This is the only way I play this game. I'm still enjoying 23, so will probably wait till later in the year to buy this new version, same as I did last year.

Anyway, I never let the AI set up my expansion team. When the game asks, I always say no. Also, I always start unemployed, and then sim at least five to seven seasons before taking over an expansion team. I like to build up some history.

Also, during the draft, to make it more of a challenge, I allow teams to protect 26-28 players. And also, for amount of service time, I change from three to four. If you leave it at three, you can get some really good, young talent, which really isn't reality.

Just my way of playing, but each to his own way.
