PRESEASON
Before you begin the regular season, each team plays four preseason games. After the preseason
is over, you can evaluate rookies before moving on to the regular season. Use this information to
help finalize your roster for the upcoming season.
NOTE:
The CPU automatically sets your preseason depth charts so that
starters play the first half, while rookies and backups play the second half.
DURING THE SEASON
During a Franchise, you run user-controlled teams, on any week, at any point during the year
(you can control any team in Franchise mode). You can also make player trades (before the sixth
week of the season), sign free agents, and change game settings.
AFTER THE SEASON
Every season ends with the AFC-NFC Pro Bowl. After pro football’s annual All-Star game, you are
prompted to advance to the off-season.
THE OFF-SEASON
Build your dynasty through the draft or by signing key free agents. You control the moves for your
team and the computer handles the other teams.
IMPORT DRAFT CLASS
Before a new season begins, you can import an entire draft class from
NCAA
®
Football 2004
to
Madden NFL 2004
via your MU or hard disk.
TO IMPORT A CLASS:
1.
After the Pro Bowl has been played, Select IMPORT DRAFT CLASS from the end of season
overlay.
2.
Load the desired Draft Class file from your MU or hard disk. The players are imported to
Madden NFL 2004
and the off-season begins.
OWNER MODE
Take complete control of the financial aspects involved in owning a football franchise. Your goal
in Owner mode is to win the Super Bowl and keep your fans happy, all while turning a profit.
Hire your staff, set your team’s ticket prices, build your own stadium, reward key players with
signing bonuses, and more. Sign the best coaches to give your team an extra edge on the field.
Advertise and market your team, increasing fan support and motivating your team to achieve
more victories.
NOTE:
Owner mode is an advanced mode available when running a
Franchise. You may choose to enable it from the Franchise setup menu.
OWNER’S BOX
After training camp and the preseason, begin tweaking prices, gathering information, and
marketing your team to maximize profits and performance during the regular season. You can
make adjustments on a weekly basis. Gauge your overall fan support, view total cash assets, and
check out attendance and win/loss records. The more fan support you have, the more attendance
you rack up; more attendance means more cash in your pocket.
