What to expect in future EA Sports College Football 25 updates

EA Sports shared the issues the team has been working on through these updates on the EA Answers HQ website. The problems are incorrect audio, inaccurate logos, Dynasty Mode fixes and Team Builder.

Regarding incorrect audio, the wrong commentary was played when players entered their first game in Dynasty Mode at Utah. EA Sports is also trying to resolve an issue involving Florida State's War Chant and Tennessee's "Rocky Top" not playing correctly on Xbox Series S.

EA Sports is also working on issues with the logos for several conferences and teams in EA Sports College Football 25. Stanford, UMass, Western Michigan, Jacksonville State, FIU and New Mexico's logos are not displaying correctly. The Southeastern Conference and CUSA and Sun Belt Conferences also had issues with logos.

Further, EA Sports is working on a solution for incorrect equipment branding in Dynasty Mode for UTEP and Wyoming. The largest fix for Dynasty Mode includes the super sim logic tuning. Fans experienced issues with FCS schools upsetting many Power 5 schools, creating an unrealistic feel to the mode.

Also, the super sim logic tuning is supposed to improve the Top 25 Polls and the College Football Playoff seedings for more realistic scenarios. The Team Builder issue is Play Now has the created team's cleats set to Adidas and not the specific brand set by the user.

Players have also encountered an issue involving a second custom image layer that failed to appear on the field of their created team. The team is working on a solution for this problem. In the meantime, their workaround suggests adding a generic image as a second layer and re-selecting the custom image you'd like to include on the field.
