I'm a happy camper. I finally got my full player editing (which in effect means we have custom draft classes). Add the ticker and well I'm just tickled pink (never understood what that meant, but my mom often says it).

Glad you guys got your practice squad, though I personally never cared about it.

My next big wish was for better stat tracking and history. Anything on that front?

A step in the right direction but without a better team relocation/create a team system it isn't up to par with the competition. Some of the biggest NFL news this off season and it appears untouched ingame.

And it was the first time it had happened in real life in how many decades? Putting a ton of resources and effort into something that rarely ever happens in real life just doesn't make sense. There is a certain point where "customization" stops intersecting with "realistic" and I don't think they're wrong to avoid pouring resources into this specific feature for that reason.

Now I'm sure this will be a focus at some point in the future, and I know that "relocation" also encompasses new stadiums which ARE very realistic and happen a lot more often than teams changing cities and/or names. I get that. I'm just talking about prioritizing and I think they're doing a pretty good job there.

These are some great additions, and makes me very excited!

I know there are still things people want, this is a hell of a start. They can only do so much in one cycle, and they have done a ton in this one overall.

Agreed, I'm so pumped!

Why wouldn't you be able to edit rookies names?

Didn't one of those Big Decision injury pictures show Donald Penn, offensive tackle, being injured?

That could indicate off-ball injuries, or maybe it was simulated or something.

maybe he made a tackle after an interception, or he picked up a fumble and got tackled

who knows

Maybe Rex doesn't know that two blogs have already been released.

Doesn't matter how often it happens in real life. In my life time multiple new teams have been added to the league and 5 plus relocations. I think that warrants a better relocation/ create a team system. The other thing is that I can play decades and it just isn't realistic that in 25 years either no team relocates or when they do the branding and jerseys don't match. I believe if one game can have it plus get everything else right EA can too.

Yeah, I'm a little worried that because the tweet he was responding to only said "nice vid" Rex might not realize that two blogs have already dropped. Would love for there to be more info coming...
