Re: Feedback on College Football 25

So many issues with Dynasty mode as well.

-85 man roster limits, can’t cut freshmen or transfers, can’t view player cards when making the decision of who to cut (seeing the dev trait could be a big factor in determining)

-guys who you don’t even OFFER a scholarship will commit and be forced onto your 85 man roster as a freshmen and you’re forced to cut someone you actually planned to keep

-the schedule generator is broken, it generates an invalid schedule, the auto fix doesn’t work and you can’t customize your schedule at all

-the options for which coordinators you can offer should never be limited to 5 guys when you’re a perennial power, especially if the best we can do is “offer” and maybe not even get one of those 5 when there’s dozens of other coaches available

-for position changes there isn’t even an ATH tab?? So they’re what defaulted into nothing? I found you can find them on the full roster page but why don’t they have a position tab like everyone else? 

-the coaching abilities has far too many components if we’re gonna be maxed at level 50 and 500 coins earned

-you can’t see recruiting classes when considering a new job.  Think maybe that may have a role in whether someone leaves their current job or stays????


-what’s with the logic for job offers??? I’m the head coach at Georgia after back to back titles and I’m being offered the coordinator job at Minnesota? Why even bother doing job offers that are so foolish?

-why can’t verbal commits be flipped?? What’s the point of having a “verbal” commitment and then an actual “signing” if flips can’t happen? It’s such a huge part of the actual college football recruiting process 

-why did we take a step back in searching for recruits?  Why is it so difficult to be able to SEARCH OR SORT best available players with no scholarship offers?  In 2014 we could search for players with no scholarships, search/sort on where a player was at (top 5, top 3, top 10 cutoffs already) we also can’t even see how far back we are of 1st or 10th if we aren’t even in the top 9 feom the jump.  HOW DID YOU GO BACKWARDS AND MAKE IT WORSE???

-I won back to back National Championships and had an A+ prestige, after I won the second my Coach prestige dropped to A-.  What on earth? 

Not to mention the glitches of trying to view a player card only for a totally different player card to be displayed, the constant crashing during position changes.

    Spot on.

    It feels like I've had committed players who are no longer committed because their deal breakers have changed. Thought it was over after being committed? 

    Coaching abilities/hiring is a nightmare. Can't even max out certain parts of my coaching tree. While Oregon is signing 35 players by week 6. Year after year at that.

    Perfect review. Fix dynasty. I won’t be picking it back up till next year. If it’s not better after that, I won’t be purchasing. I’ve already quit madden since 2017 since it’s so bad. If they mess up College football next year, that’ll be it for EA for me.

    Also I’m the awards watch list tab you can’t see players stats then in Heisman watch all it shows is last game stats it should show season stats to that point. This game is *. So much that we loved from past ncaa games is gone it’s bull *. And another thing  in dynasty I’m #2 playing #1 Florida and the game isn’t even televised. How? This game is a shell of what we all wanted. There is so much more wrong to much to list. Please EA START LISTENING TO THE FANS AND STOP MAKING GARBAGE!!!

  • Game play is terrible too. Was better when the game first came out. Tired of cpu QBs completing 90% of passes for 400 yards.

    Thanks for this feedback everyone! 

    We just wanted to highlight a couple of these issues that were addressed with the Title Update on September 19:


    1. Fixed an issue where selecting auto-fix schedules in custom schedules would not correctly fix the schedule.
    2. Fixed an issue where coaches would not receive any job offers when receiving a contract extension.

    Check out this Campus Huddle article for more details about the College Football 25 Title Update and thank you for the ongoing feedback!

  • PLEASE fix Dynasty! Coaching carousel used to be one of my favorite things about the game. Now it’s a joke. I can win my 4th National Championship in a row with a P5 school, and the only offers I get are coordinator roles? Please fix this asap or fix for next year. We enjoy jumping around to coach multiple places!

  • First thanks for bringing the game back.  I hope it comes back each year and gets' better and better just like in the past.  The look of the game is truly amazing.  Now if I can make some suggestions that I know would improve play for me, and maybe others as well.  Here goes:

    1. I purely like to coach.  Therefore all player position should be subject to this, even the kickers.  I am older and have a bad tremor which makes the kicking game near impossible for me.  Please consider this in the spirit of the handicapped players that want to play this game.
    2. Desperately need a full on User Manual or Fully Immersed Videos of Play.  One or both is desperately needed to figure out the new features.
    3. Need the old run/pass slider back please.  The game will not simulate how I want my team managed and throws way to much.
    4. Need the formation editor back as this allows to ability to spread the ball around and prevent some transfers.
    5. During the "In Game Moments" you should be able to watch the other side of the non played portion.
    6. No Base Defensive packages that I could find in 3-3-5 or 4-2-5.  Also should we not have a position for Bandits and Spurs in recruiting or at least on the Depth Chart.
    7. Recruiting is Hard which is fun, but:
      • How is it the computer teams get 35 or more commits every single year when I can sometimes get 15 no matter how good I am.  No I understand the sell and sway features and will identify them but still lose out while winning.  It makes no sense at times.
      • How can the computer teams get commits without even a visit set up but yet I can't.  I have seen computer teams with commits after week 2 and as many as 15 by week 6.  Again I am lucky if I have 1 or 2 after tedious work.
      • You lose points from initial scholarship offer round to second round for no apparent reason and this kills momentum of smaller schools trying to make it big.
    8. The Heisman hates any position besides QB.
    9. I had a RB win the best RB award with less than 1,000 yards rushing.  The game is way way way to focused on the pass.
    10. The QB should run the option on his own as again, I just want to Coach and can't due this type of thing due to a tremor.

    Thanks for the bringing the fun back.  I look forward to your response.  

  • One other thing is that the computer QB will run from the pocket but min won't.  Can this be fixed as well for those of us that want to coach only.

  • Of course another thing that would be helpful is the annoying situational stuff with making your own playbook.  I just want around 65 plays and I know where I will use them.  Could we lose that part. Although a more traditional grab and drop would not be so bad for say types of passes.  Thanks again.

  • Is this a bug in the system...I go to NC game and lose.  I then lose prestige from 4.5 to 4 and get downgraded on NFL pro prospects.  Seems very strange, as it should be the opposite.
