    I played DD since may bought madden 22 and played it for a month. Played the show today for the first time in a month and WOW! It is insane how much better the show is in ever aspect compared to madden. From DD to gameplay graphics content etc etc etc. I can go on and on but this game and team are so much better then ea and madden it isn't even funny. Im not a fan boy or anything I play all sports games but no one does it better then SDS just being real! Anyways glad to be back going to get grinding again. 😀

    Yeah, EA has a host of problems.

    My biggest beef with them? Overworking BioWare and making them crunch to the point where a lot of their creative talents have left. And the result? Andromeda and Anthem. 🤮

    Playing mut is sad compared to DD. It is so focused on paying to get players as opposed to the show where literally every card is free if you work for it. I really could go on and on but if you complain about the show or sds just go play madden or an ea sports game and the difference in literally everything is comical. Needles to say my copy of madden 22 for ps5 is up for sale lol done playing that garbage game. Not hating just being honest.

    This is the first year I didn't buy Madden since the early 90s. Last year's was so bad that I said never again. MUT is just so greedy and it's hard to deal with them essentially giving nothing to grinders other than solo battles which didn't even work for weeks at last year's launch.

    Eff EA and specifically Madden lol

    FYI I haven't played/boughten madden since madden 14 only reason I did was to give it another shot as this being the first year it was truly focused on next gen and it is a massive flop. Played the show since launch then trying to get into madden 22 was a massive step backwards. But im back! LOL and boy do I have a TON of content to grind now. Thank you SDS! 😃

    Mut lost me when they put a huge emphasis on training points. You have like 4 or 5 different currencies in Madden. It’s frustrating as a player that doesn’t want to roll the dice and spend money on packs

    Crappy thing is, is that it works. Kids still spend 100s of dollars on packs. [censored] my brother in law stole his mother’s CC to buy packs. Haven’t touched madden since 18.

    Shoot even 2k gives you some sweet free cards and bunch of offline content to grind

    Same here. I have owned every single Madden ever released, except this year. M21 was just by breaking point.

    I know through locker room codes and staying up on content you can get some good free stuff in 2k. But if you think you’re grinding in the show, go play 2k, it’s a GRIND. I would like 2k more if their market didn’t absolutely suck.

    Oh trust me I stopped trying to get Wall after a bit but I love those domination games. Yea with new cards coming out every 3 days and multiple duplicates of players the market is so f volatile. Cards lose value within days

    I did happen to get every vault reward and not have to play 600 games. ‘Dishwasher’ was the ish

    If you play madden and don’t like MUT, which in my opinion is the only mode that works then you are SOL. I was in a pretty big online franchise with a lot of my buddies since madden 16 and ever year after 16 the mode got worse and worse. The online franchise is on hiatus as of this year and may never comeback

    This year I tried strictly mut because of how much I like DD. So being that that is maddens equivalent to dd it is what I played. The content is lame and very little of it and it is clear as day it is designed for you to spend insane amounts of money to buy packs to get players. When you get free players they are ncat (no sell and not collectable). It really is lame and especially if you like offline play. Online mut is horrible guys run the exact same 3 or 4 plays on D o offence it is not sim football at all! Even the "pros" if you watch them play they run out of one formation exclusively because it is the meta. Sorry I like sim sports games not meta trash.

    Also forgot to mention SDS did an amazing job with paralleling players. Just wish when you P5 someone you got a collection or reward or something or a reason to continue to use the card. Madden is hilarious to parallel a card (power up in there lingo). you have to spend INSANE amounts of coins (stubs) and you go up a wopping +1. It is not worth it at all as the cost does not make sense. Just another one of the million things SDS does better.

    Uggggh. I dreaded having to put chemistries on and [censored] for flipping +1. So tedious. Hope SDS never does anything like that

    That's why Im saying im no fan boy but after playing the show then tying to give madden another chance it is night and day in every aspect. Madden is awful compared to the show. I agree hope SDS never goes this route. And I doubt they will. They listen and care about there community not like EA.

    I tried all of the sports games' card collection modes and DD is far better in creativity, card collecting, and grinding. MUT does not have a deep create a team, MyTeam, you would need a certain amount of cards to unlock custom logos and uniforms. Cards are not repetitive in DD, MUT and 2K would up to 10 cards of the same person. The rarely of DD cards are simple, Diamond, Gold, Silver, bronze, and common. 2K has so many different rarities,

    "Hey I got a diamond Lebron James" "Diamond Lebron James? He's bad to compare this 99 SuperDunk Space Jam Lebron James" "Wow, how do I got" "You need to give me money so I give you a pack that may or may not have him" "Ok" gives money "Aw I didnt get him" "Well GIVE ME MORE MONEY and maybe this pack could" Rinse and Repeat

    SDS has a limit of how you buy a headliner pack, its telling you know your limits, its a gamble but they are not forcing you to buy more packs. Getting diamonds are so easy in this and you don't have to pay a single dime. I have four full diamond squads without duplicates of the same person. The grinding in DD is so rewarding, there are so many programs to grind to get this certain card or certain card pack,

    Sports leagues really need to look into SDS as an option to make their games. Ryan Moody has compared Madden to The Show and said the show has many things that Madden is missing. But sadly we may see another SDS sport franchise
