CPU Event Worth The Trouble?

I'm seeing a lot of chatter around how terrible the CPU event is.... a non all-32 Okoye is the reward, correct? And IF an all-32 version is made available from the completion sets, you don't necessarilly need the event reward card in order to upgrade is my understanding. It seems like the set reward is a fantasy pack where you can pick one player whether you've got them bindered or not. If that's how y'all are reading it as well, then for me, I ain't gonna bother with that nonsense unless I'm interested in those upgrade tokens really. What yall think?

Once I get done with the H2H event I might go through the mind-numbing grind of the CPU event. I will need to get some stats for the passes anyways. However, I am NOT looking forward to it.

I started and quit out multiple times. I am finding the event to be very poor gameplay wise, and not worth the headache. I do not need or want Okoye, though I am interested in if anyone knows if he will be pivotal to getting 60 TOTY chem. I haven't looked into it much, but it seems really hard to get 60 if all the 97s only get x1 chem.

I was thinking of grinding it just for the upgrade tokens. The grind of 4 min quarter full games is definitely a deal breaker. Ive also heard in round 2 your team gets nerfed like crazy ability wise and slower speed. So do I really feel like putting up with the shenanigans of EA's thoughtless event rules just to get a few upgrade tokens and a fb i really dont care for? Im still debating on  that.

I would only do it if he is all 32.  So..  I'm out.

I really like Christian Okoye and want to have him on my team, but I've gone through just three games of this horrible event and I want to quit. Now I've found out it just gets even worse as you progress. I wish they would have just made it two-minute quarters like the Combine event. I could probably stomach it if the games were shorter.

Is the other cpu event grindable? Im over 25 minutes in my first game, on top of not having any fun at all against these try hards...

Is Vick going to be the only card to use for upgrade tokens?  I've already got K9 and use crystals as the 2 backups so I have no need for Vick.  Is there any use in this release or word of there being another use at next release?

There's a set you can put 10 upgrade tokens in to get a 97 Champ.

Oh, cool...thank you!

Im on Game 13. If I get server booted, im done for the year. This grind has been awful.

I’m trying to do it just for the tokens for the Vick but by the time I finish the first run I’ll probably have enough tokens from the field pass and other objectives lol. Even with chew clock these games take long enough I can only do 2 at a time.

From myself, someone who did it and went 13-0 with minimal issues.

But what you've heard is all true. It IS tedious af, everything is on Comp difficulty, and yes, the X Factors that you may have on your players get nerfed from Game 6 onwards.

Only do this if you REALLY want Okoye (confirmed to be KC chems only) and/or the TOTY tokens that come along the way with it.

The last 3 games are just BS difficulty. You get no animations.
