Something like "Fifa 09 Adidas Live Season" would be cool.

Ian, will rosters be extended for Madden 2010?

It helps Madbacker to make the rosters better, and keep players that are in IR on there respective teams.

same here. As Jistic stated, imo the more options the better, but I don't even use pre-existing injuries. I want my franchise to be my own.

The issue that I would see is that I can't get the satisfaction of injuring a key player. (last year I knocked off Rivers in the final game of the regular season thus causing the Bolts to lose in the wilcard round of the playoffs)

Re: With these big injuries...what do you do in Franchise?

When I was younger, this was my type of thing to do.

I haven't really played Franchise Mode recently though. When I get back into the game mode however, this wouldn't be something I would plan to do. I like to follow my own world in franchise mode.

I wouldn't have a problem running a franchise/season mode like that. Kinda like someone else said about the Addidas Live Season for Fifa, which I plan to play with. But it'd have to have the type of depth that ALS and NBA Lives DNA have. Just real-life injuries and trades would be kinda shallow compared to the new cutting edge stuff. Brian

I'd much rather see injuries actually occur in the games. Well signifant ones. Everybody I see get injured comes right back.

Re: With these big injuries...what do you do in Franchise?

I would probably use this.

seems to be very interesting.

You would get the roster files from week to week I would assume and each week would have an updated roster for each week.

I know I keep asking, but I still want to know.

Do you guys still use the water fall method or a lean agile method?

As a developer I am very curious. Though the way you ask questions tends to make me think you're using agile. Water fall allows almost no room for changes. If you are agile, I like how you are making the people who play your game the product owner
