College Football 25 Patch Adds Mass Subs, Roster Update Includes Tons of New Players

Gentlemen....think this thru a little.



We are not going to be able to edit numbers. This is a NIL/legal issue. I don't care if you are 6 years into your dynasty and you have all fake players.....I am 99% certain they can't allow number editing because every dynasty can violate the players NIL with number changing out of the box.



Let's say you are in year 2....you want to change a recruits number.....well he can't take a number from a NIL player.



So how can they code this to know the difference? They probably can't.



Hard coded.



I am mean come everyone....they added full editing except numbers for fictional players and recruits. Huge win.



Let it ****ing go already.



Play the game.

This logic makes no sense. If they have the ability to lock everything out of all NIL players then they should be able to lock their number in as well. All incoming recruits get their choice of available numbers.

I still think it’s a duplicate number issue. That if I want to give my RB #22 they can’t figure out how to stop it from changing my FS that has #22.

NIL reasoning over a number? But we can create any recruit now basically. I recruit a 1 star player that looks similar to a recruit in this cycle, change his name, ratings, and everything there are no NIL issues, but the moment I slap a number on him it turns in to legal problems? Doesn’t add up to me.

But at the end of the day it’s not game breaking for me. Still having a ton of fun with the game.

Re: Patch

Everything applies except what they said did not with those two coaching staff changes/updates.

Thank you.

For all of you Coach Suggestions folk, they tuned that as well as AI Play Calling. I already felt like the AI did a good job of calling plays in game. If it's tuned to be even better, well I'm here for it.

I'm curious about numbering as well. My JR WR (recruited/fake player) was #15 his 1st 2 years (FR & SO), and just changed to #1 automatically at the start of his JR yr. Very curious.

Per the last patch, when I simmed out to get all NIL players out of the game, the game was assigning skilled position players, as well as players on the D-Line single digit or low digit numbers. That was good enough for me. I was just hoping they weren't going to stick to the old NFL number format. They appear to be doing that.

That very well may be all and fine, but if you wont let us edit #'s then they really need to STOP giving out retired numbers. I hate seeing #3,5, 7, 20 etc running around for my school and not having the ability to change it. Those are retired!

Cant wait until they fix the editing numbers bug

Still curious about the random # change. I still had RS SR's (NIL) players in the game, if that means anything. Regardless, numbers can be changed to some degree by the CPU at least.

I will continue to dream of a game speed slider. Wish I could achieve the madden game speed/control. Oh well. Can't say I understand why you would ever want a delayed hit stick?

Until EA THEMSELVES come out and say this is NIL related, it's just opinions on the internet. Mine is that it's because unlike Madden, college players can wear the same numbers as long as they aren't on the field at the same time. I'm sure that makes the coding (which I know zero about) harder. They just need to clear it up one way or the other for us and THEN we can let it go.

Re: EA Sports College Football 25 Patch Available - Patch Notes

Patch notes distinctly call out that mass subs are available against AI. Has anyone played a user vs. user game yet and seen if this option is available?

They delayed the "switch" stick. Far too many times, I've gone to pump up the crowd, or switch a player on defense, etc, only to have the CPU snap the ball, causing me to inadvertently switch to another player (always seems to be a CB) causing me to get torched for 6.

I would guess each recruit probably has a hidden “preferred number” that they will change to if it ever becomes available. It could also be just random. The last of the NIL players graduated in my dynast last season and I saw a ton of number changes for my team afterwards too.

Still no fix for rushing stats out of flexbone being incorrectly assigned to the QB it seems

Re: EA Sports College Football 25 Patch Available - Patch Notes

Can't check right now, but have they finally added our Red Bandana unis to the game? This is an egregious oversight to me
