    This is what I was looking for. Any issues with this? Do you have an iPhone?

    Finally got the remote play to work on my phone and just use the onscreen controller. This would be a nice improvement.

    There’s a way to do it through PC. I don’t have it right now but I found instructions on YouTube. Multiple videos.

    No I have a z fold, which is why I got that controller in particular because it's Bluetooth. The USB-C ones have the connecter on the side that would have made my phone open the wrong way. On smaller screen/that controller/probably a slight delay in remote play, it's a little less responsive but still very playable. Most notable in run D for me, don't tackle as well. But offense plays pretty much the same. I've been impressed, it's worked better than i was expecting

    Got it, so this controller doesn’t actually attach or plug into the phone? You just connect it via Bluetooth?

    Just need to confirm my old ass phone is compatible.

    There are plenty that actually plug into your phone. That one is Bluetooth and it's held into place by the pressure of the sides. Haven't had issues with it falling out, and my phone is pretty heavy and size of almost a small tablet when unfolded

    So this OSU team is a lot better than the ratings (and previous 4 seasons record) lol

    Already 4-0 after obliterating Texas A&M, Auburn, UCLA, and @ Kansas St

    The top 4 DEs are all speed rushers with between 81 and 91 speed. This excites me. And I'm forcing 5 turnovers per game

    I’ve not kept up with the patches, per se, but if I started an offline/solo dynasty, are those impacting it? Haven’t played a ton recently to realize either way, just curious

    Yea their are some nice ones that use the USB. My problem with the z fold is almost everyone has the USB on the right side, and that would make my phone fold down which makes it sit awkwardly. Very specific problem to my phone that most wouldn't have. Looks great on the bigger screen though with the controller I got

    Won the 2031 title tonight

    Won CoY, Broyles, Heisman, PoY, DPoY, Lombardi, Best DE, Best RB, Best TE, Best LB, and Best DB

    Beat Oregon for B1CG, then again in rematch in Pasadena. Then choked the life out of UTEP in the Fiesta; they upset Kennesaw in the 5/12 game then knocked off ACC Champ FSU in qtrs

    Curb stomped Georgia for the title; 51-21

    Signed #1 class (13 fives, 11 fours; 18 top 100 kids)

    Will do offseason tomorrow. Rebuild went far faster than expected lol

    Had an amazing end to a game online. I'm up 14-7 with a little over a minute left. Opponent hits a bullshit 70 yard hail mary on a tipped pass on 4th down for a TD to go for the tie. I block his extra point and run it back to go up by 3. He gets the onside kick. The next play, he scrambles with his QB, who I drill to cause a fumble that I recover and close out the game.

    They definitely nerfed it in an update along the way but blocking kicks is pretty easy if the other team screws up on the meter.

    I do it controlling the most inside guy that has the pre snap icon over his head.

    So my recruiting has gotten even more ridiculous lol. I have 24 commits currently in week 9; 19 fives and 5 fours. 22 of 24 are top 100 players. And I still have 1 five and 1 four on the board

    Also, I've found a shortage of speed rusher DEs that are five stars. Seems to be a 4 to 1 ratio power vs speed each class

    As such, I finally started using a power rusher on my team and my god, I should have done this sooner lol. The bull rush is absurd

    won the 2033 title last night. and shockingly, my QB won the Heisman lol. he threw for over 5k with 58 TD passes and then added another 600 yards on the ground and 6 more TDs

    signed the best class I have ever put together; 20 fives, 6 fours. 4 of the fives are elite (plus an elite four star). 6 other fives are star trait. seems like a decent class; in total 24 of 26 were top 100 players. the class points rating was 291.9; a perfect class of 25 five stars is 293.25
    upload_2024-11-8_10-16-57.png

    now have the OSU roster at +60% five stars and 97% blue chip (gotta have a kicker and punter lol)

    this game just doesn't get old for me

    I haven't played in a while, but where do you see whether they're elite, star, or impact? Does this show up in scouting? Are they in descending order? How do the green gems compare?

    if in the roster view, you can click Y/triangle and go to where their physical/mental abilities are along with where you edit them

    look toward bottom of screen and it shows their trait next to their deal breaker. here's an example with Raiola. Star trait with pro potential as his deal breaker

    as for gems; gems tend to be "star" trait more often than not but can end up "elite"

    while a bust (gem with red X) typically ends up as normal trait

    the traits ranked from best to worst are Elite, Star, Impact, Normal

    for my overall recruiting, around 20% of my commits are elite, 25% star, 30% impact, and 25% normal

    here's a breakdown of my 3, 4, 5 stars signed that played at least 2 years for me and their rating peak. quite a difference between a normal and elite trait

    It's hilarious to me that so many power guys end up with higher speed ratings than speed rushers.
    Happens for physical WRs and speed WRs, too.

    and I love a physical WR lol. I put them outside with deep threats inside

    I am enjoying the power rusher now that I realized you can't use them the same as a speed rusher. also got pissed when 2 of the 3 speed rusher 5 stars for 2035 locked me out due to proximity to home while the 3rd is a bust lol

    So you don't know the trait during the recruiting process, then?

    Can regular 5 star players be elite? I would prioritize 5 then 4 star gems over regular 5 star, but I had no idea what I was doing.

    Have you found that the game seems to generate the high ranked positions of need each season?
    I don't track mine like a crazy person so this is anecdotal but I feel like it's true.

    there is a coaching ability you can buy that will give you the ability to see a trait (can't recall which one, I think it's CEO). you can see it below in bottom right corner
    [​IMG]

    yes, any 5 star can be elite. I feel like (and I don't track this) that gems more often than not are stars while elite 5 stars don't show the gem, it's more a surprise once you get to the offseason stuff

    but if I was ranking priority

    5 star elite
    5 star star
    4 star elite
    5 star impact
    4 star star
    5 star normal
    4 star impact

    that seems to be the best recruits. I try to get elite guys in my 2 deep in year 1. but my depth chart tends to be littered with star guys. below is my 2034 roster

    Offense has 3 elite, 11 stars, 6 impact and 4 normal
    Defense has 3 elite, stars, 7 impact, and 3 normal
    upload_2024-11-8_10-47-3.png

    my 2034 roster has 50 five stars; 9 are elite, 23 stars, 13 impact, 5 normal

    it does seem like the 5 stars correspond to "needs", at least 65-70% of them

    I wish the distribution was a little better, but overall I think it's decent though not great
