EA's Premade Loadouts in Club/Ranked modes: Discussion/Suggestion
As much as I would like to see these loadouts removed and everyone having to faceoff against each other with their own loadouts as how World of Chel previously was. You know, create a player and your loadout for how you want to play. I've seen so many posts about removing them and zero feedback from EA so I know this won't be the solution we get.
My Suggestion to EA
Keep these loadouts for Quickplay drop-ins, and stop them from being used in all game modes that have ranked play, EA could create extra modes for these loadouts, or at the very least make a setting that players can set to not match against other players with them. In these competitive ranked modes it should be player-made loadouts vs player-made loadouts, obviously in these modes it is a battle for who is best and these modes should only be done this way. Finding what combination of abilities and boosts and what stats you increase or sacrifice to make your loadout for how you want to play or for the position you play in as a team and compete against other players/clubs who have to do the exact same.
With these loadouts in these modes they are not competitive, finals are not best on best, its how unfair a team needs to be to exploit the advantages these loadouts have over normal loadouts and players should not be asked to make loadouts to target the disadvantages and change their entire playstyle in what is supposed to be a competitive ranked game when facing other players using these. Depending on which loadouts are used certain plays get sacrificed because someone has to stay behind so they can defend against players using loadouts that have normally unobtainable speed advantages or trying to avoid players with loadouts that can easily injure them with one hit because they have 99 body checking that you cannot reverse hit just to point out a couple. Yes obviously plays are still changed depending on normal loadouts as well but not to the extent that you have to with these loadouts and you can still maintain your normal playstyle.
As bad as it already is in 3v3 modes, 6v6 modes are worse. 5 players using different premade loadouts there is no way to counter anything as each one has a weakness in their stats but together they all make up for it and you are running on hope and prayers that you can get a 1 goal lead and just defend the rest of the game.
If EA did a proper community vote/poll on these loadouts being created in the first place I don't think we would be here because the majority of the community does not want these.
If you are in the same boat about these loadouts don't just read this post, interact with it and keep making the community heard on this, Give your own feedback below even if you disagree.
