Would you completely get rid of abilities in madden 24?

You invalidated any opinion when you brought up Regs. We're not playing Regs lol. This shit is arcade football and  y'all keep talking about unrealistic. NOTHING about MUT is realistic. Learn to accept it. I stand on my statement: take KOs out of the game and the game would be unplayable. Maybe y'all like to throw the ball with little to no repercussions, but that shit ain't it for me. Sorry.

Listen, I think youre correct about the ko thing. They just need to make it so WRs drop the ball more to balance it out. I’m not dealing with the unplayable bs that happened in the beginning of the year.

Abilities should not be the reason one card is better than another so in that case ig jus nerf them.

I like them they bring strategy into team building but they should remove a few

Short Answer: Yes

Long Answer: Yes

This perfectly encapsulates my thoughts on this situation

Yes indeed as well as X factors. KO's are extremely annoying.

Oh look, someone that responded to my comment with some actual sense. Yes change needs to happen, but we need to stop saying and expecting it, cause it's never coming. EA gonna have this license until they decide they don't want it, and they're gonna keep parading this product out because everyone keeps buying it. It's just like when folks shit on 2K. Don't mean nothing cause the $$$ keep flowing in. Stop buying and they'll be forced to change. But we (as a collective) will never stop buying.

They will keep license until NFL decides to take it back, the NFL is so against gambling and yet, they gave out their license to a game dev who made a football game, with heavy gambling involved, this is my opinion but EA isnt the only org thats out of line, the NFL itself is being hypocritical with its anti gambling policies, they do not enforce it if it makes them money, but when players try to do it, oh no cant allow that, I sincerely hope the NFL starts using their brains and revokes EAS license, and for good

I would. I don't like the ideas of my favorite players being unusable just because they aren't "meta" with abilities.

Yes. They need to program it like real football. A couple points I'd like to make:

1. QBs shouldn't need SFL/PLE in order to be usable. Just program the card so it plays like an NFL QB. They should play as if they have these abilities anyway. As for something like Gunslinger, it shouldn't be necessary.

2. Organic pass rush. No abilities. Shouldn't need ET and DON in order to generate pressure. Pressure should be determined by 1 on 1 matchups and personnel. If I'm blitzing 8 players then I should get pressure but WRs should be wide open. If I rush only 3 or 4 the amount of pressure should be lower, except in the case where an edge rusher is not double teamed and is vastly superior in ratings to the lineman.

If you blitz 8 defenders rn and don't get pressure, then idk what to tell you. Like when i blitz 6 I usually get automatic pressure...

Not tryin to be a jerk. Just confused on how you're running engage eight and NOT getting pressure....

Yes and no I think that abilities should be nerfed so sfl or ple are not needed to make a an actually throw a bullet pass. And take away start on X  Factors. But keep abilities just nerf them.

Yes. I’ve been playing mut draft, way more fun

1000% yes. And if they NEED to keep them, do what they did in 20 where only 3 players on each side of the ball can have abilities and an X-Factor. Sick of the KOs and Freight Train. That’s probably my biggest complaint from this whole game. Never seen such bigger bailouts in my life and that’s including Dashing Deadeye in 20 when there was no yard cap on it.

i agree with you that they overshot it this year with all the stackable abilities.

but i have to disagree on the M20 Part.
the fact that you could only activate 3 players on each side made the game heavily unbalanced,
cuz you pretty much never had a players to counteract the opponents abilities at the right place.
this led to the super OP run game in M20  cuz you didnt have all the secure tacklers for example.

i think they should definitly keep the AP-System for M24 but they need to tone down the ability stacks.
and some abilities like the Route KOs need to be nerfed a bit

They need to build the abilities into the specific player and make the user work toward getting it turned on. i dont really think players should get like 5 abilities and stuff. i think they should get like 1 per player. if you use an edge rusher with edge threat elite, why should you get no outsiders, you should have to have a guy on the bench with no outsiders (like force the action of subs, most players are specialist at a certain thing for the most part). That's why teams get big wr for redzone and small shifty wr for quick screens or to take the top off the defense, etc. 

Limit repetitive play calls, it forces a shitty cycle of the same play on both sides. make players actually get tired if they are used every play. I also would like them to have injuries to some degree. Like imagine patrick willis hits flash (puts him out the game) and now your opponent is forced to pass. That's a football game. 

custom playbooks for everyone. so you just craft your own playbooks.

Yes please !!!!! It's completely ruined mut
