Title Update 5 (10/24): Will Someone Please Provide Dynasty Mode Feedback

After the useless Title Update released on September 19th, which ignored the hundred or so game issues in all modes and only patched the kicking meter visual, I uninstalled the game and am currently refusing to further test, until confirmation has been received, regarding a number of Dynasty (offline or online) bugs/glitches/issues.

* Addition of new uniforms (confirmed between twenty and twenty-five new sets added in this Title Update), however, untested to verify functionality during uniform selection pre-game, or on-field visuals occurring during the games.

* Sock option selection for Xbox Series X/S platforms, in which seventy or more teams default to white or black, in opposition to user choices; nearly every colored or alternate sock option currently broken.

* Custom conference logos, especially when adding teams to the SEC (i.e. Troy or Louisiana where the jersey and field logo appears with the primary team color used for lettering and logo background).

* Custom conference additions where team field logos remain at their initial default, for example Kennesaw State, Charlotte, and James Madison, and teams with distorted field logos when changed to any conference, i.e. Western Kentucky.

* Custom conference scheduling for game engine adhering to, and abiding by user selections for number of conference games selected, tie breaker scenarios, and conference championship bowl game location.

* Dramatically improved game simming for results, team poll ranking, and College Football Playoff guidelines (bye weeks and seeding).

* Bowl game on-field lighting and camera glitch patches (overly bright contrasting, obscured views from specific camera angles, etc.)

* Player development, transfer portal, and wear and tear injury patches that have been required for over three months.

If anyone can provide feedback on these issues, would greatly appreciate that, as to not waste time reinstalling the game again, thank you.

    Abbreviated Patch Notes just released for Title Update 5 (10/24) pertaining only to gameplay, Dynasty, and general presentation and team updates. There are additional notes with relation to Road to Glory, Teambuilder, and Ultimate Team, however, personally do not engage in those modes.

    Fixed an issue where some press animations would press the receiver 10 yards down the field.
     
    Pass Blocking
     
    Addressed an issue where using the Defensive Linemen Slant Inside Command would cause defenders to rush into the same gap.

    Reinstalled the game again earlier today to test for Title Update changes. All of the previous sock option selections (colored, black, or special) for nearly every team are still completely broken. As stated in numerous other posting to this discussion forum, this issue should be both an easier patch than other issues, and preventable from corruption in future updates. What is the most egregious with this problem, is that EA developers spent the resources last week to update uniform options for many teams, and neglected to address the sock selection option. For example, Illinois received the new 100th Anniversary pack, and actually the special sock option associated with that choice functions after the Title Update, however, the orange sock option that was broken more than ten weeks ago, is still present for Kick Off, Dynasty, and presumably Ultimate Team. Apparently, developers could not be bothered to spend an additional ten minutes to patch that issue, when already in the game coding (programming) engine for that team. At this point, will uninstall the game, and wait until Thanksgiving (Title Update 6), then proceed with preliminary testing again. Must assume that custom conference field and jersey logos are still broken, in addition to bowl ranking, polls, and simming engine.
