@ratucker725 I agree about the weather, and def about changing uniforms. Allowing us to change uniforms on an online mode seemed like a no brainer, but allowing custom playbooks is a TERRIBLE idea for online game play. You'll get guys using the best teams with nothing but cheese plays, we do not want that. Plus, it goes against everything college football is. Teams run certain schemes because it's their identity, it's who they are and why we love them. I don't want to see Navy coming out in 5 wide, that's just not college football. I seen an official EA post about this awhile back too, so I believe they understood playbooks and how a team runs their offense is a big part of the team's identity.
The majority of teams do not have a traditional scheme. EA’s mantra is that every school is someone’s favorite team. If I don’t like my favorite team’s playbook, then why should I be stuck with it?
Regarding cheese, there is a likelihood that cheesers will all start using the same elite team because of the playbook (e.g., Alabama). It is NOT a compelling reason to disallow custom playbooks.
