Sounds like player mode in CFM could be a focus next year, what do you guys hope for?

[timhere1970]

I want a full immersion coach mode. I haven't heard from my owner in twenty years. Owners should occasionally interfere. Want you to draft a certain player, sign a free agent, resign a player. Don't listen at your own peril. Should be happiness ratings of owners, fans, players that cause you to lose your job. Want position coaches and coordinators that affect progression along with player work ethic and intelligence. Would love to be able to start as a position coach and work my way up. Would only be able to control players of your position and have input on draft, resigning and free agents of your position. Work up to head coach through success as position coach, then coordinator to head coach. Then with success demand GM responsibilities. When you are fired, you could then go back to being a coordinator and work for your next shot instead of having to retire a couple years after winning a super bowl.

Player personalities and team chemistry. Holdouts/contract disputes and players requesting to be traded. CPU teams benching starters if they don't perform well.

am i the only one that thinks they are already preparing to disappoint this year and put boundaries on next year? can i have a game that mimics the game it's supposed to?

I'd hope it is similar to NBA 2k5 or NBA 2k or even NCAA RTG. I agree with everything ThatMichiganFan said. I'd just hope their is cut scenes or SOMETHING to make it differentiate from regular CFM.

In NCAA RTG, I liked the aspect of growing your player to be able to call audibles, or call your own plays. In 2k, I enjoy seeing the immersion of the player you created by having sponsorship, interviews, or selecting agents.

I'd like to see it done how NBA 2k handles their association mode. You're the GM and the owner give you goals in the beginning of season( win x amount of home games, play x player x amount of minutes, make the playoffs, aquire or trade a first round draft pick), then throughout the season he calls you in with more goals depending on what's going on during the season( trade x player, don't get swept in this series, sellout the next home game). Your success or failure is tied to your job security.

Obviously this is far-fetched but...I dream of a day when I can start a league up with my buddies and basically just play however we want. So if I wanted to be the offensive coordinator and another guy wanted to be the defensive coordinator on the same team, let it happen! Say one guy wants to just coach or be the owner, but 3 (or more) other guys want to play as actual players on that team, let that be an option. Then if the guy who wanted to coach he could just drop in to play or maybe just call the plays, run the offense/defense.

It would be crazy to have 2 users be your coordinators calling plays, while the other users are the ones actually performing out on the field. This would also appeal to all sorts of different players, the guys who don't necessarily want to play defense or the ones who just like the coaching/managing aspects. There are so many scenarios that could happen, I just think that would add so much depth and variety to what otherwise becomes a stale franchise mode after about a season or two in my opinion.

That would be my first vote. How about actually fix and finish out what we already have first, before adding something else that needs worked on for 3 years. Lets finish out adding back all the things that has been taken out over the years, or just broken , or just needing to be added already but hasnt been before we go adding something else .Please for the love of CFM. Dont bother asking like what. This whole thread , and many others have listed so much CFM is already missing,broken,needed , taken out , etc there is plenty to choose from. CFM needs to Focus on all that first and foremost since they have such limited time each year. Then once they get all that down and right, start adding new modes to it. Now there is a grand idea....

No sir , you're not the only one.If that is the focus ( as was UI redo and new scouting this year)what i hear in this statement is, next year - CFM - New player mode and 1 other thing ( that didnt need fixing) will be our big main things we get time to do .Im already seeing this writing on the wall.
