Cloud / 32-TM Control

[Coper3000]

I hate to clog forums with a simple question, but I’m having a hard time figuring out (after much searching) how to have 32-team control with the “cloud” feature on. Unlike “offline mode”, I’m not even sure it’s possible. Usually on X1 I could simply click the right trigger and it would essentially let me pick which franchise I wanted to control for a short while. Now, it simple has notifications, social feed, etc.

Is it possible somehow to run a “online” franchise using one person to control 32 teams, or am I destined for a offline-mode for such?

Thank you in advance.

Not possible unfortunately. Unless you have 31 active online xbox live memberships

Ah, thank you kindly for the quick response. That’s what I feared. Haha. Are there any “features” to be missed out on while being offline? I assume “updates” could be incorporated to cloud franchises?

Actually, the news they just released is that all offline franchises get the updates too and a few people just confirmed that it worked for them. Only upside to a cloud CFM is that simming can be a bit quicker if you're going far into the future. I personally have been using cloud leagues for a few years, but I regret doing it because when the servers are down you can't play a cloud league - even if it's a solo league.


Offline is probably best. You can do 32 team control. You can have multiple save files. Now that updates apply to offline leagues that's totally the way to go. EA's servers have been down two weekends in a row so playing a cloud CFM wouldn't even have been possible.

This has honestly been one thing that’s annoyed the crap out of me for several years. If I want to do a cloud league by myself I should be able to do 32 team control. Or, as I usually run into, I should be able to start a cloud league from start today and be able to transfer it offline for 32 team control.

Unfortunately not. Really wish there was, but as of now I usually just start a new one every 2 weeks or so with updates stats etc. the best I can do for 32 team control is retire and create a new character for every team. It’s time consuming and the CPU will still make silly FA signings but it’s not too bad. The worst part is the off-season cuz then you can’t control the CPU as much.

Thanks everyone for answering. Unfortunately, it seems a few others wish this was a feature. It was also good to note that future franchise updates will be included.

One of the ways we do it is I have a extra paid account and we invite them to the league then we can make the moves we want. Then after that you can either boot them from the league and re-invite to the next team or go under users and retire the character and create a new one which will allow you to immediately switch to a new team.

The only thing is make sure you have coach firing off so even though it says that coach has retired or been fired that he really has not.
