If he was a New Coach he should have been D+ I think..

I hate to rain on your parade but EA's tweet that they fixed the problem "server side" does NOT mean the problem is completely server side. It means they tried to fix it with a server-side only update. Since that clearly failed, if ANYTHING it might indicate a client issue as well. So to state unequivocally in big bold letters that it will only ever be fixed server side and we won't possibly notice an update client side is not a 100% logical leap to make. Networking code exists on both sides of the equation. We can HOPE they can fix it server side but there is a very real chance it involves a client update, despite what they've tried up to this point.

I simmed ahead 5 seasons....but I didn't write down any results....but

I started with rosters that had all coaches below C+ at the start.

5 seasons in there were 11 A+ coaches total. 5 were HC's, 3 OC's and 3 DC's (which still bothers me that coordinators get to A+ prestige).

There were about 15 A's......

As for the rest of the way down....I just glanced since I'm heading out the door....but there were B's to about half way down.

Not sure, I was using luvtotha9s roster. Also to clarify, the coaches i listed we just HCs no coordinators.

It seems hard to know if the Tuner Pack is working in my Dynasty or not? There should be a way to know!

Has anyone tried getting the tuner without getting the patch? Due to the no-huddle bug and CPB issues associated with patch 2, I'm not going to download it. However, I'd love to get player progression (as an A+ prestige coach I had my starting QB gain 10 OVR points in 1 season when combining in-season and off-season progression) and coach progression tweaks. But I remember in '11, there were some serious issues (like 0 progression at all) when you either had the patch with no tuner or tuner with no patch.

Does anyone know if there'll be issues if I grab the tuner, but not patch #2?

Thanx!

It seemed good before and it still seems good. If anything for future games I would like to see more intelligent progression. Like Freshman and starters go up more than everyone else. Oh and for poops and giggles, Luck was heisman. 3367 yrds 38td 8int. Seemed fair. UNC went 6-6, and I forgot to check who won the national championship. I wish the dynasty would keep records of that stuff so you could check the history or your dynasty no matter what year you're in.

There were many threads of people complaining but that was weeks after the game was released...i guess people just gave up whining.

It is a major issue though..Im in my 9th season and there are 19 QB's alone with an overall rating of 99.

In my offline dynasty pre-tuner, as an A+ prestige coach (which affects player progression) my #1 and #2 QBs gain +1 AWR each and every week. As a guess, I'd think that the tuner would cause that to not happen, so if you use an A+ prestige coach and your QBs aren't gaining 13-15 AWR throughout the season, then it's probably working.
