Re: FIX: Setting Up A 32 Team OFFLINE CFM Instructions

So does the cpu mess with depth charts week to week or just during the offseason?

Re: FIX: Setting Up A 32 Team OFFLINE CFM Instructions

I've tried everything and the CPU is still making trades in the pre-season and cutting players when my rosters at start of week 1 are already at 53. I'm getting frustrated please help

Two quick questions.

1. Is it worth setting realistic auto-sub numbers for each team if you only play one? I know that auto-sub does not work correctly but do those number reflect in the sim engine?

2.Do you let each team auto the practice each week or do you turn it off completely for all coaches?


As always, many thanks.

How do we disable drive goals in 32-team offline cfm ?
seems easier to do one team.

...okay hang on. Maybe I missed something in the last month, but the whole point of 32 team control was to ensure drive goals didn't mess up franchises...the post says you can turn on autopilot, but I thought autopilot caused drive goals to return?

EDIT: Also, do any of you notice that teams let a lot more players walk when you have 32 team control? Simmed a season controlling just 1 team and in FA there were 6 players in FA that were 90+ ovr (Exluding FBs, Ps, and Ks). Simmed with 32 team control and all roster/personnel stuff set to "on" and there were 16 90+ players (again excluding the same pos.). Did the same with all teams but 1 on autopilot and got 16 as well.

And to clarify, I used a 4-3 coach and put every single position to "balanced" in scheme. So while there may be some variance I don't think it would effect it that much

Haven't been following things quite as closely as I was at one point but I believe the general consensus is that Patch 2 toned down the impact of drive goals enough to make it a viable option to use autopilot if you preferred. Some others are putting everyone on autopilot except their opponent since that's all you need to disable drive goals. In other words, they don't work in a game with two active teams...even if one isn't really being controlled in-game.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong though on any of these. I've been working to set up some roster tracking tools and haven't really started my CFM yet.

How do you fire other coaches?

Ex. I own the Eagles, but want to fire Wisenhunt.

if you are using 32 team control simply switch to that team and play as them.

If not, press down on R3 and create a new owner for that team. Then you can retire your dolphins owner

switch to the Titans by pressing R3 and scrolling to the Titans

That's assuming you have 32 team control. If you don't you have to create the owner for the Titans to fire the coach.

I may be wrong, but I think you can do this midseason. Once again, you must be an owner to do so

OR, you could just create a coach for the Titans and it would replace Whisenhunt

Use R3 to switch to the owner you want to replace. Retire that owner. Then use R3 to create a new character. I did hear someone say that retiring an owner may reset the funds for that team to 0 so be aware of that if you do not plan on playing as that owner, or be prepared to add some funds similar to what the old owner had.

Re: FIX: Setting Up A 32 Team OFFLINE CFM Instructions

For the life of me I can't figure out how to do this with the Xbox One.

Can someone help? I'm at the main screen in week 1 of my Tampa franchise. I set everything like the OP said. I don't see any option anywhere to switch teams/users? I see Lovie Smith in the upper right hand. If I press my right stick in, all it does is give me EA trax, Settings, Social Feed and Notifications.
