Madden 18 Freezing

Every time I go to play my second or third franchise game it freezes during the loading screen before the game. EA please fix this I love Madden and I can't play when it's doing this.

    Before this gets buried in my response let me first @EA_Barry thank you for your response to this freezing issue. It eases tempers when the community sees the issue being addressed!

    Update to Date:

    I played another 3 hours last night (6 in total since the patch) and have NOT had a single instance of freezing SO FAR! I will continue playing and report back with my results and encourage others to PLEASE report back with their findings.

    To elaborate on your response EA_Barry, I agree deleting saves could be a necessary step in solving the issue. To clarify for others the steps I took:

    1. I deleted the game on my XBOX ONE and re-installed
      • RESULT - Still had freezing issues.
    2. I saw the new patch on game start up so I applied it. Upon game loading I deleted both my Franchise saves (Cloud, Offline) and started new ones.
      • RESULT - No freezing in 6+ hours of game play which was previously not possible for me.

    @EA_Barry Step 2 causes me a little concern for 2 reasons. First let me say that I didn't stand to lose much when I deleted my Franchise saves because I only recently bought the game so I had only 2 half finished rookie seasons. I didn't want to recommend this step to others without being sure it was helping because I know others stand to lose much more progress than I. Second, if patching has already potentially put our saves at risk, are we to expect starting over more than once?

After the update I played another franchise game and it not only froze up, it recorded my rushing yards as negative where they should have been positive. Played a second franchise game and it did not freeze or record stats wrong. I will try a new franchise today and see what I find. Please keep working on ya'lls end?

Thanks
