Superstar Playbook Issues

It’s crazy to me that I played through a whole SUPERSTAR season to get control of the full playbook to NOT HAVE NO HUDDLE OFFENSE WORKING PROPERLY.

Not only that but why allow CUSTOM PLAYBOOKS TO BE SELECTED in ADVANCED PREGAME SETTINGS IF IM STILL STUCK USING THE HEAD COACHES DEFAULT PLAYBOOK!!!?

Please fix the no huddle offense glitch and either remove the custom playbook option from Superstar or actually ALLOW it.

All these years and EA still doesn’t have the pulse on what players of this game want from their experience. 

Also, maybe give an OFFLINE option for SUPERSTAR, real life happens so being able to save the game WHEN THE PLAYERS WANT seems fair.

 

I would say “do better” but it’s clear maybe 2K needs to make a Football game for EA to step their game up.

  • And when you change teams you still can’t use a different playbook

    Yes I demanded a trade and it's the same playbook this sucks 

  • Yep I’ve gone undefeated for 2 seasons, won 2 superbowls and they still make me use the same 25 plays regardless of what playbook I select or what team I’m on, and I’be been coach level 10 almost the whole time. I can’t get access to all the plays I love from last year, for example QB Blast, QB Wrap etc. But nothing is worse than the 14 fumbles a game for your team in snow games and 0 for the other team.

    I restarted my superstar and created a new character. It's still the same boring old playbook from my previous character. Please allow us to change playbooks in superstar!!

  • I'm playing as a Linebacker and I think my playbook keeps reverting to Bengals' one. I went to the creation center and under playbooks to "Create defense", compared it and yes, it was 100% the same as the one I was using in game.

    Is it possible we're being forced to use the playbook of the team we're playing for? I feel like yall have the SAME playbook no matter what?

    same here the playbook is so garbage that it seems like the defense knows exactly that I’m going to run it when I run it. Ea, please fix your superstar mode EA we have to do better at gaming. This is ridiculous. I’m fed up.

  • I just reported the same bug. I see you reported it 5 months ago. I doubt EA really care about this at all. They're they only company with a licence and they sell their game by adding backwards-hurdle animations and putting them in highlight videos. Not anything that any player ever actually wants (or in the case of the backwards hurdle, will ever even see). Marketing 9/10. Game 3/10. Customer focus -1/10.

  • P.S. ... I mean, I get it. And I even kinda like it. Youre the linebacker, you're not the defensive coach. So it wouldn't make sense that you define the playbook. But at very least they should disable the option to avoid player confusion/frustration.

    I would also be nice if you DC actually came up with unique playbooks. But whatever. That's kinda minor compared to appearingly allowing it and inexplicably it doesn't work.
