where are the franchise updates?

[marktg30]

I am sure they will be making some big changes/fixes for Franchise Mode... I just hope they are above and beyond what they did last year.

Personally, I hope they make the names of players in draft classes random.

wats weird is even ncaa hasn't mentioned dynasty and still isn't all the fuss there, and there game releases 1st, im worried and a little skeptical too, not because I don't think they worked on franchise but because I wonder if what they did will be good enough, all that being said... E3

E3 won't show us any more than it did last year.

"The Extra Point"... something I NEVER use.

Dynasty mode is a lot further along than franchise imo. Franchise has more room for improvement than Dynasty does and Dynasty mode is about as good as its gonna get, its the gameplay that NCAA is lacking

Ok so I can't say I agree with your stance, I understand you didn't use the extra point and honestly that it got repetitive BUT that was something EVERYBODY was asking for (weekly wrap-up show) so yes E3 was a HUGE day in terms of things franchise related

Ok, ok, I'll try this supposed kool-aid, jumped right back on the EA bandwagon I have... so what exactly were these huge announcements that they held off until after E3 to let us know last year?

But a bunch of you are right, they probably don't have the resources to expand Maddens team. That's like another $500,000 to hire ten more people. I mean it's not like EA is a fortune 500 company,

ummm, well at least they just entered this list and were never all that close before http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortu...shots/465.html... [sigh] I tried

god damnit this kool-aid makes my mouth taste like *** I'm going to bed

Wasn't really much after E3... more so at E3 showing everything off.

The fixes for Franchise Mode really aren't THAT numerous.

I have a feeling they are just very involved.
