What's the point of us spending money to buy packs, players and everything else to build our teams if it's not going to matter and make a difference? Like @rpluumy said "in real life this is called match fixing".
No matter how you look at it or cut it, it's wrong and worse because they didn't at least let us know because if they had just came out and said it, I wouldn't even be upset and would just go about things a little differently to adjust. You can't sell people something advertising it one way and we buy it solely because of that particular reason (ratings in this case) and then turn around and "adjust" the game and the players we paid for. That's like you buying a car because it has a Mercedes body but the seller doesn't tell you it's actually a Honda engine, transmission and interior.

Would be nice if EA gave a proper answer here. But I doubt they will ever going to respond to this post

I'm certainly interested in hearing a response.
Because if what Mark is saying is true the EA is perpetrating fraud plain and simple.
If I purchase a player who's attributes are clearly listed on the player card and the game is programmed to adjust those attributes during gameplay then that is fraud. I'm not getting what I paid for because the player is not always performing to the level he is advertised to perform.
By definition that is fraud.
- 7 years agoThat is a good analogy @Humdinger504
It's exactly like buying a race car with 1200 horsepower, but if you have raced really good for 5 races, or if you are racing guys with only 500 horsepower, then we are going to take away half of the horsepower that you paid for.
WHY?? I PAID FOT THE EXTRA HORSEPOWER.
Does that make any sence? I go off the rails sometimes.- 7 years agoIf I don't hear a very good explanation on this, this might be it for me. I can't play a game if I know that every match is determined by an algorithm instead of my game play and my players.
I really feel duped out of the hundreds of dollars I've spent this year.
