Started a 33 team franchise expansion team and placed my team in Atlantic Division. While my team resides in the correct division and I was given division pre-season games, all of my regular season games are treated as if I am in the Pacific Division.
Example face pacific teams each around 4 times possibly more where Atlantic teams I face once or twice.
Community ManagerHi there. Can you get me a video of this? Please publish it through your console or put it up on YouTube and respond with a link.
Also, if you start a new Franchise save, does the same thing happen?

New franchise below in the 2nd video that I started the team in Central Division with the same result. Schedule is treating the team as if it is in Pacific Division.

Community ManagerThank you. I've relayed this to the team.
Community ManagerCan you take a screenshot of the schedule settings for your custom leagues?
It isn't a custom league it is the 33 team expansion team option. Not sure if that mode has schedule settings?
Community ManagerWe looked into this and found that this is normal behavior. When you add a 33rd team, the schedule needs to be adapted to fit them. It's created in a different way to accommodate the additional team.
I understand that the schedule would have to adjust but the majority of the games you face are set as if you are in the Pacific Division instead of the division with the 9th team.
If you are in Atlantic Division you shouldn't have ~4 games against every team in the Pacific Division and only 1-2 games against teams in the Atlantic Division.
Community ManagerAppreciate the feedback on this. I'll pass it on to the team.
