So I give a lot of credit to a couple of guys who were active in that thread for providing food for thought. I originally got the idea for a DIY-type of Expansion Mode this from this thread: which is from last year. But there is only a relocation option, not expansion.Or is there? One way to accomplish having "your own program" and also being challenged would be to start from scratch with a weak expansion team.

Also, the issue with a straight fantasy draft is you tend to outsmart the cpu (getting young talent with low cap hits) and that makes me feel cheesy. Meaning, new team, new stadium, new coaches, custom playbook and so on. In past Madden titles, I probably would've done a fantasy draft to get all "my own players" to fit "my scheme," which tends to be an unforgiving smash mouth/road-grating style, but I wanted to take it even further. I would much rather be playing NCAA Football in the fall, but.obviously.Īnyway, in thinking about it, some of the main reasons why I really enjoy NCAA Football (and college football in general) are about variety and "building a program" where you have total control of the guys on your team.

I'm more of a college football fan these days and this is the first Madden title I've purchased in 4-5 years. A little bit about where I'm coming from here.
