So we need to invest time and energy to provide video proof? Again is this not there full time job? I'm rather lost with all of this and what to even think.

It's the day and age of video proof and social media.

An analogy from the old High Heat baseball days, best sim baseball game for that time period, but the buggiest baseball game for that time period.

Let's say Madden sell 5 million copies, that's 10 million eyes glued to the screen vs the hundreds sets of eyes that work in QA. I'm speculating at the numbers, obviously.

Kolbe said during the access time there is more people playing and testing during that period than they are able to test the whole year.

That should not be hard to get. But then again they may only tweak the UI lol.

Give me 2 or more games I already have 4 players with 99 and I only played 3 games.

I'll get in on it as well. I've got all my numbers saved from the Play Now games I've played for slider purposes so perhaps some data will help as well. I'll start one up tomorrow and see what I can get.

Confidence should just be taken out completely next year and disabled this year with a patch. Just seems like they arent able to balance it. If they just tweaked it to only give small boosts and not turn middle road players into All Pros it would help.

Agree man. I would be so happy if they can just disable it. But I don't think they will do that.

While I agree you should be able to toggle it on/off, I don't think the boosts it gives are all that significant. All of my players have 99 confidence but none of them have gone up more than 2 or 3 in overall. Still want to turn it off though.

It plays more than if it were one or too. I play with Rodgers who is 99 and I still overthrows wr on play now every now and then. On cfm any rating above 90 and you play like j. Montana

After the update the game has been choppy for me. Disappointed. XBOX One version.

I think that's the best implementation. IRL practice squad guys can be signed by any team at any time to the 53. Make them free agents in the game as that's essentially what they are. I believe that will keep the cpu from making dumb roster cuts.

Does that make sense?

I'd rather see a practice squad that allows for the development of practice squad players. But I imagine you would like to see that too if you are into Frnachise, as would almost every Franchise OSer.

This is what I can't stand about CFM. There's no transparency whatsoever within it and it's issues. Gameplay seems very honest and upfront with the "we know this is wrong" type stuff but it seems like with CFM everything always "works" or is fine which is part of what is so unbelievably frustrating about the things they implement and how it gets implemented.

Just to clarify..Clint is gameplay only not CFM..

No I understand..but don't forget..gameplay is in FL and CFM is in TX..which in itself is silly I would assume..when making a game u would think it would be better to have everyone together no? Maybe this is one of the issues that causes this game to be a mess in one mode and good in another mode

Before anyone takes Clint's "perceived answer" out of context, I understand what he is saying.

Like Charter stated earlier in the thread, we need video evidence to present to them like Armour & Sword did this morning. They are looking into it.

They just need to take the perceived issues and test them out on their end before confirming they are issues.

His use of the word "perceived" should be viewed as a slight. That is a very specific word choice with a very specific connotation. He could have responded in an innumerable amount of other ways that would not have been perceived in a negative fashion. He couldn't help but take that little shot.

I definitely would. I was talking within the context of the current games roster limitations.

I´m embarrassed to say but i have play around 50 or more play now games by now and i´m still in love of the gameplay. Too bad CFM doesn´t play anything remotely close to that.

The confidence thing is good but they need to give that option for Offline CFM as well and also it should affect all teams, not only users.

alls we need is a season mode.

play with day 1 rosters, a one off season.

you could add depth to this with a training squad of players as well as free agency to call upon when injuries happen.

players play with their "play now" ratings, not progression/ recession in ratings.

maybe a subtle ratings boost for the home team in energy, stamina maybe acc/ burst ... that mode would do me. just play seasons to try and win a SB.


sometimes less, is more!

This is so frustrating and a epidemic in the EA sports business model. It seems that every year marketing tells the Devs we need two new features for the back of the box. So the Devs have to add things like drive goals and other garbage we Sim players don't want.

Meanwhile, there is still basic things missing like a retirement tracker or a history page with past MVPs and Superbowl winners. What type of "career" mode has such little immersion or history as the current Madden? This same dilemma is present in Fifa and I am sure other EA games. Give us sim!! I want everything you can do in the real league and the ability to go back in history and look at the path I have spent hours creating. Not fake back of the box features.

If you replaced one of those devs with practically any mod on here who has the pulse of the sim community we would have our proper franchise mode within a year. But these devs are so out of touch with the sim community it's baffling.
