Franchise Deep Dive vs Existing Franchise Issues
Ok, what I assume are only SOME of the new features that have been added have been covered in the deep dive video. Cool I get it. But adding these new features is pointless if previous bugs and issues have not been resolved that have made this mode a nightmare.
Can we please get a list of all the existing issues and mechanics that have had bug fixes and improvements?
- Are roster limits during the preseason - season - after trade deadline fixed? 50-23-50?
- Has the coach/player/prospect strategy/preference templates been improved and have missing templates for draft prospects finally been added? IE - "carry" "efficient" "don't block" for forwards and Balanced/Balanced for defensemen?
- Will coach strategy and preference styles actually have variety and be synced up with preferences from current and generated players? The current state of coaches and strategies is a train wreck.
- Are we able to fully edit players, strategies, and all the other aspects of the mode that we used to be able to that were uselessly removed?
- Has the trade deadline mechanic had any sort of improvement or fixes that will make it worth using instead of skipping due to the fact that its clunky and resets all your lines after using it?
- The UI got a revamp...great, but is it still painfully laggy and slow? If so all that redesign work is worthless.
- Will we be able to make trades during the RFA period like you can in real life?
- Will we be able to make trades prior to the draft like you can in real life?
- Has the issue of player attributes not matching up to their player type and strategy preferences been resolved? IE Snipers having low shooting attributes. Power forwards having low physical attributes. Grinders having insane puck skills.
- Do non-head coaches have any impact on the team now? Or at least some indication of what those impacts are? Can we view what their preferences are after we hire them?
Again, these are just a few of the issues that are in desperate need of fixing. And we don't need a deep dive video for this.
Really hope someone can provide something that will shed some light on fixes for existing issues and not just the new features that have been added for this year. Or at least be straight forward and say none of these issues have been addressed.
Some form of text document or page or change log that lists out things that have been improved or fixed would be great. I can't justify giving EA my money if all they did was add new features that will inevitably have just as many bugs as the existing features.
