Other than they added a whole bunch?

I'm trying to get them to set up a link where people can view them but I doubt it happens.

That's cool. A link would be nice, but I understand that they need to save some secrets for release.

I doubt it would be about secrets. More about spending time to put it together only for the same to release in a couple weeks.

I understand. Where are you guys going to relocate? I'm thinking Cleveland to Toronto Thunderbirds or San Diego to L.A. Red Dragons.

WHAT?!? Don't do my Browns like that!!!!

Nah I would probably move Jax to Mexico City, Buffalo to Toronto, and Pittsburgh 6 feet under ground in a 3rd world country.

Ha....Browns will be the most exciting team with Maziel IMO. Canada is near and dear to my heart, that's how that decision was made. I was hoping to see the uniforms before release. Gotta look good where ever I go. Preferably red uniforms.

I really enjoyed the last stream with all the Connected Franchise stuff, the only thing that I was disappointed in was there is no sports ticker in the game. This would of been the 3rd yr the NCAA Football had it. Not a deal breaker by any means just don't know why this didn't get in considering the presentation was overhauled.:wtf:

You aren't the only one that feels this way. I have heard that quite a few times.

However, I can't wait to see the tv style graphics. Playoff race , upcoming schedule etc.

so since they are already working on madden16 as Looman said in the interview with you guys , here is what i feel needs to be added to CFM for next year:

1- Customizable Draft Boards!Let us pick who and in what order we want em . Should allow up to about 50 players at least .

2- Allow users and commish to put themselves on "simulate" for that weeks game from the CFM website!

3- Fix the "know your opponent " feature , so that it seperates info dealing with CFM'S, so it only keeps track of each owner in a CFM and will tell you THAT players tendencies only . No one elses info should be brought into that. Let it only show the individuals CFM tendencies in that particular league.

4- Weekly update show on leagues main menu page, Showing videos from games that had been played that week. Maybe take the videos from halftime show and after game highlights and have a weekly wrap up of things around the league , including league leaders in stats, injuries, etc.

5- Put a limit on how many practice drills 1 player can do each week. Like only allow them to do 1 drill per player per week.

6- Have each league game save info ( Score, stats, possesion ,ball position , etc) at least at the end of each quarter , so in case of DC , players can pick back up somewhere fairly recent and not have to play a full hour game twice. The info could overwrite itself every time it saves, then after game is finished it could delete itself as it wouldnt be needed anymore.

7- Bring back communities , and allow us to link 3-4 leagues , so we can import our league rosters for each team we build in our CFM's, so we can actually practice more with our teams and try out different plays and see who fits best where.

8- if it hasnt been fixed in m15 , fix the issue of numerous players being hurt in games that get simmed in online CFM's . Too many players are getting hurt.

9- Bring back live weather. Once before the weather in game was linked to the weather channels website , and whatever the weather was in the city you were playing in , at the time you played, was the weather you played in.

10- Custom camera angles!

this is a top ten that needs to get to work on now, since they have already started working on next madden according to Looman.

Thanks poohty_t, your list looks a lot like the one I wrote up a few weeks back. From a commissioners perspective, it is spot on for where we need the game to be next year.

 

[Golden Taters]

Do CPU teams only wear their alternate uniforms or throwbacks too in CFM?
Can we have them expand more on what they have tuned regarding CPU trade and FA logic?
Was there more different stadium designs added for relocation?
Can we choose our captains in CFM?

 

[ovfd55]

Does coach still get XP in practices or just players?

Does Confidence affect contract talks at all?
Examples
1.If RG3 is playing great would he want more money on contract with his high confidence?
2.If I Don't get Garcon enough touches and his confidence goes down is he less likley to resign?

How do injuries affect confidence?

Thanks Mr.Bill . As a commish ,these are these things i see that really needs to be addressed just from what i have heard so far . Random draft classes is a huge boost for online leagues and i love to hear its coming to m15. With that said, there are many things moving forward i feel they really need to focus in on . I have heard it said , they didnt have as much time to work on m15 because of having to make the game for both last and current gens . That being said, i hope they will really look at the things i listed and really tackle them for m16.

Guys, I'm happy to announce that RedZoneD25 from the Madden Connected Franchise team at EA will be answering CFM questions for VSN members! I'll be starting another thread so that we can start with a cleaner list for him.

When you're an owner/coach in CFM, will you be able to change your "coaching philosophy" (i.e. run/pass ratio, workhorse/RBBC, zone/man, etc...)????

Also, are simulated stats going to be more realistic during seasons? I got pretty sick of Qbs throwing 20 INTs and only 10 TDs with a 40% completion rate...and that being an average season
