Madden 2004 Problem - VGF

TheRealMovieman · 03-06-2004, 11:18 PM

Hello all,

After I just finished my 7th season in franchise mode, I went into the off-season mode. Within the schedule stuff, all the options were grayed out with only the last one, "Start New Season" available. After checking out other sections (to see if maybe I accidentally toggled something off) I went ahead and started the new season. It brought me back to the end of the season I had just finished and when I (again) went into off-season mode, all the options in the schedule were available, HOWEVER, there were no rookies to scout and when I went to resign players, it seemed that it had reverted to the beginning of the season (there were a couple of holdouts but nobody's contract needed resigning - which I know I did have some that were going to expire).

According to the manual, I should be able to play up to 30 seasons. Also, there shouldn't be a problem with memory because there's plenty of space on the card.

Anybody else encounter this problem?

Thank,
Brian

Dont' worry, I had this same problerm once two...
Here's the deal
1. Check all options
2. MAke sure you've completed everything, all Owner mode OPT, Full team (all REQ) pos.
3. If all else fails, copy to another memory card, it should work now,
4. If desparate, leave the system off for at least 1 day.

Well, first I'm not exactly sure what you mean for option one, but I did try 2 and 3 but it wasn't successful. I'll wait till later tonight to try again but it looks like I'll have to start a new season. . .

I hope it works for you.

Is this a fluke thing? Or could this well happen again around the same point? It's frustrating because I have a fairly good team (the defense needs some work) with a great running back (Steven Jackson from Oregon State).

Anyways, thanks for the help.

why have 3 good qbs on one team? You should trade 2 for low draft picks and a wide reciever or good offense or defensive player. having 3 good qbs on one team is a waste.
