CFM Rookies Not Adjusted To Stock Player Scale (EA Is Investigating)

[JayD]

Re: CFM rookies not adjusted to Stock Player Scale

Question for you equipment junkies, would you rather see a bunch of random looking guys and the equipment is a miss-match. Meaning OL gloves on a WR, with a random helmet, hand warmer, QB wristband and Nike cleats all on a WR. And a QB with HB gloves, no hand warmer, towel, double tc full arm sleeves, no QB wristband and select cleats. Or have it the way it is now?

I would obviously go with the way it is now but I still don't see how they can't just randomize the helmets per player position. Has anyone tweeted this issue out?

Re: CFM rookies not adjusted to Stock Player Scale

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I have notified QA and the CFM team and they are looking into it. I will report back when I have an update for you.

I don't always like the direction that M16 heads especially CFM and editing..but this one response means a lot..no deflecting, no excuses, just to the point answer...this type of leadership/straight to the point approach is def what this game needs.

I could be wrong but I think he was referring to the rookie ratings, not the equipment.

Thanks Rex. Much appreciated for you guys looking into maybe fixing CFM rookies before it's released to the public on Tuesday.

That was for the player ratings I believe.

Re: CFM rookies not adjusted to Stock Player Scale

One thing no one has mentioned...what about the shoulder pads?

Remember how in Madden 15, too many rookies not only had dreads, but these overly wide shoulder pads. I wonder if that's been fixed?

And in the sake of fairness, even though I was a 2K player a decade ago, I remember back then that CFM rookies were messed up equipment wise too. Don't remember which game specifically, but rookies came in all looking 100% same, and none of them had gloves. Granted, we could edit the rookies back then, but I just say that to say that annoying issues like these do happen.

Good to see Rex chime in.

I think this was the case as recently as NCAA Football 13. I'd rather have a few realistic templates for each position than random crazy equipment. Especially with all the 90's gear still in the game.

If you go in CAP..the issue is there too...something with the editor is off..once u get over a certain weight I believe 250 some of the sliders go backwards..

Re: CFM rookies not adjusted to Stock Player Scale

I'm ok with all the rookies having the new revo helmets. With all the issues about concussions lately, it wouldn't surprise me if the NFL made these new, safer helmets manditory for all incoming rookies with the older players being grandfathered out of the rule, kind of like they had with helmets in the NHL in early 80s.

Re: CFM rookies not adjusted to Stock Player Scale

Well thanks alot to Rex for listening. I hope they can patch it quickly and its better, but honestly seems like a pretty big task to tackle at this point. Here is wishing the CFM and QA team the best...

This just brings up a point ive said for a long time... they need to enlist a large group of true CFM heads to QA this stuff on the side for them , back in march or april. The more minds and eyes , the easier to catch things ahead of time. I wouldnt even want a free game for doing so, just to be able to help them catch this type of thing early on to help the end product be better for us all , would be payment enough for me, and i believe for many others ,if they would just ask allow us to.
