Imported Draft Classes Equipment

[zach0105]

This is literally ruining the franchise mode for me.

I don't know if anyone else is having these issues but it is driving me insane. Almost every single player when I import a draft class from NCAA will have a mismatched helmet/facemask combo. I.E. They will have a revo speed helmet with a regular robot facemask or vice versa. It has been like this, for me, for as long as I can remember in Madden. Add that to the gigantic spiky shoulder pads that have been added it drives me freaking insane. This is something that should have been fixed two years ago.

Just wondering if anyone else has had these issues cause I haven't seen much talk about it.

We all have the issue, but that's not the frustrating part, you can change equipment. It's the KISS shoulder pads, the 300 lb linemen with punter body types. Neither can be adjusted, I'm in my third season and it starts to become very annoying as the freaks build up in your chise.

I drafted Ryan Broyles in the first round a couple of days ago. He came in with a full cage helmet, no gloves, and is so thin he makes my punter look like a nose tackle. And changing his equipment removes his "first round pick" role.

Seems like we all have this problem.

The Road of Glory export is crap.

I spent about a week getting the best stats I could. I was QB for Boston College. Got 99 AWR, QBP, and QBA by Junior year. Broke 3 School Records, 2 NCAA Records, and won the Conference 3 times and Orange Bowl twice. Okay, I graduated and exported. Once in Superstar Mode, my overall was barely 50 and the thighs were fatter than the OL and the rest of the body was like on 0. And of course you cant change it. It was so stupid.

Ok, sorta relieved it isn't just me. And yeah, most of the time I'm ok with changing the helmets it's just it gets old having to change, oh I don't know, 60+ players helmets (that's as many as I can change without going crazy). You're completely right on the shoulder pads though. I cringe every time I go to edit a player and see those.

Hopefully this will actually be something they address this year with the patch and don't just skip over it like every other year.

Wow, I don't know why they did you like that. I made a CB and he was so good in my Senior year he was in the running for the Heisman, but of course I didn't get it. When I imported my CB into Madden he was rated 83 ovr so, I felt like EA improved on the ratings. My problem is that in Superstar Mode is that you can't change your number, in College my dude had long dreads and now all of sudden I don't. You should be able to change your number and hairstyle.

What I did though since I couldn't change things like I wanted. I wrote down all my attributes and made my dude on my own so I can have dreads and my number. Whatever team drafted me in Superstar Mode, that's who I put my player on and just went to play with rookie and played with my guy how he should have been.
