Why have they have removed the basic ability to edit players in Franchise mode?

Im still so confused as to how this is still an issue. Literally every sports game has this ability in franchise and the NHL series had it too up until they added the chemistry system and completely ...

Attention, Franchise & Season players:

This is an important request.

Please list all attributes in game you want to be able to edit. If possible, list them with your highest requests first.

Example:

  1. Ratings (slider for attributes)
  2. Stick hand 
  3. Position
  4. etc
  5. etc

@EA_Blueberry
Player type/Player position/secondary
Potential range/Potential accuracy
Stick hand/Height/weight

All Senses attributes 

All Skating attributes 

All Defense attributes 

All Shooting attributes 

All Physical attributes 

All puck skills attributes 

Contract
Name (for generated prospects)

Ideally… the ability to edit all attributes is what we want and makes sense… it wouldn’t make much sense for us to be able to edit speed and balance but not endurance or agility… same with able to edit slap and wrist power but not accuracy.. etc.. 

so the list I have is in priority… but really all the attributes are on equal ground…

    Did you want attributes listed separately in a list?

    @heavydutyrammer 

    Thank you. Either editing the comment and adding that below or replying again with the attributes is fine.

    I agree with this

    @EA_Blueberry Thanks for looking into this Blueberry… also I want to point out that it is VERY VERY important that we can still access the ability to edit the players… during any point in a Franchise Mode play through…
    As for the reasoning why it was taken away.. I still do not know… but all of us gamers have stressed the importance of it… all sport games have it.. it’s how WE want to play the game.. it creates a better experience for us… if it’s about being able to “cheese” the game into being easy… who cares.. some people like it that way.. some people don’t.. there are lots of people who are hardcore dedicated that keep spreadsheets on their players.. self impose rules to workaround the bad trading system.. etc.. so I really hope they realize and understand that something like this (fully able to edit players throughout play through) is very important…

    Realistically, everything we are able to edit outside of franchise mode we should be able to edit inside of franchise mode. 

     

    I understand there may be limitations to real life players, but for cpu generated players, nothing should be off limits including name, height and weight. If we can’t edit these, then the system needs to be updated where player attributes match types, names match country of origin and young players grow physically.
