Strangling casual players
Hey there, So this is my first post ever here on the forums, and I am most likely going to set myself up for a "skill issue"-comment, if any comment at all. Although, I gotta say that several of t...

The issue with only having 12 squad battle matches (that give rewards) though, is that you have next to no room for mistakes, if you want to reach the better rewards. This means that most casual players need to pull out their best teams, instead of having the room to test out different styles, or use the squad battles to complete various objectives.
@thelaebyCasual players don’t have time to play 40 wl 40 squad battles 40 rivals and do sbcs and trade all day. Being able to play only 12 matches gives casuals time to compete.
Forgot 40 friendlies too. At least after the 12 you can keep playing if you have time. You no longer have to play 40. It’s nice ea finally made a change for casuals.
@RadioShaqs I think you're missing my point, with the lack of opportunity to complete objectives and it being a stressfest etc.
But at least we can agree in regards to 15 rivals wins being too much (that's if you win every game), compared to the 7 wins last year! 😞
- @thelaeby That’s what I am saying less is more casual friendly. You can always play past the 12 for objectives.
When people saying they want 40 games of every mode for casuals doesn’t make sense to me who got time to play 160 games a week. Surely not casuals.
All the modes should be 12.Most people are not saying "they want 40 games in every mode". What people are saying, especially the casual players, is that they want more Squad Battles and less Rivals wins for rewards. For example, EA could've said 20 Squad Battles per week and 10 Rivals wins. But it went more extreme, with 12 Squad Battles, 15 Rivals wins. I'm not considering weekend league because EA has said that Champs is only for the best players, which will not include most casual players. Casual players, by nature, won't be trading all day long and doing every SBC available. EA just seems to have gone out of its way to alienate the majority of its customers, which is a very odd business strategy!
