Why can’t you have it so the announcers say names
I like to edit names, and in many cases I’ll change it to something the announcers already say. Even if I spell it the same the announcers will never say the players name. For instance I recruited a running back who had a Asian sounding name and I changed name to Jackson which ea should have in system and they never announce his name. This was something that worked in original games but for whatever reason went out the window since 2025.August Title Update Request - Dynasty Specific
When you all do the first roster update, please please please address the useless abilities that have been assigned to a lot of the new archetypes. There are a ton that have been noted in @CallMeJaden's youtube channel and throughout the forums. Lots of cool ideas, but it seems like the planning was an afterthought. I, for one, like to wait to start my real dynasties until after the August updates before the season kicks off. I'm glad you all addressed the position switch bug as that was game breaking, but those who started dynasties already, might have been out of luck if they were far in their dynasties. Something else that needs to be addressed is the player progression bug. Right now, when set to manual, players do not earn XP during the season which means they do not level up and gain skill points. If the 25% nerf means no progression for players, that should have been clear from the beginning. The quarter length we set for dynasty should also be the length of CPU vs CPU games. The stat discrepancy from between user games and CPU games is no where to close being balanced. This also plays into deal breaker like playing styles if we simply cannot keep up with what CPU teams are doing (mainly with regards to the reception requirements for pass catchers or defensive stat totals for defenders). Allow formation subs to be compatible with custom playbooks. More than 4 offers at a time for the coaching carousel. The one from NCAA 14 was much better than this one imo.Editing gear
Can you please bring it back when editing gear and you set something on one side it will be a quick add option on the opposite side of body? It’s so annoying to go through all the options. Also the items should be better sorted like same item in all color variations together rather than randomly placed on menu. At least you did better with the helmets having only compatible face-masks shown. It’s a pain adding a sleeve or glove and then having to search for same item on opposite side.Dynasty Bugs/gameplay issues
The whole jersey tucked up under their shoulder pads is ridiculous. Nobody wears their jersey like that in a game, because its against the rules..........they might wear in in practice that way. a. 3 to 4 years into a dynasty, when starting new season, there are NEVER any 5 star guards or centers. There are never any 5 star SS either b. Despite 99 speed, players run like they are clenching their cheeks. c. despite 99 speed and a 0 threshold setting, I get walked down by slower players d. I cant run the ball in the redzone/goal line to save my life, despite have a superior OL/team, while attacking gaps or weakness of the defense. e. Amazing AI........How come when I hot route, 3 defenders will cover that hot route or WR??? Also when going into hurry up if I run a jet motion, he runs forward then sideways for a False start penalty f. Either make coaching abilities cheaper or increase the coach level. Why cap a coach at level 100 if level 100 doesn't unlock all the attributes???? I thought EA would have learned their lesson last year when coaches where capped at level 50. g. EA automatic depth chart, I guess it cant figure out its right from left or left from right. Constantly putting LT in RT or REDG in LEDG and Sam in Will position. It will switch/sub a backup 92 LT and a backup 92 RT h. Championship contender rating drops for NO REASON i. after about 10 years into dynasty...........5 star a few and far between. 4 stars everywhere though. j. I lost a 5 Star MLB to UCONN (HAHAHa) Players that you NEED......will show interest......but you can count on them being "far from home".....and guess what.......that is one of their top 3 choices..
Excessive false start penalties
I am getting false start penalties non stop if I get within 10 seconds of the play clocked ending & do a hot route & it never fails I get a false start penalty before I can snap the ball. It added 15 yards worth of penalties on to a 3rd down try in a very close game. That is very unrealistic...I was on the road at Bowling Green. I mean I wasn't even at one of the toughest places to play & that was happening. That is a bug that needs to be patched. We want realistic play & that is not realistic at all. It happened in CF25 as well but no where this much. I don't want to cut false starts off in the dynasty settings. False starts should be a part of the game, but not at Bowling Green when the stadium wasn't even into it. Needs adjusting.Dynasty Mode 26
First of all i like it i like it very much can it be better YES IS CAN BE. It play the same as if 25 but i think is a lil more faster but i know overall in updates yall can make it better.Before the season LETS US SEE THE PRE SEASON WINNERS OF THE CONFERENCE PLUS A TOP 5 OR TOP 10 TEAMS THAT PICK TO WIN THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP EVERY YEAR.PLUS WHEN ITS A BIG BIG GAME LIKE 1 vs 2 FEEL LIKE THE GAME CAN BE MORE HYPER THEN IT IS.PLUS LAST THING WE HAVE TO DO BETTER WITH THE TOP STORIES REMEMBER WHEN WE HAD SPORTS illustrated like the story hit different i need the same thing the top stories still dont hit the same just saying my opinionNeeds to be added for more life.
EA_Kent EA_Barry While gameplay is a core issue, they haven’t done enough for everything else. Recruiting is stale. The non ability to create your own recruits is laughable, considering the gateway of being to do this is just put in rtg’s player creator and put it in dynasty. It would be a step back into the right direction because of this dynasty gets really old at times with the same wash a. Repeat cycle. It’ll add a different element. Another thing is importing draft classes….. which is ridiculous because just make it to the point that you can only import players after year 5 and above in dynasty. Literally all players who are under NIL are gone. This would actually create a real life scenario and actually feed into the theme of following our recruits from college to the nfl once more. Dynasty is marginally improved, which is a problem because the advertising made it seem like it was be leaps and bounds better and in all honesty, it’s worse. Y’all don’t like repost but yet continue to not add what we are asking for. I think majority of us know in terms of gameplay, glitches and all type of animation based issues are just apart of it due to EA using frostbite as the engine, which makes that a separate issue. I’d like to think majority of us would be willing to give grace if you actually allow us to customize how we would like to. This game is TOO stale. Especially in dynasty. Equipment is still bland, recruiting is laughable considering we can’t edit appearances on the cpu generated NOR just make our own players but yet can do it on team builder??? And dynasty becomes boring after awhile because I have a bunch of great players from my recruiting classes that I would’ve LOVED to play with in madden. But yet, we can’t even import them yet.if money is all you all are trying to accomplish, YOUD have more if you actually allow these things without having to be so adamant of MUT and CUT. You’d have multiple options because by allowing what I just said above, life is actually being formed into franchise and dynasty, making an actual universe element to it. This simply isn’t gonna cut it and this needs to happen this year. Because until then, I’m not buying madden 26. And neither should anyone else if you all can’t meet us where we are at. And I’m gonna keep saying this message until y’all ban me at this point. Because influencers like Eric, Bordeux, Kurt, and many others aren’t telling the truth and keep playing in our faces when it comes to the issues of this game! Yet Ryan moody, divine, and many others get slandered for actually speaking on the core issues of the franchise and are called negative. Give us what we paid for and you all will actually receive the benefits.
No Practice in Bye Weeks?
I know in 25 there was a visual glitch where when you advanced to a bye week, practice would be gone. But to fix that you had to back out and rejoin the dynasty. This year has the same issue. I'm on a double bye (week 3/4) in my 32 user league and want to at least be able to play with my guys and get used to them/test out my custom playbook with my team. However, I haven't found a "fix" to getting practice mode available.
