I log on to Franchise, go to notifications and click on the top one which seems to backdoor me into MUT.</p>boujeevader said:For the last couple of weeks everyday I try to sign in, it will tell me that I have lost connection to the EA Servers, some days it just wont log in. If I keep trying at times it will log me in. Its honestly so infuriating. It gives me no reason either.

Who is the better player?

<p>Was looking to upgrade my Raiders TT and saw the new TOTW Wilson. I currently have the free Zadarius Smith. Both will benefit from the 55 Raiders team boost my roster currently has. </p>

<p>This is not DDA.</p> <p>Difficulty adjustment (which is exactly what it says it is) makes the game easier or harder and can be set in almost all solo games by the User. Its long been suspected that the game ALSO sets a level of difficulty before or during…</p>Moderator Sevein131 said:Dynamic Difficulty Adjustment, you can search that term to find out more but there's essentially no concrete proof DDA is active in any EA Sports games.
Most of the time, DDA is used by the Madden community as an excuse to cope with why they have lost to what they would describe as an inferior team, completely ignoring that their opponent may not be inferior. Hence why many say "scheme over team".
The game is too animation based and depending on the dice roll, some animations go your way and other times animations go the other way. It's just what we have to deal with until someone comes along with an alternative for us to get our licensed football game fix. But that doesn't mean DDA is in the game.
I always simply recommend that anyone who claims DDA exists and lesser teams get boosted, to play with a lesser team and see how many more wins they get. If it exists why not take advantage of it? At the end of the day it seems that most who claim they only lost because of DDA are expecting instant wins from the team they bought vs someone who chooses not to buy all of the most expensive items for one reason or another.
Finally, I think DDA would go against EA's model of wanting to sell more packs and players. If I can field a lesser team, get assistance from the game in the form of DDA and win comfortably, why would I spend money or time to improve my team? It just doesn't make sense, but what does make sense is the animation based system used to simulate football needs an overhaul so it doesn't feel so random at times one way or the other and actually make every attribute point matter instead of making tangible improvements threshold based.

<p>It's a poor game. Graphics are decent (its 2025 though so, yeah) but the gameplay is woeful. Tackle mechanics were probably the worst I've seen in years - "physics based tackling" my arse and there are still way too many examples of winning games by…</p>
