I just got my account back from EA through the arbitration stuff after being banned within the first 2 weeks of last year during the autoban waves. I did the 1 RP from solos/FP but there seems like a MAJOR lack of content to grind to be able to get anywhere near completing a "bought" RP especially with how high they are this year. Any tips or am I just out of luck with a few days to go? Thanks for your time!
Honestly the RP cards are so much more expensive now…last time I checked it was 1.4 million per card….I was lucky to get them at around 900k when they first release them in the first two weeks….unfortunately I would say u are a little bit late…and EA doesn’t even care…the RP coin pack is a scam and I don’t recommend u opening any of them…I got 2 95s after opening 15 of them… maybe u can try stat pad and get the free pack from RP field pass in the hope of landing one RP player from the 95+ (I got Otto and DRC from that)… content wise there is no more content drop on madden 24 as madden 25 is coming next week…
Thats what I was afraid of. Everything is tied to expired field passes or gives BND card rewards. Guess I should just be glad I got unbanned in time to even get one. Thanks for the feed back though!

You're definitely not going to be missing out on all that much. The RP Program was entirely revamped this year. Not that it much matters, as EA royally botched (perhaps intentional delays) last year's RP roll-out. By the time i finally acquired all 33 of my RP sets, the cards had become essentially worthless, with the exception of Aidan Hutchinson's 87 OVR or whatever it was.
The mere fact we're only able to earn three total cards to carry over means that wouldn't have made a significant impact on your (or anyone's) squad. No specifics have even been released (yet) that i am aware of, but if EA has this Rookie Premier content ready and waiting for us in our accounts next Tuesday, i will be extremely surprised. Making us wait encourages more early pack sales.
It's been hard (at least for me) to dodge the hype when starting a fresh Madden cycle, but it's always the least fun i have all year. I regard the game as basically unplayable without certain abilities. So hard to pass the ball before we get velocity abilities. I just noticed that the stock Hot Routes have changed wildly this year -- as in, no more Wheel route for HBs out of the backfield, no Zig routes... how the hell are we supposed to beat Man coverage next week? We'll see how this "new" physics impacts things, probably going to be a lot of folks running the ball, as per usual to start the year.
Blocking still appears as bad and broken as ever. Sorry i'm just ranting wildly off topic at this point. Welcome back, man. You would have been unbanned for M25, regardless. How'd you manage to get the account back after all these months? I was never able to get my AH ban overturned from December 2023, perhaps because it was my second of the year. Who knows. I'm looking for an excuse to retire at this point and save myself the misery and suffering... but there's nothing else to scratch that NFL itch. I absolutely adore playing virtual GM, but it has been a ridiculously costly experience (without AH access, especially).

I loooved RP last year but I totally get ya. I got banned from one of of those ridiculous ban waves for "match cheating" within like a week of official launch maybe 10 days including early access and didnt bother to go through aribitration until right before CF25 came out on the off chance I'd be banned from that too. They never bothered to reply or negotiate with me just was unbanned when I happened to check one day (they still havent even emailed me to tell me I'm banned lmao this company is wild)
I was actually having a decent time in squads before then with my mostly RP team lol. If CF25 is anything to go by RPs will probably be like 84/85 tops. so 3 of those compared to 30+ 84s is a huge downgrade. Theyre promising champion level players but in CF25 those were literally only 85s day one. I was just hoping to get a little something even with the nerfed program because I always find the first month or two of MUT my fav before all the meta grabage and stuff sets in. Hasnt been the case with CF25 because H2H is completely 1 sided with defense being damn near useless. I'm hoping that isnt the case in MUT.
Appreciate the reply rant or not (hey we all need to do it sometimes especially about this game)
