Will Madden 16 freeze as much as Madden 15 has?

I just want to play Madden, that is all.....I mean even when the characters looked like blobs on the screen it actually worked and was playable. I am wondering if you guys think this years game will be as bad. I really want to buy the game still but I wish it would work. I am playing on PS3 by the way and am experiencing freezing all the time when playing CFM offline. Also if anyone could help me with this issue in general that would be great. 

Thanks

    The freeze on my PS3 with offline CFM on Madden 16 has begun. Just went to start career and the game FROZE. This is the 2nd consecutive edition of the game this has happened on. I have purchased EVERY previous version of Madden and am a very loyal, yet extremely disappointed customer.

    Similar problems on XBOX One.  This franchise has become a joke.. they must not test anything.

    It's pretty ridiculous. EA us basically running a monopoly because they sell junk games that work under 50% of the time and own the rights to the name. Awesome that the graphics are great but doesn't really matter if I can't get threw a quarter of H2H without it crashing completely. Thanks EA for letting me waste my earned money.

    Playing on PS3 and guess what...madden 16 still freezes just like 15 did. What trash. Don't waste your money folks, this franchise has become a joke. Completely ignored the issue last year even though it was rampant, just read the boards. I have no faith they will do anything this year. EA has yet to even acknowledge there is an issue. Bought a disk in 15, couldn't stand it. Downloaded 16 hoping that might help, nope. Seriously frustrated and completely disappointed. Never again EA, never again.

    Been trying to play Madden connected franchise which is my favorite gamemode, but it is not even playable. In Madden 15 every time after a game it would freeze and stay frozen making me have to restart my ps3 and run the revoery. I would not have saved progress and it was a waste, why play when you can't even finish a game. I then stopped playing Madden 15 and decided when Madden 16 came out I would give it a shot. Waste of time and money, the same thing happens in Madden 16 my connected franchise freezes after every game and it is * me off. I really hope EA will fix this as soon as possible or you won't be seeing me buy anymore of their games. I am sorry if I come off mad but I played for a working game not a broken one. I know it is not my ps3 cause I have tried it on several and it happens to a bunch of other people too. I thought it would be fixed in Madden 16 please fix it. 

    I play PS3 
    Connected franchise mode 
    Salary cap off, trade deadline off and pre existing injury off everything else default. 
    I do fantasy draft with 4 minute quarters 
    I have tried both playing while online and offline both freeze after a game 
    Win or lose either or it freezes at the loading screen at the end of the game. 
    Please fix this I just want to play my game without problems. 
    Thank you

    It's a bit of a workaround, but the only solution I have found is you have to let the post game replays/review play out. When game ends DO NOT press any buttons, just let the game take you to the quit screen. It works every time for me. Still a pain in the * and something that should've been addressed by EA last year.

    I hope this helps.  I'll try it.  This really sux!  I can't believe EA hasn't fixed this or even acknowledged it as a problem.

    Okay guys just wanted to let you know that if you are in my situation (offline gamer playing CFM) I have the fix. You need to do a hard reset of the system and then disable the network in the settings. No freezing since I did this, the ea support team actually helped me. 

    Hope you can play your game soon.
