Re: Dynasty Update For College Football 25

@jokirleo Not sure how I missed this but there was a small update last week:
https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/College-Football-25-Title-Update-August-19th/m-p/13985091/highlight/true#M5192

I'll check in with the team today to see if anything is on the horizon. 

@EA_Failroader Thanks but that update doesn’t address anything I listed above

@jokirleo yes sir, that's why I'll check in with the team this week on any other news.

@EA_Failroader Given that the next patch is "guaranteed" to be coming on Thursday (https://x.com/bordeauxyoutube/status/1824867013015330842) isn't it a little late to be checking in with the team for news? If they ever actually communicate anything with you wouldn't you have a pretty good idea of what's coming by now given the next update is 2 days away?

Also, by my count you've mentioned 'checking in with your team' and 'letting us know' anything you find out, or words to that effect 4 times in this thread (post 90, 119, 120, 128), yet you've given us 0 actual info from the devs that hasn't been tweeted.

@EA_Failroader This. You’ve said that multiple times. What do we have to do to actually get someone to forward our concerns to and get info from EA?

Or…

How do we get in touch with them ourselves if you can’t or refuse to?

No answer. He'll be back in two weeks to say the same thing. They're probably just ignoring him too.

Part of me hopes they announce the "Massive Title Update!!!!" and it turns out to be just a couple of new uniforms plus advertisements for Ultimate Team pop up randomly during a play tricking you into buying coins.

@NoMoreExclusives Most likely

@EA_Failroader Are they ignoring your powers?

Sooooooo….. what’d they say??? 

lol. Lo and behold — a day before this alleged update releases, they are radio silent. These people man. There should be a staff directory we can reach out to the developers. and there should be a credits tab in this game. If there’s not… well. I don’t blame them. Wouldn’t wanna take credit for this piece of garbage myself. Anyway, we need to start putting the pressure on the devs somehow some way. This forum is clearly not working.

Hey @EA_Failroader

We’d really appreciate it if you were responsive.

You could be that voice for us, since you’re connected to EA in whatever way this forum allows for. Regardless, I’m almost positive you’re more connected to the powers that be than we are.

Give it the ole’ college try—pun intended. 

And to be frank, and honest: you’ve been mostly a ghost other than pointing fingers at a useless twitter account once every blue moon. You said yesterday you’d “reach out to the team.” What team are you referring to? Who do you go to for answers for us? Who do they go to? If you aren’t going to “moderate” then why are you here?

This forum is the clearest example of why I hate playing games made by EA. They don't care about consumers, they buy up all the rights to games we love, and then they ruin them. They are literally the worst company for consumers. They just want to acquire IP that they can do nothing with and make money anyway. If someone had a politician that cared perhaps we could make a show of it. Otherwise they get so much money from hooking kids on gambling that they don't care to address anything.

Have the scheduling bugs been fixed? I didn't see anything in the patch notes.

After all the recent questions and comments this is your response @EA_Failroader ? Just a generic link to the title update which I'm sure almost everyone knew had dropped already?

Sigh.

I don't think * on him is going to do anything. Pretty sure that's the reason EA put him here. To just be a punching bag that can distract fan anger or be thrown under the bus if there's ever an uproar. They probably don't even get responses from the team other than "we're looking into it." I'm mad too, but ultimately it's my fault for buying another EA product. We bought into a known grift and got mad about being grifted.

After the most recent response, I’m pretty sure it’s a bot

Next year, EA will advertise that the game is greater than ever and all the glitches have been fixed and most of us will fall for it again only to find that 9-3 Bowling Green will still get ranked higher than 11-1 Ohio State and if you customize conferences and/or schedules just the slightest you'll still get P5 teams with 3 home games and 9 road games with a stretch of 3 straight bye weeks and playing a conference rival on the road for 4 years straight. Most of us will fall for it again. This is what happens when a company has little to no competition. They have no incentive to fix things because they know people will still buy it. We need to just quit buying it for a couple of years and they'll stop making it or fix it. I know they spend a lot on licensing to get logos, real players, etc but I would rather have fake players and teams and not have the problems I listed if that's what it takes. We're not getting our money's worth.

And upon viewing the patch notes, still no update on the coaching carousel, level caps, o-line blocking, Hawaii’s proximity to home glitch, force wins resulting in losses, not being able to switch athletes once they’re changed to wr’s, scheduling bugs, or team builder fixes

But thank heavens they added all those alternate jerseys!

Monopolies. So dumb. FFS.

Have you done the update yet? What is it supposed to fix? I want to update but I'm afraid I'll just get frustrated again after I do and then run another dynasty sim just to see the same old problems occurring.

Pre-release my fear was that they were going to try and fall back on the licensing to sell the games. Seems like that was their strategy by a lot of the design decisions in the game like not giving the ability to edit things that have nothing to do with NIL deal, making team builder an after thought, etc. I'm with you in that I could not care less about having actual college players in the game. If I really want them in the game I'll edit them into the game.

Sadly, Idk how we’re gonna get all the elementary school kids parents to stop buying games for their kids. I wish we could just get in touch with someone. 

Can we just drown the devs with bug reports?

@ThatBoyZD

They did post the patch notes this morning, but unfortunately it seems to be severely lacking
