Boycott MADDEN 26/27
To all the PC players out there who haven’t been able to play online game modes for almost a month now - I highly recommend we collectively don’t purchase Madden 27. On top of that, go completely free to play on MUT.
I think it’s insane that for one, we can’t create a ticket to get individual support with a tech and direct-personalized compensation for our losses. We’re just directed to forums for a “quick fix - on field visuals” that literally only helps offline play.
Two, can’t request a refund if you’ve owned the game longer than a day. Can’t request refunds on purchases made within the time frame of this glitch - I would not have bought packs if I knew I couldn’t even play the game.
Three, they mark the discussions as “solved” to save face. Little to no updates for us regarding the matter - just “solved” for the sake of acknowledgment paired with a weak tweet regarding the matter.
Still allow us to buy packs and waste our money on players who will seemingly be out of META by the time the issue is resolved - and with no warning that the game is unplayable.
Miss out on an entire season of Ranked, losing out on rewards that impact our teams moving forward. Not to mention missing out on, what usually is, one of the best promos of the year.
I’ve played and loved madden for years, but this is literally abysmal. Disgusting. Prolonged without reason. Could they not have prioritized us by rolling the update back to when it was playable? Yes they could have.
So long Madden, it’s been horrid knowing you.
I think the only way they save themselves is by way of heavy compensation. All I’m saying is it better be good…
And in case any of you were wondering, there are some PC players that are completely unaffected by the glitch. Knowing this, I wouldn’t expect anything from EA.
EA, if you read this and want to make it right - do get ahold of me. I’d love to chat…
Peace & Love folks, go Steelers
