Time for a language lesson for EA...

ULTIMATE(as in hockey ultimate team) is defined by Webster's dictionary as "the best or most extreme of its kind". Google adds... "the last or most extreme of its kind/to the furthest degree." There is NOTHING ultimate about the teams I have been capable of putting on the ice since season 1. I am not a pay to play gamer, so the fact that I grind all year long only to be told I can't use my best players is infuriating to say the least. It's like building a custom Ferrari and being told you still have to drive the family Corolla. This is unquestionably the worst hockey game EA has ever made. Last year was bad, but this year takes the cake. The only part of this game that is a success is the graphics. Every other department left tons of room for improvement. I can't believe I have wasted any of my time or money(to purchase the game) on this. I want a refund.

    That's exactly what I'm talking about every new season my overall rating drops 4 to 8 levels all the work I've done to aquire players by grinding through the challenges have no significance in the new season and while I'm ranting bound players I have pages and pages of bs players that I can do nothing with every that just pile up clutter and distract

    It's all about getting us to pay to play. How about the player controls going to the fish when there's objectives involved? As soon as objectives are completed, those players go back to normal behavior. When objectives are still unfinished, a 97 OVR can't skate with a 90, can't find an open spot on the ice(regularly skate towards the defender), and can't pass a puck straight to save their lives. I've got the 97 hedman as my starting LD and he abandons the offensive zone when I win a faceoff in the o zone. Id bench him for the rest of the game if I was his coach and he did that once. The game is a joke. EA might as well send people to our houses to play for us, because we actually have so little control over what takes place. Don't even get me started on goalies(I played goalie my entire life).
