Well, my Dad just finished the 2008 season on franchise without a hitch, but now that he's past the preseason for 2009, and playing the actual games for the season, he's having issues.
When he goes into a game (we tried the second and sixth games of the season,) he has no control of the players. We just get to watch from the sidelines. Coaching mode is off, so that's not the issue I don't think.
Total control simulation doesn't work, we've tried letting the CPU play the game on its own, everything. My own franchise (not past the 2008 season) is 100% fine, as is the Play Now section. We're really pretty stuck here.
Any help?
