    I don't think they did very much to update the in season recruiting from 2014. Having Top 50 rated players without a single scholarship offer 10 weeks into the season might be the most unrealistic part of the game.

    You really ought to be thinking weeks and months rather than days with EA. And the new update will screw up something that used to work fine but doesn’t after the update. And thus the cycle continues.

    Nothing major will be fixed before they put out the next game then they’ll fix the problems that plagued this game and add new ones with the next

    Buying FIFA knowing it will bring me more frustration than joy is sort of my version of being a CryptoBro knowing I’ll probably lose out but still do it regardless.

    I guess since they finally found a stop for wildcat, the new cheese is to play with Bama and go five wide to do qb draw with Milroe bec the defense won't recognize he has the ball and will keep running with wr even if you're playing for run stop. Thats why I can't play online dude just try and find a glitch in order to win

    I'll be honest and say very few guys cheese a ton like that online. Some have money plays but it's easy to stop them after 3-4 times bc you know what's coming. The defense is terrible on the game so I don't think many feel the need to do cheese stuff.

    I’m back to loving the game after beating some dude 30-27 in UT after starting off down 14-0. He did the bullshit kickoff and ran stretches with McCaffrey and scrambling with Lamar until he was forced to throw it and I picked him off to seal it.

    The cheesing is way worse in UT from my experience. I don’t think it works as well in CFP because the players are better. I’ve played nearly 40 games in CFP and have ran into only a few real cheesers. Ive played about 15 in UT and face at least some BS each game except for the first few days basically.

    I’ve got Nyck Harbor third in the Heisman race and he’s threatening to transfer because of my playing style. I played the next game with another schools playbook and ran the ball slightly less and it’s all good. Honestly I should let him leave because he’s so overpowered that it makes things too easy. LSU went up by 4 with me with 20 seconds and I was like 55% sure I’d still win. He dropped the first two streak routes (which is realistic with Harbor) but alas he caught the third one without a defender even being near him.

    Ive seen other people not even recover it. You basically will start somewhere between the 4-10 if you don’t catch it. And it’s very hard to catch it. Ignore the idiot’s comment just a video I found.

    I've seen another one that kicks is straight but at a certain power and it does that. I've had a few guys try it but I click down on kickoff where there's 2 guys in the middle instead of one on each hash and they run up to get anything. Try thay return.

    Playing ohio state yesterday in my dynasty game ended with following sequence

    - Up 11 missed a fg
    - Gave up a TD where RB broke 7 tackles
    - WR stopped running his crossing route when I threw it and pass went straight to defender for pick 6
    - Took clock all the way down to 20 seconds and scored a go ahead td
    - Despite playing a prevent defense, first play the wr ran right by my entire defense and was wide open for a 81 yard td
    - I throw a hail mary with 3 seconds left that's caught and then my wr bumps into my other wr causing his animation to get stuck and not run last few yards to end zone and get tackled.

    Yea the controller is lucky to be in tact today

    I was being a Debbie Downer in this thread a few months ago. I feel both vindicated and saintly for relenting and allowing users to feel the feeling of having something to look forward to.

    Im curious how many consoles Sony and Microsoft sold specifically for this game

    Played a great game was at 24-24 with 6 minutes left. Methodical drive, run the whole clock down. On the 5 with 60 seconds to go.

    Single back, under center, call a slot screen. Guard inexplicably decides to not block the guy right in front of him, but QB goes through throwing motion anyway and chicks it backwards. Defense recovers, scoop and score. Immediately turned off the game.

    The flow of games feels scripted to me.

    Previous game, played a dog shit team, but they couldn't miss, whether it was super sim or me playing. Got down 25 points in the 3rd.

    Suddenly my receivers are breaking wide open every time, and they can't do shit...until it's tied and I'm going for the winning drive. Suddenly they can cover great again. Won anyway.

    Idk if any of you guys play Activision games but they’re effectively the same way. They won’t put out meaningful updates because they’re still making a shit ton of $ on the game so they don’t care. They’ll just put out little shit that no one asked for

    CF25 team just needs to make it two more weeks for Madden release and then their hope is 80% of people will move over to that game so the mob of people asking for a patch will be muted and they can just wait until next year to fix the issues and just update rosters and CUT for anyone left over

    it has less to do with the game and more so that it’s AAA studio that has unlimited money that could fix all of the issues if they have a fuck. They shouldn’t be applauded because they put out a decent game and refuse to fix anything

    I think the hate is warranted in a way, given the fact they worked on it for 2-3 years and in a way EA added to the hype by some of the stuff they said pre-release that ended up not working.

    I’ve been playing mostly online lately because the one OD I’m in is playing at a snail’s pace so I haven’t experienced some of the stuff people are seeing in dynasty yet.

    That said the game has been good enough (better than nothing) and sure some of the issues piss me off more often than not, but I’m still battling through it and am being entertained for the most part.

    But this has been an issue with EA going all the way back to mass effect 3, not to mention those dogshit fifa and madden games they’ve put out. These people treat gamers like they’re morons and gamers keep proving them right. They’re going to keep doing this until people actually just stop buying their product

    Yeah I think my biggest gripe isn’t so much that the game has issues, it’s what the issues are. Stuff that seems small/easy to fix, or worked good enough 10 years ago appears to be super messed up. I believe people refer to it as “QOL” items (never heard it used in the gaming context until this game came out lol)

    yeah quality of life updates that most game devs make but EA and Activision don’t. There a reason both of them have horrible reps. They can put out good games and then they just never fix them or care enough because they’re making so much $ from them
