A great back & forth down to the wire realistic football game against another diehard fan of equal skill level. Always nice to  play someone who isn't using exploits & playing like a straight up douche bag.

Playing against people that are playing to have fun and win not just win at the expense of having one ounce of dignity.

I really don't care if i lose if it was a fun game and i know what i could have done differently to win. It sucks when I lose to someone and feel like theres nothing I could do differently because they are exploiting flaws in the game.

A good match up for me always brings excitement.  Whenever ea let's me and my opponent play without interference i tend to enjoy these matches alot. What about you guys?

Anytime our schedules align so that we're able to play some (hopefully competitive) Squads games with the boyz.  After being introduced to 3v3 Squads play roughly one year ago, no other game mode compares.  Sucks that we're forced to play on All Pro / easy game mode, where QBs are rewarded for throwing into triple coverage and making tons of brain-dead reads, but overall there is so much potential and promise in terms of pure gameplay.  Sadly, EA doesn't have a clue how to begin to address a fair, competitive, balanced online H2H game.  Tons of fairly simple tweaks that would improve gameplay dramatically, but all EA cares about is running their little unregulated casino for literal children, uff.

It's mind blowing how much feedback they must get, only to do the exact opposite of what the community requests.  +1 for speeding up the Madden 26 gameplay, but they went backwards with CFB26, morphing it into a slower, Madden type game, which is quite frankly, less fun.  I don't want them to go full arcade, but clearly the majority of users appreciate the fast and furious gameplay.  There's always going to be that one random guy griping about how the gear isn't perfect or whatever, but quite frankly, i do not give one flying fuck about how my players look on the field, at least not when it comes at the cost of gameplay.  M26 got a ton of lipstick on the proverbial Madden pig, but at the end of the day, it's still the same buggy ass, inconsistent mess of a game under the hood.  Nothing short of a full rewrite could improve things at this point and that simply is not feasible given the yearly release cadence of the game.

MUT really needs to move towards the Fortnite model, a continuous release cycle, with cosmetic items that can be purchased from the store, potentially even free to play with whatever additional costs heaped on top to support the ongoing development.  Meh.  I'm just a grumpy old man yelling at clouds at this point.

I like your ideas but since business first thought is money first, how would ea keep up a fortnite model and still rack up the millions and millions they make per year? Ea knows that people will keep spending no matter how bad they treat us or poorly the game is. How would your idea work for them?
