Franchise Mode Still Giving Users No Control

[zbreezy100]

I play the game solely as an offline franchise guy and madden puts so much into the online franchise experience, that offline franchises are laid out the exact same way. In an offline franchise it shouldn't matter wether the user wants to play games with his user controlled team or a cp controlled team.

Users aren't granted the opportunity to play key games like the super bowl or a thanksgiving day matchup if they aren't controlling that specific team which should be irrelevant for an offline franchise.

Even if the user does control a specific team like the cowboys, for the thanksgiving day game the user can't switch to the opponent to make them wear a throwback uniform as both teams often do on those Holliday games. When will EA give us some control back?

I have found a workaround for that. I turn on my second controller and then use it to change the cpu's uniform to which ever one I want. After that I move the second controller back to the middle and then turn off that controller. When I get into the game it saves the uniform I selected.

Never thought of this… thanks man I'll try it but it only fixes half of the problem

I get why they are so specific on online franchise I just don't see why they can't make it simple for offline users as NCAA was without having to take the time to select all 32 teams and then mess with their team settings. Glad I found others who agree.

I think, for better or worse, they are really trying to get away from offline franchise. I wouldn't be surprised if down the road they remove it altogether. With online they're able to push server side updates without having to go through the Sony or Microsoft validation.

Not everyone is into the online franchises though

Madden will never be on Par with NBA 2k the customization they are giveing us this year is crazy.
