I'm also curious if they've applied the option for the Rams to not relocated to that boring generic stadium. the tuner we got about a month ago doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere in this, which has me concerned. I was mostly waiting for those changes.

Yes. All of the fixes that were previously applied to Cloud CFMs will apply to Offline CFM now too with this update.

For the Rams stadium issue in particular, it will only apply to new Franchise saves. There was no way to retroactively remove the Rams from their stadium if they were already in the process of moving.

Saving progress in a User vs CPU cloud Franchise game is a god send. Adjustments to how DBs defend streaks is also a welcome change. Lots of other useful fixes in here as well.

Looking forward to my league starting its second season tomorrow even more now.

Ok, there's the first throwaway, but right after that Taylor gets in on the fun.

That seemed like the right time for a throwaway to happen, unlike many of the pre-patch ones. And there's no way that one gets called for grounding IMO, with the receiver right there on the sideline.

Thanks for the answer. I have a related question: did EA fix the issue in which relocated team stadiums show Madden logo on their jumbotron all the time instead of the team's logo? That's frustratingly unrealistic.

did they fix how there might be non RBs in the RBs spot on run plays?

In franchise, did they change Miami's stadium name from "New Dolphins Stadium" to "Hard Rock Stadium"... since... you know, the stadium isn't new, just renovated. I get it, the name came after release, but should be something they can add, right?


Nice looking patch list. I've got to find the time to get back to Madden, but FH3 is consuming all my time.

So they fixed formation subs not saving for offline cfm?

These fixes sound great, and sounds like the CPU has better scramble logic? hope thats true for most. If i can pull myself away from Destiny i'm totally going to fire this up.

I am happy for all you ON-LINERS and those that got there issues addressed but the 4 biggest issues for OFFLINE franchise IMO were not even touched. The wind issue and punting, Still the same, this is totally ridiculous. Tackles for loss, not addressed, had a total of 23 in one game since patch. POTM freeze is still there, when trying to return too saved game, still get blue screen and error code. (This could be a personal issue with my system, but others are also having the same problem. ) And playbooks with too many verticals not addressed. I know there is a work around for this by using generic game plans. It's wonderful that EA fixed many little problems but these issues are HUGE and have been reported and talked about since the game came out and some from years of Madden.

Well maybe now that they have did this UPDATE and fixed a lot of issues, I am hoping they will now finally address these in the next patch or update. OFFLINE FRANCHISE MATTERS..

Don't see anything listed for CPU inability to punt into the wind being fixed, or toning down the grossly exaggerated wind effects?

Edit: perhaps this falls under "fixed a variety of rare special teams issues".

I will try to check this tonight or over the next day or so. I stopped my franchise in 4th week of Pre-season to hope to see if a patch/tuner improves the punting by the CPU when playing outdoors. Will try a few games and report back along with anyone else who has input on this one.

How many games have you gotten to play post patch?

A bit underwhelming. I'd have liked to see them add something significant, like the ability to actually view/play a CPU game in CFM. As it stands, I play my game in a bubble outside of which I can't see anything else that happens. Play the Moment would be perfect for CPU games, where you don't just see but play the most significant bits of every game each week.
