This may not be the time or place for this but since it's on my mind I'll share it:

I think it would be better to simply have a tendencies page in the player edit screen with all these attributes listed as toggles.

for example:

DAY<<<
HOME<<
and so on. Allow full editing...randomly assigned attributes goes against the grain of player creation.
I can see people wanting to edit Quirks. But I also like the idea of it being randomly assigned. Because it makes you feel like you picked a special prospect if they have a bunch of quirks, and/or gain them as they improve.

I agree. It's interesting, because while The Show gives us plenty of freedom in customizing our players, things like push/pull tendencies, hot/cold zones, and now quirks (apparently, at least) are important in how players perform and are managed, yet are also all randomized.

I'd love to see a new page under player editing where all this stuff can be customized to further define generated players and CAPs. Or, at least have them be clean slates to start and then all be dynamic in career modes.

I completely disagree with you here. I do NOT want randomness when I'm trying to emulate players for the OSFM rosters...we need to be able to edit everything ourselves.

I saw this as well and think just no boost should be applied. This will definitely affect DD and how we choose lineups Road vs Home and Night/Day games

Its a good point when trying to create real-life prospects. Im just referring to the "fake" ones that get generated over the long haul. I agree there is a benefit to editing them but in my opinion, I like the idea of randomness when Im looking at CPU-generated ones.

I was under the impression that only attribute quirks (so no impact on gameplay) were carried outside of Franchise.
