The patch didnt change anything, waited like 2 months to get a small patch...

If I control all 32 teams in CFM do I have to draft and sign free agents for all of those teams? I want to mainly focus on controlling the Steelers.

finally played the game after the patch in play now as the saints vs the broncos,
was in the 4th with less the one minute left and going for the winning field goal on 4th down and the game just ended on me so that's a major bug....

lack of penalties compared to before....could be a fluke.....

and could be a fluke but manning had 450 yrds and broncos only rushed for like 16 yrds......

again the last 2 could be fluke, but the automaticly ending of game that's an issue due to patch though its only happened once so far

Draft classes seem to have been fixed, but may have been overly tuned.
After scouting, I didn't find anyone who was higher than a "C" overall rating. With that being said, intangibles (such as speed, strength, etc.) are fixed. For example, while I could not find any O-linemen with blocking better than a "C", pretty much all of them had a strength rating of an "A" or "B".

Johnny Manziel came in to the Cardinals system as a 72 (was the 1st overall pick).
Marcus Mariota came in as a 68.
Other notable QBs from AJ McCarron to Teddy Bridgewater came in between 66 and 74.

I'll definitely be looking to tweaking some ratings and seeing what happens when I can!

did you restart your franchise or did you discover this from your existing franchise? I am just curious cause I am about to draft my first draft in my existing online franchise and I am hoping the patch fixes affect existing online franchises. Most importantly corrects the facemask issue.

This was on a newly made online franchise. I believe the patch will apply to existing franchises, though I'm not 100% sure. As far as I've seen, the facemask issue is fixed!

Re: Madden NFL 25 Title Update #2 Available Now, Post Your Impressions

Thanks. Yes I have spoken to a few different people on different sites and it seems to be the consensus that the patch should work on existing online franchises. Especially online because they are located on the server. So fingers crossed!

Does the draft fix work for generated classes? I drafted a corner with 68 speed. Sure he was a 7th rounder, but he's still a division 1 corner.

Re: Madden NFL 25 Title Update #2 Available Now, Post Your Impressions

had to restart my 32 team CFM twice...once because it never loaded all the players in the NFL and the second time because the free agents were messed up and a lot of them couldn't be hired due to the fact that it showed up as they not wanting anything for a salary, it was showing up as $0 and says invalid amount when you try to get them....both of these problems are post patch and never happened before

Yep, that is a heaping spoonful of EA baloney.

All the speed stuff (along with bench reps, cone drill, and all the other basic combine info) should be posted for all eligible draftees from the get go.

The reason EA chooses to make it something you have to spend scouting points on is due to the fact that they realize they have not made a game that accounts for true football strategy and speed still makes or breaks your team when it's all said and done. Essentially, it's a cop out.

What NFL team has ever drafted someone that turned out to be a bust because he wasn't as fast as they thought he was? C'mon man....

also need to fix freeze when entering depth chart in a game, really really annoying

This happens when you have someone on IR that is not injured anymore. You should only IR someone if they have a season ending injury.
