I can mute toxic players. It's EA's fault for giving us a game where your opponent can spam the same three plays with three inputs, and I have to prioritze twenty pre-snap inputs and then hope a guy will jump a route like I know he needs to. Therefore user interface is a close second.
This is the correct response/reaction here, IMO. I really was delusional enough to think i was actually signing up for simulation fatball, heh. Sadly, it has been nothing of the sort. I was hoping for the chess match you described above. I can't teach the 10 year old how or why he shouldn't be going for it on 4th and 19 from the own end of his field, because there's no real rhyme or reason. At least in NBA2K, kids are penalized for leaving matches early and can only get a couple quits in a 30-60 minute period before they're forced to sit out and think about the error of their ways.
And fo'sho, it's hard to fault the other community members, toxic or otherwise -- ultimately, it's EA who has created this mess, they benefit from us constantly fighting among ourselves, rather than focusing our ire on the real cause, which is EA Orlando / Tiburon itself. There's simply no acceptable reason for this painfully slow and outdated Frostbite engine, other than the mere fact they lack the time, resources and actual development knowledge to improve the overall state of the game. It's not feasible to do in a single calendar year, yet now they're having to pump out two fatball games per cycle (Madden & NCAA), so i think it's safe to assume they will continue to be clones of one another.

This one every once in a while there are some cool people that restore my faith in my fellow man though. I don’t play MUT Champs or Seasons though not a good section of humanity usually.

I actually started punting once we got 99 McAfee and noticed an increase in win percentage. My seasons don't get cut short before the playoffs anymore.

Who do you have on defense that's making stops four downs in a row?

I've been using BNDs on both sides of the ball. Eric Berry, Harrison Smith, Pat P. the season token players like Madabeast etc.
I'm using bums on offense too so it's smarter trusting my defense than 95 speed Keyshawn to make a play on 4 and long.

I have a hard time telling if this is a flex, or if it's good advice. I have a handful of NAT's, but most of my lineup has guys with better abilities.
I'm not speaking about beating guys in general; I win some, I lose some. I was talking about the guys who run 100% exploits every play.

using nothing but free cards is my way of boycotting this madden game cycle. I'm not feeding into the auction house frenzy but still getting the closest I can to simulation football.
I still get cooked by good teams audibling from RPOs to double corners because I simply don't the fire power, but thankfully I don't encounter too many of them to end my season early.
