Madden NFL 10 Online Franchise Discussion

Re: Madden NFL 10 Online Franchise Confirmed

To be honest I think the most important question should be, Can you play franchise with LESS than 32 teams.

The chances a 8, 10, 12 or 16 team league/franchise of surviving is MUCH MUCH higher then a 32 team franchise.

So CAN ANYONE answer this question? This would be an absolute game winner for me if this is possible

I can't answer it for sure, but it would only make sense that they allow you to play with fewer than 31 other players and then have the CPU control the other teams. This is how the Online Dynasty worked in NCAA, and I'd imagine Madden will be the same.

Can you relocate your team and make stadiums etc ect, will they have the extra point show in online franchise??

I doubt you will be able th relocate your team for online team. Offline franchise you can. Far as the show been online franchise is yet to be announced. It's only for offline right now.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Online Franchise Confirmed

I guess I did not make myself clear...

I meant a league with only that amount of teams, not cpu controlled or user controlled.

If I wanted to setup a 16 team league and get a 16 team schedule for 16 user players only. Not 16 of 32

Re: Madden NFL 10 Online Franchise Confirmed

I have a question, for anyone who has played OD in NCAA. If there is only 3 human controlled teams in your dynasty and the rest are controlled by the cpu can you assign one of your friends to play as your opponent so you never have to play against the cpu? sort of like online franchise with live opponent, it would be nice if you could do this. Even without this ability online franchise in madden is awesome.

Thanks in advance.

Since September of 2002, the RFCUnited club system has provided an environment in which our members can be assured of a fun, glitch free straight game. The club was founded as an alternative to the 'Public Room" games in which either glitches in the game were exploited or your opponent simply quit if losing. Our club was founded on this rule first and foremost - NO QUITTING GAMES. Other rules were put in place to counter any glitches in the AI that gave someone an unfair advantage.

As Madden has evolved so has the RFCU. Our members range from the highly skilled Madden player to the recreational player that plays who could care less about wins and losses.The two common threads that bind us all are we play straight simulation style football and we value good sportsmanship above all else. If this sounds like the type of environment you'd like to be a part of just follow the instructions below and you can begin to process of joining the best online Madden club out here. And remember, EA Sports didn't create "fair play mode", the RFCU did!!!!

If you would like to be considered for membership in the RFCU, please send an e-mail to: [email protected] with the following information:

• Your First Name

Re: Ok, what do we want to know abotu On-Line Franchise?

If someone quits or needs to be booted can the the commish just replace em with another human player or cpu player to ensure the franchise runs smoothly?

This is important as well. Very good question.

Also, what is the capability of porting over a draft class from NCAA? Will it work? How would we do it? are the stats realistic?

What happens during disconnects? Can the commish control who wins/loses? Is a replay game possible? Will the game track the stats until the disconnect?

How is progression? Is it realistic? Is it based solely on performance in the game (could promote running up the score)?

How is the salary cap handled? Is it worth it to keep in the franchise and let some teams trade at their peril?

www.rfcunited.com we are older,most of us, and legit. Check us out we run 32 team leagues smooth. It's basically a small close community for madden as well as other games. I wouldn't be playing madden online if it was not for the U. We have a training camp so check us out!

As a 32 year old high school basketball coach, that sounds like my kind of thing.

Proof of CPU Control of non-user teams:





See that little "CPU" tag next to the team names and the "vs. CPU" on the team select screen?

I Added the rest of the pics in JPEG format if anybody else wants them, rather than in EA's flash only viewer. Franchise pics in jpeg

Re: Ok, what do we want to know abotu On-Line Franchise?

What are the odds I can find 31 people who will play fair and realistic?

Like the real NFL owners play fair..lol

Re: Ok, what do we want to know abotu On-Line Franchise?

-Do the leagues HAVE to be full? CPU controlled teams?

Just to answer this one. I posted this in the other O.F. thread, but may as well copy it in because some peeps have the same question:

Re: Ok, what do we want to know abotu On-Line Franchise?

Six months ago I was a nobody. I got picked on at work and all my work buddies said I was a loser. My own wife bragged about how she cheated on me all the time. My life was going nowhere quick. Then I joined RFCUNITED.com and everything changed. My "lil guy" started working again and all my STD's went away. My wife even started talking to me again.
