Unless I missed it, I'm not seeing a way to increase your pipeline levels throughout a dynasty. Can anyone help me out with this?

Hey everyone, Just to provide a bit of clarity, keep in mind that the pipeline level does not change on a per-school basis. This does mean certain schools will have an advantage with their recruiting while also reflecting the difficulty this can present for smaller schools in the region. Please take a look through our Dynasty Deep Dive here for more details about pipelines and other dynasty mechanics!

Roster screens gives different pipelines than recruiting screen

I have had the same issue as well, I noticed when I look at a player individually it says it has a higher pipeline level than the area I actually have on the recruiting screen.

@hurricecil Yes, same issue for me as well... My roster screens give me waaaaay different pipelines than my recruiting screen. Random ones! Sometimes the entire state is odd and sometimes the level of the pipeline is just off.

Also, I have tried stacking all 3 coaches with New England pipeline, and I do not get any visual indicator that there is any increased benefit. It is either bugged or working as intended and we just need more info in to how this system works.

@EA_Mako Can you help me with these two issues?

Hi @Dirty_Smeegs_33,

Do you happen to have any screenshots showing the different pipelines on your roster versus the recruiting screen?

@EA_MakoI can see if I can figure out how to do that. But as UMASS, my pipelines are (silver) New England, NY, NJ, MD, VA, GA (for some weird reason) (bronze) PA, OH, MI, CA, FL…. But in my roster screen on the right hand side showing me player details I get all sorts of weird levels and pipelines. Like blue tier idaho, no New England Pipelines, and then gold pipelines for NY, NJ.

@EA_Mako I just double checked all the screenshots... not a single pipeline is correct when compared to the recruiting menus.

Also true for JMU. The pipelines shown in recruiting (which are correct) are different than ones visible on the roster screen that shows players currently on the roster. The roster screen pipelines (visible next two the players' hometown) are not even close to being correct and don't appear to match the existing pipelines of any other school.
