Re: All applicable player traits in Franchise change to "No"

All players have their traits set to NO in franchise even though they are on in the main menu when you check rosters.

if you try to turn them ON in the edit player function within franchise it doesn’t save and defaults to OFF.

  • @msadler04 @EA_Blueberry There is a bug where any changes made to the "player traits" don't save properly in franchise when editing players. I tried to make a bug report but it won't let me post a new bug on this forum.

    When playing franchise editing the player's "player traits" does not work as it does not save properly. Every time you try to edit the fight for extra yards or possession catch traits it will undo whatever changes you made despite saving the changes. It is broken please fix it.

    Edit any player's "player traits" like the possession, aggressive, and RAC catch, penalty traits, or fight for extra yards trait. Save it then go back to edit the player's attributes and you will see it does not save properly. I don't know exactly which traits are bugged because some but others are broken and do not save like the ones mentioned previously.

    Whatever changes to "player traits" you make are not saved and are undone.

    I expect to click the sliders and for it to save the changes properly.

    After looking into this I believe it to be a cosmetic bug. Even though the traits are set to NO on the player screen within franchise they have the traits activated on the player card. (and are set to YES in the main menu roster section). You can toggle traits on and off in the edit player screen within franchise and the traits will appear / disappear on the player card, however in the edit player screen it always says NO.

    i think they are ON (yes) but the edit screen menu is broken and shows No no matter when setting you have if that makes sense. 

  • No it isn’t because my defensive players aren’t acting aggressive when trying to catch interceptions

  • This bug makes me not want to play. Feels too game altering not being able to rush the QB effectively when that's what my defense is built around. Hopefully we get an update on resolution or fix soon so I can start playing the game again.

  • @msadler04 I don't believe that to be the case because DEs in particular will not use designated pass rush moves. Other position groups also have this issue.
  • 100% not working. It's not cosmetic.  They do not work. I've played madden for years since it came out. The power moves do NOT work.  Do the practice drills.  I know what they are supposed to do. I cannot club players out of the way line I always have.  This needs to be fixed and I cannot believe it's been line this for weeks! Ridiculous.  Fix this issue at once. This is insane.  People pay a ton of money and this is a very simple bug you are ignoring. 

  • It's Monday 9/16 and no response. Had anyone from EA even responded to this? It's there another way to get on touch and report this issue where someone will hear it? This issue is very frustrating and like others it's making me not enjoy the game.  This is a very easy issue to fix from a programming side.  Please respond.  Unacceptable.

    I haven't seen any response. I load into franchise to check every couple days just incase.

    @EA_Blueberry any updates on this? I get Franchise is the red headed step child but a whole portion of the game is pretty broken. 

  • 9/25 and not a single peep. I don't think anyone at EA is even looking at this.  Going to try calling or something.

    Marking as solved only for visibility. We are currently looking into this issue. 


    Hi everyone, 

    We appreciate the info you've shared with us in these reports. 

    I wanted to drop in here and let you know that we are looking into the issues with player traits in Franchise. At the moment I don't have a time frame for when this may be fixed, but we'll let you know when we've got any updates. 

    Thanks for being patient with us while we're looking into this. 

  • They noted they are aware of it above at least. But it's still messed up as of today

    Franchise should play like quick play games, they feel totally different right now. Quick play is so much better, but I want to start a franchise already!!!

  • From a programming point of view is very easy.  They posted this as a complete thing a week ago saying they were looking into it.  I'm not convinced they are doing anything.  This isn't a hard thing to fix.

    @EA_Kent An official EA update on this issue would be greatly appreciated! Like, do we have a timeline yet on when to expect a fix?

    Have just stopped playing completely because of this issue. Would like to get back to my franchise at some point.

  • @BornOfIron agreed. How about a timeline? It's s big issue and I'm not playing either. I'm considering dumping madden over this going forward. The non action or response is alarming for this big of an issue on a huge game.

    I checked and it looks fixed after today's update, but I'm still seeing issues with club and swim moves. I can't even produce a club move in franchise and swim moves are acting real suspect. For example I'll do a swim move and it goes the in the opposite direction a lot of times. It just feels way way way different then when the game was first released. I might have to make a video and post it here.
