Yeah, I've already had that problem with my Navy dynasty. I had it set up with 6 home/6 away when I made my schedule. Now that I'm in season, I notice that my 4th game against Houston is scheduled as a home game, when it was supposed to be an away game. I also had problems at first during pre-season while trying to customize my schedule with 2 or 3 games constantly switching from home or away to the other when I'd back out of the custom schedules and save the schedule changes.
So it sounds like it's definitely an independent school issue. That really sucks...
Have you found any workaround? Between this and the BS Bowl invite, I'm getting very irritated with this Dynasty.Quote:

It's hard to look for holes in the line and find who to juke, truck, spin around, when everyone's wearing the same color! LOL!
Pig, if you wouldn't mind, load up a Dynasty with LSU and see if their weekly practices have the same problem. I would assume they do.
We'll do. I'll let ya know tonight.Quote:

Having a problem with syncing up with players online and in the online dynasty:
This is happening to more and more people. I had a friend the other night that I couldn't connect up to play our OD game. We tried for 2.5hrs before we got connected. We both turned our headsets on and meet in the lobby, then I invited him to play, it loaded we ran a few plays each, went back to the OD and tried again with headsets on, couldn't connect, we backed out, turned off headsets and invited him again, boom it worked and we got our game in that we started trying around 10pm. We finished at 1:45am. Big thanks to Gschwendt.
Having said that though, Escobar and myself tried to play a EAGCCS game yesterday and it wouldn't sync up giving us the same exact message. We tried about 10 times and gave up. Escobar stated that he is having this issue quite a bit.
I know this is such a broad message with different details for everyone I'm sure, but if we could pass this information onto EA that would be great.
Stadium Sounds is a little iffy. 2 of my 10 home games have had no Sounds trigger and so the default Sounds are replaced by silence. Also, there are times where the game lags and then a loud "pop" sound precedes the onset of the Stadium Sound.
I just had this happen exactly the way you describe in an online dynasty game. Had to restart the game as no one could pick up the ball.Quote:

I had an issue with my Road To Glory QB where I was on Georgia Tech and was doing hurry up on the offensive side of the ball with a FB Speed Option play and no matter which direction I changed the play to be (one of the few option plays where you can decide which direction to run the ball in) it would show the art as going the other direction but when I snapped the ball the play was going the original direction. Happened twice in a row. Unfortunately, I don't remember what formation it was exactly and I haven't tested it out in a normal game to see if it's the same issue, but with Road To Glory you can only choose the same play you just ran (since it calls the plays for you) and for some reason I couldn't change the direction of that option play.
Every player in Dynasty, when scheduling them for a visit, reacts along the lines of "Why didn't you schedule this last week?". I don't think it actually has an effect on gameplay, but in terms of user feedback, it's getting really old really quick.
I have absolutely no clue what just happened ...
I had a player on my board that I was #1 on, with a fairly sizeable lead. He had just turned "Ready" in Week 13. I had already offered scholarship many, many weeks ago.
I clicked on him, chose 6 topics, and hit X to do it manually. The Call Summary screen instantly came up, it had one topic "Offered scholarship and he committed! +5000". The logo in the top left corner of the screen (by his picture) was not my school's, but Air Force's.
He does show up on my board as a Hard Commit, but I have no clue what just happened.
EDIT: The call also cost me only 10 minutes.
I've seen that quite a few times as well, similar scenario. No clue why it happens that way but I think it's intended as a mid-week commit.Quote:

