EA Sports hasn’t published a college football video game since NCAA14 debuted ahead of the 2013-14 season, and a lot has changed in the college football world since then. So with EA Sports debuting a new college football game in 2023, the company is doing everything it can to make a modern simulation of the modern game.
As a result of the vastly different college football landscape, EA Sports is including several new features in the new version of the famous college football game. And one of those new additions to the game might be a little annoying and controversial to some fans and gamers.
According to Chris Vannini of The Athletic, EA Sports College Football 24 – the new edition of the famous college football game – will include the NCAA transfer portal.
Something not the story that I heard from game makers is that making a game is very hard and you have to constantly think about how someone will try to break the game.
Like not letting a user get every top transfer, for example. https://t.co/T4efDptPQT https://t.co/bUv7dX2BC9

The addition of the transfer portal into the game makes sense as it’s become an important part of college football in recent years. But that doesn’t mean all fans are going to love the new feature. And some are already making jokes about pointing out some potential flaws with the portal’s inclusion.
what’s stopping me from going to bama then grad transferring d-3 and rushing for 4000 yards in a season

"one of your players is upset and may leave, would you like to buy a $4.99 NIL deal to keep him happy"?

I already know I’m going to throw my controller through my tv when I do a “sim to week 10” and my starting QB decides to transfer without my say.
Can’t wait for this game. https://t.co/L8dviNdRgw
