Way Too Early + Way Too Subjective thoughts on M25

* Hate to mention this one, in fear of jinxing the days and weeks ahead, but game seems more reliable (compared to past two years where Field Pass & Competitive Pass were dumpster fires and took weeks+ to squash all the bugs).

* I'm missing the MUT in between quarters game summary. I really like to be able to see that I have 200 yards rushing and 350 yards passing as the third quarter transitioned to the fourth quarter. It was helpful on some o f the stat heavy objectives that the varous Field Passes assigned. I sat there waiting and just saw highlights package between quarters. Miss it.

* I'm also missing seeing the various currencies listed at the top of the MUT area. I want to know if I have any gold left so I can go looking in the auction house for a quick fix player to plug a hole in my lineup. I saw the currencies intermittently listed from within the Store but that's buried too deep. Put the info back at the top of the MUT screen --  not just currency, seeing your OVR score was nice, too.

* Mixed feeling about the Solo Battles changes. With limited time to play and 29 games to finish before Friday reset, that's a daunting task.(mainly related to it being launch + early access + first week of Filed Pass. The Solo bonus points also were either bugged or (feature) not adding after I got a level, they're working again today, so I'm guessing it's a "feature" -- you can only earn so many Solo Battle levels + points during a day until 9:30AM CST reset. Well, I have a few hours left and 7 or 8 more solo battles to get in before Friday rest, sigh.

  • @Willysee999 Another quick subjective observation...

    * Music selection featured some heavier, rock adjacent songs (Holy Cow, Andrew WK?!?! Queens of the Stone Age?!? Lenny Kravitz?!?) I usually disable all but one or two of the Hip Hop heavy play list because I only like old school Hip Hop from the 90s, so it was nice to be able to have the handful of rock adjacent songs to plug into the playlist.
  • @Willysee999 Another thing I'm missing (it's in there but very fleeting)...

    * I like to see the stats of the QB and HB/FB in between plays. I _sometimes_ see a fleeting glimpse of a stat line crammed into the HUD of the game but I'm a slow reader, and by the time I realize it's on the scoreboard, it disappears and I miss the update. Skill player stats seemed more prevalent in past Madden releases, maybe bring some of those stat chyrons to the fore front so challenge players can get an idea of what they're skill players are doing to plan accordingly.
