Am I missing something (Formation Subs)

I realize you can't do them in-game. But before I go into my weekly dynasty game is there somewhere I can go in and edit formation personnel?

EX: I want to out my highly rated second string DE as first string on some formations and not others.

Nope, can't do it. We've been whining and whining about this for a while, to no avail so far.

FORMATION SUBS.... one of the biggest missing links between last gen and current gen. Bring formation subs back for 2010. This is why I say we need the Madden playcall screen for NCAA 2010!

In all seriousness, I think having formation subs on next-gen would crash the 360 / PS3s.

If they didn't crash, the menus interfaces wouldn't be as clean, as smooth, or as reliable without errors as is seen on the NCAA games on ps2 and original xbox...

With all due respect, I totally disagree!!! The Madden playcall screen on NEXT GEN works just fine and it has formation subs built in. As well, I will happily take menus that aren't crstal clear if that means I can get formation subs again

dont even know how that makes sense. we already have depth charts and package subs. not sure how your saying formation subs would cause a prob. it always had its own menu to go in and do this.

Re: Am I missing something (Formation Subs)

OMT has already stated that it merely takes time to input features in...so this next year we may get formation subs or something else but the budget is semi tight. I cant remember the thread.
