And if you had coaching staffs that mattered it would make something like having a practice squad actually matter as well.

Small issue that I just thought of though..in all games seen so far..no sign of OC and/or DC on sideline..which kind of leads me to think no assistant coaches

in madden 25 his "real" overall rating is around the 80 range and in cfm his rating is almost 90 (89) so im hoping that 81 overall is the "real" number in cfm

Thank goodness. Very happy about this. Upgrading was a pain before

Level 2 = 50%
Level 3 = 75%
Level 4 = 100% (users that want max XP)

I think a lot of issues that people have could be resolved with working gameplay sliders and more flexibility built into the settings area of the game. If the sliders worked and XP was adjustable and people could edit players completely at anytime it would nice.
Maybe a concept similar to NCAA's coach skill tree system, where you could set how slow/fast your coach progressed, could be implemented for the xp system. Being able to "slow" down how fast/much the user earns xp would come in handy if the cpu doesn't earn/utilizes xp properly, or for those players that feel the amount of xp earned causes players to progress too fast.

At any rate, not having to upgrade 1 point at a time was one of my must haves for CFM/franchise. I would like to see them modify the xp system a little further to only being able to utilize xp to upgrade attributes associated with earning it, but this is a step in the right direction.

I just don't see how having a practice squad would matter if the only way to gain XP is playing time and drills. The idea of only being able to coach (train) a small % of your team each week is just bizarre to me. With this XP system you lose the surprise development of players like teams see from backups and practice squad players.

Very happy about this, upgrading could take up to an hour with the hold system. Not to mention I do it by position, and it would always go back to "All" when I finished with a player.

I didn't buy last years, but I'd imagine the process was similar to how it was in Madden 13. The way I did it was establish a set number of XP (I can't remember what the number was) and if a player had more than that, I'd spend em. If a player had less, I wouldn't worry about him (until of course he accumulated enough). It came out to upgrading 5-8 players a week, so it only took a few minutes.
