Will you play more OFFline or ONline franchise?

Which do you prefer?


I personally will not touch online franchise, but I'm happy for the people who wanted it in the game. I'm a just dieing to have some offline franchise info- thankfully we have a few more days of E3.

Re: Will you play more OFFline or ONline franchise?

personally I couldn't care less about online franchise. offline franchies is what it's all about, and I'm starting to get worried that they sacrificed the needed updates/changes/additions to offline franchise in order to include online franchise...hopefully not, I will be so pissed.

I have given online many of chances. I'll play online the first day..after that i'll be done. people usually ruin the experience by at least the 20th day.

I'll be an offline guy.

I can see how online franchise would be great if you had enough friends to play it with and if it was set up right.

I will probably check it out, but I like offline, I only like online for simple matches, in any game.

Re: Will you play more OFFline or ONline franchise?

Offline...I enjoy playing the CPU AI when it comes to seasons. It is sort of like action type games but to "beat the game" you have to win the Super Bowl.

I like playing against people in exibition mode only.

Not to hate on the new feature, but I don't think people truely realize how much work is going to go into having an online league with more than 2-3 people in it. The logistics of it will be pretty tough to pull off in order to play more than 2 or 3 seasons. Another thing, with a longer schedule than that of NCAA and conflicting schedules between all the users, some seasons may last 3 months to complete.

I hope I am wrong and the feature ends up being a hit. The key to a successful online franchise will be to recruit dedicated ballers and non-cheesers and to limit it to no more than 3 or 4 participants. I can guarantee you that a 32 team online league in which every game is played will never happen. The odds of that happening are pretty slim.

I am not into playing against people for various reasons and those reasons grow with online franchise.

I love offline franchise and that is where I will play.

I would think that in order for certain parts of online franchise to work, they would have had to enhance or tweak areas of franchise mode as a whole.

I think the process of free agency for one should be a little different now.

Same here...I am big on realism and the CPU AI plays the most realistic fashion of football. I can never get a "real" game against a human opponent. A human opponent always does a thing or two that irks the hell out of me because of it's unrealistic nature.
