But,, why did my OP get angry? He got the win. What's the big deal? I should be able to clean my controller whenever I want!

How would the other guy know? What would you think if you were playing someone and they 'deliberately' jumped offside to get kicked?

Couple of things. Clean your controller after the game and turn messaging off. Toxicity solved.

I did the first lot. The rewards were terrible. I won't bother going back.

Level 40. I knew before it even started that I'd never finish it so have just played what I played and I'll finish where I finish. The rewards outside of Season Tickets are mostly dogshit anyway.

At least let me QS a BND card so I don't have a binder full of crap like last year.

Personally, I've never had too much of an issue with whatever the latest exploit might be. 90% of the time there are fairly easy ways to beat it. The only exception I can think of is the RPO nonsense from last year. Yes, you can adapt to stop it but…

2 reasons.

1. Its a game that uses DDA and it will do whatever it needs to, to keep the game somewhere around even a lot of the time. If that means slowing a WR down a tiny bit by having him do that stupid hesi step or giving a CB a hard bump at th…

I would argue that to completely appreciate a sport, you must also appreciate its history.  I'm also a big Formula One fan and I love to read about and see video clips of legendary drivers like Niki Lauda, Jackie Stewart, Jim Clark, etc.  If EA were to limit the Legends program to only players who played in the 80s, 90s, and 00s, they might as well not even have it at all.

It's a decent reason why they shouldn't be in the game tbh.

Imagine an F1 game with Jackie Stewart in his Matra MS80. Manual gearbox. No DRS, PAS/DAS, ECU etc etc etc. Top speed somewhere around 115mph. He'd get minced.

So would all but a handful …

Yes. Also, I'm getting black patches on the back of helmets during games.

It's a buggy ass mess right now.

Just an idea but I often find CPU challenges involve a psychic defense that sets up knowing what play I've called. I'll  call a play, the D will stack against it but an audible  gets results. Might be worth a try?

No doubt, rewards are crappier. It wasn't that long ago you'd get all sorts of packs and cards for free that you could build players with via sets. EA just wants to milk its customer base for as much $$ as possible while putting minimal effort into …

You just know those Boom/Bust packs are heavily weighted in the Bust category. I take the recruitment pack every time.

I finished them expecting something decent in the rewards as it was a major effort.

I was disappointed.

Everyone complained last year on how 23 was better than 24.  By this time next year you all will be bitching about how 25 was so much better than the current.  Grant, this game is FAR from great, it’s getting a little exhausting listening to all the bitching about how bad the game is.  We know, it’s bad, let’s move on already.

Would you do that in any other situation?

You go get a burger but they've run out of buns and its overcooked.

You fill up at a gas station but it costs twice as much for half as much fuel.

You literally buy anything from anywhere and its both bad…
