Actually I thought that was the best franchise mode top to bottom of all time for console games. Why they went away from it, I will never get. If I could get Head Coach's off the field depth and design with the current version of Madden on the field, I may never leave the house.

Well they told us that was the plan when the brought Looman back to create CFM, now CCM.

Looman is gone, and that was probably 6 Madden strategic plans (i e, 3 development cycles) ago.

I for one never expect to start my franchise until a good set of sliders comes out and that could take 2 weeks. I Wonder if this will be resolved by then. I miss the old days of just getting the game and playing. There's to much behind it all now but since I love CFM so much I wait it out.

I do have one concern. Given that we have seen some of the QA issues with madden 16, I hope that speeding up the patch process doesn't mean that QA suffers. I don't want to see them "rush" a patch that breaks as much as it fixes. It has happened in the past with them waiting "six weeks" to patch things I don't want to see that with this game as it seems like gameplay is taking positive steps.

Same here, they did some patching and gameplay tweaks back for NCAA a few years ago, that actually ruined my enjoyment of the game.

Some of these bugs are frustrating but I don't care. I'm playing and enjoying the game as it is. Maybe I am just a sucker for football but overall the gameplay is really good in my opinion. I'm on the fence about restarting my cfm after the bugs are fixed.

Lots of good play action plays and crossing routes. 2. My O-line can't block for the run so I have to throw a ton. 3. I fantasy drafted and Kevin White, DGB, Martavis Bryant, and Agholor are insanely fast and big so I rotate between them, throwing to whoever gets open. 4. Marriota's ridiculously inflated stats haha

Fair enough. I use the Broncos book and to me it seems its more of a grinding playbook then a run and gun type of book, so my drives take a little more time.

I have tons of posts here calling CFM the worst franchise mode in sports gaming history. I've bashed EA for not adding formation subs. I was leading the charge against EA when CFM didnt have 32 team control. Also dont attack me personally again or you will be gone.

Yet you can't get your point across without resorting to swearing? Yeah, ok.

Freebies!!! Hand 'em over, EA.

Did you buy the game this year?
