My dad and I have been playing Madden together since I think Madden 15 on PS4. Last August we got PS5's and Madden 23 created our Online Franchise September 4th, which was before the September 8th Title Update.
We played through the entire 2022 season. When we do the draft, I start it and then pause it right away so we can through our picks and we've done it this way since we started.
PS5 Madden 23 was a little different. We got through the draft and then simulated preseason games, reduced rosters and got to Week 1. Then were disconnected and when we came back, it was 1st round, 10th pick.
Figuring it was a once-off glitch, we did the draft again. Same exact result. We did the draft a third and fourth time with the final time my dad played Week 1. When he clicked Finish Game, it reverted him back to the draft.
I've seen (Tweeter, Reddit) that this has happened in Madden 22 as well as others having this issue with Madden 23.
What can be done about this? It's really annoying to invest time and then just have to start completely over.
PS, Why was seeing who you drafted removed? It's astonishingly foolish to remove that.
Having the same franchise loop back issue for the last two weeks. The removal of seeing who your drafted was dumb. Makes me think the people who are creating the game don't play it. EA, fix your product.
