    Re: Owner Mode in Madden 25 Connected Franchise?

    Owner mode would be nice to have back since Madden2007 ps2 days. But I hope that means I can still control the HC stuff and players in the game as well. Owner mode is only so fun and then it becomes boring fast. But adding this would be very big indeed. I've missed it for many years now. But please for the love of God please let them fix the cap glitch bug that is in the offline off line CCM. That needs to be address as well. I would love to once again to be able rebuild staduim or move my team to a state and fix ticket and food prices and stuff like that. Also to play as Panthers owner JR. Nice to play as a old man.

      Sounds promising but I hope they focus on the real important aspects of Owner Mode or any career mode and that is the creation of a backroom staff, the development of a roster (so fixing progression) and realistic contract negotiations.

      The loss of OCs, DCs, QB Coaches and all staff members (as well as some official coaches, I mean, really?) really impacted the longevity of CCM for me. Likewise, seeing coaches get fired for losing in the NFC Championship, or Coaches leaving teams after winning Superbowls to coach another team etc. was really frustrating to see. A real coaching carousel with backroom staffs would be HUGE.

      I liked the XP approach to progression but felt that it placed too much of an emphasis on drafting players and playing them immediately as well as them already coming out with certain (expensive) skills highly rated. I'd like to see your coaching staff really having an effect on players' ability to earn XP and progress, and with a real fleshed out traits system to differentiate players within gameplay as well as their ability to fit within your scheme.

      Realistic contract negotiations (both with staff and players) would be crucial, including things like making a contract top or back loaded, certain incentives, re-structuring of contracts and just better CPU AI to know who to give that long term deal (Why re-sign 34 year old Running Backs and let Matt Ryan go? EVERY YEAR) that is based on production as well as their importance. I'm sick of seeing 26 year Old QBs in their prime being let go and replaced with 3 QBs in the resulting draft.

      Anyway, I'm going off on a tangent.

      Basically, I'm cautiously optimistic for what the mode can bring, but it needs certain things in order for it to work in my eyes, or have any merit.

      Maybe owners could just be playing a role as you are a coach though? Part of the negotiations for your new contract or determines how they manage the team? Some owners are trigger happy with firing coaches, others are more stable, some may want marketable players (Tebow for Jax for example) while others are dedicated to winning? Would make each job different and every coach face different issues.
      Could be implemented like the board in Football Manager....

            I wonder if this means we will have three options for Connected Franchise. Be a player (play as an individual), be a coach (similar to head coach, call plays etc.) or be an owner (control the whole team). Either way I'm excited to find out more about it.

              May 20th looks to be the day we find out about this.
              EA Sports has announced the schedule that they will use to reveal the new features in Madden 25.  Last year there were 1-2 hour webcasts, but sports gaming news site VG Strategy has obtained confirmation via twitter that we will not be seeing those this year.  Nonetheless, we have the release dates for when you […]

                Dear football Gods (EA monopoly),

                Houston Oilers...give 'em back...that is all.
                I'm still playing NCAA 14 and Madden 25...and you know, it's alright.

                  This ish right here. Next-gen, is my only hope for football gaming this year.

                  "There is a noticable gap between 5/20 and 6/24 which we attribute to E3 taking place in early June. Right now most people in the media are speculating that is by design so EA Sports can announce Madden 25 on the next-gen consoles like the PlayStation 4 and XBOX 720."

                    That would be awesome. Gives me incentive to buy this year, if true.

                      Have to say, I'm definitely intrigued by the Gamestop 49ers Franchise Pack. Really hoping that this means Owner mode is back and would love to be able to create an owner(the ability to make yourself) and then "buy" a team. It also be cool to be able to take a previous owner(like Debarto) and take over a team and have the storylines reflect his past, "After years of being away from the game, Eddie Debarto has decided to return to the league as he buys the Buffalo Bills, Tennessee Titans, etc".

                        The Awkward thing about Next-Gen Release is that it would not be until the mid to end of the NFL season long after Madden current Gen is out

                        It will make alot of people buy Madden 25 twice? Kinda sucks big time.

                        Would be nice to see EA give code for Next-Gen but it would never do that maybe pre-order code for it then?

                          I'm excited about Eddie, but don't forget Gamestop said you could coach B.Sanders with J.Madden and that wasn't true.

                            I really hope this marks the return of owners mode. Really excited to see how the next gen maddens turn out though, especially given the announcement of the ps4 share button and "madden share"

                              Anything gives you more control and more options when playing as your franchise, I'm up for. The one thing that used to annoy me a little is say, playing as someone like the Raiders. You take over them, re-build, make them a true contender. But your still stuck in the same stadium, you can't upgrade the look of your stadium for your new look team.

                              Hell, imagine if they went as far as being able to play as an OC or DC like an NCAA? Work your way up, become a coach. As with every Madden every year, one can only dream...

You have control who is the coach, who you're players are and everything. The more control the better, they should have learned that by now.
