Dunno, I am at work but probably NOT amazingly high as at times he does get shaken off by the QB. Dude FLIES to the ball though. My favorite thing to do with him is call a man blitz then I spread the D-line. I then walk my LB over to across the OT which occupies the OT and might give my DE (Beyer) a free shot to run back there. He often still likes to run into the OT and then go but when he goes he scooots!Quote:

I took it offline on occasion as well so that I could practice or replay a game or something like that... wish we could get it back but obviously significant changes would have to be made to limit what you can do with it.Quote:

Man I hope we can salvage this dynasty because my buddy and I are REALLY into it this year on account that we both have lost more games then any year in the past. We are entering year 5 which is about my favorite time in the dynasty because ALL MY recruits are the stars and I love that. You grow "attached" to some of your guys who STEP up in the big games and win for you when you thought it was over. I still remember my CB Quintin getting a pick when Alabama had the game SEALED up against me (same game that they knocked Denard out for the season!) and I came back and won with seconds remaining! Herbstreit really let THEM have it for throwing the ball in that situation to begin with and putting the game in jeopardy!
Other guys this year that I have grown "attached to" Jason White (my STUD 6'4" QB with wheels and wears the #1 jersey!), HB Allen Morris who won the heisman last year and was just a beast (went head to head with my buddy for him), LB Kenny Williams who stepped up as a true frosh and really helped to turn around a defense that had lost 4 out of its last 5 games (having 99 ACC helps!), DE Brennan Beyer who is electrifying at getting after the QB or even running down HBs from behind with his 91 Speed, 92 ACC, WR Paul King out of PA who I went head to head with my buddy for who has started every game on campus, 6'-4" FS Albert Hughes who is a physical specimen that I STOLE from USC and Alabama last year (he is yet to play but I never thought I would get this kid and I did and HE WILL BE A BEAST!).
And of course my guy this year's running back that I will let all of you see for yourself!
Name Height Weight Speed Acceleration Agility Awareness Stamina Injury Strength Break Tackle Elusiveness Trucking Carrying Ball Carrier Vision Stiff Arm Spin Move Juke Move
Jovan Nash 6'0" 204 lbs A A A- D- B- B D- C A- D D C- C B+ B
Any of you ever recruited a guy like that!!! Can you believe he was the #4 rated HB and #19 not overall? LOL, I can't wait to see what this guy can do!
That is a pretty sick back. I'd be running Mr. Nash about 20+ times a game :D:D
Also that DE Beyer you mentioned a couple of times. What a freak!! I'm rebuilding my 3 OD teams and I'm not even close to anyone of that caliber so I can only imagine the fun it would be to have him terrifying the backfield for me.
That would be crazy by same act of luck that you're Western or Eastern Michigan and land him as a transfer.Quote:

Fitz put up 2,700 rushing yards for me in his last year at Michigan, I have to believe that Mr. Nash will be able to SHATTER that as long as my O-line remains good.Quote:

I will attempt the quit dynasty rejoin stuff tomorrow night when my buddy gets back home and can help through this crap. He has short patience for this type of stuff so we will see how long he is even game for doing this. He gets really bitter at EA when this topic even comes up. Remember he was the guy who did NOT want the patch to even come out because we were having fun playing the game and he had a sense that the patch would break it.
heck i'm pumped i just landed this 4 star guy for my Georgia Tech team in an OD i'm in....really good looking speed back... nobody was really recruiting him, feel like a snuck in and got a star in the makingQuote:

That is a solid 4-star HB, I would recruit him even at my 6-star Michigan team. What is his AGI? I think that is an important number for backs as it enables you to break more long runs. My running style this year is to typically run between the tackles and then cut back in the face of a MLB or safety to set up that last block. If both the ACC and AGI is high, it is the difference from being caught from behind and breaking the BIG run.Quote:

I am going to have a LOT of runs to the HOUSE if my O-line is solid. The only reason I keep bringing up my O-line is the fact that for some reason my ability to bring in 4-star O-linemen has fallen off here the past 2 years. Not sure if it is because I hauled in so many in my first 2 years or not but I had better step up and land a few or Nash might not have any holes to run through!!
his agility is a B
i also just landed another HB this week... a 4 star espnu150 guy!! very solid well rounded guy who shoul dbe good down the road
we run a flex/wish BONE offense so we need a bunch of guys
i have to think that my offensive system is actually helping this year... im getting guys from MI and WV to come play in my option offense at GTech!

