Calm down

I will be the first to admit that I am not of fan of the season awards drop and I already mentioned I didn't like the captains being hard to obtain but this game is still very much a great game. You can still earn plenty of good cards for free and hiding people behind packs only hurts people who want to have every card, you can still earn enough to get plenty of cards this year just maybe not every single one upon release. Also does no one remember that monthly awards used to be in packs? It was a huge part of the game that they were hard to get. I like that it adds diversity to rosters that not every card is easy to get right away

When were Topps now cards last in packs?
How many Topps now cards were we getting per week compared to what we got for the first drop?Calm down was fair to say when we get no Seoul Series program.
When there was the fresh start pack without a program I was still calm
When season launched without a big problem I calmed down quickly, because Easter was fun and enough to tide over to what should have been a big drop today
Then today's drop was less than we got on a weekly basis last year, when we needed moreAnd there is no DD content on the calendar until next Friday
So I think its no longer the time to be saying calm down

No. [censored] you.

@Teak2112 Topps now program is relatively newer and it usually just full of people that are for filling out theme teams and collections. As for when monthly awards were in packs I've been playing since the show 15 so I don't remember but it doesn't seem that long ago. I think part of the issue is that people forget how hard it was to get the best cards just a couple years ago. It's more fun that we can all get them easier nowadays but until this year they've been making a lot of progress to help everyone get the cards they want. I'm gonna give them some benefit of the doubt a little longer. I do hate the lack of xp options among some other things but the game is still fun to play generally speaking

I would say its that a large chunk of the playerbase just wants to jump right into online with a great team and another, also large chunk of the playerbase wants things to take effort to earn. It puts SDS in a bad spot to try to appeal to both. Seems this year they didnt even bother with grinders.
But I dont think either side wanted more choice packs than programs

Choice packs in programs is a happy medium

Good thread … I get, the missing packs to grind are bad. They should change that.
But … I do not get the outrage over this program. You can complete the program via a few offline-stuff (or even events/ranked). You wanted some grind, you get it … I played a few mini season games and completed some of them pretty fast -
Earning more packs is definitely a good idea and I don't think anyone would outright defend the content this year, it is just flat out worse than last year but I'm glad there's at least some other people that trust sds. I stopped playing madden recently because it was flat out impossible to keep up with any of the cards. Let's try to remember that we no longer have immortals lol or the year they raised the attribute cap to 125 and the gameplay was broken the entire year lol
