I was playing this game a lot right when it came out, but wasn't able to play much the last month or so.

I think dynasty is much improved. I like the player progression better, the ability to change numbers, sim logic is better but still not great, and a few other minor things. it definitely feels more polished than when it came out.

Yea I’m pleased with most of the improvements.

The cpu still seems to get super jumps on snaps sometimes and some of the time they seem to have random boost.

Also kinda annoying that going deep the cpu seems to be able to get like two steps and I very rarely can knock it down. My wr gets a few steps and cpu seems to swat it, except on my 97 speed guy blowing the top off.

I am seeing pretty good training progression and it’s cool seeing New Mexico packed

Has anyone ever had players interested in following them when you take a new job?

In all the dynasties I've run I have never once had a kid even open to, let alone interested in coming with me to the new school.

I would love to see an update where when you are taking a new job you can do something to influence your current players to follow.


Would also like to see the ability to bring your current staff with you.

Maybe I've been lucky but I've played around 50 games on road to CFP. Last night I ran into my first glitch player. I don't even know if you would call it a glitch.

UGA offensive playbook. trips to one side with 1 HB and 1 WR to the other. He immediately flips the play when they break the huddle. I'm assuming this is to declare whether I'm in zone or man, but I have a feeling it's to throw off any type of man to man angles I might have with my defenders. Motions his trip outside player out wide.

He was 16/17 for 300 and 5 TDs. There was literally nothing I could do. If I went to man to man, he had a guy open on a zig route, if I went zone he had a wheel route open with the player he motioned out.

On defense he used a custom blitz package which basically got him a free release on his outside defender.


Why do people play like that? Don't get me wrong I'm all about not using shite plays just to be fair but the same play on both offense and defense....To win a meaningless online game? I'm just trying to have fun

I played the whole game up until my GF yelled at me. I scored on my last possession and that was enough for me.

I assume ultimate team has more win-at-all-costs players, but I too have not really seen much glitch play in RTP.

Sounds like you needed to either run a blended coverage of man and zone or user one of the routes. I honestly enjoy trying to defend "money" plays.

You try slide protections or blocking TE/RB? Certain formations have them on a blue route, which is also nice to use against the blitz heavy players...

Yeah I like blending my coverages but it also leaves a lot open. I user picked him once but couldn't do anything on offense since he had a free rush every play.

He was switching/flipping his alignment at the start and motioning players. I'm good at changing coverages individually but there was no way I could do it that fast and reliable.

Looks like another update and now the camera angles are all messed up.

Like my normal camera is fine until I kick a fg then it’s super tiny

Same with my punting. The graphics are skewed to a lower angle.

They royally f-ed up the punting. On one of my punts tonight the camera was so zoomed in I couldn't see the meter.

I had to zoom the camera and then the kick off was all fricked.

Did they even test this update?

After some tik tok videos look like the kick screen is meant to be that way and it changes based on distant

I hate this POS game. It’s trash. Ultimate team is garbage and the gameplay is hitchy and retarded. Zones don’t zone and man to man literally don’t pick up their own assignment.

It’s super frustrating but I’m still going to play it. I don’t understand why my 6’5” QB can’t throw the ball to the WR on a drag route. He hits my guard or center in the back of the head every time.

I also don’t understand why I can’t ever get an offer at UNC, Wake Forest, or App St when they fire their coach.

Is there any way to “de rank” in Road to CFP? I’ve moved up a few ranks and now it’s pretty sweaty. Is there any way to go back down a level other than just intentionally losing every game?

If you don't want to intentionally lose, you can play until you unintentionally lose. That is kinda how the system is designed. To put you with a group where games are competitive, not where you can skull drag everyone. Lol

I hear your frustrations...but I can't agree with all of them. I don't have too much issue playing defense. I can make a better case of the defense plays offense better than my offense. ??

I got to all american and I only play Bama. Typically they scramble with Milton and use money plays and it's damn near impossible to stop. I dropped back to down to where people play with their favorite teams and I smash them. Kind of need a middle ground where I don't play Bama every game.

You using a tier 1 school? If not, set you search for something tier 2 or lower.

I just use LSU only. I guess people will play with what gives them the best chance to win. I'm starting to find my own money plays that are very difficult to beat. 4-0 currently in my new demoted division and none of my games have been close
