Just Curious?

I feel like if i was to wait tell it went to EA Play, i would have missed out on to many promos such as seasons. There's alot of good players in those. I missed out on quite a bit cause I bought it after the superbowl. I'm not sure when it goes to EA. Next year I'm buying right at release

The fact Ea has made it harder to get players without spending money (getting rid of trade block/ tvps) Not making every player be able to be earned in some way. The game should be free than. The fact you have to spend $70 dollars a year for the game and basically it’s stripped down to spend $100 more or hours playing. Its ridiculous, and with the pack odds it should be considered gambling and banned to be honest. 

It should be guaranteed What you get because that’s where the addiction for some of these people come in and Ea cashes that right into the bank and they don’t change anything. They won’t even pay a decent price for the rights to so many players

That is what I do. I play this game from when it's heavily discounted to when the NFL season and fantasy football starts. This game curbs my NFL fix in the offseason.  One thing that is nice about the packs is to get the thrill and mostly disappointment of gambling but with little to no real life consequences. I didn't play last year because of personal reasons but I feel like this Madden is pretty good overall. I really like the season pass. I feel like you get a lot of bang for your buck in comparison to doing a couple shitty packs and calling it a waste lol

If every pack was guaranteed the market would be so flooded and nothing would keeps it's value. People are paying for the right to feel more exclusive. And hey EA would lose a lot of money but they are no different to every other company that preys on ppl weaknesses for profit. That is just normal

i started at the very beginning, only spent $5 so far, and have 15M total acct value. i have enough to buy the big guys, but i just know for anyone over 1M im gonna be dissapointed. it simply doesnt matter. its who can outcheese the other more. I won my fair share of mut champs and other modes ive done good but its just never satisfying tbh.

This is a super healthy way to view the packs, hats off to you my man.

How many of you are just going to stay on this year's Madden. From now on I'm just gonna get the new Madden when it's free to play on EA. Clearly I'm still playing but they have really pushed the game to pay to play. I love the content and promos but it's like unless you're swiping a credit card you're excluded from it. I mean I don't have 4 million coins for Stefon Diggs or some of these guys so the promos have kinda turned into like oh that's cool but I cant really look forward to it.

I put a lot of blame on the NFL for licensing to a horrible game

EA doesnt care about the quality of this game

They know football is the biggest sport in America and anygame would sell because its the only NFL optoin

This years game has the most inconsistent gameplay of the past 5 years

DDA makes certain game modes unplayable

You need to spend a lot of time or a lot of money to get a good team. And rewards for actually playing have gotten so bad. You could build a great squad just of playin weekend league. Long gone those days

Ya sadly man your not wrong it’s fun and I’m not amazing player by any means but when I grind the champs and then there is a new promo with a better  card in it anyone can buy it’s like 😑

That’s the point it’s a $70 dollar game you should easily be able to get players without spending more money or playing for hours. cards should not be going for 10 million coins and it just be the norm all the ltds are 4-5 mill all the time now. 
 

it’s a comp game so due to the it should not be so heavily favored to be pay to win. yes you can easily beat worse players with a better team but when you match with someone on an equal level it’s very hard to be competitive vs people who spend $1000s
