Thats the way I enjoy playing Madden, NCAA, NBA 2K, NHL 2K, MLB The Show, etc I've tried it with just one team in a Franchise in EA's NHL (cause thats the only way they allow it) and let me tell you something...it gets stale and boring pretty quickly So please save your stupid remarks to share with your friends that play the way you are insinuating....because those of us on this board arent stupid and we DO like more Flexibility and Control rather then LESS as a video game like this one matures over the years I DO NOT like this move at all and want EA to KNOW IT. Can you FATHOM that?

Amen, amen, amen!!!!!!!!!

I thought I would never say this in all the years I've read from the forum. But I really believe this will stop me from buying '13.

I just have no use for a single team season.

You could always play franchise together with other people. Why do you think 32 team control was in the game? So 32 individuals could sit down at one console and play against each other, as highly unlikely as that was or any combination of players and teams between 1 team: 32 players and 32 teams : 1 player.

I honestly don't see a problem with this. I don't understand why someone wants to control every team in the league. When I play with a certain team, I want to feel as if that team is MY team and have pride in playing with them and only them. I like to build my team up from nothing to a dynasty. If I played as if I where on every team, I would feel disconnected from the simulation of being loyal to one team as a player or coach would in real life thus losing the experience... Plus... That **** would take forever to complete a single season! I have a full time job and a family. I don't have that kind of time lol

are you guys really gonna get bent out of shape over this? its common sense lol if you do career mode with a created coach or player then obviously you shouldnt be able to control/play other teams games. if they had this effect just a franchise game then i could see the argument and reason to get upset but it makes sense to me that you aren't able to play other teams games in ccm mode.

He would start a franchise with his kids, each picking a team, then they would handle only their team. It allows for one to screw the other(s) over because they aren't completely separate franchises, but assuming you are on the honor system or ensure that there is more than 1 person in the room at the time to prevent tampering with other teams you could essentially treat it as an offline 'online franchise'.

This is by far the worse headline I've ever read on OS. Sad, sad day.

what you guys fail to realize is, the majority of their market will not care about the inability to do all these intricate changes.

also in their pursuit of "realism", to the average fan, this model that they are giving most resembles realism.

in what world can you control everyone else moves?

if you were just going to control every team, and be able to do all roster edits etc... why even buy a new game? just add the players in your previous title, because you were not gonna be satisfied with the ratings or any other roster info they put anyway

There were a ton of problems in 12 where the CPU would make terrible moves or unrealistic moves (like the Raiders cutting Pryor). There was also a rash of CPU AI keeping terrible, low rated UDFA or whatever they were called.

Doing a 32 team franchise eliminated the idiocy of the AI and kept everything fair. The user had a huge advantage over the AI in 12. It was one of the main reasons I traded it in.
