Doesn't make a different CPU still screws up your depth charts your LS that are mostly TE for some unknown dumb reason in CFM you can't put them at LS position so you gotta make them a C or G. the CPU cuts those players anyway because it thinking having a 4 string TE is stupid. and 90% of those players then vanish from the franchise.

and many lower rated players vanish from the game because they are lower rated players and the game keeps veterans that probably will never see a NFL game again, unless you wanna spend hours making their ratings to 0 so they disssapear as well, it's what happens but more work once again

Not trying to be a smart *** at all here friend but the answer is simple

They ended. Those days are over.

I just wish they would listen to us instead of force feed us game modes I want nothing to do with.

They are big on "fixing" what they have, and yet franchise is still garbage.

With the info in the franchise blog today, does anyone know if 32 team control is possible in the play now live simple season mode?

Doubt it at all,, it's funny how other sports games have season mode in for those that just wanna play a season straight away. MLB the show has it.

Yet we have all these other useless modes in madden but not a simple season mode.

NCAA 14 had a fantastic "quick" season mode and i played the hell out of that and then we all know what happened to that series. This new play now season intrigues me and im interested in how easy it will be to control the braindead cpu roster moves. hope they will be diabled all together.

I mean we could do out own season and use the old pen and paper, just means we would have no ticker on the tv or season stats on the screen for the game

I used to do that back in Madden 93, when they just had numbers. I would write down stats and all for everything and use exhibition mode

that is how sad this is I am talking about madden 93 here wasn't till 94 we has a season mode.

I hear ya, used to do the same thing on the Genesis, used big spreadsheets. I'd even cut out helmet pics and paste them into the proper divisions, even do newspaper type blurbs about what happened in each of the games.
