Patch does not work with freezing Franchise in progress!

[Derty PuDge]

so even if i'm still in year one and HAVE NOT had a freezing issue yet, i should still start over? or will i be okay?

I was just under the impression that current franchises would be fine. They said they were fixing franchise freezing in the patch, and they said that all fixes in the patch would apply to current franchises and new ones wouldn't have to be started.

So best case scenario here is that we were lied to about having to restart franchises.

Good job, EA.

I suggest you try it yourself. There are plenty of people that post incorrect things on here. Re-start your franchise and then come back to us with your "Thanks for taking my money EA" comments.

Like countryboy said.....I don't see how you could uncorrupt a current file that was corrupted to begin with.

Re-start and you will be fine.
Also this thread title is very mis-leading.

You do realize people have every right to be upset if a game they rightly payed for is unplayable, right?

Listen they said that with some things in the patch. They said it about the freezing in-game I believe. But I don't remember them saying that about the "franchise killing freeze" at all. Maybe I'm wrong. Before you guys start this crusade against EA I suggest you go back and look for posts that confirm what your saying is true.

Thats the point. It is playable. This unplayable crap is so far from the truth. Re-start your franchise and have fun.
