That the people putting these promos together have never played the game.

Why else would they release these cards for Easter?

Baked on AP when we barely have enough to activate as it is.

It took until this promo for you to figure this out? It’s been clear for a long time these programs are designed to maximize profits and less about maximizing the potential.

Its been happening all year

Once amazing promo, followed by 2-3 mid ones

There will likely be 1 more amazing promo...Reel Deels or Fan Apprecation?

Upcoming draft mode will likely stink also

I removed your last line since it was just an insult. Detracts from your point.

I think TT Surge will be the last good promo until RP

I don't know how you profit from this promo though?

It's all trash, I would have been happy if any of the LTDs were worth keeping, since they were essentially floor level champions, but that wasn't even the case.

I quick sold all but Richardson, Is rather take my chances with the Karrot conversion than to hold on to NEW cards that can't make the roster.

All the hype for nothing.

When I say to maximize profits I am referring to EA. I've been a NMS player ever since I started playing Madden online and every year it gets more difficult to stay that way. It is emphasized by their promos they care more about catering to money spenders over people that actually grind the game to build their team.

My bad, you were referring to the BIG picture 😁

It's sad that we have a passionate fan base who wants nothing more than to enjoy playing the game, then you throw in some corporate suits and they turn the game into a mix of a casino and Sci-fi version of NFL football.

I love the team building part of the game, but I hate how the entire focus of the game is on the latest greatest promo and you $25 opportunity for LTD or a $100 offer to open a pack, containing a card that will be worthless in a month.

Meanwhile the actual gameplay STILL consists of calling the same handful of plays the entire game 🎮

Yeah I am right there with you. I enjoy the process of building my team, strategizing and grinding my way there. But if this is where I end up I am not sure if it is worth it anymore. I know people like to flap their gums about quitting the game and never do but I have actually skipped the game completely some years and I am more than likely not pre-ordering the next game. There just HAS to be some competition at this point or EA needs to do something different because the enjoyable parts of playing the game have degraded too much at this point.
