Dynasty improvements
I need to be able to put a custom playbook with my dynasty coach so when I go into scheme in the dynasty hub it’s there for me to select it. Also the formation subs cannot happen with a custom playbook in the dynasty hub. My custom playbook needs to be reordered the way I want it it. It is completely random every time I save and I have difficulty finding what I want when I want it in time during game. We need to get simple scouting reports on our opponents week to week. If I’m year 2032 going up against TA&M I am completely in the dark as to where the off, def, and spec teams rank. What they do well, what their weaknesses are, who their star players are, what what schemes they run. It is completely unrealistic to have a dynasty and know nothing about your opps at all.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.
Recruiting Idea for 27’
Recruiting: We need dealbreakers that are less ridiculous. For example...I usually just play offense only, so I have no control over what my defense does, but I'll lose linebackers because their dealbreaker is based on how many tackles they get. For receivers, it's based on how many receptions receivers get, so if I'm not getting at least 20 catches per game for just WRs, the dealbreaker will fall, and I'll lose the recruit. It's kinda ridiculous. The dealbreakers make sense to have, but they either need to have their thresholds lowered or they need to add multiple options per recruit... For example: If a receiver has multiple dealbreakers (or maybe not call them "dealbreakers" but rather "motivations")...If he has multiple motivations, let's say 3 of them... 1. Team Receptions (Not just WR receptions) 2. Team Receiving Yards 3. Team Receiving Touchdowns Then you could take those and weigh them or use percentages. Let's say it's 33.3% per, unless we can find a 4th to add to round it out to 25%. They could make a motivation gauge for each player, and that gauge could go up or down, based on how much of each of those motivations your team is getting. This way, you could still get a recruit if you have a lot of yards and touchdowns, but don’t throw the ball 50 times per game. Another thing...They need to have coach prestige grades for each coaching position. It's so frustrating that you can win 3 championships in a row and somehow have a B- coach prestige in recruiting. Sorry, but I'll NEVER feel like that makes sense. The coaching positions need to have a breakdown similar to what I said above, but it should be like 80/10/10 (HC/OC/DC) or something like that. When recruits and media talked about Alabama when Saban was there, they didn't say..."Well, his offensive coordinator was hired elsewhere, so he's not all that prestigious anymore." It's stupid and very shortsighted.Forced Coach Retirement Bug in Long Dynasties (Affects All User Coaches)
I’ve encountered what appears to be a dynasty-level forced retirement bug affecting all user-controlled coaches, not just the coach that triggers the retirement condition. Setup / Context: Offline Dynasty Year: 2054 Two user-controlled coaches Coach A (HC) reached forced retirement threshold Coach B is in Year 5, different team (Louisiana Tech), different coach slot Expected Behavior: Only Coach A should be forced to retire. Coach B should remain active since he has not reached any age or career limits. Actual Behavior: After retiring Coach A, the game forces Coach B to retire in the same transition, even after: Transferring dynasty control and commissioner to Coach B Moving Coach B to a different school Confirming Coach B is well under any retirement threshold This suggests the forced retirement flag is being applied at the dynasty level, not the individual coach level. Impact: Long-running dynasties (30+ seasons) become effectively end-of-life Multi-coach dynasties cannot continue generational or legacy play No in-save workaround appears to exist once triggered Request: Can the team confirm: Whether there is a hard dynasty-year cap that triggers global coach retirement If forced retirement logic is intended to be per-coach or per-dynasty Whether a patch can decouple retirement logic so only the qualifying coach is affected This is not a cosmetic issue—it directly breaks long-term dynasty continuity.Dynasty Coaches should be able to choose...
One of the most frustrating aspects of the game is that if I am the best coach in the game, I still have absolutely NO SAY on where I want to coach. I am stuck with the same BS 8 offers the computer spits out each season!?!?! This is ridiculous. If i am the best coach in the country, I should AT LEAST be able to express interest in a specific coaching position. I say this specifically because the ai coaching options that are generated are basically garbage! I enjoy building a team to the point where it is unstoppable just as much as the next guy, but once it gets to that point playing the actual games becomes too easy. So I would like to be able to go back to the VERY bottom of the ladder and start over. If I am the coach at (insert power conference school here) and I have won 5 national championships in a row, I should get to CHOOSE where I go to coach. EVERY school in the country would fire their existing coach at the drop of a hat to get that guy. And I'm not even asking to give us the entire pick of the litter, but if the job is a downgrade from the current position, I should be allowed to express my interest in moving to that school. Especially if I am wanting to go to overall rated 56 Sam Houston State!!! Surely I am not the only person wanting this????If you retire too many created coaches you can't sign the contract anymore
so if you make about 15-25 created coaches then retire them, you are very likely to not be able make another one as you can edit the info but then you can't sign the contract and it permanently ruins the dynasty. you cant create another one. I think there is a limit hard coded into the game , and then I cant sign the contract anymore no more created coaches. frustratingGameplan!!!
Please bring a gameplan and practice plan in. like what madden has, so you can gameplan against your opponent. To see what their defense and offense does on certain downs. Then practice plan to boost ratings in the areas you want to attack.... ???? Is this too much to ask with madden you have shy of 40 teams but don't know the load it would be with 130+.
