youMadden 17 on PS4 ... I've played franchise for 9 games, then today when I try to go start up franchise mode, game requires that I join Playstation Plus. I don't intend to join PSP. How do I play franchise mode?
BharatIt seems the game is asking you to get PSN plus.

BharatPlease open the console in offline mode and then try to play offline game modes
BharatYou can un-plug all the Internet cables from your console and then try to open offline modes
youYou’re saying that I should disconnect console from wireless internet access and then restart Madden 17?

youWhy was I allowed to play 9 games in franchise mode, and then prompted to join Playstation Plus?
BharatIf you were able to access it earlier then you PSN account may had plus and it expired now.

youSo, are you saying that the franchise game that I had been playing is no longer accessible unless I join PSP?
BharatFor PSN console the PS 4 is required to access online features, however the early franchise mode are offline games, so you should not get this prompt when you try to access this mode
