Sucks for all the people that want to make authentic college classes. None of those players will be referenced in game. What happens in a few years into a franchise when the bulk of players are from a custom draft classes? Going to be really funky commentary with just # call outs or ignoring the player. Kills immersion for that IMO.

If the names are already in the database I'd think this is patchable. Right?? Anyone with more programming knowledge than me?

Announcing a player's last name is exactly like last year. If you touch any of the player's name it won't be called. So I draft QB named Mike Jones and I change his 1st name to Jerry, the announcers will no longer say "Jones" but the generic "QB" lines.

You change James James' last name (this happens in Madden) to Jones and it's the generic "QB" stuff again.

You can't edit names at all if you want his name to be called by the play by play guys.

I sent them a tweet. They will ignore me unless a ton of others like and retweet. Only way to get this patched in is through enough people "complaining" about the same issue. If not, 100% they will not change it.

I hate this. I was hoping to edit a few draft to have a few fictional juniors of players, like a Barry Sanders Jr. and stuff like that :-/

Hit the devs on Twitter. Only way this gets patched in.

This is a tad disappointing. Especially since Madden has finally come around on the commentary department the last couple years.
