I simply don't care about online franchise and it doesn't fit what I want. Having to wait for others to schedule games, arguing over what difficulty or slider set should be used (I like my own tweaks) isn't for me and I don't use this feature. I've played one online game in the last three years (for ANY sport).

I do recognize that many people love this feature but are we even certain that online franchise isn't in Madden this year?

your missing out man. ive done multiplayer dynasty since ncaa 98 and is the main reason NCAA's Dynasty mode has been one of the greatest features of any sports game. now with it online its another level. i dont know why you would think there are probs like that in them. this great news about the confrences. something that has been asked for since i can remember. good addition. getting worked up in march because of what your hearing or not hearing is a little overdone. most of what madden gets ncaa will to. they havent said anything about the madden features this week being added so i would guess that either its just not in or only limited portions of it. the other reason could be that what they are adding and spending their time on uses some of this but is a larger scale and dont want the cat out of the bag. remember they said they didnt add the qb's new ratings because the used the resourses to add something specific for NCAA. It's only march so i would wait a while before getting to worried about anything. NCAA's OD's were the biggest fluff ever added to NCAA and the greatest feature that could of ever been implemented. did it for 10 years prior passing around memory cards and uploading the files on the cpu and then downloading them with sharkports and having to wait for one person at a time. i think this year we'll get the solid game play no question. Hell even if your a traditional guy this should be a big feature for you. Arkansas back with the big 12 teams. get the big east back to normal. maybe im older and think traditional is something different but myself and im sure alot of other guys feel it was needed to actually fix some crappy changes made to conferences over that last 25 years.

My question is: Is this for both online and offline dynasties or is it only online?

You don't have to accept the invite. Only human controlled teams get conference invites as well.

If you can use it for offline dynasty then will you be able to do conference changes after the season or is it a one time deal at the beginning of the dynasty and it goes back to the conference invite deal of past years??? and finally in another thread I asked Adam if the new "TC" (texture compositor) will allow for the conference logos to change when changing conferences and he said it could be used for that as well... So will the TC be utilized for custom conferences?? I would hate to move BYU or Utah to the Pac-10 and they still have a MWC logo on the field.

You can only set up your custom conferences at the beginning of a dynasty. It is available for offline but the main idea behind this was allowing online dynasties to put all their teams in one conference.

Unfortunately we won't have the field logos updating this year.

Well I figured it was focused towards online dynasties... But I am glad you guys carried it over to offline dynasties.

Wish the field logos could change.. But Ive ignored them for many years now... Another year wont hurt.
