Summarize your bug I have an online dynasty with two friends and we've completed one full season. During the first season, we couldn't see team schedules or past results for any team in the game. Not only that, but nobody could schedule visits for recruits, not even CPU-controlled teams. Going into season two, custom schedules isn't working at all either. For every team, it shows every single week as a bye week. When I ask it to autopopulate the schedule, it throws some games in there and lets you customize it, but when you save changes and then go back in, it shows everything as blank again. Is there any way to fix this?

Yep. This happening to me as well. Players have narrowed down there top schools and I’m unable to schedule visits despite being in top 5 or top 3. Happening to a lot of recruits I have.

Noticing this more often now.

Summarize your bug I scheduled Notre Dame for a week 10 game in order to schedule visits for top recruits later in the mid season. I was battling against ND for a recruit and went to schedule them for a visit to the ND game in week 10. When I went to do this it said they already had a visit scheduled with ND for week 10, but ND was playing an away game during that week so they shouldn't be allowed to schedule that visit.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Change your team's schedule to add a HOME game around week 8-11. Get into a recruiting battle with the team you added to your schedule. There is a chance that the team will schedule the recruit to visit during the week they are playing at your stadium
What happens when the bug occurs? AI teams are allowed to schedule recruit visits during weeks when they are playing an away game after customizing your teams schedule.
What do you expect to see? I would expect the AI team to be unable to schedule the recruit visit during that week

I didn't think to take a screenshot of this occurring

I have had the same issue. EA team, we need recruitment to a huge focus in the next big update. Recruiting is the lifeblood of a lot of these rebuilds, and loosing out on generational talents because you cannot schedule a visit is extremely frustrating and a big turn off

Also having same issue. Got about 9 weeks in and was able to schedule, all of a sudden now I cannot schedule visits, even though the players are in top 5 and I am 1 or 2, even when they get to top 3 and I’m still in it still says cannot schedule visit until recruit narrows down to top 5 schools. Lost a lot of recruits I was 1 or 2 on because of this. Won’t let me schedule with any recruit anymore, extremely frustrating

I’M STILL SUFFERING FROM THIS BULLSH*T!!!!

Hi everyone, 

Thank you for reaching out to us about this. 

I wanted to drop in and let you know that we're looking into the issues with scheduling visits in some scenarios. We'll follow up here when we've got any updates to share. 

We appreciate you bearing with us while we're investigating this. 

Same problem here. I can’t schedule visits with anyone. 

Also waiting for this to be patched. Do you guys at EA have any sort of time frame? Dynasty is my main draw for the game and I don’t really want to play anymore until at least this is fixed. 

I’m not sure, but it may be happening around the same time some players’ helmets start to turn white. Around week 8 or 9.
