Franchise, why?

All of the things wrong with Franchise, I'm sure it's all here somewhere but I don't feel like looking for them...

1: Bucket Challenge is almost impossible and they took away some training camp training instead of adding some

2: I bought the 3 slots for Extra Focus Player for Weekly training but it says they are locked still

3: I use custom playbooks and while my plays are still there, there are numerous formations I didn't want. And sometimes the plays I picked for the playbook just don't show up.

I've bought Madden since 1995 but this is making me contemplate just playing Madden 25 and never buy a new one again. I'm sure I'm not the only one to say this either.

Any and all help is appreciated

  • Bucket drop is terrible, among other drills. For the extra focus players you have to equip that ability in your weekly strategy for it to take affect the following week. 

  • I feel the same way, been playing this game since 1990 (and still have most of cartridges and old systems at my father's house), and for every couple of cook steps forward, they take away things that are truly fun in the game, I also create my own playbooks and it's frustrating not to be able to have custom form sub or even create them, and use them in my franchise, honestly isn't that supposed to be part of this whole process? I don't understand why some easy and good parts are taking away