When the play actually loads, the "primary" receiver, is, in fact, the HB blocking in the backfield. So none of the four routes are designated primary. Not a problem for a human, though I'm not sure how the CPU would handle the play.
If a team (i.e. Teambuilder) has Black as their primary color, the state highlight on the Pipeline States map is the same color as the background. Except for the change in the bottom left corner (Top 3 Prospects from ...), there's no indication you're moving around the map.
Occasionally depth of field for replays gets totally screwed up. And once it messes up, it doesn't return. The other day I had a game where all of the post-game photos that were taken were blurry because Depth of Field was wrong. Now it's somehow gotten set wrong in the 2nd quarter of my game. The last five consecutive post-play cutscenes have been one massive blur.
Thankfully, gameplay is unaffected.
I've seen that a handful of times too, Jeff. Fortunately, it's returned each time except one for me. Usually after 5-10 plays.
In Recruiting sometime the point totals do not add up correctly.
For example, I just earned 41 points when pitching Campus Lifestyle plus 9 points for a Pipeline Bonus. However, after the call it shows that being +51 and not +50. When this happens, it's always one point off either way. In the same phone call, I earned +67 and +16 Pipeline Bonus (I don't remember what pitch), but was only given +82 when it should have been +83.
On another call, +51 and +12 Pipeline gave +64 on Television Exposure.
I wanna touch on a few things with statistics.
The only way to view a kickers longest FG is in his player card. Therefore, you can't sort every kicker by longest FG. So, in order to know who kicked the longest FG, you'd have to click on each kicker's player card individually.
In the player card (which is the only data that carries over year to year), FG and PAT% is listed as "0.7" instead of ".783". That needs fixing.
Sometimes players stat averages (ie yards per catch) vary by .1 between Season Stats and the players card.
I'd like to see team stat rankings listed as per game averages instead of raw totals. In the game previews, it'd be more useful in case teams have played an uneven amount of games.
All of these things have been this way since the move to next gen.
When you highlight a game on the upcoming week's schedule and press the "Help" button (Select button on PS3), you get this message: "Only televised games will have the three-man ESPN commentary crew of Nessler, Herbstreit, and Corso."
Oops.
Also, I'm 8-3 and ranked #11 in the BCS in season 2 with Notre Dame and I am projected to go to the GMAC Bowl AGAIN. I'm beginning to think that ND will always go to the GMAC Bowl if they fall short of reaching a BCS game. Grrr.
Just had a major bug/flaw.
With the Auburn playbook, either of their wildcat formations, you can't make ANY changes beyond that play nor can you audible out of the play or do any formation audibles at all. Once you choose one of those wildcat plays, you're stuck with it no matter what.
Now, I'm not sure if formation audibles had something to do with it (I did make some changes) and I haven't tested it in practice, but I was playing an offline dynasty game and wasn't able to change the play at all if a choose a wildcat formation play.
I've noticed that too. It seems to happen pretty often, but I haven't noticed any particular pattern to it. But yeah, it's always 1 point either way. Doubt it affects things much.Quote:

My assumption is that the bonus is calculated perhaps just under 25%, but the initial display uses a ROUND_DOWN() method and shows +9.
Shouldn't be the case in Wildcat Spread (or at least it wasn't in NCAA '10), but in NCAA '10 that was the case for regular Wildcat. Has nothing to do with formation audibles, I believe it's by design.Quote:

Sadly, I was doing it on the very first recruiting call I made on the game. I needed to know what the bonus was.Quote:

Yeah, now that you've pointed it out, I feel like an ass for not noticing just how simple it was.Quote:

It's definitely the case in both Wildcat formations.Quote:

Took me awhile to figure this one out but during the cut scene where the two players jump and chest bump one another I kept seeing this #36 guy (named Gordon). I didn't think much of it but I knew I had no starter #36. Well, I saw him 4-5 times today so finally I checked it out.... not only is he not a starter, BUT I have no #36 (Gordon) on my team. Who is this guy???
I do not believe it was purposeful that you couldn't even use Formation Audibles. Wildcat Spread, on '10, would at least let you use Formation Audibles.Quote:

On the Online Dynasty website, Run Block Strength ratings are listed as "Run Block Foot Strength".
If a cutscene event (or a replay) happens while a CPU No Huddle team is on offense, and they're trying to run No Huddle, then the game will return to the playcall screen. You'll pick your defensive play, then the No Huddle defense screen will pop up, defaulting to the play you just picked. But after you pick your play, you're locked into the default defensive player for that formation (you can't change players), and no other pre-play button presses appear to have any effect. Once the ball is snapped, control is restored.
It may be odd, but I kind of like the field goal kicking camera issue. It makes kicking field goals more interesting.
My sucky kicker makes FG kicking interesting enough.
I played Colorado today and needed a 44-yarder on the final play to avoid overtime. The camera was set off to the left hash mark but I managed to bang the ball off the left upright and in for the win. Just made the field goal a lot more interesting to try to make.
Don't know if this has been mentioned, but there appears to be a workaround for the game changing your home/away scheduling. After season 2 of my ND Dynasty, I moved some things around in Custom Schedules. When I was done I backed out and "Accepted" the changes. I then went back into Custom Schedules. I noticed that 1 of my games had the wrong home/away setting. I changed it to what it should be and backed out again. I went into Custom Schedules a 3rd time and everything was right so I backed out again and advanced. When the season started, I looked at my schedule and everything was right.
