The two were talked about together last year and they are similar modes, especially considering that March to October turns into a traditional franchise mode after the first season, should you choose to continue with your current team/franchise.

So yeah, I expect they will discuss both together again this year.

In my opinion, EA Sports and Madden introduced this terrible ideology and other games are now utilizing it. Franchise fans all around are getting screwed. I want to play a sim game, not a card collecting game. I do love Diamond Dynasty but, like, give us sim fans something.

I mean go ahead but in past years Franchise was in the actual description of the stream and still barely got talked about. Can't imagine they'll have anything to say if it's not even mentioned.

There’s no denying that it’s a strong sign that the same trend with franchise mode is about to continue, though. Making significant changes to franchise and then not giving it its own stream or making it known to people who don’t ‘know the drill’ by now, that it will part of a stream with something else, would just be terrible marketing.

MTO is a cool idea, I’m happy for those who enjoy the style of that mode, but MTO hijacking what was once Franchise Mode’s stream while even just Franchise’s inclusion in the stream is now left unsaid, is pretty concerning.

I never suggested there would be significant changes, just I expect it to be talked about during the March to October premiere.

Guess we'll find out March 17th.
