In another thread, the "Next Gen X-Box" thread, the preview mentioned four player franchises. Now, I assume that this is for local play, not online, but I don't remember from 2K7 -- were you able to play online franchises' with friends, or at least, a 162-game season, but with computer controlled teams controlling the majority of teams, while users controlled just a handful?
I've always wanted an online franchise/season mode, and to play it with friends... so even though we may only control, say, four or five teams spread accross one division or one league (as in AL/NL), we'd play the majority of our games against the CPU teams like any other franchise, but handfuls of games against each other. With the right management (allowing, say, a player to play through a series before waiting for the others to catch up; and then forcing a simulation if games are missed by a certain date), I think that it'd be the logical addition for franchise and online play.
Any idea if that was possible, or something similar in 2K7, and whether it's been mentioned for 2K8?
