franchise ideas for 360
 

since the sim engine is completely screwd up and the computer gets about 50% of the stats they are supposed to get what are all you guys doing about franchise mode?

I'm thinking of maybe just playing really short games and just trying to get my stats the same as the computers sim stats.

For me this game doesn't have much replay value right now. It gets boring playing random exhibition games and Xbox live is really laggy for me so online games are kind of frustrating. The only fun thing to do right now with this games seems to be playing against friends. I like the gameplay but I'm already starting to get bored and running out of ideas of ways to keep this game fun.

How long are your quarter lengths right now?

In three games and looking over other games, teams and player stats have been pretty realistic.

The main problem i've seen with the sim engine is the amount of carries the starting RB receives. Their ypc are fine, but backs like Tomlinson and Alexander are only getting 10-15 carries a game.

Do you mean that they only get 10-15 carries a game when you play the CPU in franchise, or does that seem to be their average when you look at their simulated stats against other teams?

CPU starting RB's are getting 10-15 carries in simulated games.

I do think this is something EA can patch though.

can't you just change the coaching tendencies? haven't tried, but his might be an option.

Re: franchise ideas for 360
 

no because its the total number of plays that is low, not just the running percent

Re: franchise ideas for 360
 

I just looked at some games and the cpu seems to be running about 55-65 plays.
