Custom Draft Classes

[vstro]

This needs to be in the game if they want people to really immerse themselves into franchise mode. The notion that people won't buy future games is silly. Custom draft classes are great and all, but I still buy nba 2k every year for gameplay improvements and the official roster updates. If anything they lose sales not having this in the game.

Madden could go a whole year without updating anything, and only add custom and shareable draft classes, and I would gladly give them $65 for the game.

This is the main feature I have been begging for since I signed up on this site 10+ years ago. There is no gentle way to put this, but it will NOT happen. You guys asking/hoping for it to be "patched" in.....I feel your pain 100%, but it will NOT happen. "Why" some may ask??? Because they can't make extra money off of it......the same reason CFM has been largely untouched this entire console generation. There is always, EVERY YEAR, some sort of time or resources excuse to explain this fact away. I know the actual devs in the tranches of making the game are NOT to blame for this......these are the kinds of decisions that suits on the top floor make in regards to the bottom line. Again, I would LOVE to be proven wrong and owe EA an apology.....but there is 0% chance of that happening. Such a SIMPLE feature could give the CFM mode such LIFE and replay ability... but we won't see it.

This needs to happen, this is just one of the things that makes it lag behind nba 2k in overall quality.

The other things are individual player style and feel as well playing to thier ratings (they say they do this year, well see), editable injuries, custom teams with custom logos, a bunch of gameplay sliders that do exactly what they say they do and nothing else and ill just stop there

At least let us change equipment, appearance, and most importantly NAMES. I imagine it couldn't be that difficult. since they allow us to immediately do it following the draft.

Yep we have to push for it ! If there a glitch or running issue it seem to take months to fix it ! But when we have edit the pre draft that was patch so dang fast ! Lol man just give us that again obviously it noting for them to do !

i dont put the blame on any dev and progarmmer its all the NFL and EA higher ups

I have a gut feeling the reason why they won't let us pre-edit the draft classes is because there is something in the CFM Mechanics/algorithm that has to do with default prospects and the little news bits that pop up throughout the year.

My guess is they're too lazy....or erm preoccupied with other modes and basketball games to bother tweaking that mechanic so they'll just keep it as is.

Hell at least we have the edit player feature after the draft, its tedious and kinda hurts the realism but its better than nothing and nothing is what we usually get shovelled in CFM.
