Leveling up and players in packs

So I just reached level 51. Leveling up should provide some sense of excitement, right?

Wrong. Once you hit level 50 the level up rewards stop. Well, I mean I did get 250 training points. Woo hoo. 

Leveling up last season was a lot more exciting. And the year before that it was better still. But now you don't get squat for leveling up except for unlocking coaches and captains you might never use. Big deal. 

We work hard to gain xp and level up. I want to be excited about the rewards. 

And while we are on the subject of exiting things, please put player pulls back in the 4hr overdrive packs and the bonus Madden pack. It's so dull knowing what's in the pack and knowing exactly what's in the pack every single time. 

I think leveling up and the 4 hour overdrive pack should at the minimum be a 2 or 3 gold players with a chance at one of them being an elite  

That will make opening the packs a surprise and an exciting thing again. 

And to be honest  I know ea wants everyone to play overdrive. But I find myself playing it a lot less because I know the overdrive pack is really weak and no fun to open. 

Thank you

  • Addendum : I'm finding it more and more difficult to aquire training points now too because I don't get any players to exchange from the packs.

    Thanks again 

  • I've been thinking about this(both your points) a lot and will eventually make a post about it. I use to love getting to the next level, now I for even consider it when playing because I don't care if I do since we don't get anything for doing it anymore anyway. The more we post and the longer this season goes on shows us truly and to what extent how sad this season is and how much ea has ran this game into the ground, how much ea screws us over time after time, how much we don't matter anymore and more than anything, t their greed. I look back at seasons pasts and the problems we had then and compare them to now, it's such a stretch. Had we known ea would drag it this far we would've been glad to keep those problems if it meant a decent game and Madden mobile as we know. I find it hard to believe that much of these issues we are having couldn't have been solved by now and that we should even be having them in the first place.
  • And one more thing, all of these problems we are having this season could have definitely been avoided by just working on what we had already and mastering that since we liked it and just wanted them to simply fix it anyway. Nobody asked for nor wanted overdrive. We voiced our displeasure for it when they announced it during last season yet her we are. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought this game was for us, the player, fan and consumer? I mean, we are the ones who keep this company afloat and spend the money. If it's not for us then who?
    One more thing. We even asked them about the penalties (pass inference mostly of course) and we couldn't even get that, but they had no problem, once again, forcing something on us that we didn't want nor asked for and they wasn't even sure out worked properly. And I'm still getting tons of network timeouts, players not looking for the ball, teams whostill have gold and even SILVER players performing against me as if they put time into developing their team, shutting me and everything I do down. I feel like this reply has gotten much longer than I intended it to.
  • Sometimes when we start a rant it's hard to stop. I'm considering setting the game aside for a while tbh. I'm burnt out and this impossible promo that is most Feared is just the straw that broke the camels back.
    I neither have the time to grind impossible events, nor the money to stay competitive.
    And it doesn't seem to matter what I do any way. The players I get never seem to play any better than the ones I had. The 85 OBJ I replaced played exactly the same as my new 90 Lockett.
    Every game feels so pre-determined. I pretty much know who's supposed to win a match within the first 3 plays.
    Now I'm ranting... Lol

    I made (quite a few actually) a post about the players with proof of what I was saying and let's just say it's a thing of the past now.
