Am I the only one? I like the batting style camera so long as I could dial in the stats using sliders to be somewhat realistic.

Big time disappoint for me. What's the point if you can't use the mode in a season setting and for that reason why not?

Perhaps I am missing something? 2k used inside edge religiously. See franchise game here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8s_YVQqmW48. And based on that thinking then why isn't IE in play now or season mode? I would love to hear explanation from SCEA.

I don't even know what rotating inter-league schedules mean. Of course Once I start a franchise I may switch teams every 4-5 years in the same franchise so the schedule never gets stale.

Teams never play the same division in interleague play in consecutive years - the matchups rotate every season. They don't do that in the Show, so you always end up playing the same teams in interleague.

I always thought we would be getting inside edge in play now and season modes too. Maybe for 18?

This x 1000000 I forgot all about promotion night! Why why WHY were these awesome things taken out of Franchise mode?? So frustrating.

In defense, the owner mode stuff was completely cosmetic before. It had no bearing on attendance or budget, hence why it was removed.

On the other hand I would like to see some of the stuff come back, but I am more interested in expanding on trading, free agency, budgets, player development, and almanac.

...which seems odd, in this day and age.
