Tackling drills, watching film etc aren't individual things though. I was hoping for an actual full team prep where the drills/activities you pick are geared towards that week's matchup. This sounds like just a less tedious version of the weekly practice which is a shame because they had an opportunity to add some much needed depth to the mode.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Connected Franchise Deep Dive
The weekly prep kind of sounds similar to NFL 2K5's prep each week. (Sorry if the comparison is totally wrong)Comment

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Connected Franchise Deep Dive
While that would have been an awesome feature they still added depth with the individual training. Will be very good if you use a team like the Patriots for example, you can start Tom Brady for the next few years while still developing Jimmy Garoppollo for the future.Tackling drills, watching film etc aren't individual things though.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Connected Franchise Deep Dive
It's a good compromise IMO. Guys like myself who really want to dig into development can and those who just want to fly through weeks can do that.
I'd much rather have something like this than hear a bunch of guys complain that development is too tedious etc etcSOS Madden League (PS4) | League Archives

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Connected Franchise Deep Dive
I wasn't even expecting Custom Draft Classes, honestly. I just want to edit the random draft picks so I can get just like Jamies Winston, TJ Yeldon, etc into future seasons of M15.
Random draft classes are definitely a welcomed addition, especially for online leagues, but it would be nice to (at the very least) have the ability to rename drafted players.My 2K17 Boston Celtics MyLeague

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Connected Franchise Deep Dive
I completely expect, and am prepared for Madden to mess up the random draft class feature some how, some way. I can easily see some 60 speed WR with the name Johnson Nebraska or something. But I am kind of intrigued.Green Bay PackersSeattle MarinersNew York Rangers

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Connected Franchise Deep Dive
You will be able to simulate some of or all of your Game Prep hours every week. All up to you, and the CPU will use logic based on your team/roster on what to prep if you don't want to. If you need help deciding what to train, there is also the "Recommended Activities" tab to help you out.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Connected Franchise Deep Dive
Thanks. I guess the next question is...is the coach mode option gone? Last year, you just had to call the plays, except for kicks, snap the ball, and the CPU will do the rest. Is that gone now?You will be able to simulate some of or all of your Game Prep hours every week.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Connected Franchise Deep Dive
Can't you just create/rename the guys? I doubt they changed anything as far as rosters across the board, that allows editing appearance to existing players without creating new. Since these new classes are random, maybe I am wrong.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Connected Franchise Deep Dive
I was excited that those first few screenshots showed coordinators/position coaches but disappointed there was never anything about hiring/firing them, and that firing in-season only really addressed the usual Coach/Scout/Training positions. A ton of other really good stuff there though.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Connected Franchise Deep Dive
I bet you're right, especially given that none of those coaches are actual coaches for the Browns.
I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.
