Has SDS gone full Madden mode

I'm willing to bet they'll be dumping Topps now cards every week also. I was willing to buy this year's game because of they'll content path they went last year. Now I've got shifty online gameplay AND bad content now? Pft good luck getting me back next year SDS. I bet this is the nail in the coffin for a lot of people.

I'm curious how many people that dislike the new system also complains about God squads at the beginning of last year. I'm not saying it's everyone, there are some legit gripes but from most of what I've seen whether executed correctly or not they are trying to listen to the community.
I think the complaint last year was not that the team Affinity cards were to easy to get, it was that they were to strong. The ta3 csrds were better than almost all of the live series collection rewards except chipper. I honestly could care less about how many of the boss cards you can unlock through the program. I'm more bummed about all the packs we aren't getting from team affinity this year.
Last year each division would give you like 40 team affinity packs and 7 blah pack. That's alot of content missing. Wouldn't you agree?
Definitely a bummer not getting those packs but I think it was too easy for everyone to have millions of stubs last year. They definitely overcompensated a bit and future features programs will be better. I'm not ready to tear them apart after seeing the very first features program during early access
I'm not willing to tear them apart for this either. People losing tens of thousands of stubs because of the servers on day 1 and still no response from them is a bigger issue to me.
Also don't forget man, last year yes it was easy to make stubs, but the bug collections cost millions of stubs to complete. Remember mookie?
I do, and with how they handed out stubs and packs I had him right away. Never made WS or went 12-0 either

I have a feeling we will see additional programs at official launch and when the bears ball season starts. Patience.

So what’d we pay for early access for? To look at the menus?

They did cut back but Madden still shouldn't even be in the same sentence as The Show.
idk the fact that they haven't updated anything besides minor gameplay changes and horrible commentary feels very EA to me

Feels like they spent more time removing content than the did adding. That's madden.

Can't fault them for going this route. I got every player I wanted, completed every collection, without spending an extra dollar. Had to expect this. Their stub sales couldn't have been that good, last cycle.

To have early access and a head start on the base game.
To get bonus packs.
To not have to spend 4 more days avoiding logging into ‘21.

The head start would imply there is something to get a head start on..

Something like a featured program?

It is impossible to be on the same level as Madden cause no company cares as little about their fans as EA

I meant something one could obtain cards, that they want, from in a reasonable amount of time. Like a team affinity program

Also quicksell values were cut big time. I thought they would do this. last year was the year to get all the new Xbox players addicted to the content. Now they can pull the reigns back and push for more stub sales.
The quicksell value change could end up being for the better imo

Way too early to say that, but yesterday's stream definitely gave a bad impression that they're heading down that road. Bad enough that I decided not to order. I may pick it up a few months down the road when it's on sale if I still have the itch.
The worst decision IMO was making the first six FOTF cards you can obtain no choice/no sell. I don't want to grind a program and end up with a card that I have no interest in.
Madden went this route this year, where cards you earn random items that are NCAT. Not auctionable, not tradeable, and you cant even put them in sets. Most rewards you get are random just like those first 6 FOTF packs. One of the worst things Madden did and now EA is copying. Hopefully SDS sees how bad this is and changes it for the next featured program. I always brag on how SDS is so much better than EA but this small change is concerning and makes me worried about the direction SDS is headed.

I'll bet yall a million stubs monthly awards won't be free anymore either.

Is it too late to get a refund????

Jeez, I'll beat SDS up when they made legit [censored] ups but all I'm seeing is a bunch of crybabies making assumptions after seeing the content in EARLY ACCESS. If they don't drop other programs and the future features programs look like this go ahead and panic but considering their track record with content I'm not super worried at the moment.
