recruiting symbols

[mcarta]

I don't know if this has already been created but.

What do these signs mean while your on a phone call with a player

X2 with a bunch of plus. I see it x the + by 2 so if u reguraly would of got a +8 now it is a +16 but y. What is the reasoning and is it a good sign the player is going to sign.

An unlock symbol. NOT the one by the pitch results. It is behind the head of the player. Basically can one of the EA guys doing some explaining and give tips. I bought the stragery guide but it says nothing about this.

There should be an explanation if you hit select (i believe)

Re: recruiting symbols

The x2 means your hard sells are twice as effective, and maybe competitive recruiting (have not confirmed this). Not sure about the unlock though. I'll look for it. Maybe stats unlocked?

Yeah, these are randomly assigned week to week and they give recruiting bonuses if you find them.

Or you can purchase the recruiting adviser and he'll point them out to you.

Re: recruiting symbols

The unlock icon means that some of his pitches have been unlocked automatically.

Also look for the purple diamonds (I think). That means you just need to offer him a scholarship and talk to him and he'll instant commit.

I don't know about the instant commit. I saw a 4-star CB with the diamond - I was in his top 10 - and I added and offered - didn't commit. The next week I wasn't even in the top 10.

Do we know what all symbols are out there and an explanation????

Re: recruiting symbols

The purple diamonds mean that if you add him to your board, he'll place you in his top 10. The instant signing is completely different, the recruit adviser will tell you to talk to him because he'll sign. Without the adviser you'll just call a person and they'll instantly sign no pitches necessary.

Re: recruiting symbols

Yeah, that's what I had. What other symbols are there - are there anymore different from last year's? Diamond, the padlock and what else?

Re: recruiting symbols

I'm in the 8th season of my dynasty and haven't noticed the purple diamonds...where do they appear?

Re: recruiting symbols

The diamonds can be very tricky. I noticed during one season that after I set up my recruiting board and scanned thru the 5 and 4 star guys not interested in me that a certain 5 star QB showed the diamond. I add him to my board and he's interested. Something happened and I ended up having to reload the dynasty before I had saved it. So I go back in to re-setup my recruiting board. When I look at the same 5 star QB, there's no diamond. I ended up having to re-add the guys I had before, then look at this QB. Then the diamond showed back up. Somehow the secret interest is dependent on what players or positions you're going after.
