AP and Ability Updates
Next, T.J. went over some updates that have been made to the AP and Ability system for MUT 24. Here's what we can expect to see:
- More updates to the AP total throughout the year
- AP updates will be communicated in advance to give players time to prepare
- Each side of the ball will start with 6 AP to open the M24 season
- Slower rollout of ability discounts and fewer 0 AP abilities
- AP costs will be consistent across all archetypes for a position group, while rating thresholds for unlocking abilities can still be different for archetypes
- Abilities have been tuned for better game balance, including the following:
- Reduced velocity on pass-leading abilities
- Lower frequency of late knockouts with KO abilities
- Tuning to WR elite abilities to ensure the catching portion only works vs. single coverage
