As always excellent work by ea, the patch made the scoreboard dissappear pre snap, so you have no play clock...just what I'd expect from them
They 'fixed' the TeamBuilder crowd & equipment issue and in so doing broke it for the thousands who used work-arounds.
EA is bad at this shit. At least
some communication would have helped. Say hey, we're working on fixing this issue so people like me don't start entirely new franchises to bodge the broken crowd/gear colors instead of being mum until dropping an update that suddenly turned my home games from looking like a Texas game to a Texas A&M game

Now I have to decide if starting over again is worth it or not while at the end of season 3. Doing a Montana throwback (copper & gold) TeamBuilder has been a massive headache...which is incredibly frustrating because the jerseys look
so damn good and have from the start. It's just that the crowd was entirely beige at first, then I updated it with a shade of red that had frustrated someone else because their crowd was orange - Syracuse orange was close enough to burnt orange/copper to be a significant upgrade over beige...but now with the update the crowd and equipment is a deep crimson red. Even that would sorta work if that's all that changed because it's reasonably near Montana's usual maroon primary...but it also updated my edited mustardy gold secondary color and turned it orange so the crowd has the same colors as Virginia Tech's...the ugliest color combination in CFB IMO. Awesome.
FWIW this is what I based it on. I darkened the colors to look better in-game as everything looked too beige on my first attempt.
Attached is what things look like in-game. Hardly enough to ruin the game...and it still looks a
lot better than everything being beige like it did on the first try (even when using Texas's burnt orange, which is what Montana calls copper). Incidentally the change just so happened to take place in time for me to play Virginia Tech at home. I thought the crowd color was a bug
I really hope they get the Team Builder issues worked out for future versions. The lack of generic stadiums, team intros, fight songs, etc. is absolutely absurd...but the tools that are there are, generally,
really good and have kept me interested so far. It just sucks that an update dropped and suddenly my crowd is a different color with no way for me to fix it without starting a new file.
