This is…. Ridiculous

Really you guys? After what you tried to pull in CFB… WE NEED to be allowed to turn off wear and tear LIKE RIGHT NOW! I’m not sure who’s giving y’all these ideas on how to change things up. You know what needs changing? The story line, the upgrading features, which I think are pretty dope this year! 

but cut the **bleep**. People love this game mode because it’s a sandbox and you get to do what you want to do with it. IT’S NOT EVEN ONLINE. If you don’t fix this. My last year buying Madden. Y’all have been getting away with WAY too much. It’s sick

    Yeah, that’s exactly why I think Wear and Tear needs more player control.

    It might be manageable at certain positions for a while, but at HB and QB you’re taking contact constantly, so the system can become way more punishing. If you’re eventually forced to rest players just to get that 40% recovery, it starts feeling less like a realistic management feature and more like something you’re fighting against every week.

    I also agree that CPU teams need to be affected by the same system. If our players are slowing down, losing effectiveness, and accumulating wear while CPU players seem to perform at full strength for four quarters, that creates an unfair balance.

    And the buffs/nerfs are another issue. If I’ve built the #1 defense in the league, I don’t want my DBs suddenly standing around leaving receivers completely uncovered just because the game wants to manufacture difficulty.

    Keep Wear and Tear for the people who enjoy it, but give us an option to disable it and make sure the CPU follows the same rules.

    the thing is on my CB and FS even my edge wear and tear is some what manageable for a few weeks then its all rest for the 40% recovery cause later weeks you end up with more but on the HB and QB your constantly hit and stuff im surprised your guy doesnt die before the 4th qtr from all the wear and tear and yeaa you should be able to shut it off as it get annoying after a bit , also i have a feeling that cpu team never take wear and tear as they never slow down all 4 Qtrs,  And they need to remove the buffs to the other team or the nerf to might i could be on the number one d in the league and my DBs are all standing around leave people wide open

    I can understand the frustration here. For an offline mode that’s supposed to be a sandbox, I think players should have as much control over the experience as possible.

    Wear and Tear can be a cool system for people who want the added realism, but there really should be an option to disable it completely. Giving players that choice wouldn’t take anything away from those who enjoy the feature.

    That’s especially important in an offline mode where everyone should be able to customize the experience to their own preference. More options and sliders are almost always better than forcing one specific style of gameplay on everyone.

    Hopefully this is something they can add in an update, because an on/off toggle seems like a reasonable request.
