EA College Football 27 Features

I'm in an online dynasty with 7 friends.  It goes without saying, some of us are better at the game than others.  We were talking about how a "coach mode" would change up the dynasty now and then.  Let us sit back, call the plays, watch our school run them as the CPU would.  It would be an entertaining change of pace, let us yell at the AI together.

I doubt EA will see this, but with North Dakota State University joining the Mountain West, I would LOVE to see them acknowledge the generational run they had in the FCS and include their traditions. For their entrance pre-game, I would like to see them do the Thunderstruck entrance with the lights dimmed/off at the FargoDome, and show their championship banners as they do for other schools. NDSU also has a tradition at the end of the third quarter going into the fourth quarter, where the players and fans hold up four fingers signifying the transition into the final quarter of the game. Probably a heavy ask, but I feel like these could drive them as a popular choice (which they already will be) and signify the importance of them making the jump up to the FBS from the FCS. Let me know your thoughts, and let's get this seen by EA.

This is something EA has to address in matchmaking. No one should have to play the same 4-5 teams in a season. I could see 2 ... maybe 3 times but playing the top SEC/Big Ten schools get old quickly. 

Returning to the way abilities worked in 25 would help. That would make more teams viable to use and less desire to use just the top tier teams (aka OSU, Indiana now, Miami now)

Bottom line, gaming shouldn't be frustrating, it should be enjoyable and right now, Road To CFP needs improvement desperately.

Note: shared my same post from other thread (CFB 27 Wish List / Suggestions For Dynasty & Presentation).

Why is no one talking about pipelines? This system really needs a revamp, and it wouldn’t take much to make it better.

What if any state could become one of your top 10 pipelines, but you actually had to earn it? Each state would have requirements, with high-competition states like Texas, Florida, and California being harder to unlock (ex: one 5-star and four 4-stars). Smaller states with less talent would have easier requirements.

Once you earn a pipeline, you don’t necessarily keep it forever. There should be maintenance requirements over time. Recruit well and that pipeline gets stronger (ranked 1–5). Slack off and it becomes at risk of being lost.

This would make pipelines dynamic and strategic: do you focus on dominating a few big states, or spread out and manage up to all 10 if you’re good enough?

I want them to implement a customizable post-season for Dynasty Mode. Since it's what everybody is talking about, anyway, let us experiment:

- size of playoff, or go back to BCS format

- qualifiers for playoff games

- start date of season, schedule of playoff games, eliminate bowl games or make them playoff games or play-in games for the playoff

- let us try out:

-- the format Josh Pate just suggested (Thanksgiving Weekend being conference championships and bowl games for non-conference champions to get a 13th game) 

-- or what Joel Klatt suggested (conferences have play in games on conference championship weekend with the conference's 3 vs 6 and 4 vs 5)

-- or giving the Group of 6 their own separate playoff alongside the Power 4 playoff

While we're at it, add the ability to customize the league altogether. Think the Power 4 should break off from other conferences and form their own league? Want to add a Division 2 team to the FBS?

And one more thing: have some sort of weekly recap for how top 25 or other conference teams are doing. I listen to a ton of football podcasts and I like knowing the landscape of the sport while I follow my team. Let me do that in the video game, too.

I think a custom Teambuilder team should be able to copy traits from an existing team. Like Fight Songs, etc. I created new Army and Navy Teams so I could create custom rosters.  I would be nice to Transfer the Real Army Navy fight songs and Cheerleader logos and sounds to the Teambuilder School. Right now CFB 26 refers to my Navy team as Away team or Home Team. And the End zone logos do not display in Bowl games or championship games....In NHL 26 in game play will anounce the Names on the custom teams

You can’t create teams in Offline Dynasties?

PREACH MY BROTHER PREACH!!!!!

BEFORE EA adds any new feature, formation, ability or anything of that nature….

FIRST & FOREMOST fix the gameplay and properly code the offensive line defensive coverages.

PLEASE
