Dynasty Redshirt Issues

Dynasty Redshirt Issues

I've found a couple problems with the Redshirt system in Dynasty mode:

  • Players with Redshirts for the current season get subbed into blowouts
  • When any Redshirts are added or removed, the depth chart gets auto-reordered
  • When a Redshirt is updated, player numbers in that position group are subject to change

Players with Redshirts for the current season get automatically subbed into blowouts

In a Dynasty game when up by 40ish points at half time, the backups were automatically sent into the game. Usually, I like this feature. This time, there were a few players that I had played earlier in the season, and had redshirted before they had reached the ineligibility limit for games played. This can be a pretty big problem if a redshirt gets burned because of an auto substitution.

When any Redshirts are added or removed, the depth chart gets auto-reordered

I put a lot of consideration early in the season, even before the season, putting certain players in certain spots. I want to make sure I don't have the same RB or DE on the field all game for wear and tear reasons, I want certain receivers on at certain times, I want my 5 best OL starting regardless of position, even reordering so my punt and kickoff teams have the best gunners on them. This all gets undone if I ever add or remove a redshirt from a player. It's an annoyance.

When a Redshirt is updated, player numbers in that position group are subject to change

After my players had their redshirts taken off for the second half of a blowout, I noticed that some of my WR numbers were changed mid-season. I would like the ability to change numbers of generated players, and if I can't, maybe this is an interesting hack, but it seems like a bug. Currently, I don't care too much, but it's happened twice this season.

  • @jakebushlack I'm not sure about the player number issue, but everything was an issue before this patch which I and others have raised and clearly been ignored. It's just everyone noticing it more now due to manual mass subs. It's an absolute mess, EA are such a joke.
  • They could 

    A) give us an on/off switch for blowout subs

    B) give us locks in the redshirt screen for guys you don't want subbed in during blowouts

    C) MAKE IT SO REDSHIRT PLAYERS DONT SHOW UP IN THE DEPTH CHART IN GAME

    also, what happened to senior day?  In 06, I used to have to plan my redshirts around senior day, and now, it's just something the announcers mention...
