Re: EA Accessibility Policy and 3 click play

And then taking it one step further, once 3 click players have finished the career mode and the challenges, they are left with very few opportunities to earn the in game coins, because after you exhaust the payouts for career etc, you can no longer earn more than a couple of thousand a week from the daily and weekly quests. 

Those earnings being further reduced if they throw in the daily tournament requirement, when the arcade 4 hole variant isn't on the free entry... 

The situation honestly feels like those of us who can't use a game controller have been hung out to dry by the devs. 

"EAbleism, it's in the game." 


I don't every remember getting coins for career play. Unless you mean completing challenges.

I don't disagree with you that EA has left those not using the stick on the controller out in the cold. However... I think we also have to consider that EA had never designed this game for anything but for controller joystick input. That the 3-click option was added as an afterthought.

I know it is not a popular thought, but it is what it is. I'm hoping that they will expand features for the 3-click players to include them in all facets of the game; but I'm not hopeful.

    @ELF014  Yeah, I'm leaning into that "it is what it is" concept more and more as time goes on. 

     

    Overall, I think I'm moving further and further into the 'expectations managed' kind of mindset with every new patch, after seeing them address either things that nobody asked for, or things that make no great difference overall, and I'm allowing that to set the stage. 

    Watching what they do versus what they said they were going to do... 

     

    I mentioned the coins in career mode, because there are the points for tournament wins etc.  

     

    The quests give great rewards as do the challenges, but once they are gone and as EA keep adding more things to buy there's going to be a very large wealth gap developing for the neglected players.

    @Noya_WesaQuest was what I meant.

    But I agree with you about the direction about EA's patches. It seems they take very little advice from the community, and it is more about a roadmap that they have already predetermined. And if it is something on their roadmap it may get pushed up on the schedule.

    But you are right, they have limited the 3-clickers ability to earn VC. But I have stopped playing the game basically 4 weeks ago... and there is nothing I need anymore to play the game.
