To say the least. It's insane to me that this hasn't been put in the game.

What specific feature are you all talking about? The HB1-HB2 slider? When you say concepts, nobody can tell the exact gameplay manifestation you want.

Sounds like that would be something available if they patch in Formation subs in M17. But it wouldn't do a 2 back committee switch automatically, I assume.

You can already just set your Auto-sub slider higher for RB.

User teams can obviously breach this manually in many ways. I'm talking about CPU teams working a system besides the workhorse back.

I think the bigger thing people want is for the CPU team to recognize in-game that it doesn't have a bell-cow running back on its roster and to rotate backs on different series or drives. Formation subs doesn't fix that.

That said, I personally value formation subs over that, and if we got formation subs in a post-release update that'd be a huge win for the community in my book.

Sounds like there is a pretty good chance that formation subs gets patched in.

Why did you delete your post? It was a good, substantive post.
