Possible Workaround for Broken Dyansty
After seeing how Dyansty is unplayable after about 4-5 years, I noticed as most have, how the CPU has so many players playing out of postion. I simmed to year 3 and looked at the worst school which was Buffalo. RB's playing as CB, FB as DT etc. So, I decided to make a coach for Buffalo to look at the Rosters. The players are there, just not in the correct positons.
So what I did was start this Dyansty over, but this time correct the depth chart in the 2nd year, then quit the job so the CPU would still controll the team, and sim the season. I went back to this team...again taking control...just to look at the progression. To my surprise it kept my adjusted dept chart and each and every postion improved. Grant not a hugh amount...the most improved player was 5. The next simmed season he got some playing time and improved 4 more...and will start by his Jr year granted only about a 65...but he's not going tho the NFL either.
But this does at least gives me a workaround until (or if) a patch comes out. No more players playing out of postion...because the dept chart is intack. Checked the 53 rated kickers stats...8 -15 FG....18/18 XP. Not many...but you are talking about the 120th team in the nation.
So...what u have to do is create a coach...and go to each and every team to change there dept chart. It only took me about 10 min to do Buff so you are looking at about a little over 2 hrs if you do it in one day. It is worth this to me as to get over the hump in dyansty mode, because I do not sim a season a day or in a week as some do.
What I see is that the CPU has arranged its depth chart to play the best overall player vs a true postion player. Thats why you have an RB maybe playing in the TE or WR postion. The CPU is not taking into account the other players. It seems this would be an easy patch...but who knows.
Also, this makes me think thats why the CPU is stock piling so many QB's or RB etc...they are not listed on the CPU's dept chart under the correct positons. I will run more test and see if the issue lies with this.
This makes me think that the recruits are coming in lower (which they are), but failing to progress because they are not even on the dept chart. My freshman CB..not seeing playing time...improved 3 which I feel is fair, again we are looking at the 120th team in the nation with talent they pull in.
Next I will be testing if I can take a coach and at least set up there the CPU recruiting. I noticed that all CPU teams have an intrest of low at all postions..but this is another job.
Hope this at least can help some of you members...if you would like to give it a try.
