Newly Added Players Have Archetypes Randomized in New Dynasties

Upon launching a new dynasty, I noticed that real players that were added in the latest title update (August 29) had their archetypes randomly assigned. Some stayed with their archetype as shown in the main menu roster, but many others changed, causing their overall ratings to drop significantly in some cases. This happened without playing any games or doing any other actions in the dynasty menus.

This only seems to happen for the new real players.  The ones that were already previously in the game are seemingly unaffected.

  • Looks like there was an update today, but this was not addressed.

    It did address the ability to edit non-NIL players numbers in dynasty though. So...progress.

    I simmed a season of dynasty, mostly just to practice recruiting, but I did find that if you can log your affected players and get to the offseason position changes screen, that you can change their position and then change them back, and it will auto select their best archetype based on their attributes.  Kinda weird this works when simply editing their positions in their player card will work sometimes but not all the time, but this may be a workaround for now if you can stomach the first season with newly added players showing wonky ratings.  This does still leave you out of luck for players not on your team, though, it would seem.

  • Ok. I was hoping this would be fixed. It started Aug 29 with the title update/roster update. Then we have a title update two weeks ago. Nothing. Then a roster update today. Still nothing. To make matters worse, they changed multiple players positions (right moves in my opinion) but somehow this now causes these players to also have their OVR drop and Archetypes change when starting a dynasty now too. To summarize, they made it worse.

    Would it be at all possible to get some confirmation that the team is at least aware of this issue?

  • This is terribly exhausting. I just wanna play the game I love without these stupid bugs. I think this product was screwed from the beginning and they just hoped the issues didn’t show until much later than they actually did. There’s no way they didn’t know any of this would happen. I literally haven’t tried to play the game in almost a month. I could understand if the bugs were minor. But player ratings dropping? That’s a huge freaking deal. At this point I’m not even looking forward to next year’s edition.

    Would it be possible if someone at EA could acknowledge that the team is aware of this issue? Thank you.
