When I see routes with double breaks I just assume that's their version of comic relief. Even with prefect slide protections something like the comeback route is probably gong to take too long. i do maybe two PA passes per game because it’s usually just a 12 yard loss whenever i call one.
August 16, 20241 yr When I win the lottery. I'm gonna Jay and Silent Bob these little fuckers. Are you smu_deeznuts69? And kick them in the nuts.

They then start playing 4-4 and blitz everyone and throw a fit when I throw slants. They call me every name in the book that has to do with females and there anatomy. I guess it’s more manly to go no huddle and pass every play which I find hilarious in that logic. Just tell them that they need to play better.

Then resume, then as soon as the screen comes back you hit start twice really quick and it will give you a menu to mute.

August 19, 20241 yr i’m playing against a&m in game 10 and 10/10 games have been day games. ea is so predictably lazy.
August 19, 20241 yr That's another feature I hate-- not being able to adjust game times or weather. I've literally never played a night game and every 3rd game or so is raining.

About to buy but I’ve got mixed reviews on the S. This can be confusing, just to check....do you mean the Xbox Series S/X? There is also the older "Xbox One S" that this game WILL NOT work on. The Series S is plenty for this game. That is what I use and it is FAST. Can even play on my iPhone if I so choose.
August 19, 20241 yr I've been playing this since it came out, mostly dynasty mode. Few more things I wonder about: 1. Why can't I set my team as "pass heavy" or "more run". The old one had the slider that let you go 80% passing or running and the opposite. This one does not. I've tried the diff playbooks etc, but it doesn't really matter when simming games. Just weird to me. 2. QUESTION: How do the coordinators "work with" the head coach? Do I want coordinators who match my head coach's styles? (If head coach is a "Spread" coach, do I want my OC to be "Spread" as well? Does it matter?) 3. I still like playing the game but it is def frustrating to me the lack of customizable stuff. (ex: recruit names, numbers, skin color) I cannot STAND having a CB named Shabazz Awesome (or whatever) and he is a 6'1" white kid with 98 speed.

August 20, 20241 yr God I suck at recruiting, year 4 and it’s starting to bite me in the ass. WR can’t catch a damn thing

August 20, 20241 yr i’m 10-0, i’m manic and can’t sleep so i’ve been playing the game all night, my last four games have been against crap teams and have been easy wins so my main focus is on recruiting (which again is needlessly complicated and fickle) so i’d like to sim my game against tennessee who is 5-4. well guess what? just like the last iteration of this game that i played, and just like every iteration of fifa ever, the game is scripted, and it has decided that i simply cannot beat tennessee. i’ve simmed it five times, i’ve lost five times. i keep having to back out if the game and then start it up again, and now i’m just going to play the stupid fucking game which i’ll probably win 50-0 any god damn way. why do they put this in the game? seriously, what is the fucking point of programming this into every single game that EA makes?
August 20, 20241 yr why is it so hard to make a football game that’s just fun to sit down and play? a game where the ratings and different skill levels matter and are taken into account? a game that even attempts to mimic actual human movement? a game that plays out fairly, where you you have your fair share of ups and downs, it at the end of the day the talent + play calling + execution is what wins out? why can’t EA make a sports game like that? btw, does anyone experience this: seems like 25% of the time the cpu scores against me it’s after a sustained drive with multiple first downs, while the other 75% of the time it’s just 1 play, 80 yard drives and pick 6’s. either a one-step drop on a scripted pass/catch for a TD, or a long run where my entire defense blocks itself, but nothing that ever feels authentic or unscripted. 3/4 of the time anyway. shit is stupid.
August 20, 20241 yr i like how they’ve decided to abandon the coin toss and just tell you whether you’re kicking off or not, but they still ask you if you want to accept that personal foul roughing call on that fourth down you just failed to convert. ea devs just begging for you to butterfinger that shit and decline it lol.

