The Season 4 Field Pass is a brutal grind!!

I am a grinder.  I do everything that I can to get XP every single day.  I grind the Competitive Pass to 200CP every time to get all the Season XP and the Training from the Competitive Pass player, because that is all they are for my team since the original Palo-Mao.  

I have maxed out every single Field Pass Objective and do my Dailies every day.  I currently sit about halfway between Level 64 and 65, 297,500 XP away from 99 Trevon Diggs, and 435,500 XP away from the Season 5 XP Collectible, which is where every Field Pass stops for me.  The rewards after that are just not worth grinding for, given the coins and team that I already have.     I was thinking we might get more potential for XP from a part 2 of the NFL Draft promo, but that appears to not be the case.   

This is my first year playing MUT, so I am not familiar with recurrent promos that might be coming, other than I see people talking about Rookie Premiere  and Golden Tickets.     What other XP opportunities do you all see coming soon to close that nearly 1/2 million XP gap that I need?

I do feel like this season is a lot harder, especially with only having two extra passes to work with

Well probably be getting some smaller programs thrown in. I could see 1-2 being thrown in we dont know about yet

More promo XP will come and you’re doing better than most so I wouldn’t be too worried

i stopped  ranting about it  this company does whatever it wants at this rate hell they might put the wiggles in ultimate team for a promo.

i hate that they gave us a longer season with more levels but didnt give us more daily objectives days for bonus xp, stopping at the 30 days again or whatever is ridiculous for it being this long

This is my point.  They elongated the Season, but didn't change any of the stat objectives, or timeframes.   The Daily Objective one being one of the biggest losses.    The pass was for 90 days, but the Daily Objectives ended after 30.

I am sure that it will, and I am definitely NOT worried about it.  It is just becoming increasingly hard to engage at this point for a "Gameday pack".

Agreed, I find myself playing less and less now as there just isn’t much to do in the game right now.

theres gonna be double XP given out towards the end of the season

There's a lot of positives about the implementation of the Field Pass, but I'm hoping it's not something that will suffer from incompetence next Madden.

Reward tracks for Comp specifically need to be dramatically altered, and they should have been toying with that in March and April when the player base dies off. I like this overall Season Field Pass change, but even Calvin Johnson isn't super good and probably should have had multiple zero AP buckets. It's like EA doesn't really think or project or plan how these rewards will go, they just sorta throw them into a random line and then create overalls and such based of them.

I want longer Field Passes like this, but I don't want dumb jerseys or insane XP objectives to gate off finishing it. I will grind the game just to grind the game, but man, I wish EA would appreciate my time a bit more while doing it.

Completely agree, that was the main way I got the do, and only 30 days? They should have added more

You're doing better than me.  You'll be fine and I'm pretty confident there will be plenty of XP.  We still have 40+ days (last time I checked) to complete it.

To be clear, I am not worried about there not being enough XP to finish the pass.  I am complaining about them making the pass so freaking long, but making all of the stuff they added crap rewards.    Grinding for 10K coins or a Gameday pass when you are nearly 2 million XP into a Field Pass is pretty ridiculous, especially knowing that Gameday pack is going to give me 3- 75 OVR cards and 3-88-91 OVR cards.
