SOTW is late yet again. On top of being slow with content they release the legend training packs that will only give 84 OVR cards. They need a makeright here, I spent all of my saved up Training on these thinking i could get an LTD. I'm a believer in the game but I'm starting to doubt the team at EA for giving us enough free rewards, content, and communication. I knew the communication would lack because its EA but the least they can do is to give the player base more incentives to keep playing. All BND free packs, so anyone that you pull you can't sell on the market. I get not every pack needs to not be BND but you should include a few packs in the field pass that aren't BND. Long story short, I feel like we are all being cheated out of a great game for no good reason other than EA trying to get everyone to spend $$$ on packs, and if they want to do that give us more content at least.
Also was on the Twitch channel this AM and got banned from chat for asking when the SOTW drop is coming...

Wow, such a salty company

What is going on at EA? They need to hire some people who will keep up its not hard to program a couple challenges a week and drop some players in packs. We're asking for the bare minimum and all they do is put 1 coin packs behind a $10 pay wall.

I'm afraid they've reallocated all of their resources to MUT. But I'm an optimist and am hoping its just them trying to fix the 84 OVR training pack glitch before releasing any new packs.
They posted yesterday on X that it would be coming on wednesday this week, so no makerights coming.
Overall though yeah we've gotten awful content drops and really just bad content across the board by this team. Such a waste of potential killed by laziness. (I'll never buy the understaffed excuse, it's making virtual cards that take maybe 5 minutes a player model tops.)

I agree anyone should be able to easily create a season worth of content in 8 hour shift. They have so much potential but waste it.

Didn't expect a makeright since it's EA, but you're 100% right. It really can't take long to create the card (Wilson and Bosworth being the exact same is a prime example of this, they cut and paste attributes and just change the card art) To be frank, it's a really bad look for EA. But idk when they've made themselves look competent in the last 10 years.

Yeah man and that's pretty much the issue is that they can really slap us in the face all they want and we just kind of have to deal with it if we want to play an ultimate team type build for football. I didn't expect the world this year in terms of content but definitely expected there to be way more with this being the first CFB game back after 10 years. They have probably 5,000 names to choose from for likeness and we're getting barely any content, and the content we are getting is pretty copy and paste (literally now after seeing the sapp/booger and wilson/bosworth stuff) across both modes- only CFB is getting increasingly worse and we're barely a week into the CFB season smh.

It's super frustrating when most of the player base grinds this game out of enjoyment of gaming and the sport. No company will be able to match EA's money they give for likeness, so things will likely never change. Unless someone buys EA, tears it down, and builds it back from the ground up. I'm trying to stay optimistic that the content moving forward for S2 is doable. I have 1 mil in coins and haven't bought anyone in S2 since the best cards are just unattainable, and content is so dry that the market is severely bloated. Hopefully it will come down in the next couple weeks if content is good.

Hilarious that they still haven't even given a reveal. This game's in shambles and it shouldn't even be. What exactly are they doing at EA? I'm genuinely curious as to how and why we haven't seen any reveal or tweet since the content schedule.

They sit around and discuss how to make players less obtainable and then when they get done with that they take a look at who they should make an LTD to sell packs then they half ass/don't get around to the rest of what they should be doing. Then they botch something and the cycle repeats itself. Just lazy mouthbreathers that don't even touch their own product.

Game came out a month ago and they already forgot about it. I don't get it, game comes out after a 10 year hiatus. You'd think they'd allocate enough devs and testers to it. But it doesn't seem like the case. They've made $200 million alone on copies, the least they can do is give us a reveal on time.

Yeah man part of the problem with a lot of this is that anyone that works there either
A) Doesn't touch this game at all.
or
B) If they do play this game they can just grant themselves whatever they card they want to, so there's no care about how the community gets the card because they can just have any single one at any point in time. They have no actual idea how much time/money it would take to get most of their stuff, and they don't care,

Different Dev teams.
