RR packs are total garbage! Don't buy!

I bought 15 RR packs. I got:

0 LTDs, 0 99s, 0 97s

Only 4 95s, and 11 93s!

95s are still a loss after the tax is taken. 

93s are a huge loss of over 30k. It's like buying 93s for 51k.

The 80-89s are worthless. No one is buying that crap so only TP. 

EA is garbage. So greedy. You'd think the final promo would have some decent packs, but nope pure garbage. Most packs now can only be bought with cash only. That's bogus. All packs should be able to be bought with coins too. The cost isn't worth it. It's a rip off!

Thanks. I was going to buy a bundle, but I will skip due to your advice.

If you bought with cash you'd probably get better pulls as that's EA. Pay to get anything decent. I only bought with coins so nothing but trash and  a 350k loss

Coin packs are borderline guaranteed an L

I bought all 15 packs each week, and only once did I barely break even. The other weeks were great. Pulled 3 99 champions, and 6 or 7 of the 97's.

Nobody should EVER be purchasing these coin packs, they're absolutely terrible and specifically designed (by EA) to extract value from the community, to keep their sketchy markets "stable" or whatever.  The only reason i've been buying so many coin packs this year is due to the fact that i've lost access to the Auction House, so it is literally this or nothing.  If there's a certain card you want, just go purchase that from the AH.  It is going to be better/faster AND cheaper in 99% of cases.

Sure there's always that lucky schmuck who manages to pull an LTD from a 51k coin pack -- heh, that was actually me this week, my very last (15 of 15) Redzone Royale pack i managed to pull a Jeffery Simmons and boy was i sure surprised.  I somehow managed to beat the odds.  After a thousand+ hours playing this game and countless coin pack offers (since December when i was banned from AH) I can say with absolute confidence that NOBODY.  EVER.  ANYWHERE.  should ever purchase a coin pack under any circumstances.

Only degenerate gamblers such as myself would even consider such a thing.  So you're telling me there's a chance?

Nice pull. Ya F EA. Bs like this is why I haven't played madden in four years and why I probably won't again unless they limit the amount of times a play can be called a game. Nothing but same play spam cheese maggots anymore. 

You'd think just once outta 15 packs I'd get a 97 but nope. I only bought because I was bored and my team is about set. I just wanted to pull a Ltd. 

It's unbelievable that almost all packs are sold for cash only now. On m20 any pack could be bought with cash or coins. The greed is outta control. 

I pulled a GT from a FA pack on my sub. It wasn't even exciting. I played for years and never pulled one before I finally did in m20. I was so excited and hyped. Now too many GTs. 52? Really? Most choices to make a GT are garbage this year too. Only 14 are any good. Now they sell packs for cash selling a GT pull. Wtf. It's watered down and played out. Market is flooded. Way too many 

Top cards don't even play well anymore too. Anyone can beat a god squad with some spam now. In m20 people quit just seeing certain cards. They killed it. Not anymore. They all play like 97s now

I wish you were wrong about anything you've stated here. So sad, but oh so very true. EA's whole "make or break year" simply meant the gloves were off and there was absolutely zero chance they'd do anything beyond recycling the same buggy ass shit and reselling it back to us over and over and over. 

The least amount of effort and by far the most sheer greed I've seen, probably in my entire life. But I'm trying to not allow my grumpy old man shit or the harsh realities of life so anything to potentially sour the fun for my kid. It's worth $80 or even a hundred bucks to enjoy these with my kid.

That's how I continue to justify my bad decisions (such as CFB & M25 pre-order), he's just starting to really dive in and enjoy these games.  And I adore playing virtual GM in MUT. Was trying to retire, but guess I'm at least sticking out another year. Hopefully EA gives up that exclusive licensing with the league in May 2026. 😡

I can get over the greediness as I know how to farm and get around the cockblock EA sets up. What I can't handle is the pee wee football. The same excuses of it can be stopped or stop it if you're any good, or it's just a video game. EA could stop the spam cheese but then the brainless masses would whine and quit. If they can't spam bot wins they'll walk away. The top 100 has 2-3 unique plays per game, so they spam meta blitzes non stop. The MCs is the same. It's been like this since M15. They could just limit the amount of times a person can call a play per game but they don't. That's not Sim football at all it's pee wee football. I just want a real game of football where a guy toast me because his play call had me guessing wrong, not because some game code is broken and spammed. Ya I can beat it but it limits my play calls to only a few calls. No huddle limits me to only 4 plays, why not just give me the full playbook so I can change my formation? Old game had it. 

Why doesn't 2k make a college game? No only EA is allowed for college football. If they did or if Sony made gamebreaker again, theyd destroy EA and then the NFL would cancel EA

Can't trade, limits on how much I can sell a card for, horrible pulls from rewards like 85s and 77s in season 7 reward packs after needing 15,000 rushing yards and 50 TDs etc, and pee wee football only in h2h. What a 🤡 show this game has become

Not lies at all. I am well aware of what I pulled. It's part of how I was able to build both my Rookie Premeires for just under 3 million coins total. Sorry about your bad luck, but that doesn't make me a liar just because you want to act like a butt hurt baby.
