During Off-Season recruiting, Playing Time and Proximity to Home is bugged.
Proximity to Home is set to A+ and it doesn't matter where the school is in relation to the recruit.
Playing time is correctly shown during phone calls, but when you set up an in home visit it's set to D+
Dynasty needs it's own thread as well. The two main issues I've seen are the proximity bug (above) and that no DTs are ever drafted.
I haven't dove very deep in yet myself so let us know if there's anything more than those two.
Good lord maybe this game isn't playable even with a decent set of sliders.
Shit. Looks like the continuation of my coaching carousel career dynasty is gonna be on hold longer than I thought.
I know it's nit picking, but can't EA program a way to gray out using "PROMISE A GAME IN PLAYERS HOME STATE" when they are from the state your school is in?
I know you can just say don't use it, but it shouldn't even be available to begin with.

Part of me thinks they quit working on 13 about 3 months ago and started implementing the new engine into 14.
It's also somewhat annoying that we haven't heard a word from EA on these issues or what's being done about them.

having been around this site for 2 and a half years, they dont communicate that sort of thing much if at all to begin with.
Yeah I think EA realized how UTTERLY STUPID it was (from a company standpoint) to have actual employees frequent sites and post on them as that is ONLY asking for the HEAT/VENOM and the employee they used wasn't knowledgeable enough about the product to come across as competent which only INFURIATED the masses more.
I assume at least one patch is coming (unless they go NCAA Basketball on us and just drop off the face of the Earth) and probably 2-3 this year at a minimum.
Patch #1 will address some of the issues but open up Pandora's box on another.
Patch #2 will address the other current known issues
Patch #3 will attempt to address Pandora's Box but by and large fail to succeed
The hometown of the players are not shown when that graphic appears (usually for injuries). It shows a blank space, a comma, then names the home state.
Jesus Christ EA.
Week one of a two man online dynasty. I have 20 guy on my recruit board (although I removed a few during this week). I get to recruit #20 with 20 minutes left in my recruiting bank. I try to call him but I get a message that says
"Cannot call this prospect as the required recruiting time has already been used".
I had used all of my scouting but there is still 00:20 CALL left...
While it's not major changes, I noticed some new data in dynasty. Also, it looks like tackles/assists sort properly on the PS3 now, half sacks sort properly, and pancakes work and are tracked making it possible for a user lineman to win an award.Jesus Christ EA.
At least there's those things.

Well, alright, I'll give EA that much. It will be nice to have some of that stuff now in dynasty. But they need to get the Proximity to Home and Playing Time problems fixed. I'm not sure if I'm even willing to get my dynasty started and hope for a future patch, just because, while I'll get an advantage on Proximity to Home, Playing Time will still fuck me over in recruiting in the end. And depending on how long it would take to get a patch to fix that out, it could be August before I could potentially get my dynasty started up and resume posting.
Understood.
I'm going to move forward as soon as we have rosters. For me, I know this will take a backseat to FIFA and, possibly, NHL. Therefore, I can't wait around too long.

I'm going to think long and hard before I bust that wrapper open tomorrow. I'm not even sure this game is worth $45 at this point.
The sad part I can easily see EA doing nothing, and just telling you to use "House Rules" and not to use the Proximity Pitch unless you truly have that A+ rating i.e an instate player less than 30 miles from the University.
That still doesn't fix playing time though, you can have no one on the roster in that position, only recruit 1 player and you'll always have D+ for Playing Time when it comes to Off-Season Recruiting.

And me going to Tulsa, that will kill me. Between fighting for recruits with Oklahoma and Oklahoma State (plus anyone I target from Texas), Playing Time would and will be one of my biggest pitches to get recruits interested and signed with me.
Poll logic is also absurd, just like it was in NCAA 12. I've simmed a few seasons and have seen one-loss BCS teams rated 5th-7th win all TWO LOSS teams in front of them. It's absurd. It's mostly when the one-loss team has lost it's CCG. Like, for example, in my first sim, Washington was 12-0. They lost their CCG to USC, and dropped to #7, with only 1 one-loss team (Alabama at #2) ahead of them. All other teams in front of them had two losses.
Again, another sim, USC was 12-0 and the only team with less than two losses. They lose their CCG to Washington, and fall to #5 with four two-loss teams in front of them. I really think that in that scenario, they'd still be in the NC Game. Teams with too many losses move up the polls too much/too quickly by beating those top teams. Washington beat USC in that CCG, and went from #7 to #1 (with 2 losses). It just seems insane.
Sim engine also creates too many upsets, I have yet to see a team finish the season unbeaten. Just like in NCAA 12. Stupid again.
Double Post.
