Who came up with the idea to give the QB almost no play calling power whatsoever?
why can’t we at least flip the plays?! 99% of the time I have to call a pass play with all of the routes going to the short side of the field. That’s some brilliant play calling there.
But it’s all good, because when we get enough coach trust, it allows us to unlock 2 more plays that are equally stupid.
RTG was way more fun than this back in 2014.
I agree with everything said in the original post and would add that in RTG as a HB, every time I hit Y to call my own play I get the same exact 2 plays as the other options. Every single time and I've done it dozens of times now. I've never been given any other choices but those two. I also have not ever had the ability to call an audible as a QB or HB in RTG and can only occasionally call hurry up. I assume these options become available once enough coach trust is gained but can't say for sure because there's nowhere in the game that tells you. Please add some info about what trust needs to be gained before the other options (additional plays to call, audible available, etc.) are available and give the option to flip the available plays always no matter what depth chart position/trust/etc.

No. I'm maxed out coach trust and can't audible unless I hurry up.
@M329 That's standard analytics to go for two in that situation. Doesn't mean you have to like it but that's a common strategy.
@WrathOfHades85 Michigan passing 10 times a game is the most realistic thing ever.
You can flip the plays, you just have to press right trigger before selecting it, but you do have to use a “change play” in order to do so. It should say that in the game though, I can see how it’s confusing
I’m playing as a QB for Oklahoma and the run an Air Raid offense. Just finished a game where we ran the ball 61 times and passed 18 times with at least half being RPOs and forcing the pass because I was tired of handing the ball off.
@ATerminiI know how to flip plays and it does not work in RTG as a QB. You absolutely cannot flip plays before selecting them, unless you use up one of your unlocks to open up all three plays. If you want to call the one play that is initially offered, you cannot flip the play.
The limitation on play selections is terrible. My QB has been gunning for the single game passing yards record of 700 and something. Playing Boston College I had 690 yards early in the 3rd quarter. Not a single passing play was offered for the rest of the game despite me hitting change play every single time. EA always finds a way to suck the fun out of a gaming experience.
This is the worst issue ever, totally garbage, they literally have me do the the work but when it's time to score the bench me, oddly in the CFP they keep you in during some of those moments but your 100% right, they programmed that all wrong. It is ruining my entire experience, only way I can get a touch down is if I run from the 40 or worst. I hate this logic. I ran 40 yards on a 1st down to win a game and got stopped on the 1 with 1 minute left, the took me out, I thought they would at least kick the field goal, instead the game went to overtime. 4 plays from the 1, and the star running back isn't on the field and then we don't even kick the FG to win, in the playoffs? Wtf??
