Okay, folks, let’s dive into how I figured out this mass substitution thing in College Football 25. It wasn’t super obvious at first, but once I cracked it, it felt pretty smooth.
My Struggle is Real
So, I jumped into a game, ready to dominate, and quickly realized my starters were getting gassed. I needed to get my second-string guys in, but I didn’t want to manually sub out each player one by one. That’s a recipe for disaster (and a lot of wasted time).
The “Aha!” Moment
I started poking around the play-calling menus, looking for anything that screamed “substitutions.” I messed with the right stick, thinking that might do something, that didn’t do anything useful for this.
Then while picking a play I pressed R1, which on Xbox is RB, and boom, a new menu screen came up. And guess what I did see? Yep you guessed it, a way to sub in every player on the field with fresh players.
Putting it to the Test
- I hit R1 (RB on Xbox) during the play call screen. I can’t stress this enough – it has to be before you’ve picked your play.
- The menu popped up. I did see, a fresh new set of players ready to go.
- I used that new menu. And just like that my new players were subbed in and ready to play.
The Sweet Taste of Victory (and Fresh Legs)
Once I figured this out, it was a game-changer. No more tired players dragging themselves up and down the field. My second-stringers got valuable playing time, and my starters got a breather. It was beautiful.
So, there you have it. My journey from confusion to mass substitution mastery. Hopefully, this helps you avoid the frustration I went through and keeps your team fresh and dominant!
