I just can't anymore. I finished an online franchise game against the Falcons, which I won by a TD in the final 2 minutes of regulation, only to exit out of the game to a message saying along the lines of "Could not reach EA Servers at this time" which bounced me back out to the main home screen... something I could TOTALLY let slide, if it weren't for the fact that online franchises don't auto save unless you reach the main franchise screen after a played game.

Once I got the game connected back to EA's servers, much to my expectancy, I loaded my franchise up, only to find the game against the Falcons hadn't been played yet and didn't count.

If you're going to "recommend" that users choose "online" franchise, please do your best from now on to prevent such things from happening. Nothing breaks me more than finishing a well earned win, only to find out said win didn't register due to "server issues".

FYI, you robbed my QB of 4 TD passes. He ended up with 0 after the 11-7 "makeup" win after ending the original with 4.

this is why i always do offline franchise if possible. i can never trust the servers.

Ill knock on wood here, but i can count on one hand the number of times ive lost a game due to that rating back to he inception of the ncaa football dynasty website.

A few games froze on me last year when backing out of a finished game, but each time my results were saved.

Sotimes i wonder, since you see an issues so few and far between that its not an internet provider issue instead.

Anyhow it truly sucks to have happen, i guess thats why you have options.

I had this happen to me multiple times in madden 16 and i just simmed the games that it happened in because I didn't want to have to continuously replay the same game over and over again.

This has happened to me a couple times. Madden is the only game I have server problems with.

It's even worse in mut because you lose contracts.

Another great madden experience

I had this problem a lot in the last two madden but luckily haven't seen it this time.

I've played hundreds of online CFM games in the past few years, and have never once had this issue...

You guys may want to check your connections. I play with a wired connection, which may help.