You can choose preference in game strategy on whether to receive or kick if you win the toss. It’s stupid you can’t change it on a game to game basis though. Recruiting is beyond fucked. Dev traits are completely random and almost meaningless when it comes to actual progression. You can’t track how much your player improves year to year, their weights always stay the same all 4 years (they were dynamic in NCAA 14) and holy shit the jersey # thing is terrible. O-lineman with single digits and my QB wears #20 like he’s Mike Winchell or something. Can’t edit any of it.
August 20, 20241 yr comparing the customizable features of mlb the show (the other sports game that i mainly play) to any EA game is just insane. there’s almost nothing that i can’t easily and intuitively edit on mlb the show. it’s almost as if they want me to enjoy playing the game. Edited August 20, 20241 yr by Derka
August 20, 20241 yr Not sure if its already been asked, but does anyone know of the missing players on the Texas roster will be added at a later date? I'm assuming they didn't sign the NIL deal early enough, but I don't know shit about fuck, so...
August 20, 20241 yr look at this asinine top 25 poll: In mine, Texas Tech, Oregon, Clemson, and Charlotte were always on top.
August 20, 20241 yr yeah tech was in the national title game last year on my dynasty. and it’s not just the teams, it’s the records. 7-5 tcu and 8-4 rice are in the top 25? 2-loss utsa is #8 in the country? 8-4 nebraska is in the top 10? 8-4 utah is just outside? typical ea and 100% what we all should have expected from this game.

August 20, 20241 yr after allllllllll of that wait, here is what EA gives you: the no.1 team in the country is the 5 seed in the playoffs; no.19 team, a 3-loss sdsu gets a bye; 8-4 miami is the 3 seed; Texas went 12-0 then lost to UGA in the sec title game and is the 9 seed, playing against the 8 seeded, 2-loss UTSA roadrunners; 12-1 clemson is the 6 seed vs 2-loss charlotte; 8-4 nebraska is no.7 in country; 10-3 oregon is ahead of 11-1 tosu and 12-1 texas; and on and on and on and on. this is the game that everyone kept jerking themselves over, as if we all didn’t know exactly how goddamn stupid and insulting it would be, just like every single EA game ever made. i got this game because every dumbass i knew went into a fever pitch over the re cuál of this shittastic game made by the worst company on the world, and i figured, “way as we’ll get if everyone else is gonna be playing it.” well, i’m only slightly less stupid than the rest of you dumbasses who got all excited about this game coming back. y’all; it’s EA. it’s going to be a dumpster fire that insults and demeans the people who buy it. for the love of god, please do not buy the next version of this giant middle finger of a game.

My strategy is if I’m not in the top 3 or 5 by second or third week then move on from that recruit.

August 20, 20241 yr Idk about this game, I mean I’m happy it’s back and I’m pumped to play it but it just feels soul less. For all the time they spent on presentation once you’ve seen it once you just skip it. They should have spent more time in the nuts and bolts of the game and not window dressing unimportant shit. Too many bugs, tackling in the open field is fucking impossible, I’m sure I just got old but sometimes the computer just blankets every route throughout the whole game. Just feels very clunky and dynasty feels like a hassle. God forbid if I ever tried ultimate team

They don't have a fucking clue what they are doing. NFL2K1 is a better football game than EA has released in the past 25 years.
August 20, 20241 yr It would be fun to watch some of these routes develop but EA said nah so a left tackle could just watch an end run right next them untouched. And every DT is apparently aaron donald. The ratings don't matter. A 70 overall dt will merc the shit out of a 95 guard just because the animation dictates it. There are almost too many flaws to list but the laziest one is that they fucked up scheduling in dynasty. If you schedule fun non con games it usually results in extrapolated fuckery for the entire schedule. I see teams that only play 4 games the entire season. Teams that play me and another team in the same week. Michigan hasn't played OSU once in the third season of my dynasty. Imagine not being able to program schedules on 5th generation consoles. "There's no way you guys would fail to program a day planner in 2024, right? Oh, that's too lofty of an expectation? Cool."
