Why does ea think it is okay to force players to spend money

Question

I have done the maths on this and it's ridiculous in order for players to enjoy the content in ultimate team it requires you to spend money eafc24 has been out for 14 days officially and if you win every single game you play well you make around 750 coins a match 1 match is about 12 mins a day has 24 hours so 24*60 is 1440/12 is 120 so in 1 full day playing non stop you would make 90000 x 14 1,260,000 so the normal player if they played every single moment since eafc release would make 1,260,000 + rewards so for the average player without spending any money would be around 1.5 mil - 3 mil but you'd need to build your team and ea release sbc costing about 800k ea only care about the players spending thousands on the game they don't care about the majority of there player base and they aren't even trying to balance the game instead they are leaning towards the opposite and all this is not even mentioning there broken lootboxes/gambling mechanics which is beyond gambling cause at least when you gamble you can actually get something worth the money you've spent nearly 300k for a pack the has less than a 10% chance of packing a promotional card so if you haven't spent any money on the game you cannot afford to actually enjoy these promotions and they are strictly for the players who are willing to spend thousands on the game this will probably be deleted so I'm copying this and posting it everywhere I can&nbsp;

@QuitYourCrying You don't need to spend to enjoy the game. I am on an RTG -- have always done so since FUT became a thing.

The question you need to ask yourself is, how seriously do you take this game? Are you looking to compete as a pro? Are you just playing this casually or semi-casually whenever you get the chance?

I've accepted I won't be able to "catch em all" and some players I will never get a chance to play with them unless they're a loan. I've accepted I am not good enough to compete with the pros and or near pro level and just play the game under my own means.

My brother a couple of FIFA's ago decided to take it seriously and traded his way up to millions of coins from spending no money on packs. Just remember, if you don't have the monetary means to open packs, you can still buy really expensive players by learning how to trade.

I think trading feels like a full-time job and I am ok with not doing it. I am ok with not having Pele like 90% of us. But, if you really want Pele, you need to put in the work to be able to have the coins for it. This game is not just play and get coins / rewards and you can buy all. It's a lot more complex than that but it's not impossible to do -- if that's what you want to do.

I am an RTG player and don't want to trade. What I pack from objectives is what I play with.

Hope I've helped you in some way <3

I fully get your point but surely the game should be based around fair play for all not having people spending thousands for an advantage and ea actually developing the game to the needs of those players and not the needs of the average player is ridiculous not only that the amount those sbcs cost at this point of the game is ea literally incetivinsing to buy points to spend on the broken pack system and trading is broken as there is coin sellers etc so the market is broken and ea punishes people who actually use coin sellers but allows there content creators to promote coin sellers so punish the average player not the ones providing the service ea doesn't care about the average player it's been proven year after year and 1 thing I found funny is they claim they raised the prices of fifa points to be in line with inflation how is a virtual currency effected by real world economy they are just milking there players for money and they do nothing to help average players who can't spend every moment on the game but the volta cosmetics are just that only cosmetics why isn't that the case with ultimate team&nbsp;&nbsp;

@QuitYourCrying their sole purpose is to make money. They dont give a * about the quality of the game. It hasn’t changed since 2020 basically. They earn the most money on microtransactions. They dont even try anymore: they make the same players in different cards, so they dont have to spend time on making new more exciting players.

EA has followed the world trends. Treat your target group like *. Have them spend their money. Promise them the game will be better. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
