This is all very frustrating. I'm reporting this in the bugs/glitches thread.
Definately feels like something that could be patched. Hope so.

Yeah let's hope so. Schemes would be thrown out the window because they are currently locked in even if they show changes on the scheme screen.

Re: Why does the player's overall rating change when I start my career?

If you change the positional schemes before you advance to the first preseason week in the first season they take effect on the players, but once you advance they go back to their previous overall. That makes it seem to me that its broken and not that they wanted the schemes tied to the coaches and unchangeable.

I know overalls don't matter all that much but it is pretty annoying seeing both of my LEs in the 50s and being able to do nothing about it. And its not because those players are terrible, all the DEs across the whole league are way down overall, outside of Justin Smith and Watt, for however the Raiders have their scheme setup.

This exactly! I made a post in the bugs/glitches thread. Want to look it over for me and see if I need to clarify/change anything because you know exactly the problem I'm having.

You explained it well. Let's hope they get this fixed.

Re: Why does the player's overall rating change when I start my career?

What's also confusing is when the team's overall changes randomly. For example, I made 1 test move by releasing Terrell Pryor and signing him to the Chargers (not in CCM, just offline). The Raiders went from 73 ovr to 82. Chargers jumped from 73 ovr to 83 lol. Why?

It's a frustrating concept. But you players ratings IN GAME are there ratings for YOUR SCHEME. any other ratings outside of playing a game are meaningless.

Just go by what u see in the pause screen IN GAME and there will be no confusion.
