EA - Please save solo battles

The mode is absolutely useless.  Generally speaking I can do 95% of my solo battle objectives by playing 2 or 3 of them on rookie.  Leaderboards are pointless, you are actually penalized for playing at a higher difficulty level and the rewards are awful.  Don’t get me wrong the whole comp pass as it is right now needs to be reworked but at least playing MUT champs and seasons is still worth it.  Solo battles are just an afterthought.

I really didn’t think there was anything wrong with last years comp pass.  This year just seems like such a massive grind across all h2h game modes. You can’t be a mostly solo guy and keep pace.  You most definitely can’t be a seasons only player as the cp rewards are awful.  And even putting in work and knocking out 25 MUT champs games a week isn’t enough to really move your comp pass a ton.

Please rework these comp passes, especially solo battles

I love how difficult All Madden is right now too, but there’s just no reason to do it. 
 

I also miss solo battles as the away team…. I know, small potatoes.

I agree Solo Battles should be alot better. I remember last year near the end of 23 and we were still playing 83ovr teams and its no challenge and haven't been for years. Now there's no reason to ever play one ofnthe higher difficulties unless you just want a decent game vs the CPU. We just face low rated teams all year long 😆 😆. EA obviously wants us to play MUT champs all the time. The H2H seasons CP is terrible and the only wins keep stats is terrible. Solo Battles is just EA being lazy as usual.

i totally agree

Yeah, I would like to see solo battles be more relevant as well. They even still have the ranking system in the game why can't it just count for something.

This is somewhat related, but aside from the comp pass splitting the two modes up there's hardly a reason for champs and h2h to be separate game modes now as well.

They need to revert it back to the old format that gave rewards. Especially now they don't give BND cards from sets anymore. Every set takes at least an extra card.

Why are there harder difficulties if the difficulty means nothing anyway? I wish they would set up a rankings system and give you weekly and monthly rewards like they used to do. Right now, solo battles are just used to get fast CPs and move on. Waste of fucking time honestly

Where do I sign up to picket  in front of Orlando Office?

Agree 💯, solo battles and the comp pass is such a grind and I don’t enjoy mut champs with all the sweats. Not sure how long I will last this year with any of these modes.

This is another part of it too.  The overalls do not scale with the year well at all.  We’ll probably be playing these 73 overall teams on rookie for the rest of season 1.

They are trying so hard to drive engagement that they’ve basically completely devalued a mode for the people that actually like it.  Don’t get me wrong solo battles were never a super loved mode.  People that were primarily H2H would never touch it but now they have to in order to get the cheap XP.

I agree, I miss the old solo battles and rewards! I always finished top 10 and that bankrolled my team each week.

Agree...I miss the old way.  I never came close to finishing in the top anything...but I did hit Legend (or whatever the highest was called) by playing 11 full games on the hardest difficulty per week to get some sort of a reward...now...I play a max of 1 solo battle a day...score 100+points...gain about a thousand yards...and then log on off.  It is unfortunate as I used to like playing the solo battles as they mattered.

WE WANT FUN SOLO BATTLES!!! 
make ‘em historic or situational. Add some difficulty and force people to play all madden and give better rewards. I dunno somethin. I haven’t touched it all year because ive limited to to play and solos aren’t where the fun is at

Yo! I'd completely forgot about that...

I used to to place in the top 100, or whatever. I remember we would complain about the rewards then, too!  LoL

Wouldn't it be great if we still had that?
