Was/has there been any franchise info released?

Re: Was/has there been any franchise info released?

I am glad others are as passionate about this as I am. I could care less about practicing in an offline franchise mode. I was so happy with Madden 12 when you could go in and upload your draft class. Then afterwards, edit the players in that draft class.

I am tired of hearing all of this garbage about the glotches and bugs this will cause, because lets be honest, no one really knows what that means. Additionally, it is an easy fix. It is not like we are asking for an overhaul of the entire franchise mode. We just want to add this one thing to allow us to make our dynasty a little more realistic.

NO MORE DeVontarious Chang as the number 1 draft pick!!!

Hate to be the bearer of bad news and this is by NO MEANS a final answer but...

@ClintOldenburg Hoping we hear something about create a draft class for Madden 15 or even edit draft class. Its a must feature at this point

@theraidersedge Highly, highly unlikely.

It's also been confirmed by Clint that there will be no CPU vs. CPU in offline CFM.

This could be huge sorry to say..can't wrap my head around this with no NCAA..EA made draft classes have been unrealistic since the beginning..someone with programming background..can u explain why this would be so hard to do..and by "do" I mean edit draft classes or at least edit players?

Why does this not surprise me.... I guess having a realistic dynasty after the first year is not an option with EA.... smfh

It likely wouldn't be a matter of difficulty (outside of disabling custom draft class player story lines a la NCAA draft class import and expanding the player editing interface to allow for editing of player scheme / development / predictability / etc. settings), it's a matter of EA Austin's priorities for CFM.

Assuming no CFM draft class editing - which we really don't know either way yet for sure - it would be apparent that EA Austin didn't feel that draft class editing was a priority over any other features they added this year.

It would be nice to know what other CFM features (if any) were added that have a higher priority. As far as I know, the only CFM confirmed feature worked on is practice.

I get your points on EA's "process".... but they should realistically be able to do something beyond "nothing" !

Sure I want all the editing abilities I can get for Draft classes (or anything really), and can understand if it was not a priority to EA to overhaul their whole system... But they should be able to give use something like....

Let us edit..
Names
Profile Pics
Faces
Skin Colors
Body Sizes

I "hate" when I draft a player and his Picture is a guy with a shaven head....and in the game he has Dreads !

Such a pet peeve of mine, this kind of stuff totally ruins the game for me !!

(This example is one of many I can make !! .... but if they allowed the editing, this would fix them all)

Given that there's an entire studio separate from EA Tiburon dedicated to working on the mode, I assume that they have done something substantial, haha.

Beyond that I'm in the same position you are, just waiting for any news to drop.

I would also like to know what they worked. As I mentioned in another thread if ea has a location just for cfm, what have they been doing all year. And I'm guessing practice mode will be similar to the training mode they've added

I'm not as optimistic as you are about it, but I sure hope so. I only do offline franchise so this is really important to me. You already know what some of my issues are with the current CFM.

I sure hope you are right. There is 1 1/2 months to go before release. So there is time for CFM news to be released.

My concern is that this year it was all about MUT for the Austin studio, seeing as how that same location handles MUT, if I'm not mistaken. That would certainly explain why news about CFM has been so sparse in comparison to the last two years, was likely time to focus on their money maker and just "tune" areas of CFM. I fully expect some big much ado about nothing, hyping CFM's improved practice mode, smh.

Looks like I'm sticking to my PS3 and Madden 25 with created rookies for another year. As much as I like the defensive improvements, I'm more of an offline franchise guy and enjoy rebuilding teams. I was hoping for this so I can have the actual 2015 draft class. Plus at this point, it seems there will be no vast improvement to it so Madden 25 and the PS3 it is.

Re: Was/has there been any franchise info released?

I was the one who tweeted that to Clint, He's an awesome guy who always responds to fans. But this is without a doubt heart breaking news. franchise mode is really just a 1 year deal and that's it.... I can't play with these made up names. Its how I feel. Its very disappointing, lets hope something will change.

I can't wait to find out what they have added this year to CFM. I would like to know what things they see as a priority over editable draft classes. If they didn't add that much to CFM then I don't know what to say. They have a group of people who only work on CFM and if the only thing they improved is practice that will be disappointing.

Agree wholeheartedly. Very disappointed. And with an online league, looks like we'll have to deal with draft guides again this year. That was one of the biggest benefits of NCAA classes.. no way to cheat the system.
