count as a TFL. So you end up having players winning awards all the time, based on the fact they are now earning a TFL for each sack. Making the recruiting process so much easier. If you have a good pass rush, you end up getting so many players interested because your TFL numbers skyrocket. And the CPU can not keep up with you, as they are only gaining the sack and not the bonus TFL. I hope this is fixed in CFB26 but i doubt it as they have not done anything about it yet. Please if someone knows how to get this info to the CFB26 team.NCAA 26 beta
Users need to be able to see all recruiting stats instead of a select few. Would like to have a better juke combination selection or bring back 2014 double move. There is no way to find out how to view a stat for a long snapper. Off-season practice mode would be nice and players is not in full pads, but just practice jerseys and shorts like the old NCAA and Madden. Archetypes are not fully explained. Still not able to use or catch with a receiver once the ball is tipped. Not honoring your season goals should have more severe repercussions possible fired. Recruiting should add another recruiting tool, besides direct messages, family, and friends in the house. Add an additional section labeled NIL money that could persuade a recruit to commit to your school. Total the recruiting points at a maximum of 100 points when all recruiter development traits have been maximize. program builder in the coaching abilities, should allow coaches to spend points to increase teams, facilities, locker rooms, and travel arrangements to boost recruiting.Audible can’t change formations with same personnel
Something happened recently to where now audibles only show up for current formation and do not allow you to change formations and pick different audibles in game. You only are able to select the 4 regardless of whether there’s other formations with the same personnel groupings.I won’t buy 26 unless
We all know this game is flawed from the coaching carousel to the massive amount of patches to the fact that instead of making a game full of immersion for dynasty players off-line that is, I don’t know about online. I don’t play online, but the Sim logic is off. The coaching carousel is broken. Everybody complained about the recruiting being being off. I think it’s worse now than what it was before when the top programs year after year are just ridiculously signing 35 players at a time what’s the point they can’t use them no school ever over recruits can’t change coaching pipelines like you used to they for some reason stop that TeamBuilder is broken. You can’t play off-line team builder penalties are hit and miss. We all know the top 25 logic is busted. We all know the CFP logic is busted when you’ve got six schools from one conference making the college football playoff. This is ridiculous so you have to bend the rules to get there to wear theirs and even amount of different conferences in it 2014 as flood as it was the coaching carousel was better I like the way that you can go in you don’t have to search for your stats or your records. They’re all out there out front. The layout for finding school records is there and you don’t have to go searching for it or trying to find out What some of that stuff when you’re reading it in my school it makes absolutely no sense when the other, the other game showed you your your school and showed you what conference you were in and if you had a conference championship, it put the years on it that said you won The trophy room the ESPN Classics. There was just parts of this game that was of 2014 that was so much better than what they got now it feels to me like they did barely enough to get it out the door and then oops start making patches. Give us the ability to edit coaches You can in 2014. You can edit every coach deleting and starting them at level one I miss Lee Corso telling me who he thinks is going to win the game bring that back I for one don’t care about NIL players. They’re only there for four years and they’re gone and then you’ve got a game you can do absolutely nothing with if you’re playing dynasty so until they decide to fix a lot of of the issues that were on this game, I will not be buying the next one unless they fix it.Free Practice not working in one Dynasty save – server error on PS5
In one of my Dynasty saves in College Football 25 on PS5, Free Practice will not load. Every time I try to access it, I get this message: “Our servers cannot process your request at this time. Please try again later.” Then I’m returned to the main menu. I tested an older Dynasty save I hadn’t played in a while, and Free Practice worked fine there. When I returned to my main Dynasty, the issue was still happening — even after advancing the week. Things I tried: Restarted PS5 and game Verified EA account is linked Loaded older Dynasty (Free Practice worked fine) Advanced week in current Dynasty (didn’t help) Saved under a new file name (didn’t help) This seems to be a bug tied to that specific save file. I’ve attached a screenshot of the error screen.Error “our servers cannot process your request at this time”
In an online dynasty with 12 other guys. I am having issues when I try to begin any gameplay whether a real game or practice. I’ve saved a clip in my media files but basically any time I try to ready up for a game or practice in my online dynasty I get the following error - “our servers cannot process your request at this time. Please try again later. We apologize for any inconvenience. You have been returned to the Main Menu”. This has occurred since 10:00am CST 4/30. I have tried to restart my PlayStation5, modem and router, redownloaded the game and made sure the updates were current. I would consider ending the dynasty or restarting but since it is online with other users I do not have that option. All other gameplays work in college football 25. None of the other players in my league are experiencing this issue.Coaching Tree and Carousel Wish List for CFB 26 Dynasty Mode
