Community Manager100%. Could not agree more.
Some venting/rage is misplaced, but some is born of a legitimate and mounting frustration with EA’s perceived inaction/unresponsiveness. Honest and frank two-way communication is the best way to maintain trust and nurture good faith with the user community, both ensuring the product delivers value to customers and profits to EA.
That’s why I take the devil’s advocate role here. I’ll call out the issues as they happen, keeping emotion and bias out of it as much as possible. But I’ll also push back when posts are just ranting without offering anything constructive. Right now, the issues have made the game feel like it’s in bare-minimum auto-play mode just to slowly farm shards for 113s. Beyond that, it’s frustrating and not enjoyable in any meaningful way. PVP is unplayable, and PVE is barely playable.
As for Manager Mode, I only let it run so our LVL league gets the activity points. Otherwise, I wouldn’t bother launching it. In my opinion, it’s a pointless mode, and EA should have been putting the manhours to work on the core issues instead, but here we are, so now it's just launch MM, leave it alone, it'll reach the championship sooner or later, regardless of what tactics you use for some free resources, lol.
