Do you want the ability to edit player attributes in the middle of your Franchise?

[xanmank]

In another thread, Ian mentioned we could edit everything about a player, while in the middle of our franchise, EXCEPT FOR attributes and contracts.


Would you want the ability to edit attributes while in mid franchise? This could either to make up for progression you think should have happened, or to coincide with roster updates if a player in your franchise does extremely well in real life but was rated low because they are a backup or rookie (like Matt Cassel or Steve Slaton).


Ian said its our game and we should be able to do whatever the hell we want, so I think editing attributes is art of that. If people want to cheat or take advantage of the CPU, thats their prerogative- its only hurting the realism of their own game.
So, what is everyone else's opinions?

I wouldn't use it unless progression was broken, but I know it's not this year, so I'm not concerned myself.

I personally see a Madden franchise as an 'alternate universe' franchise so whatever happens in M10's franchise stays in M10's franchise and what happens in real life, happens in real life. If your player is having a sucky year and that same player in real life is having an amazing year, it shouldn't affect your M10 player at all.

No not really. I think the system we got now is fine.

That should sum up this thread right there.

Its our franchise, we should be able to do what we want with it. If i want to make Tom Brady into the best WR in my franchise, i should be able to.

Altho i will say that, i think the ability to edit players equipment and the like is needed over the ability to edit ratings. We should have both tho, like NBA 2K9.

Just make Tom Brady a 99 WR before you start your franchise in your roster file.

haha, yea i know that, but what if i felt Brady got bored mid season, and wanted to become a great WR, i wouldnt be able to do that.


Just a quick note. I try to keep my franchise as accurate as possible to the real NFL, so i dont really have a need for crazy adjustments, but i still feel they need to be there for a few tweaks and what not.
