Does anyone here...

Get sick of seeing the generic recruit names? After 5 years of dynasty every player has a generic name and it takes away from the game a little. I always change the names of players on my team, but it takes a long time. Does anyone feel the same way?

Re: Does anyone here...

Yeah, I actually mentioned in another thread how they should have a bigger database of names like in CH2k8. I hate seeing the same names, specifically last names, as I go through lists of recruits.

They don't really have many 'outlandish' names that stick out. Not something I'm dying over, but it'd be nice to have more variety in names.

Re: Does anyone here...

Some of the names that seem to pop up really bug me. "Fontenot" is one that bugs me, idk why. Sorry if anyone here has that name. Also in older games i hated seeing "Poppinga." I feel like when using the real rosters you can tell the real players. San San Te is a kicker from rutgers, and i LOVE Star Jackson when he would play for Alabama a few years into dynasties. I wish EA would implement hyphenated names into their database.

Yah i really don't even care if Nesler says them in the game or not, just having them would add to the realism of the game.

That's why I come up with some sort of naming system and rename all my recruits once the season starts

What is your system and how long does it take?
