Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Great game and very fun but the new up with Situational now has you missing every FG you would make without situational being on, they need to fix that ASAPz kick Power and Accuracy over 115 but missing 40 & 50 yard FG.
It is a good game we been playing for years, but it seems like when you play a higher overall team the game will make you turn the ball over in crucial moments multiple times. And it sorta seems like you would have to pay to win more. Besides that great game.
We have made it to the championship 4 times in a row and every-time something dumb happens and we lose like in OT we get the the ball first first play fumble recover by defense td but very fun game overall.
Not the perfect football sim but fun.. Only thing we dont like is how end of game with lead milking clock works.
We love the coaching aspect but ever since we had to update and reinstall we cant play the GM mode. Its faster and a simpler mode that we enjoyed.
How do we change the salary cap.
Simulations are terrible. For example, in hurry up mode, 20 seconds will drop off the clock on a quick play with full timeouts at the end of a game. Makes no sense. Also they want you to spend boatloads of money in order to make your team good. Trash game tbh.
The difficulty curve you guys have added to this game in order to implement power ups has actually made the game so mid. We use to go for 80 years but now we cant even get past year 2032 without being fired. You make all the teams in your conference and division so freaking good its ridiculous. There are no more upsets (being our cruddy team surprisingly beating a good team) which is something that happens in real life. The first 3-4 seasons of this game are going 0-17 MAYBE 2-15. Then you get fired. We got fired after getting the +5 power up giving all our players an extra 5 overall and we had a like a 7-9 season. We tried this three times and now we give up.
Can yall get our qb to go through his progressions instead of throwing the ball in .5 seconds. We went from being able to thrown deep pass td to our qb just throwing it into triple coverage 3 yards out in .5 secs after the snap.
We truly do not mind spending money on this game because we find it enjoyable, but getting fired without warning after spending real cash on the game is incredibly frustrating and should not happen.
We run an option and its like our 100 rated QB and RB are worthless after the update. 1 yard every time when the defense awareness isnt even high needs to be fixed.
Let us begin this review with high praise for the support team! We experienced an issue with an accidental cut of a player that created an insurmountable dead cap situation in Legends mode. The dead cap was so high that it put us over the cap even when all players had been traded. We reached out for support, Monica got back to us within 24 hours and helped to resolve the issue. Essentially, the team was able to create a copy of our Legends game and remove the dead cap. However, even if they had not been able to resolve it for us, we so deeply appreciated the communication. They didnt dismiss our issues. Monica listened and really thought through how she could help. We appreciate that. We think thats rare in this space. Of course, the game is fantastic, particularly if you nerd out on drafting, cap management, free agency, player development, and also strategy and developing plays. But AMAZING customer service just takes this gaming experience to the next level. Special shout out to Monica!! You represent your company well.
We genuinely like the update yall released especially the 2d mode it just makes everything better but we do hope yall add a feature to control who your qb passes to sometimes cause we see wide open player our qb doesnt pass to.
So we are in the championship and our team is leading 40-30 in the 4th then we punt with 5 minutes left. They take 1 minute to score a touchdown(perfectly fine with us) but then our Returner fumbled it the first time in the playoffs Im very mad right now so they tie it up with a field goal so we have 3 minutes to get the lead. But when we get to the kickoff the returner fumbled again so they get the TD to lead by 7 so Im very frustrated because we just gotten screwed and now have less than 2 minutes to tie it but then, THIS RETURNER FUMBLES THE 3RD TIME IN A ROW. They get the ball then they win so its pretty annoying that our team was so close to winning the game and we just dont want that bug to happen to someone else again like why is it possible for the returner to fumble 3 times in the 4th.
Please fix the trade value system because its outrageous how our players are worth less than the ai players.
Love this game but it just wont let us out of coach mode its still awesome and the premium is worth it.
We are always over the salary cap and other teams are 19 overalls better than us with so much free cap.
When an offensive player gets injured, they keep playing in 2D mode. The game doesnt mark them as unable to play. But if you turn off 2D mode, it goes to the next player in the position like normal ALSO when playing in 2D mode, QB stats are WAY worse than when you play with 2D mode off. The simulation has to be running on a different system than the 2D mode, it needs balancing.
