Issue with promos this year

They need to bring back the daily xp with promos like last year with daily objectives completion. People cannot complete promo passes without playing the online, and sorry, I didn’t want to play this past showdown and make that 81 BS team. I would be more inclined to play these special online events if those stats were counted for my comp pass milestone objectives.  It’s either mismanagement by EA or on purpose to force people into BS choices on what to play.  I mean, in COD, you get to get stats counted in all game modes for 99% of events. Come on EA, fix this for season 2!!

I don’t disagree with the general point but  you don’t have to play that game mode to complete the pass. 

there is just enough exp in the rest of the challenges to get to rank 18 and get the 85/BND 88

The problem with the promos is that they suck.. Period.  They make them over complicated and the rewards are the worst in MUT history.  Will be increasingly more difficult to compete without dropping at least $50 a week, which is crazy.  This company is horrible.  The GG promo is probably the worst promo in the past 5 years - easily - bring back most beard - I believe you got a better reward for minimal effort than this.

Caveat, I missed the first 10 minutes of the stream, which I will go back and rewatch, but this seems like the most overly-complicated mess of a promo I have ever heard.   It is all the worst parts of the Mission MUT promo from last year, only on steroids.   I am just going to have to focus on disconnecting from the need to have all the shiny new cards every promo, and just play the game the way that I want to play it.

It's crazy. The game is 1 month old and yesterday I had nothing to do unless I wanted to grind through 96 challenges for a BND85 in UK or do something similar in the AKA promo for players with stupid names on the jersey. And, let's face it, no one calls Creed Humphrey 'Country Strong' to his face.

XP is ridiculously low, rewards are shit anyway and only getting stats when you win is just about one of the worst decisions I've seen EA make. Particularly when the other alternative is just to pay your way through the levels. How wild is that?? Just pay $100 on top of what you've already paid for a game that is essentially identical to the one you just binned and go straight to Level 35?

I wish they would give us the nats back when we do a champion set. At least do that. Would be cool to be able to put any 85 in or whatever it cost and choose any 3 to get back

Agreed-we need stats to track no matter on wins or losses. What if you play a whole game for 30-40 minutes and loose by one score?! Come on EA (happened to me the other day; came down to the last couple of plays)

Is there? Thanks for that info, I must have used my abacus incorrectly (lol)!
