Madden 26 franchise bugs/ issues

I'll start by saying i love franchise and that's really all I play so when we have so many issues its really annoying for me.

Rookie OTA's don't actually do anything. They just pop up randomly and no matter what you choose nothing happens with your rookies 

XP bonuses don't actually work.  There are a lot of player development abilities that boost xp but even when they are selected you don't receive the xp boost which is really frustrating. 

Wear and tear/fatigue is busted. Until it gets fixed at least give the option to turn both off instead of being forced into one or the other. I don't want to play with no injuries because I want it realistic but every time I leave it on even after turning injuries down to 10 by mid-season with half pads I'll have like 10 players out and while it should happen sometimes it happens everything even on players with 99 injury rating. I simulated a game where I had 5 running backs all get hurt and out for multiple weeks. That's just unrealistic. 

QB's airmail during WR drills in training camp making it incredibly difficult to get gold. 

Why does the cpu replace or selected abilities in weekly training.  It's super annoying that every few weeks I don't get to reason all 6 focus players because it automatically gets replaced. That goes for every ability such as work horse will automatically get replaced there is no need for that it should be left alone and I can change it if I want to.

Mentors are way more uncommon now and that is annoying for both xp for training and player preferences when I'm trying to sign free agents.  

I haven't gotten to pick goals for offensive players with breakout challenges like for defensive players with the easy, medium, hard and very hard goals.

Loading times are still too long for individual players but week to week is a lot better I think

Im curious what other issues you guys have found so far

    I noticed that the key to getting the camp counselor ability to work is to make sure that before your last game of the previous season that you have the ability in and active for your last weekly training. I was confused because of the weekly time it says they last but it works if you do it this way for a huge boost to your players xp gained from training camp.

    I was curious if there is something I am doing wrong with the camp counselor ability. I don't get the bump in XP that the ability says. Have you guys noticed the same thing? I apply the camp counselor ability, do the focus players drills; then I start training camp and I still don't get the extra rookie snaps or higher xp for getting gold like the ability states.

  • Coach goals aren't working anymore, not even the "win the game" one. They fk'd this game all up. Receivers can't catch jump or diving balls but you bet your **bleep** the CPU doesn't have any issues. It'll catch everything, your balls, my balls, his balls and her balls! 🤬

  • I actually hadn't noticed XP bonuses don't work. That's really frustrating and makes me feel even worse about Franchise now....so many issues with it.
