The CFB 27 dynasty deep dive blog is 16,469 words. That is 32 pages single spaced. Not once was anything mentioned about adding microtransactions or removing coach progression XP. Here's what they did say though: "...the mindset that has driven this mode since day one: 'Satisfy the Core Community' because 'This is THEIR Game.' That belief is not just something we say. It shows up in the way this team debates details, responds to feedback, studies how Dynasty is played, and keeps pushing to make the experience deeper, more authentic, and more rewarding over time. It shows up in the headline features, the smaller quality-of-life improvements, and the countless decisions that players may not always see individually, but will feel across the course of a Dynasty." Just something to keep in mind for future releases. #cfbplaydontpay

According to @MikeStrawMedia, many devs who knew about the stuff coming to College Football 27 were “livid” about it for months He says “Even future single-player-only titles will have more monetization options enabled.” This is no longer about just CFB 27 This is about the future and direction of games coming from EA. I am speechless #CFBPlayDontPay

EA has responded, but sounds like they’re gonna stand firm for now and double down on the changes with micro transactions They’re also using creators to push their messaging without making a statement themselves or addressing anything “the core coach level progression is unchanged from CFB 26” true, but normal is way too slow, and you REMOVED 2 faster settings They acknowledge “Fast/Faster Coach Progression was removed from Dynasty,” 0 update on a plan to bring it back ZERO mention of removing XP sliders from Road to Glory either “continuing to monitor community feedback” basically meaning we don’t wanna make a change because we think it’ll blow over lmao I can’t believe this is the response the College Football team is making. Do better @EASPORTSCollege #CFBPlayDontPay

If I wasn’t clear enough yesterday, I will never work with @EASPORTSCollege again if they don’t reverse these decisions. EA’s playbook will be to wait out the backlash. That’s why this conversation can’t stop. And trust me… we’re not the only ones who feel this way. #CFBPlayDontPay

Sneaking micro transactions into single player modes lets me know everything i need to about where EA wants to take both football titles in the future That’s why it’s now or never to make a change. Taking the game in that direction is going to ruin all of the support and love you have built from this community. Do what’s right @EASPORTSCollege #CFBPlayDontPay

I’ve been seeing a lot of what the community has been saying about creators like myself who got the game early but I can assure you we were not briefed on microtransactions entering the offline modes. In fact I heard that there would not be microtransactions entering these modes but I don’t remember who told me that explicitly. I also wasn’t even aware that coach XP settings had been changed as that is not something I’ve ever messed with as I typically keep things to default settings to mirror the experience of 90% of the user base. I don’t inherently have a problem with microtransactions as long as there is transparency and if people who have less time to grind want to pay for a headstart I don’t really care, it’s just something I would personally avoid. What I absolutely have a problem with is sneaking them in WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY TAKING OUT the XP progression speed that gave creative control for free. This is not something that should be locked behind a paywall and doing it in this way I think is not only shady but a sign of things to come where core features are pay to play. Dynasty has the potential to be the best mode in any sports game and doing things like this “behind our backs” is not something we should accept. The greatness of this mode is that it is not like ultimate team. Go charge those guys whatever, it’s a pay to play mode. You win. But do not bring this pay to play model to what is at its core, an offline mode. It’s disappointing and we deserve better @EASPORTSCollege #CFBPlayDontPay

You guys know where I stand on this…. Not only did they add micro transactions, but they also sneakily removed the settings to gain Coach XP. This has effectively ruined custom coach builds, which is one of the biggest components of Dynasty Mode. You’re now forced to either pay up or have a bad coach. CFB 27 Dynasty has massive potential and was one of the most hyped launches I’ve seen in a while. The gameplay, new features, and all the quality of life changes are great. It’s a shame that the micro transactions and sneaky setting changes are ruining the sentiment around an otherwise great game. Give us back the Faster and Fastest Coach XP settings. #CFBPlayDontPay
