I actually have professional broadcast experience too. I'd be happy to help out how I could. Spear knows how to get a hold of me if he'd like.

Way too many big plays are happening because defenders are running right on the heels of the ballcarrier and not attempting a tackle until they either finally make contact or the ballcarrier crosses the goaline and it's too late.
This should be fixed in the next content update, which will be arriving either this Friday or next week. PS4 will see the content update instantly while Xbox content update goes through their normal cert process.

1) Can't tackle correctly. The dive animation takes way too long to make happen, and it only seems to have something like 8-direction functionality (and sometimes just seems to dive wherever the hell it wants to).

2) QB throw responsiveness is also laggy. The ball just doesn't come out on command like I'd like it to.

3) This is the picky one, but it would be really nice for the game to have a page of suggested plays, especially on defense. It's way too much for me to sift through and look at which play is doing what, personally. This is me not being a professionally-good playcaller for something that's more robust than "basic Blitz" playbooks.

4) Two inherent bits: the sprint button and overall breakaway speed. I was told a few months back that the sprint feature works, and in all honesty I don't see it. I'll be chased by somebody and toggle myself sprinting/not sprinting, and I never gain nor lose ground meanwhile. Plus, the defense doesn't even get to sprint, so that would certainly be an unfair advantage even if it does work. That last inherent problem is once I'm past the defender, I often can't be stopped. I don't know which sliders would take care of this since there isn't any sort of pursuit slider. I guess if any receiver has equal or greater speed to the DB's, you'll just get that touchdown.

I was really hoping this year's game would address these things. There are other glitches here and there (some pretty funny ones of the play continuing when it shouldn't), but those aren't the ones which nag at me with the game's overall play like these four do, especially since they were in last year's installment.

I'd say if these were addressed, then you have something I can at least keep coming back to and making the best of. Right now, the only fun aspect of this game (as was last year) is the running game. Defense is just impossible to do anything with, and passing can be a crapshoot.

Anyway, I'll keep supporting and investing each year that you all put out a product, but there are my impressions for now.
The next content update will have some changes to dive tackles, player acceleration, breakaway speed, etc.

Re: My impression of this game so far.

Please, please fix the fumbles and INTs. Waaayyy too many fumbles and 0, none INT. Out of box, all defenders "hands" are at 1!! This might account for lack of picks. Than you.

I’ve seen one interception by the CPU, but they fumbled it on the return.

I think they recovered it though.

Re: My impression of this game so far.

I would love to see an Auto Sub setting or Formation Subs if possible in a future patch.

Re: My impression of this game so far.

What is the easiest way to see stats for my team and players within Dynasty? I see there is a stistics tile, but it appears to be leaderboards for the entire league.

I know it is possible to create and edit plays. Is it possible to edit playcalling tendencies for teams??
