I’m fine with many aspects of the game including gameplay but I can’t keep playing dynasty. I keep losing recruits because I can’t have them visit even though I’m in their top five! I’m also frustrated with job offers or the lack there off. I’m an A prestige coach who has won 3 conference titles and made 3 playoff appearances at a Group of 5 school. All that and no new school is interested?! Also, why would I have to leave a playoff team to get a new job? I get that it is accurate that coaches leave before bowl games but I liked in NCAA that you could accept the jobs after bowl games. It would be cool if you could accept a job but finish the bowls. Dynasty is the mode I love most but I can’t stand these issues. Please EA, patch these issues!

The fact that you cannot edit the appearance, rating, or even number of generic players is frustrating. I partially understand this being in place for players that are actually in the game (even then, it’s all fiction so I don’t understand why it matters so long as EA maintains their official ratings as the default), but not being able to edit players that are completely made up is crazy. This is one of the primary draws for game modes like NBA 2K’s Era’s mode, EA FC’s Manager mode, and Madden’s Franchise mode. You should be able to fully customize your roster and edit the look/overall of a generic player, and you cannot do that in this game, which I feel takes away from the immersion.

I have figured out recruiting for the most part. Have had 3 straight top-5 classes at a place that has never had a class inside the top 20. In my current season, it’s week 6 and I have six 5-star’s signed and five 4-star’s. In 1st place on 11 other 4-stars.I can potentially help you with that aspect, if you’re struggling! Let me know the details if so.

I agree and wish they had that option but I can live with it. The lack of job opportunities and the recruiting issues are bigger issues for me.

@Timberwolvesx Yes, please tell me how you get recruits to sign with the visiting bug.

@Sgoforth5 I encounter this bug maybe once or twice a cycle, once I see it I just remove the prospect from my board and forget he existed. Move on to the next guy and don’t waste the points. I’ve signed 3 straight T3 classes with USF, just add top 10-15 players and fully scout immediately. Remove busts if you want but I’ve signed 4* busts with higher OVR than 5*s. For the top 10-15 priority guys I assign full points until I start to pull away or have multiple players at one position where I wouldn’t be too hurt to lose one. Send pitches, visits as soon as possible. More often than not you can find the right hard sell with just two green checks present. Once these guys start to commit, you’ll have those points come back in future weeks. Use that to go after depth and any 3/4* that have no offers, you can usually steal these guys pretty easy. Before you know it you’ll look and have 25-30 guys signed easy on early signing day, before adding best available from the portal which usually just end up being depth (depends on class, i’ve picked up FR transfers that have been 3 year starters) if your team is 85+ OVR.Major points:Good hard sell and good visit are worth at least 1.5/2x a Send The House.Don’t waste your time with blocking TE archetypes. They end up being 90 OVR with 45 CTH and drop everything.Physical WR, Power RB with 90+ SPD are OP. OL/DL positions are easily interchangeable.Don’t waste your time with DBs who have playing style deal breakers, you’ll never get enough INTs to keep them happy.Everything is about the offers, a scholarship offer and a few hours assigned will get you fast signings if there is no interest from other teams.Start with a decent team in a decent conference to help you learn how all of this works without getting frustrated at missing out on talent to prestigious schools. In my USF save I lost a lot of talent to UF and Miami early on, now I own FL.

@VOLSROCK1429 Thank you. I’ll put in another season and hope for a better offer next year. Still hope they fix the recruit visit issue.

Honestly I would just take a job before the playoffs next season. Not getting to finish it out with your current team sucks and should be a no brainer addition (along with about 50 other things) but it’s probably more realistic the other way, if that’s something you care about.
But 3 straight (or 4 now?) bowl appearances is impressive for a G5 school. What school did you start at? You ever thought about giving them a chance in a P5 conference after the consistent success?

Yeah man, throw them in the ACC or something. If a lower level school did that in real life they would’ve been invited to a bigger conference by now, they’d no doubt be bringing in an enough revenue to justify it.

If the visit option is locked out try removing the player from your board and readding him right away.. This works for me 9/10 times.

Coaching carousel starts after conference championship week. And is done before the natty title game. If you’re waiting until after bowl season, its too late

@Timberwolvesx I can confirm as a Boise State fan that, alas, this doesn't happen in real life for all of us.

Fair, but it’s also in Boise, Idaho. There is one major conference out there. If this current conference madness was going on back when Boise was a top 25 regular, I think it would’ve happened.

Got a question about commitments, been looking for the answer all over and can’t find anything.

i haven’t figured out the correlation between when two (or more) teams tie in the same week on a commit. What’s the tiebreaker? Seems like im always on the losing end of these and don’t know why. Some clarification would be appreciated.
