i’ll still just giveaway my team when im done with it, just wont know who is getting it now…cause i wont care about getting banned, im done with madden after this year anyways, but any cards that i have and aren’t bnd will just get thrown up for 250 coins each at random times through the day, i will at least announce here when i start the process of it but wont be for awhile cause gonna have fun with an OOP squad now since backyard ballers is dropping

Exactly

if I go back on this year, I’ll probably just be putting my 99 OVR team up for 250 coins each.  I’m done with this trash bag company and they’re stupid glitches/incompetent programmers.  Time to move on.  They are going to feel it next year when their “engagement” that they always like to talk about is down 75%, but they still have like 50 YouTubers still playing since it’s a tax write off for them…..

HOORAY! 

Let's hope it never comes back.

If they really wanted to stop the trade block abuse, just make traded cards BND with a reduced QS.

That and dont allow platinum and LTD's to be traded or make them lose all value period.

I think this is a clear example of EA's laziness. Instead of brainstorming fixes they just remove it. In addition, as ActualCC pointed out in his video, over half of the store offers require money instead of coins, and field pass rewards are still BND.

So essentially EA doesn't want to fix an issue, they don't want to reward us for leveling up, and they still want more money despite not being willing to put in the effort to create a polished product. 

A few of the many reasons why I will not be buying Madden 24.

thanks to all the bums on console with burner accounts ruining it

Honestly I like giveaways but not many people do them. I ignore them. It’ll just stop people using secondary accounts against TOS to have an advantage

Ultimate Team Trade Block Update: To ensure fair play for all players, the Trade Block in Ultimate Team will be permanently gated for the remainder of Madden 23. Check out this article for more information on the rules of Ultimate Team: https://help.ea.com/en/help/madden

“To ensure fair play for all players” 

LMAOOO EA is always finding ways to be a joke. Who in their right minds actually bought this line?

So gg points are useless? Well I will be saving all of mine.

No GG points are not done through TB those are EA grants

New idea: just change in store pack offers to only coins and take out points and you can buy coins in game and training too so the in game currency everybody gets is the currency that you buy everything for not points and have all packs be coins and training with better odds. Eggs having TOTW players is such a disgrace that the high you could pull (remember the hardest to pull) is a 96 in April. Just the gameplay and shit that goes on behind the scenes makes me wonder why EA had to take the call in for EA Help off because they can’t get enough workers to do it. When everybody starts playing NCAA then they will go down the same rabbit hole of pay to win bullshit.

Who else has literally never used the trade block?

Interesting, I wonder if they'll remove it from 24 or change rewards.

More importantly is I wonder if they are going to stop any "glitches " from  happening in Madden 24? The glitches is what ruined the game for a lot of people, both the people who got to take advantage of the glitches and those who didn't
