At least not the biggest problem. It is the lack of fun content and lazy presentation that they haven't changed in years. This game should be better on that end. Will be interesting to see who doesn't opt-in? I really can't think of a reason why an athlete wouldn't want to be in the game outside of wanting to be compensated more, but it isn't like sitting out the game will accomplish that. They'll just continue to move on. Edited February 23 by iknowcool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I’m sure someone will make a big deal about not doing it, but some of the bigger name guys will already be getting more by way of promotions and didn’t they say they cover athletes will be in college now?

I don't know if the player is completely locked, but they made it sound like you wouldn't be able to edit them to create the likeness of the player that opted out. The way they worded it makes me think that their names, or something along those lines, will be blocked for that particular team. It would be hilarious if it was only blocked for that individual place holding player, so you could just edit someone else into them.

OkeyDoke21 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Have Shedeur and Travis Hunter openly opted out? I keep seeing them being used as the examples everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guarantee people will figure out work arounds, but at least EA can be like "hey, we tried." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know, they are just starting the process of getting players signed so we won’t know for sure who is and isn’t for a while. I also think I heard something about a deadline to opt in.

I don't have twitter, so I'm always a few steps behind of stuff like that. Edited February 23 by OkeyDoke21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

August4th Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I hope EA doubles down on game atmosphere going forward. Imagine having game cut scenes featuring fans like this would be cool that when you're Michigan and every time you lose a close game, you'll see a cut scene showing a fan like this kid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
