    Penn state's Schedule is wrong. What other teams are as well?

    I know Penn State's schedule is wrong. (How you can't get the schedule correct is beyond me but that is another topic for another discussion.) They are listed as playing Minnesota when they should be playing Iowa. Thus, Iowa and Minnesota's schedules are wrong as well.

    I figured we could start a list of teams with incorrect schedules. NOTE: I don't think we should count FCS games because the teams don't exist in game.

    So far:

    Penn State
    Iowa
    Minnesota

    Are you looking at the default schedule prior to making any changes at all to the dynasty? The schedules are usually correct, even through the first two seasons.

    EDIT: Just started a dynasty without changing anything. The schedule is correct. If you edit anything, division names, etc. it can screw up the schedule. EA has noted this but not sure if they will try to fix it.

      That's weird... I didn't change anything and mine is wrong. I guess if you go to that screen and not change anything it still screws the schedule up.

        Maybe. It is kinda dumb. They said they just intended for it to be if you changed the alignment of the conference it would look to a different schedule but it would up doing it if you changed anything. Apparently that means just looking. lol

          schedules are jacked up period. they need to give you the option to do more edits to the schedules. they have Ohio States times all messes up, and even though all the game times have not been released they need to be realistic when choosing that stuff. I mean they have us playing Akron at 7pm, and Wisconsin at like noon, thats all I can think of off the head but I remember one year they had us playing Michigan at 8pm, its getting ridiculous, and ruins the experience

            Take a look at the Thursday night games beginning around week 8... 3:30 kickoff?

                  Custom time and weather in Dynasty games, please.

                    All schedules are not 100% period. They will not be until the Hawai'i glitch is fixed. They also will never be 100% correct because schedules time-wise are not complete until a couple weeks before time wise, so though excuse to have some teams play 10/12 day games.

                    Also, many teams don't even have their schedules complete for 2012. There is no way the game will be accurate that year.

                    To the person who said the schedules are accurate this year... no. I can tell you right off that MSU is scheduled incorrectly with LSU; game should be at home and I believe I saw them @LSU in the game.

                    But here is the thing: it is a video game! By year 2, the schedule is fantasy any way. Who cares if year 1 isn't perfect? That's what the TV is for. Watch the games if you want to see them. You are the head coach, play whatever schedule you want.

                      I have found this to be true. When starting a dynasty, you can't even click into the custom schedule screen at all if you want the real-life schedule season one. Just by going into that menu and not making any changes whatsoever, you're gonna get a fictitious schedule to start.

                        Forget day games, my schedule is 90% noon and 1PM games! I literally don't have one singe 3:30 start on my schedule and that makes me .

                        But selecting our own gametime is "unrealistic," I guess.

                          It should be tied to TV more. Most national games are late afternoon, evening, and night. Regional games should have more varied times. Non-televised times could be anything. As someone who programs myself, I cringe at some of the things I see in it, but at the same time, I can see how stuff slips through. A day of the week is a day of the week in their code. People go on about 3:30 Thursday games, but have you seen 3:30 any other day? I don't pay attention because in my 1937 setup, nearly all conferences I set to Saturday only. If 3:30 games pop up on Tuesday Sun Belt games or something, then it is just because they don't differentiate the days.
