More Online Dynasty Slider Versatility
Not sure where to put this so I'm throwing it in here. After playing 100s of hours of online dynasty, I had some suggestions for the development team on what I believe to be very easy implementations that would enhance the online dynasty experience for all users.
CFP Ranking Algorithm - The process for how the CFP Rankings is calculated seem to be hidden but clearly take into consideration Team Prestige, Conference Prestige, SOS, Team OVR, and other characteristics found in each team's standings. I think it would be great to not only share the algorithm with the community but also provide sliders in the dynasty menu where you can change the weights of how much these are impacted. For example, I have found that Team Prestige and Team OVR carry more weight than Head-to-Head in many instances (I currently sit at 13-0 and #3, the #1 team is 12-1 but lost to me earlier this season). In our dynasty, it is logical that my team would be the #1 seed.
Recruiting Class - I know Madden franchise mode has had a slider in the past where the draft class can be set to be good or bad, one issue we've seen in CFP is the recruiting classes can sometimes eventually result in too many 97+ OVR teams. I think sliders for this would be great to help give the users more control on if they need a boost in OVR dynasty-wide or maybe a reset to help restrict some of these high-level recruits. I'm kind of extreme and would love to be able to dictate by state which recruits but I do understand that's probably much more of an ask but would help balance out some of the classes if teams in Texas and Florida are out recruiting some of the northern counterparts.
Couch Carousal - This game has the opportunity to make a much smoother coaching carousal than the actual one that exists in real life. You should be able to apply to any job, and it shouldn't be so restrictive with these coach pipelines limiting where you can go. If you've won a National Title and are riding an undefeated season, every job opening should have you as their #1. I also believe that coach extensions should come quicker from your own team, especially when other teams are interested in you and like how they do the NIL deals you should be able to get skill points based on the contract offers you get.
That's all I had, I do love playing this game and look forward to the updates that are always coming out. As someone who does love this game, I always am looking for ways that I believe the user experience can be better.
