New update changes everything, and the game’s (mostly) way better for it.
Way better animations, create a team, improved graphics, basic player customization, a *way* better scouting system, it’s all here.
That said, it *does* have some big problems, though it’s still objectively a lot better now.
Number 1, the UI is way clankier now, to it’s detriment to be honest. In the old version with coaches for instance, you’d have a clean list of every coach and their position, that you could easily tap on and manage. Instead you have to press an arrow to go through the coaches, making it pretty easy to miss when one of their contracts have expired or just to keep track of who’s running what.
Number 2, huge issue for on the field, at least when coaching, the clock *doesn’t run* when you have possession. Meaning QB kneels are completely useless and you have to take super unnecessary risks at the end of games to try and slowly cut down the clock.
Outside of that though, *really* good game. Absolutely worth your time, it looks *way* better than it used to.
