The talk early on among GCs was that it wouldn't, but I'm not sure if that's changed. I've asked and will report back if I hear.

I don't believe it will. I have contacted a few of the developers on this and it is radio silence. When they were testing it the testers were asked if they had to choose one, would they choose special team subs or custom subs. With them confirming special teams subs immediately and them remaining silent on customs I am guessing we will not see it working with customs, at least at release.

Any word on how CPU teams will/if use formations subs? Can we set them for other teams or will everyone work the Bell Cow Back beside the user team?

This has ALWAYS bothered me.

If we have to take control of the owner/coach in order for formation subs to work I wonder if we can become a owner/coach, make our formation subs, and then retire that coach/owner would the formation subs we made stick?

You would change the team control to CPU.

The reason why a lot of us are going to do 32 team control is because we know that the CPU isn't going to use formation subs on their own.

Wait...so they couldnt get the "Lambeau Leap" in but they got "The Dab" in? Leap has been around for years and dabbing has already come and gone. This confuses me
