the state of mut lately

we all know EA has never really cared about the community and always does the bare minimum but has anyone else noticed that it just keeps getting worse TOTY was so mid they can't balance abilities one promo is always OP and the other is trash plus the rerolls this year are the worst they've ever been you only get  rewarded if you open a 100 dollar bundle because the topper is good I like how the topper guarantees a champion but make it rewarding for the people who can't drop 100 dollars on the game if you don't buy a bundle its like your behind plus the field passes suck bring back mut levels and give us our rewards for promos in challenges

I'd even settle with them providing us with a fair, balanced, hopefully competitive gameplay experience. I couldn't imagine trying to run through MCS style play, there's just far too many game breaking bugs and glitches, making for ridiculously inconsistent "simulation" fatball.

Perhaps after this year, all the morons running around trying to pretend "scheme over team" is actually a real thing will finally shut the hell up... doubtful. I'm not aware of many players who could legit compete with a thousand dollar squad, filled with X-factors that remain active all game if they started this afternoon with, let's say a 2500 Point starter team or whatever they cost.

This game is clearly pay to win. You might be able to remain "NMS" but those folks are still paying with hundreds of hours of their time, often working MUT menus and auction house sniping, etc. Poor kids fail to realize how valuable their time truly is. I'm here for recreation, competition, hoping for entertainment value. I don't want to have to get a MUT Economics degree, uggh. Although I very much enjoy the process of crafting a squad. Wish they'd make a "salary cap" league or something, to try and even the competition, or something without any abilities. 

EA is probably using AI to generate a ton of this content, they definitely don't play the damn game, let alone test anything. Buggy ass mess. Art department used to be a rare amazing aspect of the game, lately we're getting solid colors... again, just more low effort, constantly recycled BS.

/sigh 🤬

This is exactly how I feel. Especially when you watch any YouTubers to get tips they all have millions of coins and points galore. It's sad that this has become the norm. I enjoyed madden when it was more focused on fun and not just "grinding". I grind real life, games shouldn't be a grind.

Most of the youtubers use MUT for content so you can't really compare them to the average player. It seems like everyone on youtube has over 10 million coins and another 10 million in their binder and they are always on top of the market and whatever else is going on. I have 4.5 million coins and i work a full schedule, spent some money here and there but my life doesn't revolve around it and i don't use it for content. Lots of the youtubers use the money from youtube to buy packs and stuff

My point is "kids" don't understand that.  They think it's achievable and thus anything less is unacceptable.  Sorry the old man is just coming out of me at this point. I new it would happen eventually after I had my own children.
