We were just doing the "save locally" option that comes up after an advancement. I hadn't converted it to offline, but I'll try that and then try to convert online again. The question is whether or not the other participant will be able to connect to it afterward, but I guess we'll find out. I'll update here.

This worked, thanks for the heads up. Even with this workaround, I'm loathe to get involved with a 12-person dynasty like we planned (at least until it's fixed), but our 2-man is going forward.

What are the logistics of this? How would me & my 4 player dynasty do this? Do all of us have to convert the game to an offline dynasty every week and then upload it to an online one or just the commissioner?

A little further detailed explanation by someone would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Go to the second page and look for my thread on preventing problems in online dynasties...hopefully it helps people out.

Nope. But you can retire from one team and have your commissioner invite you to whatever team you would like to change to.

Ok I don't want to accuse anyone of withholding information, but what about the media dynasty that got started and was not updated after week 2? Was this a problem before, was the beta version bug free, or did EA have them sign non-disclosure agreements about possible serious bugs like this? I'm not saying EA sold a bug filled game on purpose, I'm just saying was this a CYA moment, so Steve could not say something, and EA thought they could fix it. I know EA tests the game but it seems odd to me this info was not out at the same time as the roster problem, or before the roster problem, because of the media OD. And hey I'm not trying to get everyone all pissed off, I'm just wondering if anyone has info on the media OD, or why this is just coming out within the last week and a half or so.

I've had the same issues on my 360 OD Dynasty. All i can figure is it seems that Dynasties are being overwritten on the EA side of things. Which if this si the case I'm disappointed that they didn't think of putting ina simple Check and reject function for names that were the same. I can see though how that might be missed in testing. I just can;t see how it would be left out of the coding. The only other problem I have had besdies being locked out of the dynasty is one eprson had won a game and when we advanced the game ended up having a different result liek it had simmed for him.

I am really hoping there is a fix soon. This was the one reason i was so excited for this game.

Played my first game in my Dynasty and then checked out my stats afterwards from the Dynasty menus. My individual stats are fine, as is the score. But the team stats screen is all wrong. For example I rushed for 125 yards (101 & 24) with 2 guys and 30 attempts. But the team stats show 79 yards rushing and 18 attempts, no one else has even played a game at this point.

There is no way this thing was tested.
