Face of the Franchise and “Classic Franchise” info coming June 30th

[ripcandlestickpark]

IIRC, they hadn't used the "Connected" Franchise name in a while. Maybe around M17 or M18 they went back to just calling it Franchise?

Yes, I'm glad that we're getting this out the way early, so folk can know sooner rather than later if they're peacing out on Madden 21.

Expand and flesh them out more. Decent last year. - 5th-year option coach mode scenario for first-round draft picks (via title update) Rushed. Doesnt give you a salry number until after you already sign them. - removed dev trait regression (which apparently was a major complaint of the Madden 19 player base? I don't necessarily agree with this but whatever) Absolutely terrible decision - XP gain / player progression tuning (I understand you hate XP player progression, but as someone who actually enjoys it and pays attention to how it works, it's better in M20 than in M19) Was better. Every position was streamlined. Made tuning easy for what it was. Again though makes it so the progression is painfully predictable. - hidden dev traits for rookies Broken. Can be seen right away in edit player menu. - player regression tuning Tuned for the worse. - player contract demands tuning (again, it's far better than M19; still needs more work, IMO) Much better. They get credit here. Still pounding the drum for production based contract demands as opposed to overall. - draft class generator tuning Meh - playable Pro Bowl I know people have been asking for years but the pro bowl is nearly phased out in reality. - added via title update various commissioner controls to curtail rogue users from ruining online leagues This was nice. They still need to add about a dozen more admin controls

Overall really bad. Everything is half baked.

What exactly classic franchise constitutes is the only thing remotely interesting so far about Madden 21 to me.

So far, some of the game play features have me curious to try on my own during beta.

I think Face pf the Franchise is the new franchise mode going forward. Classic Franchise might be the legacy franchise mode. Or maybe they have plans to blow out Franchise for next gen.

Thank you... I was typing a similar post until I saw yours. 5th yr options are a joke. They promised them in July and they didn't come until November. Even then you don't know the salary number and every time the scenario says "Player X barely saw the field last year" ... even if they were your starting QB and won MVP and the Super Bowl..... It's classic EA pretending to implement something but really just caring so little about franchise that they couldn't take an extra 30 minutes and make it work correctly. The same can be said for nearly all of the "features" they added last year.

I think we are all getting too excited by “classic” franchise. It likely just means Fotf is there, or you can play in the more traditional method. I doubt it means they brought anything back.
