You can play against friends on Madden Ultimate Team, you just get a minuscule amount of coins for the game. 2K should do the same thing.

I treat online vs. offline separately. Some people play online, some don't. Taking a mode online may be a big deal but the mode itself was not changed. If you can't differentiate that and would rather mistakenly accuse people of lying, be my guest.

Or, if you'd like to go another path and come up with a reasonable argument that the mode (not whether it's online or offline) received improvements, I'd love to hear it.

I'm not expecting, well....anything. But I'd be fascinated to read such an imaginative response.

This will be my last post on the subject, though. I voiced my thoughts on the MyTeam mode and now, things are being taken off-topic.

So, because you don't think it qualifies, then that's that? How about this: if the FRANCHISE team works on a mode that has FRANCHISE in the mode name, then it qualifies. Doesn't take THAT much of an imagination now does it? That was their franchise update whether you like it or not.

Thats a 2K priority problem not fans problem imo you can't say adding a new mode in the online Association constitutes as a addition to the existing offline association especially of the perspective to the consumer. The only way I'd say you could would be if you could convert an offline one into online and vis versa.

I mean to put it in perspective if next year 2k decided to take mycareer and make a full online version of the mode and did nothing even aesthetically to improve the existing mycareer they're would be a severe backlash from the offline people who played the hell out the previous yrs myplayers and will have to deal with any bugs and no improvements for another yr.

I guess the point is even if the Association team worked on the online last yr you'd think a company smart as 2K would realize

"hey maybe not everyone interested in offline is interested ready or willing to make the commitment to play a 82 game online Assoication. Lets fix the existing problems and broken AI and features that never worked right then work on a OA."

Says who? Sorry. That's your opinion and your problem. Neither of you make the game, so you have no idea how implementing the online franchise relates to offline. You guys act like putting in online is just a function call.

Online franchise was wanted and the franchise team had to do it. If they didn't have time to make major changes to base franchise, the you have to accept that. It is what is it. You can take it or leave it.

And if I recall, the trade engine was rewritten. You can't possibly sit there and say nothing was done to the base franchise logic.