Another wish list this time talking about Dynasty Mode's Coaching Trees and Carousel. Coaching Trees Real Coaches in the Game I think we all agree that real coaches would be a great addition to the game. I think this is already happening so that's even better! Starting Level and Level Cap I like the level cap honestly, but maybe raise it to 100 instead of 50. Even at 100, you would not be able to max out all of the skill trees, but it would allow you to actually have more points invested into CEO and Program Builder. Right now, if you want those, there are a ton of points to use to even unlock them after grinding to achieve the requirements. If EA would allow us to either start with more points or choose what level to start with that would be a nice add, but it's definitely not important. Grinding is part of the fun! Coaching Tree in General The CPU generated coaches pick and choose which tier of a tree they allocate their points too. I have seen a few CPU coaches with a tier 3 unlocked without unlocking tiers 1 or 2. If the CPU can do it, then we should be able to as well. During the offseason, allow us to view the details of the coaching tree instead of only seeing the Spider Chart of the Tree. This is important for building a staff as a head coach. I mentioned in a few times in other wishlists, but not being able to see the details of the tree can be detrimental to building a staff, especially when hiring former HCs as a Coordinator. Starting Trees General I like the spend 50 requirement to unlock the next level. This is really easy to do Recruiter Hands down, this is the most popular tree by far. Almost everyone chooses this as their default tree when starting a dynasty. I can't think of anything to change or add with this one. I wouldn't max out these tiers and would probably stop after tier 3 until I got everything else I wanted. Elite Recruiter - 2 top 5 classes I don't care too much for the elite recruiter, at least on my coach. I might go for coordinators with this though. Tactician Id say this is the second most popular tree of the three starters. I choose this one as my starting point when doing a coordinator dynasty run. All 4 Tiers for each position (besides K/P) are worth it Scheme Guru - Win 10 top 25 games Similar to recruiting, I don't care for the scheme guru tree as much either. They are expensive and don't seem to be as effective as some of the other boosts. Motivator I almost never choose this one as my starting tree but will eventually unlock it a few years into my dynasties. The recruiter and tactician trees are more instant, but this one takes time to grind through. It's almost not worth it right off the bat. The best abilities are all in the Tier 3 - Put in Work to get an off-season training boost. Master Motivator - Have 5 players drafted This is solid and, once again, the Tier 3 abilities are the best. This is the best to gain additional XP for your team. Advanced Trees Architect - Win 4 Rivalry Games and spend 25 in Motivator and Tactician This is one I have honestly not used but I am planning on unlocking it in my next build. The Tier 1 and 2 abilities are solid! Once your team is pretty dominant, Tier 3 would be great as well. I don't see the point in getting into Tier 4 Strategist - Win 4 Bowl Game and spend 25 in Recruiter and Tactician I agree with most of the popular threads that this tree is pointless. I would think about using this tree if one of the tiers was actually increasing the number of visits or adding more recruiting hours to your total. Maybe not adding recruiting hours, but what about recruiting hour discounts for positions?Send the house is 50 hours, but what if strategist gave you a discounted rate (10-20%) for recruiting actions? So instead of 5 for Send the house maybe it's 40 or 45 hours? Talent Developer - Have 2 players drafted and spend 25 in Recruiter and Motivator Again, this is another tree I have not really tried out. I didn't see the point in using points for the Tier 1 or 2 abilities to get to Tier 3. In my opinion, the transfer portal needs a complete overhaul for this tree to be worth unlocking. If anything the Position Whisperer and Star Maker Tiers should be the 1 and 2 Tier instead of the 3 and 4. Head Coach Exclusive Trees I like the grind it takes to unlock these trees, but that being said, for the amount of grinding, these trees are pretty mid at best Program Builder Unlocks after winning 5 playoff games Of the 7 Abilities only one of these seems like it's worth anything and that's relationship builder. Most of the other abilities seem irrelevant if we are good enough to unlock this tree. CEO Unlocks after winning 2 natties and Spend 100 in any tree Like Program Builder, there is only 1 Ability worth unlocking and that is Senior Superlatives For the amount of points and other requirements needed to unlock these two trees, I don't think it's worth getting these for 2 abilities too be honest. These exclusive and difficult trees should be more inclining to grind to unlock. I'd prefer to keep working on the other tree and get better at those sets. Final Thoughts on trees I love the depth that these trees bring to the game, but overall, the Starting Trees and Advanced trees seems more worth it than the CEO and Program Builder. Once you get good, the transfer tiers are fairly useless, good teams don't have players transferring away. If anything there should be abilities for players to transfer with your coach if we take a different job somewhere. I would reword a lot of the descriptions to be more specific with the amount of increases in each of the tiers. What does "slight increase" mean? The mind reader ability would be better in the Program Builder or CEO. The could be a more generic ability, maybe an O mind reader and D mind reader. If it's costing that much to unlock, might as well make it to where you always learn the Dev trait after a visit if the player is already scouted. Coaching Carousel I have listed somethings out about this in my dynasty wishlist. Here is a quick run down I like the week by week advancing but I like the NCAA 14 carousel even more. It there was a way to merge the two to make something similar that would be awesome. Coordinators should be promoted from time to time. I have not seen a Coordinator promoted to the HC of a program once the HC leaves. Allow us to see the detailed coaching trees during the interview process and not after the offseason. Add midseason fires and interim coaches Alma matter should mean something Allow us to persuade coordinators to stay just like we can prospective draft picks or transfers. More coaches available during the interview process. Right now there are only a handful of coaches each week. With all the movement, there should be more coaches. All coordinators in the game should realistically be available to talk to throughout the carousel. Add position coaches Thanks for taking the time to review this wishlist. Let me know what your guys would want to see updated in CFB26 coaching trees or carousel. Check out my other Wishlists as well!Recruits' Appearances
In my opinion, this is a great game, but there is one major flaw that bothers me when playing dynasty and which will probably stop me from buying the next game if it won't get changed. When recruiting I noticed the appearances of recruits are off compared to what we actually see in College/NFL to a comically absurd extent. There are so many white CBs and RBs generated in this game, which rips all the immersion the game otherwise is really capable of creating. I really hope for CFB26 these changes will be made, I am specifically hoping for: RB: way less white players generated WR: way less white players generated CB: way less white players generated K/P: way less black players generated And also tone down the beards please!LOFF DYNASTIES!!
