I have very similar opinions to yours. We most certainly should be able to customize a playbook! I forgot to mention that they took the Comp Pass. We definitely need the additional higher end rewards and packs that were given out in the Comp Pass. EA keeps taking and taking and taking. It appears that removing content and holding our paid for and earned players for ransom is what they "schemed-up" in the last year.
Do not give up on the solo battles! Even though you are not seeing a Battle Score or advancing in the standings, it is secretly keeping score and will reward you with packs full of players in the low 70's. If you keep up the hard work, and put in many, many, hours, and play dozens of games, you can turn these low 70's cards in to slightly higher low 70's cards! It will do nothing towards improving your team, but just imagine all the excitement of opening a pack that could give you a 74-75 OVR player!
You're funny. All well stated. So sad, yet oh so very true.
In the past, we could at least count on the art department delivering -- this year it's all basically the same bland stuff, clearly AI generated with some player pictures layered over top of whatever generic shit they decide. I didn't hate the Season of BOOM purple and blue hues, but there's nothing unique or special about any of this.
Remember how sweet that stuff was in uhhh M23, which i guess was my first real year back with MUT. I played that Jenkins card on my roster, purely because of the fire card art (and well, he fit the 49ers theme team). Or Furious George with the children's book style art / animation? That stuff was stupendous, we at least had small things to celebrate, despite the inconsistent nature of the game. Now it's just bland, the soul has been sucked right out. Of me AND the great game of football.
Guess i better fire up Remote Play to see about my new Tim Tebow Campus Hero. Bleh. Wonder how many Solo Challenges we'll get to suffer through today for basically no reward.
