Echoing this.

This is great stuff and looking to make an already-great game even better.

There's always that possibility, but what works in our favor is that the problems seem like they can be solved with the adjustment of a few variables, parameters.

Only Head Coach 09 and maybe Madden 10(I don't know, I didn't play it) because of their hand created player classes, hasn't had an issue with generated players.

Developers do not seem to apply rigorous enough testing methodologies to this aspect of their game to prevent this issue from occurring every year.

Others have mentioned it, but this is definitely something specific that should be added to the various community days that occur. A Dynasty/Franchise sim guru needs to be invited every year.

Forgive me ignorance on tuner sets. I get that they update via connection to the internet, but does that mean that you have to be connected to the internet every time you play an offline game in order to have the tuners take effect, or do they download onto the hard drive of your console where they can be saved?

pretty sure it saves to hard drive and is usable offline.

So glad they're fixing the progression. And with that, I hope it means 5 stars won't come in with 40 AWR ratings or kickers with 40 KPW, bc progression can only fix that so much.

FINALLY something great to hear. The tuning packages is just what this game needs to go from already awesome to off the charts amazing.

Can't wait to see how this will work out.

i hoping you were going to say awesomercause that's what i would have said. there is a good chance the servers may crash here again because of the patch it will be like a re release.
