Couldn’t agree more, especially about the mechanics. EA has invested far too much time and energy in new cards at the expense of making the actual matchplay consistently enjoyable. I like collecting player cards, but the whole point of the game is to be able to play FUN matches using those players. Outdated and inconsistent game mechanics devalue every aspect of the game and are the main reason I am F2P. It simply makes no sense to me to sink money into cards if I can’t consistently enjoy using them in fair, competitive matches. (It also makes no sense to sink my money into cards if them if they are almost immediately devalued).
If EA were to address these issues Inwould almost certainly be willing to spend $$$ on this game (as I have for years on the console version). But so long as the mechanics remain poor to (at best) mediocre the value proposition just isn’t good enough to part me from my hard-earned money..