We love this game, and prefer it over the other game where you actually control the QB.our only gripe is the QB in this game ONLY throws the ball when hes about to get sacked, not when a receiver is open.so that means most the time he throws it after the receiver isnt open anymore.its so irritating and makes it almost pointless to have an intervene statwhich our QBs is like 101 so whats going on.
For now, Im only gonna get this a three star review. The game is fun, but we just dont get why Im only winning on average like 3 to 4 games per season plus Ive been reading reviews and Ive been seeing that you can change a difficulty, but we cant figure out how.
We used to love this game. Many, many seasons played. We bought packs to support the devs for a great game. Had to update from v2 to v3 on a new phone and the game got worse imo. Players on rookie deals are docked trade value?! Thats completely counter to reality. The development of players appears now entirely dependent upon facility level, which is tied to income, which is dependent on wins, which is dependent on player development, and now weve completed this circle. Coach advancement is reliant upon TP, but thats always been a revenue generator, so not much there has changed. You used to be able to get competitive within about 6 seasons and turn around your moribund franchise without spending $$, which is realistic. Now good luck getting anywhere beyond 4-7 wins. Its a slog, and feels more like EAs UT garbage. Not happy with the direction of the game in v3. Solid foundation steadily being dismantled.
Fun game but very difficult to win unless you spend money even if you spend money they took away the choice to pick your difficulty and how good your team can be! For example you can have the best tight-end in the league and have him match your scheme fit and only be worth 700 in trade value, and then trade him away just for him to be worth 24,000 in trade value!! WTH. Also if your teams overall is lower then the team your playing against and its not a home good luck with that win you have a better chance of catching a disease from a nun. Fix these issues brother! Thank you.
Year 2052. Trades are impossible! The Draft only gives one good player each season, we have a level 4 scouting center and a 91 scout and the draft hides all players of our scheme so we cannot find useful players. Free agents we can use are all angry, we do pick a 6 games target 86 rated team makes the playoffs, very next year 89 rated we target the playoffs and Im cant beat an 85 rated team. The games feels like Im just touching buttons, the AI decides against whatever choice we make. And All of the Ultimate games are the same way.
We even put a few bucks into the game to see if it would make a difference. Every second half we get bent over even when 86 Overall. Maybe only way to win is pick every single play but in that case we can go play madden.
Fun game, but trade values make absolutely no sense. Theyre completely against you, drafted a 5 star 90 overall CB and his trade value is 400. But the 3rd round 75 overall WR has a trade value of 60k. Horrible trading mechanics. Our 24 year old 81 overall QB who just threw for 6k yards and 60 TD will maybe get us a 3rd round pick in return smfh.
Why is our team only kicking onside kicks? Started right after we got the new update.
Is there any chance you will be bringing legends mode to pro football GM or Pro Baseball GM. The legend mode in College football head coach is by far our favorite mode in any of your games.
Fix this game salary cap the people are too expensive and we start with a little money. Also we like to 2D mode one of our favorites.
The stats have to be adjusted they make no sense our star tackles let up 30 sacks a season apparently lol and let us choose the actual players positions like Lt/Rt and not have to tank till 2055 to be a decent team games fun but needs work.
The Overall game is amazing we love how detailed everything is but what we dont like is when we watch our team on 2d mode our qb plays with no iq instead of throwing it to the open man he decides to throw it to the most covered person on the field and passes up on the open man but other than that we love the game.
Whats up with that? Is that a bug? It quite annoying and its caused our team to lose game that its was initially winning. Can you fix please? Other than that its a fun game.
We really really would like yall to bring back the burn clock/hurry up button from before. Other than that the updates have improved the overall experience.
Freezes and wont show us the play calling options. Have to quit the app entirely to make progress.
Ive played this game off and on for a good long while now. If you like GM/Coach games this is a must try 110%!! If we were to suggest one, our only improvement would be having a separate GM college game and have the ability to send managed players from college to pro( kind of like how ncaa was able to onboard to madden for a few years) . Itd be awesome but even without that, this game rocks! Will forever play edit one last thing we would like to add to our statement is please allow our PvP team the RacoonCity Undead to have their name without the censor of Rac**nCity Undead . Its a resident evil reference not anything else.
