@antpboy12 I don't buy the realism excuse at all. IMO it could be a cover as an artistic choice but the real reason is they are holding it out in case they don't get the rights to coaches and sales plateau after next year's game. Then they add editing to the game for CFB 27 and act like it's a big deal new feature. I hope I am wrong about that but it would be a very AAA sports dev thing to do.
Just to emphasize how ridiculous the realism argument for taking away this feature is, is it realistic that Colorado is one of the best teams in the game? Is it realistic that I can put Notre Dame in the SEC or any other number of conference moves that would never happen? Is it realistic that I can rename a white Canadian player "Kentavius Payne" or "Xi Jinping"? Beyond that, all of those things should be allowed no matter how unrealistic they may be because it's a game and everyone should be able to create their own experience. I remember watching videos of old Madden and NCAA games where people would create entire teams of 7'0" players and put them against a team of all 5'6" players. That's not something I would ever personally do in a dynasty or outside of it, but it was entertaining as hell to watch and I'm sure the guy had fun setting it up.
@Argta769 The people who have accessed the game so far either may not have been allowed to address it that much or are casuals and wouldn't think to. The one guy who did address it is the guy who supposedly gave the realism excuse. Streamers are playing with incomplete builds so there is still hope, but I'm very nervous about this. Once the game comes if we can't edit this stuff we really need to continuously @ CFB official twitter account as well as the devs themselves. I don't know if EA even pays attention to these forums aside from bugs and giving generic replies like if a PC version is planned or not.

@DANGERGOOSE1I was watching a steamer sim all the way to 2034 I noticed that all generated players had the same running animation. Good Greif EA this is why we need a PC release. I know many don't want to hear this but modders make developers up their game. If it wasn't for the work that CFB Revamped and the people who created the Ultra madden unlocked mode do you think we would see above the knee pants and other modifications in the game? I don't think we would.
