Cup Chase changes
First of all, finally having exclusive player rewards as an offline player is amazing, but the way it’s implemented is an absolute disaster.
Why is EA forcing us to play 88 of the 110 required games on Rookie, Semi, Pro, and All-Star difficulty levels? Anything other than Superstar is a complete waste of time.
The rewards in Cup Chase are already a disappointment, and now, with having to play on these low difficulty levels, there are even fewer rewards.
On top of that, the biggest problem isn’t the grind or winning, it’s hoping the servers don’t crash and that there aren’t any freezes that ruin your undefeated run and force you to restart it.
EA replaced the undefeated rewards in NHL 26 for exactly these reasons. So why bring them back now?
I’ve already had one freeze on my second run.
Like I said, great idea, but the execution isn’t worth the effort to unlock Fiala … unless you’re a die-hard Kings/Fiala fan.
I hope there will be some changes in Season 3, maybe even a choice pack instead of just one player.
