@Mareec3 the reason we cannot edit a lot is because they are trying to prevent fans from creating players who opted out. There’s a chance people who opted out have a change of heart and decide they want to be in the game and will be added with a roster update.
@SgtSlugbug I saw it on one of the EA creator videos when they were discussing some of the stuff before the game was released.
I haven't started a Dynasty with a real team yet (I've been playing with a Team Builder team), but that's annoying to hear. I played with USC when I first got the game just to try them out, and the first thing I noticed was that a non-NIL player is their starting RB and is wearing #3. Since #3 is retired at USC, my first thought was that when I decide to start a Dynasty with them, I'll have to change that player's number.
I would suggest that maybe EA could just block the numbers that are retired by each school, similar to what NBA 2K does where you can't assign someone a number that is retired by that team, but there are instances in which the player who's number is retired gives permission to other players to wear their numbers. So yeah, over all I agree with everyone.
@Mareec3 100%. Being able to change jersey numbers is what a lot of us want. I’m fine with them locking names so they can’t be edited.
