Coach not who i pick Overdrive Mobile

I have done every thing you said. I install on a new device and still the same problem. No mater which Coach I pick it always comes up with (Shanahan level 2) my (Shanahan is level 6). I also think that the same thing is happening with the Captain. I have 2 Samsung Tabs plus also on a android phone all act the same. The one Samsung was a total new install, Operating system and game. It worked fine yesterday morning and started doing this later in the day yesterday. 
 
 
 
  • @KG21187 Are you still affected by this issue? If so can you close the app then restart?

    I have word that a fix was rolled out, and this should be resolved now, so if folks are still affected that's something we want to gather more info on.

    Just some extra info. 

    I just noticed that, although the app shows the wrong coach/captain for overdrive, it is using the playbook and capt bonus of the ones I want to use. But for daily bonus, it uses the wrong ones

    @232aa7658a75f83c Yep, I think you're on to something with those observations. 

    We're investigating and hopefully we'll have an update soon.

    For me, I noticed on the captain bonus that although it says whatever captain you chose (i.e. Tom Brady "6x receptions to TE"), you actually work and earn whatever bonus for the captain you're stuck with (i.e. Matthew Stafford "Attempt 10 passes)

    Still having the same issue today. I gave all the information to the gentlemen I reported this to over the phone yesterday. Case number (43492019). Says it is resolved but it is not. I’m using an iPhone 7. My uid is 60521957. I have tried everything discussed on the phone call. I have deleted the app, reinstalled, shut down my phone, made sure my os is up to date, etc. still the same problem which started yesterday morning. Issue I’m having is I have selected kamara as my captain and McCarthy as my coach. When I enter a match it shows the coach is level 2 marrone, which obviously is not who I have selected and is a lower level than the marrone I have. At match completion shows both marrone and a lower level 6 ertz as my captain when I should kamara and McCarthy. Kamara is my running back in the match however he gains no points for captain bonus. If I throw the ball to my tight end which I’m using base elite cook at right end, the game acts as if Cook is kamara and gives me captain points towards the all purpose yards required for the kamara. Again, running with kamara or throwing to him out of the running back position gives no points. This also carries over into the events as the playbook changes in your events such as season battle, and plays that you would get from Marrone as you level him up are displayed not McCarthy’s unique plays that open up as you level him up. Would like this issue resolved ASAP, as those of us that are affected are losing out on the hall of fame event right now particularly the rewards. Have to play overdrive matches to get points for the hall of fame event rewards however I went from ranked in the top 500 to 4000 now every match has been lost due to no captain bonus and this glitch. I think others would agree, it would be great if the hall of fame event would get extended a couple days after this issue is resolved. 

  • I am having the same issue. EA rep I talked to told me it’s a known issue now and they are working on it. Going to post the issue here also. 

    Currently I have been using Zach Ertz as my captain and Rivera as my coach. Both show as level 15 out of OD but when I start a matchup Rivera shows up at level 10 and Ertz level 11. While in game, neither my Offensive nor defensive tactics are working. My opponents do not get any challenges when I click on them in game. Also, I tried to switch to Nagy and Shanahan for OD matchups and this happens: I have the specific coaches playbook to choose from but the tactics still show up at Rivera’s tactics and they still don’t work. I have also tried to change to different captain and coach combos and still nothing changes. I have gone through all of the trouble shooting steps suggested by EA and still nothing has changed. I hope that a fix is in the works soon. Thanks for reading. Good luck the rest of the season. Hope many improvements are on the way soon.
