College Football 25 -Create a Player-

I see many questions in these threads but not many answers.

I was under the assumption that there was a Player Creation mode as they boasted about the thousands of options for different heads and hair combos ect- But from watching the you tube vids from people who have played the game by invite from EA this seems not to be true.

It sounds as though unless your playing “Road to Glory “ or whatever mode that is where you can create one player and go through a career I guess ( not familiar with this ) that this will be the only way to create or Edit Players … If anyone has any knowledge of this hit me up- otherwise I’ll just wait and see when game comes out …

  • @tuckermaine1 One of the playtesters just did an AMA on Reddit and asked about create a player

    https://old.reddit.com/r/NCAAFBseries/comments/1e1n4no/i_played_cfb_25_early_ama/lcv6xuq/

    Supposedly it's not in the game at all except for Road to Glory and maybe Teambuilder but he doesn't know anything about Teambuilder. If I had to guess Teambuilder rosters likely won't be customizable at all. Probably just different presets of team strength like in the old Teambuilder, only this time we can't edit the players.

    As far as editing players in general, you can edit some things about generated recruits in Dynasty. It is confirmed that we can edit name, equipment, height, weight, and physical body part sliders, but not number, at least as of the beta test build. Ratings editing of those guys is up in the air as well, most are speculating that probably isn't in either. And that's the thing that's most important to me.

    As far as real players in the game, you can't edit them at all.

  • So it seems like the only thing you can do to come close to putting yourself in dynasty mode, which you could do repeatedly if you wanted to, is to find a recruit from your hometown because you can't edit that, and change the name height and weight once you recruit the * out of them. I did recruit a right tackle for example from Cincinnati, but when you do the position change, a right tackle changing to an outside linebacker for example is going to make him a pretty * outside linebacker, so you should recruit someone from your hometown that at least plays the side of the ball that you want

    The fact that we would have to go through those hurdles to “create” someone is comical.

    Sounds like you’ve never played any of the previous NCAA football games if you don’t know what Road to Glory is… It’s absolutely insane that we can’t create players, because of NIL, which doesn’t make any sense whatsoever. Madden/ the NFL also has NIL, but they allow you to create players and edit everything and anything on their roster. I bet it was just a reason of laziness to be honest. EA always seems to drop the ball when it comes to stuff like this, especially when it comes to highly anticipated games! Thank you EA for making us wait a whole decade for a trash game…

    i agree i used create a prospect in the games i understand the nil thig but these guys would be totally fiction they need to return this to the game, also add back fcs teams and spring drills

     

  • Despite all of the great sounding updates to the game, I won´t be buying it if I can´t at least edit recruits skin color. After months I went back to try my Syracuse dynasty.....I get to the offseason....go to set up my recruiting board....ALL the RBs in my pipeline states NJ/NY/VA/MD are white! So are 95% of the CBs and WRs! Turned it off in disgust, annoyed at myself for forgetting why I stopped playing in the first place.

    What is the point of all the imrovements to immersion in this game if they can´t get this most basic tenet right? It´s not just "slightly off" or needs some fine-tuning.....it´s a COMPLETE REVERSAL of reality.

    This is borderline racist.

  • Create a prospect is not available on either game and it sucks I hope they'll fix it with a update or in next years version I know lots players want so hopefully enough people will complain about it hat they add it
