Here's a new follow-up patch to our previously released Franchise Update.
The major item you'll want to pay attention to here is the addition of a new trade confirmation pop-up, which allows you to control if you want to accept player offers and which players you wish to send in exchange.
We've also expanded and renamed (Rookie, Semi Pro, Pro, Veteran, Superstar, Legend) the difficulty levels to give players who are searching for that perfect AI difficulty experience more options.
Enjoy!
