Serious concerns about Road to Glory High School mode
Dear EA Sports team, As a long-time fan of college football video games, I was incredibly excited for the return of College Football 26. However, I’m genuinely disappointed by the way Road to Glory has been implemented – especially the high school portion. The decision to reduce high school games to short “moments” instead of allowing us to play full games feels like a huge step backward. It removes all immersion, limits player development, and frankly makes the entire pre-college experience feel hollow and rushed. It honestly seems like EA has ignored years of community feedback. We’ve waited over a decade for this game to return – was it really too much to expect the most basic parts of career mode (like full games) to be playable? Right now, Road to Glory feels like a stripped-down, on-rails experience with little freedom or depth. Many of us play offline, and we want the full, classic experience back – with full high school seasons, deeper customization, and meaningful progression. Please take this feedback seriously. We’re not just “moments” players. We want to live the journey – not skip through it. Sincerely, A disappointed but hopeful fan PS: I don’t want to wait for cfb27 with this🙃Defensive RTG is unplayable
The coach grade dropping is far too aggressive. This has been stated before, but this fix should be prioritized. - No weighting on defensive grade drops - I get -15 for a gain of 1 on 3rd and 9? Context matters. This isn't offset enough for "defensive stop" - I don't get credit for PBUs for other defenders, but I get deducted if they allow a catch. Same for throw aways? - Good / Great coverage is bugged. Appears randomly - As stated, academics value per energy is not realistic Considering we can adjust exp and sliders, just let us turn on/off the grades. I just want to play without playing 1 drive per quarter before I get dropped. I don't necessarily think this is "skill issue". I think it's unfair to penalize an individual player for a defensive unit. The joy of this game comes from being hercules on a bad squad, but that's impossible if my 64 edge defender can't set the edge while I'm playing cornerback on the opposite side.Academics is very unrealistic
I dedicate at least 3 of my 6/7 weekly energy points to Academics, and I'll get it all the way up to a 3.6/3.8. Then exam time hits and I get C's or D's, my GPA plummets and I have "fail" on academics. Then I have to spend even more to get it back to where I'm eligible. This is also after I choose whatever prompts I get to say "study for this exam/project/etc" that also take away energy points. This needs to be fixed. Suggestions: make small drops unless the player NEVER spends any time in academics--to which make the plummet. But if the player spends time in academics, at least let it go up around exam time. Also, 6 or 7 energy points is very low considering you have 5 areas to work on, which a few of them start off using 2 energy points. That's WAY too difficult to maintain and is not realistic. Minimally it should be 8 with a few 10s sprinkled in.RTG as a DB
To start off I am not that good at the game. However that being said, I created a DB RTG and in the high school games I had a lot of fun and got an interception. I have played as a DB in 25 and as well in former Madden games. Playing as my DB once I got him to college has been a struggle. My player is consistently not being targeted even though I feel as if I am baiting the QB pretty well. But that is not what has been frustrating the most. What has been the most frustrating is the fact that I am constantly being subbed out because my grade gets down to an F. This is so frustrating because the main reason my grade is getting so low is because of the plays on the opposite side of the field that are big gains which is all on my teammates not me yet I have to lose so much coach trust/happiness because of it.
RTG: Cannot Graduate Early OR still taking classes in 5th year.
I’ve gone through 3 RTG players, picking a different route to the end each time. One using the transfer portal after 2 seasons, one with all 4 years at the same school, and lastly redshirting for 5 years at the same school. Each run through had the same 4.0 GPA in every season. I sunk in every possible point into academics each week. According to my academic advisor, getting a 3.8 GPA or higher would result in graduating early… just like in CFB25 However, my senior season in each one involved full participation in the Academics tab in the weekly agenda, INCLUDING my 5th season with a school. I’ve read online that it works for some, doesn’t work for others. I think it’s beyond safe to say that this is broken, and needs to be addressed.the RB in QB road to glory is the dumbest thing on Earth
Hi EA Team, I’d like to report a serious issue with running back AI in Road to Glory when playing as a quarterback. When I hand the ball off to the RB, the AI consistently picks terrible running lanes, completely ignores open gaps, and often runs straight into defenders or blockers. It feels like the RB has no awareness of the field, making it nearly impossible to trust the ground game. This makes calling run plays as a QB extremely frustrating, especially when the blocking is solid but the RB chooses the worst possible direction every time. Please consider improving the RB decision-making logic in RTG — it really hurts the overall experience when the run game becomes unusable due to poor AI. Thanks, One of your customers who paid for the game🫠🥴 P.S. I’m still waiting for the High School fix😬RTG Trophies not registering for MIKE LB
Has anyone that’s played a defensive position ever received a trophy and had it show up in the trophy room? I’ve played 4 years and received awards at the end of the year and they do not show up in the trophy room inside the RTG menu or in the trophy room at the main menu.Road to Glory is terrible
The “wide” camera angle is terrible. Playing as a CB when you’re on the outside you can’t even see what’s going on including yourself at sometimes. Same old get subbed out randomly even if you’re a 99 starter. gameplay at least in Road to Glory feels fluky and weird. Also have noticed random moments when it’s like the game takes control of my player. I’m trying to turn to the left and he’ll do like a SWAT or he’ll move a different direction than what I’m turning him to. I was hoping to get more positions this year, such as safety, tight end, edge rusher, but at this point, I think they just need to go back to college football 25 and start from there. I enjoyed college football 25 last year and was thinking this year would be even better considering how good it was since it had been so long since NCAA 14. But I was wrong, Instead of improving it has gotten worse. Continuously losing coach trust for every little thing that happens whether it has anything to do with you or not. Overall, very disappointed with the game. I’m really hoping Madden is not the same as college football because if it is, I’m going to be missing the money I wasted.Hair Graphics
Yo guys. This happened in 25 too but I always thought it would be fixed in 26, just hopped on and I guess its not. Basically, the hair graphics in my game (When player creating in RTG) look like some old gen textures and it kind of bugs me. If I watch someone make their character in their version of the game its 100x better. Just wondering if there's any fix to this. ThanksCamera view in RTG for CBs
EA I am begging can yall please make the wide camera angle for RTG CBs wide enough so I can see my CB and the Wr I'm lined up with I'm literally getting cooked because I can't see anything the wr or my cb is doing when the ball is lined up on the strong side of the field and I'm on the weak side and vice versa please fix so I can enjoy my 6'4 cb will Pickett he's a legendMike rtg
After freshman Season . Linebacker keeps being moved to edge . Multiple different saves Doesn’t seem to matter whether I transfer or not . Pass rushing controls trash . I get more sacks shooting gaps and now I can’t get interceptions or make usual plays or just play Mike lol . PLEASE FIX !!!Linebacker moved to rush end
For some reason my Mike linebacker got moved to rush end in his second year. He’s starting at rush end on the depth chart and there’s no way for me to change it. This would be a cool feature if I wanted to play edge, but I don’t, and the play calling in this game has 90% of your calls being out of nickel. I started this RTG a few weeks ago and had to quit due to this bug. I was very disappointed to find that the patch didn’t address it all. Please fix the game EA, I payed $70 and it’s frustrating that Mike Linebacker, one of my favorite positions to play in cfb 25, is just unplayable in this game. If anyone knows any workarounds or fixes please let me know.Can’t regenerate health stuck in severe this game is ridiculous
Can’t regenerate health stuck in severe this game is ridiculous spent 70 dollars on a game I can’t play is someone looks at me there should be a lawsuit against this company for stealing money you all are a pathetic crooked money stealing company and should be ashamed
