Edit draft class at the end of pre-season......

[bugkill1sf]

The devs really need to make the draft class available directly after the pre-season in order for players to make edits to the players and have the draft stories match as the regular plays on. Also, after selecting "Edit Players", they should block the ratings when viewing the draft roster in edit mode and that the ratings can only be seen once you actually go into editing a player. Once again, this is only to edit a draft class or upload a created draft roster at the end of the pre-season. The scouting portion would still be for week 3.

I like that idea but the only issue is if you edit/import, the stories stop.

Totally want this, I do not wanna see ratings on the main editing..... Let me change players names and things without knowing their ratings !

This is huge wish I realized this sooner! I always assumed it was a bug.

Well, that is an issue that these devs should be able to easily fix. This idea is very easy to do and makes perfect sense. They should be able to script the draft stories after you start the regular season and your edited player names should show up. Like I said before, we are only getting the ability to have the draft class come up and allow us to edit the players or upload our draft. Once you begin the regular season, the draft stories should populate using the edited data if selected.

The devs didn't quite listen to the community on editing a draft class because they went well beyond what we wanted them to do. We only wanted to edit names and appearance. That's it! We didn't want to see or the touch ratings (we can do that later) because we wanted to keep the unknown alive and well at the draft. They are also not realizing that a good number of us still play NCAA 14 and create draft rosters based off draft classes from that game.

I've made saves at the Players Leaving screen in NCAA 14 for each year that I finish a season. I have it running on one monitor and I got Madden on the other. I simply go through each position creating the top projected players from my NCAA game. It is my way of keeping the NCAA game alive and it is still an awesome football game after all these years.

i don't agree here at all, maybe have an option for you guys. i want to see everything from a macro level when creating a class in the editor.

Why do we assume everything is easy? I'm not against what you want but we have to stop assuming things are easy, because we really don't know.

I see your point but I personally enjoy playing realistically so if I create Tua, I actually do want to edit his ratings and if EA catches a bug and the ratings in one particular are too low or high, it helps to fix it versus waiting for a patch.

I honestly only pay attention to stories for the tells on ratings. I think it the stories would actually be better suited to be incorporated in the scenario engine so they can be updated over time but that is likely a headache since the players aren't actually in the game yet.
