Re: Do you want the ability to edit player attributes in the middle of your Franchise

I voted for the middle one. I do think that the progression should be sufficient, but I would like to have some say in the direction in which my players are developing. The last few maddens' camp have been awful and I hate that you can only increase the level of a players' weapon...... power (i guess?) Really what I would like is for me to have a philosophy or plan for each player and have the player progression be based on how well they fit into that scheme I have for them. So for instance lets say I wanted Rivers to become more of scrambling QB, any progression that he gains from the season will be directed towards his scrambling ability a lot more than his other attributes. If he still has an outstanding season passing, I would like those attributes to go up a little as well. But If he does really well in general esp when passing on the run, or getting out of the pocket and running, I want those stats to go up a higher/quicker rate.... if that makes sense.

I picked yes because I don't see why we shouldn't be able to? I'd say it would help the people who don't like the progression which would fix a lot of the worries about progression. They just leave in this feature just in case.

One day with the game and you're absolutely certain progression ISN'T broken? I'll wait for a final build before making such declarations.

Answering the topic: Yes, I would like the ability to edit everything. Sometimes a surprise player breaks through and I'd like the ability to boost his ratings ... or vice-versa if someone suddenly becomes a bum.

Re: Do you want the ability to edit player attributes in the middle of your Franchise

I will probably have two different franchises running simultaneously. One with the NCAA imported draft classes and one with the Madden generated drafts.

Every year in the past there has always been serious flaws with both the imported and the generated classes. Editing attributes inside of the franchise would allow the user to fix these mistakes. So that the franchise doesn't basically become unbalanced after the first year.

Now if the development teams can guarantee that both drafts methods will be on point, then I don't really have a problem, but since there is no way that they can make that guarantee, then they should allow us to modify the incoming players to keep the proper balance in the league.

Re: Do you want the ability to edit player attributes in the middle of your Franchise

Where's the "I only want to edit incoming rookies" option? Editing the attributes of existing players inside of franchise mode sort of defeats the purpose of the player progression system, and ergo the entire mode, IMO.

I would like the ability to.

If someone doesn't want to use it.....they don't have to.