We love this game and have played it since 2022. One of our favorite football manager games and since Ive updated on this phone we can only get onto the head coaching mode and we dont enjoy that at all. We paid for premium but we cant access GM mode anymore and its the sole reason we play the game.
This game needs no words one of the best on the market Mann the aniexty we get playing in the championship game.
Bro this is the most fun, addicting GM game ever.
We have tried playing this game on our iPad and we can only play as the Head Coach and not the GM. Is this a bug.
Things we would like to see improved.. Why cant we scout coaches?? When having a coach retire, or looking for a new coach, either have the info out for all of them, or make them scout able to unlock who they are. Other than that, awesome game.
We love the game but we like to see the passing stats add up at their overall rating goes up. Our issue is, we typically grab quarterbacks that are more pass oriented rather than rushing qb. But rather than our quarterback getting better at passing and padding his stats, after a season or 2, they suddenly stop passing and turn into Randall Cunningham. We do everything possible from running the proper offense thats passer friendly and add to the bullseye trait yet they stop throwing mainly and convert to Lamar. It drives us insane.
Why does it only allow coach mode and not Gm.
10/10 but should add a sandbox mode where you can edit ratings age just like a full control you could make it a sedate gamepass we would buy that even it was a $100.
We love this game Ive been playing for a long time, but we remeber when we used to play and could edit the salary cap, Is that still available. If not yall should definitely bring it back. Lmk.
Used to be great now its trash not worth the learning curve. Money doesnt even help u win. This game was great but the last year its not worth the download.
The game has really evolved into an amazing GM game. The addition to the head coach mode was a huge step up to the game. However, that has its issues Ill get into. The GM mode has always been good, no real big issues or problems. Overall, the game is good, we like it, its amazing. The only issues with GM mode come later when youve had a save for a while and head coach mode is okay but can use some big fixes to a couple of things and we think itll be just as good as GM. As for some fixes: GM mode gets very unrealistic the more you go on. You have teams with 78 players on their roster and somehow still have like 30+ million in cap space meanwhile you have just the necessary players (~54) and youre either struggling to be below the cap space or just above it. GM mode teams also just dont fall off. We have a save where Ive gone for maybe 100+ seasons and the same teams are still so good. They just dont fall off and theres no real fresh competition, same teams all the time. GM mode teams also get such high overall the more you go. On that same 100+ season save, the same good teams are 108+ overall, again, with no issue staying below the cap space and somehow have like 70+ players on their roster. GM mode teams have access to the +5 gear that would normally cost you actual money to have. We find that mildly unfair but we also think it contributes to why the teams dont fall off. They can have a mid team be boosted to a top 5 or 10 team with that gear. Head Coach mode is for whatever reason so difficult. It costs so much to sign a player for no reason. It makes it feel impossible to build a good team. You have to win your get better players, but you cant win because you need better players. If the cost of players was just similar to GM mode we think it would be fine. For comparison: a ~90 overall guard would be 8-14 million in GM mode if youre starting out. On head coach mode that same ~90 overall guard would be 20+ million. Theres no reason for that. There may be more fixes we could suggest to head coach mode but Ive never really played more than a season on most saves because of the fact its so hard to do anything. To recap, GM mode is amazing as is with some bigger issues being more towards the late game. We do think the issues are worth fixing because it would (in our opinion) perfect GM mode. As for head coach mode, we think the progression is absolutely shot by the player cost. Unless you wanna spend 10+ seasons to attempt and have an okay team we would suggest just skipping over head coach mode. Overall, the game is good. We like it, we still play it, but we would be more inclined to play and spend our time with it if some fixes were made.
We like the game but to be any good you have to put money in it. And why isnt there an option to take of the salary cap.
This game is a great GM simulation, with its emphasis on strategy and decision-making. However, the difficulty makes it tough for beginners to enjoy. An easy fix would be implementing an easy mode for newcomers, allowing them to get used to the game before moving on to more challenging difficulties. If implemented, this would greatly improve the overall experience.
BRING BACK LADDER MODE more than once a day.
Please bring player mode back it was fun, we don't really like head coach mode.
We love the game, but we definitely prefer the older GM playable version from before. And also we understand it supposed to be challenging, but trying to do rebuilds as a HC seems almost impossible. We like everything else like the added boosts to overalls and financial engine.
