Re: So is there no fix or planned fix for the FA list bug?

So far, I'm not entirely sure. From what I've seen, no one higher up at EA (developers) have commented on this or said anything. So far from the few people I saw that got an actual, non-generic response from tech support, it seems like EA acknowledges this but considers it a "rare occurrence" and doesn't believe it effects a majority of franchise users.

I know one article (preview of Madden I think) said there was some sort of patch in the works for turnover issue, though I have no idea about that. 1UP had an article about how there was a patch in the works for the moonwalk, that seems legit enough. I think there will *a patch* for at least the moonwalk in the works. Seems like a lot of people have complained about the franchise problem, however. On the practical, logical side of things, I think this issue is effecting enough players that a patch is warranted. On the EA ethics side of things, their track record of fixing things is pretty dismal. Maybe someone with some inside information can lend a hand here...

Free Agent Pool (360) is the best read...

Basically, after 2 or 3 seasons, the FA pool runs dry in some positions and there simply aren't any players available in those positions. Can't meet roster requirements, can't advance a week...and you're pretty much screwed.

There will be a patch for it. It's called Madden 2009.
