Encourage transfers
I can under state how disappointed that EA saw a need to patch a very fun feature in the game that allowed you to manually send players into the transfer portal. It was my favorite part of the game and I play dynasty mode 99 percent of the time. I will not be buying a copy next year unless this is rectified. I really wish another major game company would bring the competition because it’s been clear for a long time that they do not care about their customers.
Recruiting Mularkey!
So I'm playing a Dynasty with Vanderbilt it was a tough go for the first two seasons being the sissy team of the SEC but by season 3 I was a powerhouse - won the SEC and then the National Championship. I stacked on this with Back to Back Championships earning a three-peat as National Champions. I go to recruit this year and I've got 2 players in the entire country that have me as their #1 choice. They are both in Tennessee BTW. Seriously EA? It's not like I'm UTSA or Nevada - I'm a three time National Champion team, 4 time Coach of the Year in the premier conference in the country with the best Academics in the conference and only 2 people in the entire country put me at the top of the list. I'm not the favored destination in my own State. How about somebody put just a little effort into this game that isn't about some my team cash grab.Why I quit
This game is soooooooo bad. I get that its a game, but it can't make up its mind between gameplay vs. realism. My biggest issue has finally come to a head and had me retire my controller. The inability to make semi fast defenive adjustments makes the game unplayable. The only way to beat a 99-99 Wr is making good defensive calls and bringing complexity to the game. Its so frustrating that the tools are there, but the time constraints don't allow. There should be a 5 second-freeze before a player can snap the ball. It always both parties to make adjustments. I can't improve, my skill level is capped as I can't do anything but my base defense I pick.NEW CFB 26 DYNASTY YR 1

In my dynasty after I auto-reorder my players the running back is never my top one. It puts the last one in on my depth chart list. When I try to sub him out, the game won't let me and leaves him in. How do I get my best RB to come in the game and not my last one on the depth chartOnline Dynasty Weekly Summary Updates does not show for me.
I am the owner of the online dynasty with friends. If I am not currently logged in the dynasty when the week is advanced, I do not get the weekly summary update for recruits and potential transfers. Everybody else in the league gets them. The same thing happened to me in NCAA 25. Anybody else having this issue?Needs some work
More times then I’d like to admit I see my DL man in the face of a QB but scared to tackle. Does anyone else believe varsity setting is the real term for heisman? Idk maybe it’s me. I have really good games on the All American setting but I truly believe there is a slight issue with varsity setting. Can we please get some difficulty sliders for recruiting this is the biggest aspect of dynasty yet I can’t get a slight adjustment. Without the easy aspect of developers just cramming everything into one. Last but not least can we get a flag for hitting a defenseless receiver. My guy will be going up for a pass of course he’s going to drop when he gets his ankles cut out and lands on his helmet.Reasonable Dynasty Complaints
While i'm grateful that we have college football in the form of a video game, I feel like there is a lot of room for improvement. From what I've seen online, the devs seem to listen to players complaints more than other big games. Hopefully you guys see this. These are some of my issues I've discovered with CFB so far. All of these are going to be focused on Dynasty mode since thats my most played game mode. First off is the unrealistic sim stats. It seems like every year my QB is at the bottom in terms of passing yards because every other QB in game has 4,000-5,000 yard seasons. Last year, only 6 quarterbacks in FBS passed for over 4,000 yards. The previous years are about the same. I know its a small detail but I feel like it kills immersion. Passing attempts are also extremely high per QB. Overall, there are a ton of examples in the season stats that are simply unrealistic. The same can be said for game stats. For example, most of the games I play always have an extremely skewed Time of Possession. In real life, most games finish near a 50/50 TOP split. The good news is that these issues seem to be an issue that can be fixed fairly easily by messing with their sim engine. Secondly is more of a request for future installments but during the offseason, players should be able to apply to job openings. My job offers in CFB 26 so far have been pretty terrible. Being able to apply to more jobs creates variety and honestly, the basic four offers players get to choose from feels a bit dull. The name generator in the recruitment tab needs some more variety. It feels like there’s so much repetition after a handful of seasons. I've seen about 7 different Manziel's and Rooks' in just 4 seasons so far. I also think having a limitation on recruiting for OC/DC's would also be awesome. I shouldn't be able to recruit defensive players if I'm an OC and vice-versa. Having more limitations like this in game would drive me to actually seek out a HC position more.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.

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.
