UPDATE:
EA has finally talked about the server-down issue. According to the Madden Franchise Team, they have attempted to roll out a server-side fix to address the issue where some Online Franchise Leagues were unable to login. But after rolling-out the fix, Franchise servers started to lock up.
“Late last night, a decision was made that we had to gate all of the Franchise Online modes to prevent all the Madden servers from locking up, which would have impacted all game modes”, Madden Team added.
Also, EA says that Franchise Online modes will be offline until further notice. Also, both Offline Franchise and QB1 are still available to play.
Update: December 1
Servers are down again for many users. Have a look at the current outage map down below.
