    Every program, conquest map, ect is the same. Whenever you hit a stub reward it’s always some ridiculous low amount like 25, 100, 250 stubs. These are pointless. In Madden they are much more generous with coins. Usually 5k for the daily rewards and then 25k, 50k in reward paths. That’s a fair amount that can actually help you accumulate enough to upgrade your squad. I don’t know why SDS is so cheap with the stubs but honestly if they’re going to be like that then just replace the low amount of stubs with a pack. The current amounts do nothing for anyone.

    I couldn't agree more. In years past by this time I've had much much more even after completing collections and other things.

    How about the Millionaire Packs that give you a hundred stubs..... Oh boy! I can buy a couple of commons!! Seriously, just a kick in the nuts would be better than that.

    It’s so easy to make millions of stubs just by playing online and mini seasons. TA part 1 and 2 are an easy 150-250k profit each

    Don't give them any ideas. Seriously, with how badly they've neutered the in game rewards in terms of stubs and XP...it doesn't feel very rewarding at all.

    TA pays next to nothing

    LS is a joke...I think now for collecting 40 cards it's a combined payout of 1300 stubs per team. It used to be something like 500, 1000, 1500, 2500 and now it's 200, 200, 400, 500.

    Yep, they either have a very skewed sense of the value of standard packs or stubs. Or they are trying to make players buy stubs. I’m going with a little of the former and a lot of the later. Guessing the person or persons that determined the rewards given out doesn’t even play the game.

    @TripleH-4481 Rumor has it that they hired a "Game Economy Manager" whose job description is basically 'increase monetization'.

    So, SDS is just trying to mirror inflation in real life. And also like in real life, there are shills here that will shout about how great the economy is. The Tyler fool is like the economist in the NYT who keeps saying how great things are while we all now they suck.

    @IrishFist412 Be careful, I made a post yesterday wondering why we get 1,000 stubs for reaching new divisons in ranked and some SDS employees criticized me on their burner accounts 🙂

    Totally agree it's no where near 2k levels. However could be better especially. If they added milestone rewards.

    I like that they are stingy with stubs. I didn't at first, however in doing so it has kept the cost of most cards down. I can buy one or two of the high profile guys and sell them back when I play at night, and if I like one I can pick them up when their price drops a little bit and still be making enough stubs from playing to keep the cycle going. If they gave out Stubbs more freely prices would be higher on so many more cards and I would really lose interest in the game.

    @chucky97___ Correct…But when I played I would say I earned 50k per day just playing the game. Plus you can earn 5k every game you win in Seasons. My point is you can really stack coins in Madden. So while the cards may be more expensive on the auction house, It’s so much easier to earn coins than in DD.
