    I really wish everyone would get on board with, spread the word about, and vote, tweet, scream for Custom Sub Packages.

    Yes, I too would rather have form subs than nothing, but I think CSPs are a much better way to accomplish the same thing, and has functionality that form subs do not include...

      Trick, I think at this point splitting hairs there is semantics. They'll give us an interface that allows all the functionality you want. You may need to do an extra step in there or something, but that's nothing compared to not having the interface at all. Custom sub packages came along after formation subs, so it's very likely we'll see them within the next few cycles as well.

        I have to vehemently disagree with you. With custom packages back in M06 on ps2 you could create global packages allowing you to do intricate substitutions and even, wait for it, second team packages where you could bring in your entire backup defense or offense!!!

        It isn't semantics at all, not even remotely. The ability to create the intricate substitutions packages like ( 2nd TE slot, HB3, WR flip, 2nd RT to TE1 ) and then have another package be ( Str Slot, HB2, TE3, WR2/WR3 swap ) within the very same formation is far and away and completely different than sub Joe Smoe
        permanently into one specific formation.

        Form subs is graduating from preschool and custom sub packages is a PHD from MIT or Harvard!!!

          I think you're making Nate's point in a way. The focus right now is to try to get something in M17, and the reasonable thing (with regards to time and resources) to ask then is FormSubs. What you are describing, while it may have been in earlier versions of the game, would require the amount of resources that might delay it into M18 at the earliest.

          So this basically becomes a give&take situation... We're basically choosing to focus on what might actually be realistic for M17 (Which doesn't eliminate the possibility of having something better for M18)
