The bold was the point I was trying to make. What I am getting at is there are numerous features that are applicable to both offline and online franchise.
Madden 18 only tailored their franchise additions to online only. This left a lot of offline fans in the dust.
What I am advocating for our features that benefit both. Features such as:
Assistant coaches
Historical stat tracking
Trade finder/ calculator
Custom draft classes
Create a team
Create uniforms
Better CPU AI
Hall of fame/ legacy tracker
In game updates across the league
More commissioner tools
Coaching and scouts that matter
Weekly wrap up shows
An organized news feed
These are just some ideas. I'd love to see people add more to this list.
