Summarize your bug Cannot edit anything with custom schedules.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Get an online dynasty with 32 users and try to make any changes to the custom schedule with no changes to the conferences.
What happens when the bug occurs? I get the message telling me "there are user teams whose schedule don't meet the desired requirements" even when all I do is change a road game to a home game. No matter what I do I get this message.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see the changes I made to the schedules get applied with no issues!

So I am setting up the custom schedules to meet my dynasties rule of at least 4 user non-conference games and no matter what change I make I can't get any change to happen at all. I get the stupid there are user teams whose schedule don't meet the desired requirements message every time when there is 0 issues with the schedules. This needs to be fixed. I can't run a strong league when I can't even get a say in on who plays who.

    Summarize your bug In season 3 of my offline dynasty, I want to customize my team's schedule. However, whenever I customize the schedule and try to go back to the main menu, I get this: ATTENTION There are user teams whose schedules don't meet the desired requirements. How would you like to proceed? Whenever I select "OK", which is the only option, I get this: EXIT CUSTOM SCHEDULES? Some Schedules do not meet the required criteria. How would you like to proceed? Continue Editing Auto-Fix Schedules Discard Changes The only way I can get back to the dynasty menu is by selecting "discard changes," which means I cannot customize the schedule. Since I discovered this bug, I've noticed a host of people playing offline dynasty reporting the problem is various forums. However, there have been two large patches, yet this bug persists. Please fix it immediately! Additionally, the conference and division schedules do not change from year to year except for the location of the game, which is not realistic. This also must change immediately!

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Create a dynasty. Play/sim to the beginning of the 3rd season. Try to customize your schedule.
    What happens when the bug occurs? I cannot customize the schedule and have to play with what the default is.
    What do you expect to see? I expect that conference and division schedules will follow the normal mode of scheduling in the "real world." I expect to be able to customize non-conference schedules freely on a yearly basis unless a feature is added where schools contract with one another to schedule games years out, which would be more realistic. Previous iterations of NCAA from at least a decade ago, despite being more primitive, NEVER had this issue. This is a huge problem that also manifests itself on online dynasty mode. I'm not quite sure this was not fixed prior to release since one of the advertised features was customizable schedules and marketing promoted realism. This is NOT realistic. Fix it immediately!

    Summarize your bug Once I made it to my second season with my Teambuilder Custom team(I replaced Vandy), when I go to change my schedule the game says "There are user teams whose schedules don't meet the desired requirements." One, it does not tell me what the desired requirements are. Two, at the next screen, if you have the game "Auto-Fix schedules" it crashes to the main menus and says the servers could not process your request. This occurs even if I switch one game from a home to an away game or vice-versa. I would like to add that this probably would not occur if we could just edit teams offline.
    How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1)Start a Dynasty with a Custom builder team that has been edited. 2)Play through an entire season 3)Attempt to use the custom schedules feature 4)Be disappointed that you can't continue your Dynasty
    What happens when the bug occurs? The game crashes to the main menu
    What do you expect to see? I would expect that this would be patched, but there has been two patches that haven't fixed this issue.

    The custom schedule bug remains in Dynasty mode after the second patch/update.

  • How was this not addressed in the 1st title update? This is just as big of a bug as the custom coaches one.

    Summarize your bug I'm in the preseason, 2034. I'm unable to customize the schedule due to a bug. Whenever I try to customize and then exit, I get the message "there are user teams whose schedules don't meet the desired requirements. How would you like to proceed?". After the message I get three choices - continue editing, auto-fix schedules, or discard changes. If I select auto-fix I get "the command failed.please try again. I'm playing a single player dynasty campaign, offline.
    How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play dynasty mode to the year 2034 and try to customize the schedule. Try to change a team or change a game from vs to at, and then back out to save.
    What happens when the bug occurs? You get the error message that I quoted in my summary.
    What do you expect to see? Up until now, in all the years before 2034, I've been able to customize the schedule. So I expect to be able to make changes to the schedule and save the changes.

    I have nothing to upload

    Summarize your bug Offline Dynasty with custom conference (Just recreated Pac 12 and playing as Arizona State). The First two seasons I was able to customize my team schedule. The third season I was presented with an unresolvable error.
    How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Create a dynasty, create the pac-12 as it existed last year, play through a year or two and try to customize your schedule each year. For me, it worked the first two seasons, but not the third. I saw other posts mentioning it happening in the second season.
    What happens when the bug occurs? Beginning the third season and now any attempt to modify the schedule in any way results in an error message stating "ATTENTION: There are user teams whose schedules don't meet the desired requirements." The only option is "Continue" and then four choices: "Continue Editing", "Auto-fix schedule", "re-generate schedule" and "discard changes". Auto-fix schedule results in "Command Failed" prompt. I can continue editing to no avail or discard changes. "Re-generate schedule" gives me random new non-conference games but I still can't change anything and the conference games remain the same. I initially changed all of my non conference games, when that didn't work I tried just changing one game at a time, even keeping a game but switching home or away all result in the same error. In addition, When I set the custom conference rules, I set 7 conference games. Only six are autogenerated and they are all locked. I cannot add another conference game to any of the "editable" weeks because no one from my conference appears in the dropdown, even week 0. In addition, the game was advertised as being able to edit rivals. I have never been able to do that. ASU only has Arizona set as a rival, I would like to add USC and Utah.
    What do you expect to see? I'd like to able to customize my schedule. I'd like my custom conference settings to work. I'd like to be able to add/remove teams as rivals, as advertised.

    First two seasons I was able to customize schedules in offline dynasty, third season I cannot. I'm using custom conference, recreated Pac-12.

    Can we get an update that addresses and fixes scheduling errors for both offline and online dynasty? Offline should NEVER have a scheduling error when trying to change games and who I decide to play. In online dynasty with multiple users it is almost impossible to make any adjustments for scheduling games because of constant errors. Why does it not live update across all users' schedules when adjusting games since only the original creator of the dynasty can even adjust schedules? It would be easy enough to just default the original scheduled game to a FCS team in place so that custom schedules can be made. This DESPERATELY NEEDS TO BE FIXED. This is a day 1 bug. 
    Also, can we please get schedule strength put into the game?

    i killed an offline dynasty because of THIS exact issue... Was trying to bring my 'Cuse up to the promised land, but i can't ramp up the intensity of my schedule when the 'random' generated schedule puts me against Notre Dame, Alabama and Tennessee in consecutive years, all at neutral sites.  Can't even go INTO that screen just to look at hte custom schedules without getting an ERR...

    @bca107ec01d3db96 Had the same thing happen to me as well in the second year of my offline dynasty. Schedule is completely locked if change one thing and change it back it still says error and won’t even let me regenerate a schedule without the error message coming up. Another frustrating part is putting 9 conference games for every conference and half of them only having 8 conference games feels like a huge slap in the face for all the time i spent on custom schedules and conference rules.
