Recruits with Dreads

I am once again asking for the 3rd year in a row to add recruits with hair that comes out of their helmet in the generated recruiting classes.

    Just allow us to edit the non-nil players and the issue is solved.  The broader fix her fixes more issues than just dread hairstyles.  

  • I second this concern on player recruits! Has anyone noticed even since the 25 version the player recruit likeness has been given very little attention? For my dynasty deep divers, why are there some many recruits that look 40 years old with old men beards? Dreadlocks that don't even come past their helmets? Dark skin recruits with blond hair and beards? Not enough buzz cut or military haircut cuts for potential Air Force, Army, and Navy recruits? Few Hawaiian hairstyles, no Afro, no individual twist or plats? No enough young highschool facial features? Were is the diversity? Were is the authentic core value in this game when it comes to this? If we don't speak on it, the dev's won't remotely address it unfortunately.

    This is a sticking point for me too. You can find one in every ten classes or so, so you know the coding is there. Which almost makes it worse that they’re so rare. And it’s not only dreads, but the lack of realism in hair and facial hair overall. The inability to customize the features of recruits is borderline embarrassing for EA. It’s 2026 We should be able to tweak skin color, hair, arm size, leg size, torso, tattoos, etc. But here we are and can’t even remove the blonde business class comb over off of 5 star RB Quintavious Diggs and tattoos don’t even exist in college football apparently
