I am holding slim hope for a import player option into franchise.

Does anyone else hope they revamp the Draft ??
Just wish it was a lil more exciting if that makes
sense ....
Same with Playoffs games ....
Would be cool to see some jets fly over at begining
of game with some 1 singing the Natial Anthem ...
Lol ... Sounds good anyway #littlethings ...

I wish you could edit your draft picks after they've been signed, not after the next season starts.

This was mentioned a few years ago. Would definitely be nice to import players into and existing franchise. Even better if there was like a list on the left where you could check and a list on the right.

Hit import and replace players updated faces and scans. Even though year to year saves is a beautiful idea. I know some people start their franchise over once player models are updated the following year.

I know exactly this makes year to year saves pretty useless to me unless I wanna spend 30 mins with my phone taking a video of a player and editing him in franchise. so time consuming, nothing worse then starting a franchise and one of a veteran players is missing from your roster

a simple 2 second import option to fix this would be awesome, and make year to year saves more worthwhile to replace all the turned generic players

It's 2017 and it took until 2016 just to get career stat tracking. Still can't even view team stats in any useful manner...unless you can memorize everything internally as you scroll through.

And no minor league career stat tracking.

I doubt anything changed with stat tracking this year too.

Say what you want about the game and about me, but you have to admit, it's pretty crazy that it's 2017, the PS4...and we still don't have much in the way of useful stat tracking.

Maybe it will be announced later this week? Sure, but it's a bit naive to think that will be the case.

I have a big prediction. Big.

On the upcoming twitch developer stream there will be developers sitting on the couch and the flashing red lights will be deployed.

That's right. The flashing red lights. New feature announced. You heard it here first.

All I need from this franchise dev cycle is...


1. Expanded "owner" mode/financial system/more detailed contracts.

2. Rotating interleague schedules. Imagine being able to play every team in MLB after a few seasons!

3. Slightly more intelligent cpu roster management AI.


Even with 2 out of 3 on this list I am a happy camper considering all the other improvements (faces, bodies, personalization, equipment options, new commentary, stadium tagging, ball physics etc) this cycle.

Also, with the new sim options, this could be a game changer for people trying to play all 2430 via using the 'critical moments' feature. Probably not something I'll do, but it fills me with intrigue.
