I stopped playing online cause it's not fun to me. just give me offline franchise and allow me to import my NCAA draft classes. But I do love the dynamic ratings for every team. The possibilities.

no more NCAA Draft Classes sorry

You can do it offline or online either way.

damn....from the web?!??!......so.....i'm at work on a saturday night...and can hop online(meaning from a PC--not the console)...and tinker with my franchise....say...all the off-season stuff?!.......wow...THAT IS COOL

Very interested to see how the online franchise aspect of it works with 32 user controlled teams as all I've really played in the last few installments of madden was online franchise, I'm hoping it is still possible to run one

I'm sure that there must be a way to play even if you don't have an internet connection. I think being connected online offers you more of an experience for sure, but I am sure you can still play without the connection.

How is progression/regression going to work? I know we can upgrade guys ourselves (not a fan), but how is regression going to work? I also hope there is an option for the players to progress on their own based on stats, like it was in Head Coach 09.

Can you have multiple careers in different files opposed to in the same file?

When I saw the startup scene for CC, I didnt see "load a career". I dont want to have to retire to do a another career.
