Franchise Mode Ruined

You have completely destroyed franchise mode. Not being able to be an owner is a huge loss. Not everyone playing wants to be a coach. Then, the coach tree looks like rocket science, wtf is it? No tutorial on the coach tree at all. 

You need to patch this back to the old franchise.

    A patch for being an owner would be fantastic!  I know some of the features have moved to the coach, but it’s not the same without factoring in coach turnover like what happens every year.

    The Madden "Miracle Comeback"! Been a problem for years. Momentum and Home Field Advantage have always been a problem. I was playing against the Lions at home and went up by 17 right away due to turnovers, then Goff rips off 19/19 for 190 yards and two TDs to bring it back into line. AI is deeply flawed and has been for the better part of 15 years or more. I get it, momentum can swing, but rarely on a dime without some sort of big play from someone. In Madden, DBs and LBs just fall over or freeze too often once the player has built up a lead. At least it seems the interception and fumble bugs have been addressed.

    If they left Owners mode in. It would be the best Madden in years but for every addition there's a subtraction. EA cost savings methods smh!

  • No Owner Mode??? Why? I was so looking forward to purchasing the new game like I have since the 90's. But this is so disappointing. For me, without Owner mode, I cannot purchase the game. I will just play out the seasons in 25, then restart. Is there any way to get a roster update for Madden 25? I figure that's the least you can do for dedicated Franchise Mode customers. I understand it's your product to do with what you want, but the fact that you never said anything about this in the lead up promotions, has a deceitful feel to the entire matter.

    Yeah I'm a couple games into my Franchise for review finally and holy balls... it's a whole other monster from the Play Now experience. Everything in play now seemed pretty decent and balanced, but defense in Franchise is atrocious again this year. I've been toying with sliders and I literally don't know how to fix it.
