NOT A PRO FOOTBALLER
Ok, so, I'm not a professional footballer. I want that to be on the record first. I love the game, and will play whatever game you put out. That being said, i just read a comment about an 8 year old playing and not understanding the technical aspects of the game. That's kind of what I am. Granted I understand it a little more than an 8 year old, but still no real coach or pro at it. I simply love the game. You are making this entirely to difficult for the average player. I play it to have fun, and that has completely went away from the first years that I started playing it. I've tried every part of the game, from Dynasty, to team building and I have found that I'm most fond of RTG. I think it's because of the individual aspects of it. There are several things in every year that I've played that keep coming back time and time again that needs to change. First is the practice aspect of the game. The practice needs to have the same camara angles the weekly games have. I play with the camera facing the offense when I play defense. More like a first person view. I like to actually be looking at what im going after in a way that is realistic. I have stopped practicing because the only view there is is a way I don't actually play. Add the same views that can be played in an actual game to the practice field. Next is the tackling. During a game, I can be the only person who tackles we'll say a running back, and when I hit him and he's pushed into another member of my team, it's counted as an assisted tackle. 80% of my gameplay is defense mind you. Next I want to give you a compliment. This year I love the offsides part. It actually feels more like a real game. Now for the parts that you took away from the gameplay. The arca types. I feel a person who is really (in real life) wants to be a football player picks what kind of player he wants to be will start early in life. I know that when I played high school I wanted to be a running back so that's what I focused on. I know you've somewhat put that in by way of the custom builds where the arca type is pre-built, but I want it more individual, not the pre-built. I know there are players who take this serious and I know there are others like me who simply play for the joy of it. That being said, you need to cater to all of us and not simply the ones who are serious players. I read a lot of the comments in the forum about RTG, and I've seen a lot of comments about the starting and bench of a 5 star athlete. Like I said, I'm not a professional, but I know enough to know that a 5 star athlete is better than a walk-on and would have a better chance at starting than sitting on the bench. I understand the red-shirt part, also. Now, this has all been leading to the fact that your progression part of this game has taken a step backwards. I tried the high school mode once in this years version, and to be honest not a fan of this years. One thing I took from the one time I did play it was the high school coach said I might have to go to a smaller school to build experience before going to the school I really want to play for. I did and it worked. But, on other play throughs, I tried it and found that as a player being benched there is absolutely no possibility of me ever going to play at all. The amount of experience you gain through practice, (which as a player on the bench is the only XP you get) you will never get enough to overtake any of the players above you. I didn't buy this game to sit on the bench and with your progression aspect of the game, I would never play a snap of a real game. I've read the comments about the cap breakers, and I've voiced my concerns regarding it as well. So this is where I'm going to end this post. I've said this before about 25, and 26, so here goes. I'm a welder by trade. Each weld I make is inspected for quality. That being said, you are making a product just like I am, and it should be held to a standard. I've only recently (the last 3 years) become a daily player. I spend hard earned money on your product and just like the people who buy the products that I weld, deserve to be given a product that is quality. I feel like we (the people who buy you game) are being given a product that is less than quantity and more of a product that is simply putting money in your pocket. As a production welder, I realize that things slip through the cracks and you can't catch everything. But the parts of this franchise that should be caught through testing are basic things. Such as on every game since I started playing on the 25 game, on a lot of 4th down attempts for the other team, they don't get the play off in time when they have the ball at the end of the 3rd quarter into the 4th quarter. That seams to me as an easy fix. Not that it's a huge deal, just very annoying. I guess what I'm saying or asking, is do you have a testing, or quality control, and if you do, they need to be a little more detail oriented, and if you don't you need one.
Coach Level Cap
Please add a recruit creator for dynasty. We had the ability to do this since clear back in ‘05. It makes dynasty so much better. Please allow me to turn off the coaching cap. It is extremely restrictive. With the current skill cap, I am only able max out one branch of development with the points allowed. I would love to go slowly, building my coach from the bottom up. But it is aggravating to have to wait until I’ve fully maxed out my coach before I can finally go through and do extensive math to figure out which are the best possible selections. I want to move forward like an RPG, slowly building and upgrading my coach with every passing grind of a season. With the concession of taking away micro transactions, not allowing me to fully upgrade my coach makes no sense anymore. Maybe in online dynasties it makes a little sense. But I don’t think it would make much difference even there. In offline dynasty though, where I am just wanting to enjoy the game on my own? Where I want to build the world how I see fit? It doesn’t make sense in the slightest. You took away microtransactions, but I would happily pay extra for this ability. I know I am one of the few who would pay extra, but I have been asking for this for three years. Every year, I am confused and frustrated that this is such an issue. I just want to play the game how I want to play the game. Why is that so wrong?What do you have to do to get a coach fired?
