Re: Franchise: Would adding Head Coach's Offseason & Injuries be enough of an improve

I haven't got Head Coach (unavailable over here), but if that list was in the franchise for next year I would LOVE it. At the moment, my personal experience with franchise mode in 09 is that:

1.Long term injuries (IN-GAME, not simming) are nearly non-existent.

2.Scouting seems pointless and has very long load times for ordering lists, searching through categories (i.e. qb, hb, wr), selecting individual players.

3.The preseason mode seems pointless as players don't seem to progress or regress in ability.

4.Offseason is ok, not terrible, could have more detail. Does upgrading stadium (buying cup holders etc) increase income or fan sizes or anything like that?

5.Can't talk players out of retirement after a great season.

The list you posted would make some great additions to the franchise as it is now. I still play it, but I would play it a hell of a lot more if that stuff was in it.
