Absolutely not. They make all of their money off people with no financial sense that spend several hundred per week to gamble on packs for the chance to get a card that costs $0.00000000000001 to create and aren't even guaranteed to get it.

Correct, something liek ~70-75% of their earnings seem to come from live service (i.e. MUT/FUT/CUT) microtransactions. I was really hoping this would be the year that the league decides to open up the twenty+ year long exclusivity agreement with EA... sadly, it appears we're going the opposite direction. Take Two Interactive is already retiring their feeble attempt at some NFL card game, where you can't even play football.

I couldn't even remember what the game was called, that's how non-meaningful it was. Barely lasted a year. Cannot imagine the league is pleased with this pathetic mobile title... meanwhile, we STILL have yet to get an arcade style NFL game from Take Two. Not looking good for us, I have to assume EA gets another 5-10 year deal.

I'm just frustrated. A full year of development time and we get... weather? @kaotikords heavy snow, fog, rain that will affect player movement should be interesting. Sounds bad for competitive gameplay.

And maybe that bullshit wear and tear system from College game?

Custom Defensive Zones should be interesting, although I'm not convinced EA knows how to implement effective Zone drops.

+1000 new plays is what we should have gotten for M25.

Every single year they say,"we've listened to your feedback" and it becomes quickly and abundantly clear that they have not, did not and will not give a single flying fuck what the community wants.

If they would listen, they'd take 2 years off. Ravamp the whole code. Get rid of abilties.

Just be glad they havent brought back contracts LUL

They're not really going to have us falling down and constantly slipping and stumbling (as a ball carrier) because they added some bullshit weather effects, right?

This is for the offline players only, right? I'll be oh so sad if they force us to play in snow in Ultimate Team.

Gosh, I need to retire from this nonsense. Enjoy!

Pretty harsh to call people who play offline cunts...you're a special kind of douchebag Peatrick.

Remember when injuries in MUT were a thing? You'd have to use a healing item to get them back the next game. I remember losing both my QBs to injuries and had to have my punter just hand the ball off every play.

The trailer looks good - but they always do.

I'm still undecided if I'm going t o keep playing after 25 though. I probably will pre-order but these past few weeks I've barely played and haven't missed it.

The weather will be the excuse when something is glitched.

Your defender can’t cover the cross route - weather

Your qb over threw a wide open reciever 30 yards downfield - Weather

Cards weren’t in packs when they were supposed to be - WEATHER

Content was wrong and the people who work for a living wasn’t able to take advantage of the glitch that was giving out the top card for a half hour and we can’t fix it so the auction house is crazy and the people that made a bunch of coins of the glitch - WEATHER!!!!

We patched a glitch that benefited the community in 10 minutes but the glitch that benefited EA will take 20 days - wEAther

There is an EA in weather.

Now Punters can’t even hand the ball off without an automatic fumble on the exchange.

So fucking psyched man! Getting MUT weather was at the very top of my Madden wishlist. I can’t think of anything that could top that. For sure going to be the best Madden in years!

I'm a cunt if I spend hundreds or don't spend hundreds? I'm confused. I definitely do not spend hundreds or even a hundred.

Nobody on here actually thinks you’re a cunt. @peatrick seems to have casually thrown the word cunt in there without realizing it would offend some. I highly doubt he had any malicious intent.

Either way kudos to you for spending less than a $100 on this game, that in my book makes you much better than a cunt!

Also if it makes you feel any better, on my way home from work yesterday the person driving in front of me pulled over just to flip me off as I passed them. I still have no idea why… oh well maybe I’m the cunt?