I fully understand that Arkansas is FAR from an elite program. I wouldn't even classify them as a below par mediocre program at this point. I recently started a dynasty with North Carolina. I chose their Offensive Coordinator for personal reasons. During my sim, I literally won the National Championship 10 years in a row at North Carolina. I was hoping that sometime during that span that I would be able to bring this certain coach back to Arkansas and build that program. For 10 years, I FORCED Arkansas to lose every single game on their schedule, including the FCS programs if they played them. Arkansas goes 0-120 in 10 years. Coach Ryan Silverfish (my nickname for him) is still the head coach of that program. He's been on the hot seat with 0% chance of job security since the end of season 1. Even schools like Arkansas wouldn't put up with losing like that after year 3 or 4, much less 10 years of it. Is this a bug? I hope it is and it gets fixed here soon. So far, I'm loving this game.RTG Sucks!
First off, I’m a casual. I just want to play my way….right? Anyways. For a game being so involved in what the players/community want, a “missed mark” is beyond exaggeration. Basically throttling us in our progression is disgusting. I want to play for top tier schools. I barely make roster on 1 or 2 star schools if I’m REALLY lucky. This goes for RB, FS and EDGE, as a 5 star recruit! I don’t want every RTG save to be “hey, let’s have this dude start off rip”, but id sure like to have a chance my freshman year. And guess what provides that???? Thats right people, xp sliders. I’m sick of committing to a school out of high school and getting absolutely no playing time. thanks for coming to my TED talk.Transaction error glitch
Every time I go into road to glory a error message pops up and takes me to the upgrade screen and every time I exit out of it another error message pops up about my previous purchase being interrupted but I never attempted a purchase and takes me back to where I was and the cycle repeats over and over I’ve tried to restart the game and my console even delete it and redownload it and none has worked I think it’s because I accidentally clicked to make a micro transaction and back out of it and it’s been doing ever since.
No merged auction blocks Missing key pc features Stop being so money hungry
The excuse that yall can’t merge the auction blocks is sickening for cfb and madden. When EA FC 26 and previous titles respect the consumer and merge them. It is sickening how money hungry u guys are getting. I can’t upgrade any of my cards because there are no cards up and when they are. The most ludicrous prices. No pc features set we have begged for has been respected. No native upscaling or frame gen. Nothing…0 respect for for pc and yall keep saying that it’s an even playing field. Instead you guys are just being money hungry…barely any coin packs that give anything good. It’s disgusting how money hungry a company can be. If ur gonna be like this than at least have the decency to give us native upscaling and frame gen. Which is already in the exe because it’s used in console for the pro models. I have literally never seen so much nonsense in my life. We don’t even have anti lag or the nvidia counterpart which again is in the console game. Y’all are beyond money hungry and it’s pathetic.
Road to Glory Player Upgrade Currency Feedback
I had no Idea they made changes to upgrade your player. So I messed up my first edge build So I created another thinking I'll jus buy virtual currency to get him back to an 80 overall, so I didn't have to waste all that time... Well now I have 5k currency and cannot use it to upgrade my player.... Now I'm stuck looking at cash I can't use and I only play RTG what can I do? Bring back the ""OPTION"" to upgrade... If ppl can't afford to or chose not to Pay then NO worries that's YOUR CHOICE... Now I'm stuck with VC on this game I CANT USE (cm edited title for vis)
Coach Mode Cadence(fake snap) & pre-snap penalties missing
I'm in my third year of coach mode offense only and noticed I never see false starts, nor offsides on the defense. My offense snaps the ball on 1 every single play. Am I dumb to let this ruin my immersion and fun a lil bit, or can I do something to fix this? I tried using auto snap, the CPU takes forever to snap the ball and I did not notice different results.Ineligible Receiver Downfield - XBox X Series
The ineligible receiver slider is on in the main menu, but it is not applying to dynasty slider. I play All American. How I set the sliders for gameplay, I go to the main menu settings, set my penalty sliders. Then I go into my dynasty team and go to settings and upload all sliders and all other settings. Note, in this setting ineligible receiver sliders is not available or hidden. Then I check that all my settings uploaded correctly then start my dynasty game. In the game mode I go to options, settings, then penalties and Ineligible Receiver slider is off. In dynasty gameplay you cannot modify penalty sliders or any other settings. Please help with fixing this issue. Thanks!
