I know that people will accuse them of lying and/or me defending the game/developers, but those are the reasons straight from the developers.Īnd you guys do realize that removing the old financial system and replacing it with real value contracts was a big under taking correct? It wasn't a simple process.Īnother thing been said before is modes are on, what, a 3 year cycle for major upgrades. The reason(s) franchise mode isn't seeing vast improvements is due to: They aren't sacrificing one for the other. SDS hasn't decided to neglect franchise mode in favor of Diamond Dynasty. Sent from my iPhone using Operation SportsĪs has been said before and I'll repeat it but it will fall on deaf ears because its not what people want to hear and it goes against the conspiracy theory that is wildly popular on the forums.

Maybe there’s more to it than I understand but after years and years of spending most of the manpower on this mode I would think SDS would eventually have the mode in a state where they can shift their focus to other modes. Do you all feel like Diamond Dynasty requires the bulk of development time? I know many of us on here are franchise guys and it just seems to me that Diamond Dynasty is simply online games, card collecting and tournaments.

However, I’m curious as someone that has never spent one minute on Diamond Dynasty, how much more can really be added to this mode? What are the things that the mode really needs or lacks? Again, I know very little about it so I’m asking because ultimately it would seem like SDS would get to a point where the mode is fleshed out enough that they have to ask themselves, “what should we do now.”Īnd my hope, obviously, is that they’d put time and money into the long-neglected franchise mode. There’s little doubt that it happens and it’s been like this a while as we are all well aware. I know this topic has been discussed at length, you know the one about how SDS puts all of their time and money into Diamond Dynasty and neglects franchise mode.
