PATCH INFO RELEASED..progression not fixed?

[crackbabyathletics]

how is progression a problem? in my dynasty, teams are actually getting WORSE instead of better.
if anything, the default rosters are too highly rated because once the freshmen from default rosters graduate, teams take a large hit to their overall rating. oklahoma had 99 offense and 99 defense in year 3 of my dynasty, now theyre about 90 offense 90 defense.

in year 4 of my dynasty, the top ten players in the ncaa are 8 qb's and 2 kickers! progression is an issue but not because players are too good. there isnt a single LT in the ncaa rated 90 or above. this would never happen in real life.

i think their needs to be more diversity in the 5 star recruits. right now, the only 5 stars are wr's hb's and athletes. i have personally never seen a 5 star olineman which is totally unrealistic.

The biggest problem I have with the LB's on passes over the middle are not their verticals because they aren't that unrealistic. I have a problem with how quickly they react and how they act like momentum does not affect them. That's what makes them super.

Hit it right on the head. Same thing with the DBs at times. I will see a DB turn on a dime and jump right on an INT like he is Deion Sanders. I mean its cool every now and then especially if its a highly rated CB but not when Im playing Duke...

You dont start seeing the crazy progression until about year 6 or 7. Get ready to see about 20 QB's with 99 overall ratings.(no joke) After about year 6 pretty much every QB you face is awesome.

i wouldn't have an issue with the "super lb" or "psychic db" if my players did the same things on defense. I also wouldn't have an issue if my offensive players would make the same concerted effort the db/lbs do. After that happens, there's no issue.

Should we call this solved then? Coach progression needs to be toned down?

Where has it been said that coaching progression is going to be fixed? It was not on the list of patch upgrades, much to my huge disappointment. Unless EA has specifically adressed this, don't count on it being fixed.

It has made Coaching Carousel absolutely useless.

I don't think he was saying its going to be on the patch. Just saying that's the big issue with progression as someone said they thought only school prestige affected the progression.

Exactly what I was saying.

I HOPE it is fixed.
