Re: Squad Battles and FC 25 in general
@NickDaQuick12198 You can still play past the 12 games you just don’t get points. Not really sure what the downside is you get better rewards for less games.

The reason to play the full 40 games was for the rewards. I could play at my level and still get decent rewards. Now going past has no point besides the paltry 500 coins for playing a game. Truly a shill answer man, like it takes 5 minutes of logical thinking to see how stupid this move is and you're really going to defend it?
- @NickDaQuick12198 You get better rewards for only 12 instead of wasting your time with having to play 40.
I don’t see how that’s logical? Unless you liked being able to play 40 games at say beginner and got above people who could only play say 12 games but played on ultimate? If that’s what you are saying that’s why it needs to be 12.
It’s supposed to be everyone plays an equal amount and whoever gains the most skill points wins not who can play more.
Surely I am misunderstanding you though. Because I don’t get it. - @RadioShaqs That's funny, because your fellow shill claimed it was an average and it "didn't matter how many you played".
Now you're claiming we "inferior players" who "aren't meant for this game" (the latter your fellow employee claimed) are only complaining because we can't get above better players who can only play for five minutes?
You two need to get your story straight on how you are defending this. - @sniperfox29 I don’t know what your talking about. My post is my opinion not someone else’s. I don’t work for ea.
I never said if you are not good you are not meant for this game. But if you are playing on beginner you shouldn’t get rewarded more than someone else better.
If you don’t like the structure that’s one thing but to say becasue you can play 800 games a week you should be rewarded more than a pro who can put in less games but more skill points per games doesn’t make sense.
Your argument is actually why ea needs to lower the amount. It’s no different than having 40 wl games. You shouldn’t get better rewards than a pro who can’t dedicate time over skill. At least a reasonable amount of time I mean nobody is asking for 10 minutes. ive always played squad battles over the years......
it seems they are trying to please the tik tok generation....(that dont want to have to sit playing large number of games)
what im now finding that each and every year i can achieve elite 1.......never ever managed to get to top200.
over 40 or 32 games you have the ability to play poor and loose points but gain them in other games.
only playing 12...or 14 is making it that i cant make a mistake or have a bad game and we all know the ai in squad battles are crazy at times and play like a team of icons even though its a 76 rated team banging top bins shots from 30 yards in a 180` spin.
i gained elite 1 last week by the skin of my teeth.....this week im near 2000 points down so i presume i might make elite 2
with a lot more ppl now gunna play squad battles due to decent rewards and low amount of games the total needed for elite 1 will always be high....
leaving my self wide open to `skill issue`
On the plus side they doubles the games needed for rivals. Personally I think it’s going to be a hassle to play more. You guys might enjoy it more now so could always play it after your squad battles games.
I prefer to have less games actually, I often would end up playing a marathon on saturday night to catch up. I will never make 45 point in Rivals though, I have huge difficulties this year, I'm losing 4 games out of 5, last year I was stable between Div 1 and Elite. The game is becoming more and more physical and I play very very light (no tackles basically) and with no pressing. I don't think I'll be able to get good results this year with my style.
I agree with you a hundred percent!!! I've always enjoyed playing just squad battles in any of the fifa games and til now. 12 games???!!! Its also nice playing squad battles for more games to work/earn those objectives. But now...... I don't care to play other game modes, especially when its with other online players. I don't understand the move. If you want to shorten the games, do so, but all the way down to 12?! And it's always been the case that you can go beyond the initial games, but what's the point when you don't earn points, just coins. Your playing to earn rewards for packs and a chunk of coins at once.
I'm actually going to be playing the game less now.
Please EA 🙏, up the games. Make them double, up to 24. 12 is way too short.
Well mate. All the sweats and bots are grabbing top 200 and as well as the elites, the most people can get without sweating sbs is gold one. If it was 36 games, then it would be easier to get elite
I agree 100% as well. I have been playing FIFA the last 20 years and have always enjoyed playing squad battles.
I thought it was a good idea to drop from 40 to 32 and make the games shorter but 12 games is crazy.
If I had know this was going to be the case I would not have bought FC 25.
I prefer squaddies compared to Rivals and I use it to get objectives and hone my skills.
Please EA at least make it 24 games!!
- @RadioShaqs It's funny, read twitter and everyone is complaining about how many rivals games they have to play.
It's almost as if EA know that's the best way to force players to spend real money on packs, which is why they cut the number of games for squad battles.
No surprise an EA employee like yourself agrees with them, just like that dub fellow, we all know you are paid to ignore complaints and glorify your masters wishes. - @sniperfox29 What are you talking about I’ve already said I dislike more rivals games. I don’t agree with ea. it’s like you don’t even read anything and just assume I always defend ea even though I don’t.
You are the one who keeps complaining you want more games not me. I mean lol. I initially agreed with you. However, with rewards being same for 12, gives me more time to focus on Rush and Rivals (which I'm useless at)
A "pro" is playing the game for a living so would have plenty of time to dedicate to playing.
Secondly someone who is playing more games should definitely be rewarded higher than someone who plays fewer games.
This attitude has led to the got to quit after one game annoyance that happens in friendlies. Where your told that we should be rushing through every objective as fast as possible.
For most people this is a hobby.
Thankfully they lowered the games for rivals and weekend league and didn’t up squad battles. Nobody wants to play 40 games in January of squad battles that you can get the same rewards for 12.
- @RadioShaqs NO YOU CAN'T
It has been established, even by EA supporters, that the rewards for the VAST MAJORITY of squad battle players are now worse than before because everyone who used to get elite 1, 2 or even 3 is now getting gold
EA LIED when they claimed they wanted to make it more meaningful, they LIED when they said rewards would be bettter
And you continue to LIE that 12 SB is a good thing, because its not. - @sniperfox29 Rewards are better. You can play 12 games and get even better rewards than playing 40 last year.
- @sniperfox29 I’ve posted the rewards compared to last year before and they are better. You only have to play 12 games to get them. Why would you want to play 40 games to get the same rewards?
- @RadioShaqs And the vast, vast, vast, vast majority of players are no longer getting the same rewards as last year, they are getting WORSE rewards
Every poster has said this, but YOU continue to LIE and maintain that it is somehow "better"
And as usual, your superiors point this out and you ignore it, like a good little EA stooge
Even Izzy admitted EA LIED about it being better, yet you continue to worship them, I wonder why how much they paid you - @sniperfox29 I think you are confusing skill with rewards. Saying the rewards are not as good because you can’t make the same rank isn’t the same thing. It’s no wonder you say rewards are worse lol.
- @RadioShaqs No, you are confusing your constant lies with reality, and the reality is people aren't happy with the reduced rewards.
But you continue to ignore this to support your superiors, like a good slave does. - @sniperfox29 Why are you so mean and rude on here? Maybe don’t play so much if it makes you this angry.
@RadioShaqsWhy do you feel the need to lie all the time, something multiple people have called you out on as you shovel irrelevant nonsense in defence of your precious overlords?
I have never lied once and have always offered unbiased help to the helpless.
You should learn from your superiors, or leave, because let's be fair, nobody would notice if you did.- @sniperfox29 I feel like leaving with the way you are treating people. It’s not nice.
