Re: Open letter to EA regarding Team Builder

yup... we're the unwitting R&D dept for ncaa 2026... hopefully they'll read the riot act after seeing the forums complain, but then they'll look at the income statement and go full steam ahead on a re-boot of this non sense next year, and promote new uniform features like digital ball sweat rendering instead of concrete features that would immerse TB users into their experience... I'm never buying an EA game on release ever again

@KleShreen The biggest case for a class action lawsuit is them hiding that you need to pay for a subscription service to use the Teambuilder teams in a dynasty.  At first they advertised offline dynasty - people preordered the game. Then they switched to saying private online dynasty with no mention you had to pay - people preordered the game.  Then they didn't require a subscription to playing a private online dynasty during early access - people who bought the game early posted about it, so a private online dynasty didn't seem like a big deal, so people bought the game.  There was a big uproar when suddenly you had to pay to play, EA didn't acknowledge it in their list of issues and didn't update their marketing even with fine print saying you had to pay, and people continue to buy.  I've never been an EA-basher, even with all of the bugs (even though the Teambuilder site is terrible, even for them, especially considering that it worked great back in '14 - I'm guessing trying to make a common build for Madden is what busted it), but this is definitely misleading at the very best and intentionally against lawful business practices at the worst.
