Thank you for the update we'll make sure our teams here are aware.

    The issue is definitely not fixed on Xbox Series X. Issue occurs in offline franchise mode only for me.

  • @EA_Blueberry. can you guys please put it out as soon as you guys fix this? I do not want to wait for another "title update".  We all really want to play asap. Thank you!  We appreciate you for checking up with us once the title update was released! 👌

    Yeah can confirm it’s happening too on Xbox series x, offline franchise 

    Since it’s the only mode I play, I guess it’s time to stop playing madden. No point on giving money to a company that don’t care about their customers

    This is beyond disappointing. How could they not have fixed this by now? Like most people here I have been waiting to enjoy a game I paid for months ago. I am sticking to my previous statement that this will either be the last madden I buy or at least I won’t ever buy the game at launch until the dev team can show me they actually care about franchise players. Also, thankfully New World came out because at least that is playable.

    Thank you, I'm under the impression it's working for CFM.

    Question for you all, is it still happening to you when you create a new franchise? I want to confirm it's still happening for new offline franchises because some fixes may not be retroactive to existing save files.

    @EA_Blueberry Thanks for the quick answer. Yes, it does occur on new franchise. I created 3 or 4 new franchise, simulated a full season on each, no pass > 25 yards on all of them ( with both custom and default sliders, on coach mode )
  • @EA_Blueberry  yes sir. Everytime I created a new offline franchise, it still says 25 yards or less and also WR's longest catch is also 25 yards or less. Not just QB's longest pass.

    I start a new offline franchise every time I test the bug, it still isn't fixed.

    I do know that it must be an OFFLINE Franchise for sure. Online the stats are fine, but you can't control 32 teams online, so that's the downside. If you choose offline franchise mode with any roster and sim a full-length season to the playoffs, go to check the stats screen and no QB has thrown for more than 25 yards in a game as their longest pass. This severely limits the passing yards and you may only see 1-3 4,000 yard passers which are very unrealistic. Similarly, the longest reception for every receiver is 25 yards.

  • @EA_Blueberry  please please have the dev team put the patch out asap when you guys fix it. Pleaseee. We really want to play now. Thank you again for replying and getting us in the loop! 

  • @EA_Blueberry. We had another title update today but nothing about this was on it. Danggg. We just wanna play franchise Mann. It's been months since I haven't played.

    Thanks you EA. By releasing such a buggy and bad update, you’re going to save me a lot of money. Now that I know that you don’t care at all about franchise mode players, I can go back to playing old nfl 2k/ madden on ps2. No need for me to ever spend an other $ on an EA games.
