Can you, or someone else give me an example?

"Included the ability to change the CPU controlled team’s playbook at team select" -- Does this mean I will get to use my playbooks for the the CPU to use, including in Dynasty? - Please tell me this is true!

If this addition is simply so players can touch up their dynasties then that is great, but if it IS the fix that was promised for the decline of talent in later years of dynasty then it is a poor fix at best. Not everyone wants to double the time a season takes simply so that there is not a decline in the talent seen in the game.

But it has been fixed, substantially it seems from video evidence. Sure, it's not perfect, but it is far better than before.

My man look at it from a broader scale. None of us know which players will blow up next season. Some guy always comes out of nowhere to put up gigantic numbers IRL. But, he may be rated just a 71 ovr on the game. Well now, we have the ability to go in at any point during the season and adjust his ratings. Look at what this option does as far as recruiting goes; Because the recruits are generic, they aren't geared towards real life recruits. Most of us like to edit real recruits onto our teams. That was a hard thing to do in the past because you couldn't edit height, weight, or much else for that matter. Now instead of me trying to recruit someone close to(Keith Marshall should he come to UNC), I can make Keith Marshall exactly as he is IRL. That's the awesome thing about it. I just hope we can edit CPU's depth chart too.
