And you could not see scores of any other team's game until the week you are playing in was completed.

I don't know man. The dynamic commentary, no game being the same, and Live arena will be an absolute treat for me.

Sure. At the end of the day, all the improvements will entice me to try out the game. But, then when I'm just drooling to start a season with a team, there's just something missing when you don't have trades and A.I. teams making roster moves. I love THE ONE, but it just isn't where I wanted to invest my time.

I guess it’s just the Sega in me. I personally prefer no movement and the teams to stay as they are on the current season. I 100% want depth. I hope they add to the mode. I guess I am just keeping my expectation low for Franchise so I’m not disappointed.

At this moment if all they add to the mode is the new features I will be happy as long as they perform as advertised.

I don't expect them to invest too much in Franchise anytime soon, they said their going after the younger generation which means more investment in online superstar modes like The One.

I am not very optimistic about Franchise mode, as it hasn't even been mentioned. Not even "Franchise information coming soon.".

I loved last years game. It was such a breath of fresh air. The new things that they are talking about fixing sound great but man the franchise was awful! They could make it tons better with just some really small tweaks too. I hope they give it at least a little love.

One thing I NEED to have in franchise mode is in depth and comprehensive stat tracking like 2K. The illusion of a realistic and dynamic game world is shattered for me if I can't see players and teams history. I've been so accustomed to the quick and easy to access player and team profiles filled with info in 2K that I just can't live without it.

If EA implement an ESPN like site or in game app that lets you look up anything then that will go a long way to getting me on board.

I just hope they go from the week to week back to day to day like any normal sports video game that isn't football.


Seeing my team up 3-0 in the playoffs (or even 2-1 during the regular season) before any other series has played a game is just idiotic . Having to sim to the next week for the standings to update was just awful & completely ruined the mode for me. Didn't get as far as finding out about the non-existent trade AI or even the no injuries when playing
