Anybody know if there's any way to turn off the Xbox One automatically recording clips of every touchdown?
I really hate that feature... I hated it last year and I especially hate it this year. It's not like games like PowerStar Golf or Guacamelee where it records a clip when you do something awesome, this is every touchdown scored by you or the CPU AI and it's really annoying... Plus the "clip recorded" statement usually comes in on the XP or during the kickoff, which is super annoying.
A cool feature very poorly implemented.
I tried connected franchise but then I was only playing as one player and had to skip parts of the game until it was that players turn
Quit and restart your CCM... It gives you an option to start it as a coach or owner. With both of those, you get to control your team and play through multiple seasons like usual. The owner setting lets you control the team with stadium upgrades, concessions, ticket prices, or ultimately deciding to move the franchise. The coach is similar, but minus those ticket/price options, and adds mroe refined player management system. Both have full off season control (eg, drafting, signing, trades, etc).
You can switch what you want to do at the end of any season in CCM... so if you start as a coach, you can switch over to be a player 10 years into your CCM, or then switch back to be an owner after that player gets traded or something. It's cool. But your best bet is to just restart as a coach/owner for now.
