Just got the game on Xbox Series X and I’m loving it so far. It’s actually the first game I’ve purchased from the WW1 series, so I wanted to ask anyone who has played a few of the games in the franchise.

One complaint I’ve seen people make about the games in this series is that they have a relatively short lifespan, with player numbers apparently dropping off after 2–3 months and lobbies eventually becoming filled with bots.
My questions are:

1. Why is this such a common occurrence with games in this series?

2. Do you think Gallipoli has the potential to be a game that maintains a healthy player base long-term?

Thanks again, and I’m looking forward to getting stuck into the game over the weekend.

Has anyone been able to play cross-play with their friends on different consoles?

I’ve got a question about connected franchise in CFB 25 and haven’t been able to find a clear answer anywhere online.

A friend and I are thinking about getting the game. From what I understand, there’s no connected Road to Glory mode, which makes sense. But is there any workaround where I could control a team as the Head Coach, while my friend plays as the QB on that same team as a locked player?

Basically, can one user be the coach and another user control a single player within the same online dynasty/franchise?
