At first I was ticked about having to restart my online but I think I understand why now. If you have already started it the stats are already out of whack and the changes they have made won't make a difference until the next season.

Actually, looking at FAM CEO's posts it appears the currently started leagues are already fixed. Hmm.

Online league have to auto save just because of the structure of multiple users etc..
Wouldn't be optimal if every user was required to save after everything they do etc..
Totally makes sense for online leagues.

I hope they address this before they put out a patch for offline, I hate to see players with 120 catches and an 11 yard average. That number is crazy, not all the players should be like that. Some, maybe not all of them though. It's like every team is using the short passing system. I really hope this all gets fixed, I'm ready to play an offline franchise.

I would invite you to check out Wes Welker's ypc for the years he had over 100 catches. His ypc averages between 10 and 13.

I totally get that for online leagues. I was speaking more of using it as a single person franchise. I like have backup save points in case of any accidental sim ahead issues.

The bad news - I just spend the last two nights working on an offline roster with 32 team control that now seems like a waste of time.

The good news - The majority of the stats that I've seen posted seem pretty damn good. Not having QB's throw for 5000 yards every year isn't really a problem to me, the same thing with having WR's a few yards away from last years averages. Those problems are about a 1 or 2 on a ten point scale too me. The punting averages are even less concerning that that. Honestly, I don't think I've even paid attention to the punting numbers, in Madden or in real life.

My questions -
How's the CPU's AI in regards to cutting players?
Are they cutting 3rd and 4th round draft picks that were just signed?
Also, how does the player movement look?
Are players like Andrew Luck being let go?
How are older QB's like Big Ben and Romo doing (especially after Year 1)?
And lastly, are teams stockpiling QB's?

On PS4 the only way I know to do it is by creating 32 PSN profiles. You would need 32 email address and probably 32 Origin accounts, as well. Of course, you would have to log out and sign in to PSN every time you wanted to change teams. That seems like a lot of work to me.

I'm hoping that the Online Franchise AI just works well enough for me to have an enjoyable single player experience without jumping through a lot of hoops or getting overly annoyed.

So if we create a one player online CFM this will be fixed, right? Might do that since it's not fixed for offline yet.

Seems like regression doesn't work I simmed about 12 years into an online cfm and Suh is a 99 at 39 years old while Calvin is 95 ovr at 40
 
# 92 Richuation @ 08/30/14 10:26 PM
Yeah, I wouldnt say fixed, but improved.

A look ahead 10 years has some interesting results. But hey, its a game.

Well at least I won't have to worry about Big Ben retiring on me at the age of 33-34 this time around lol

Yeah, that's good but it seems everybody plays until around 38-40 when there's really not that much longevity in the NFL.

Anyone have any luck identifying if these are still issues? I can live with an online CFM until the Offline is patched, but this is still a huge issue that is preventing me from buying it up to this point.

If I may ask, what exactly is the big problem with offline stats? I haven't seen a definitive paragraph on the causes/effects. Is it really THAT bad, or is it (what I deem as normal) OS sky is falling/game is broken/unplayable ranting lmao?! I'm already in my offline CFM and I really don't have any plans on stopping it or starting over unless the issue just absolutely CANNOT be overlooked.

One sim had one 4,000 yard passer and Peyton had like 13 TDs playing 16 games lol
