UDFA issue is an absolute Franchise mode killer. How is this not addressed?

it wasn't limited to ncaa draft classes, it affected generated classes as well as udfa's. this was the year for offline franchise. along with player models, the draft logic, re-signing, cutting players logic is still an issue that is being ignored.

i agree, who really wants to control all 32 teams if they don't have too. it takes too much time to go through each team and resign players, cut, draft, put players on ir to free up roster spaces. franchise should of gotten more attention in general.

I can't believe the UDFA/Sign logic issues weren't fixed, guess I'll be trading Madden in now.

I agree, they SHOULD have patched this.

But lets not get crazy here.

You can edit all the UDFA's to be either Kickers or Punters each pre-season. This causes the CPU's AI to cut those guys.

It takes about 30-45 minutes each pre-season. Filter each CPU's team roster by contract value before each pre-season and edit all guys with a 310k-1Yr contract to be a Punter or Kicker. The CPU then see's them at rated "OVR 0" and knows to cut them.

Voila. You dont have to do 32 team control.

We shouldn't have to spend an extra hour sorting out a mess because EA didn't patch a major issue with the AI's logic.

It's our job to play the game, not fix a broken mess before we can actually play it.

I appreciate the hard work the Dev team did to get this out, with that being said, there are several issues that were not addressed. Honestly most of this patch is dealing with online and cosmetic fixes. Now maybe it's just not possible to fix a lot of what is wrong with the game play without rebuilding it from scratch. Rest assured I won't be buying it in the future.

I will add one note here, it doesn't appear the offline franchise issue with cpu games not simming has been fixed. This game is unplayable with that issue being there.

I dont think we should either. I think this should have been fixed.

My comment was more directed to the guy who said it was a "game killer" for him.

I was merely letting him know there was a way for his game to not be killed.