looks like you were in good company with OSU and Sooners right behind you! NICE GET!
ya im not afraid to compete against the big boys when i know the player is not in one of the pipeline states of if i'm starting in his top 3... otherwise i might pass and look elsewhereQuote:

Stud mobile QBs are sooooo freaking rare in this game its nuts. Check out the STUD QB in the past class that my buddy and I went head to head for but he got him. I have never seen anything like this guy! He is truly AMAZING!
Name Reggie Robinson
Position QB
Height 6'2"
Weight 201 lbs
Speed B
Agility B
Accel B+
Throw Power B-
Throw Accuracy A
I snuck in and am close to nabbing a :4star: WR for Army that no one was chasing. Amazingly after my first week of calls he jumped into the top 10, and now I'm pretty sure I'm going to get him.
yeah, we all agree this is something that needs to be addressed. its stupid how there are so many guys who are not being recruited. if by week 4 or 5 a guy has no offers and his interest meters are still super low (like they haven't moved) he is basically a FREE GET which makes zero sense. In the meantime there are teams offering and recruiting much LOWER rated talent. I have no idea what EA thinks it is emulating by doing this but its a big BUST IMO. I can pretty much land 1 5-star WR EVERY SINGLE YEAR without even recruiting one until week 5ish because there are so many of them that are ignored by all 118 CPU teams!Quote:

I never noticed it in any of my :1star: OD's because I just didn't even think of going after any :5star: recruits....I rarely even try to go after :4star: recruits either.Quote:

To do that though, you'd obviously have to transfer the commissioner duties to your buddy, then set yourself to ready since if you're the commissioner, setting yourself ready advances the week.
Just a thought and something to try.
(You may have already replied to this, but ...) No, you definitely don't need to do all players at once. I've done a player or two, backed out, completely left and turned off the game, then went back in later on and finished up. It's the same, conceptually at least, as being able to do only part of your recruiting at a time. I'm not sure how it works, technically, but the only thing I think you have to do "all at once" is play your game :)Quote:

Most of the time if I started paying attention to what looked like an "easy get", he would get a CPU scholarship offer the next week. The CPU does keep some schollies in reserve, and I think that's part of the reason.Quote:

Did you just retire and let the other guy start the dynasty?
On another note, did you guys know that the commish can edit his players ratings, but I don't think any other user can. I saw this pre-patch and kept forgetting to ask about it. I asked anotehr user in my dynasty and he said he wasn't aware of it.
That was requested, but now Post Patch 2, supposedly the commish can edit anyone's ratings, including CPUs. I haven't tested it but I also haven't heard any complaints that it doesn't work.Quote:

I shit you not, I almost broke my controller for the first time ever and if there had been someone in my living room from EA they would have swallowed my controller for sure.
So my NEW problem is HOW DO I GET MY GAME CODE to work again because it will be a cold day in HELL before I buy a new one! Anyone?
I will check back in the morning, I just spent the last 2 hours of my life FAILING with EA and that is enough.... time to spend some time with people in the real world and not swear at EA any more tonight.
I don't know about on Xbox, but on PS3, you just go back into the store and you can view your purchases that will allow you to re-download them. Just redownload the "purchase" (the system considers it a purchase even though it's free), and you should be set.
This can also be done through the console but this is the way to do it from your computer.Quote:

thanks guys, i will try this in the morning and let you know if I have any success.... at this point there is a chance that my OD is ruined.... will find out tomorrow. either way this is a total disaster and pathetic that I have to go to all this just to try to play a simple football game. Seems like the more advanced technology gets, the more EA screws everything up. Heck, I had less trouble then this playing dynasties with my buddy BEFORE ONLINE dynasties existed. We would use our computers to send the saved files back and forth which was a pain but NOT this painful!
Thanks again for your help.
I wouldn't think your OD is ruined... so long as your OD buddy is either the commissioner or still has the save file, you should be able to get back up & running.Quote:

So I did the procedure that bdoughty wrote out above and I recovered my code..... however, when I went back into the dynasty and added a single player to my list... TRANSFER FAILED once again, forces me OUT of dynasty!!!! WOW, so totally deleting everything about the game and clearing my cache didn't fix it. Got to hand it to EA, their bugs are totally FIX PROOF!!! LOL! Well there goes another 30 minutes of my life in total frustration.
Thanks everyone here for your help. You are all about 1000 times more helpful then EA.
