There is offline. Connected Careers can be played both online and offline.

If you can do it offline then it can be done online too. Pretty much what everyone wants, both online and offline get the same thing, everyone's happy.

My interest in this game went down to almost none now. I have 0 desire for this mode. I just want to control my franchises and play my seasons. I like to control multiple franchises to run things how i'd like and because i enjoy playing as many games and teams as possible.

I'm still confused about progression as a coach.

I get that I need to complete goals to earn XP that in-turn buys me upgrades and what not. But, what about my players? Do they gain their own XP for playing games?

All the XP I gain as a coach, along with buying packages would I also need to spend it on making my players better?

Trying to upgrade a 53 man roster along with buying packages seems like a LOT of XP would be needed.

Like I say, I'm very confused. lol

Would love to see a video showing player progression as a coach.

This might just be EA's best gimmick move since the DPP last year!!!

Not interested in either mode. Will never even look at it. Still waiting for an online franchise that can be played with as little as 2 human players with full stat tracking for cpu controlled teams. Does this years Madden have that?

Don't care about Twitter...I never look at it and have no intention of looking at it.

EA please give me some details about online franchise.

I'm 100% with you. This is typical EA...the more things change the more they stay the same.
