MUT vs CUT

Yeah I’m definitely leaning more toward CUT these days. MUT just feels like a circus with all the broken abilities. CUT actually plays like football, which is what I’m here for. Wish it had more content drops, but I’d take solid gameplay over constant chaos any day.

They’d be silly not to. I believe they made so much off of the title sale itself that they needed to put more into micro transactions for Madden and The Soccer game. IMO that’s how you end up with multiple losers. A lot of people that bought 25 will just keep playing their 25 Dynasty so they’ll need to give people a reason to pay for 26.

Yeah this is my thinking. At the moment the only thing that makes MUT better is the content, and that aspect is a lot better to be fair. But the gameplay in CUT is way more fun and fluid, and as someone who loves tactics, the sheer variety of playbooks and the fact you don’t need an ability to call all hot routes is a big bonus. I hope the defensive changes in 26 make it better on defense cos at times that’s been pot luck, but what they have written is solid, see if it translates to the game!

Same, think I’ll cancel my madden pre order and pick up CFB. Been a helpful thread.

College football is king. The NCAA franchise, now College Football, has always wiped the floor with Madden in every way. The only purpose for Madden is transferring your create-a-player from CFB to play his career out in the pros. It's always been that way.

i mean its june so the community doesn't care anymore it makes it more fun. Everytime I play cut its just part 10 of the same promo and i dont understand how yall don't get bored

Edit: Speaking of ridiculous abilities, takeoff, quick jump, extender...

Bruh in mut literally every single player on the field has abilities loaded on, some have like 5+ abilities…. U can’t rip on cut abilities while supporting mut 🤣

Don’t even compare those abilities to MUT. MUT has a million 0 AP abilities on top of ridiculous X-factors. MUT is trash. CUT is a lot easier for NMS players too

I like it to be as realistic as possible CUT is with the exception of a couple of things like those 3 influencer cards and the sideline dude card. Sounds like there is more fantasy in MUT I basically stopped playing Fifa/FUT once they put women in there playing like men.

I wish they’d bring the evolution concept to MUT/CUT, best bit about EA FC these days.

but almost every ability has a counter in madden like vanguard is counter by reinforcement and universal coverage is sometimes counters by the elite catchin abilities or how even avalance and truzz works 50/50 or like how route tech and one step ahead cancel each other out. When I'm playin cut i js have to accept my 99 speed dbs will get cooked by takeoff or that my d-line are just not going to tackle the qb (takedown supposed to counter extender but it hardly works) or how i will js get scream at in 6-1 against somebody who has quick jumps

if you are perhaps a casual and are playing soley to have fun, yes CUT gameplay is much better. However if you are  looking to not break your controller and more consistent gameplay with the least amount of fluke/RNG than MUT.  Because the skill gap in CUT is nonexistent.

there are literally x factors in MUT where you can see your opponents play. Games unplayable past a certain point. QJ is also super easy to counter

So they release evolutions you can put any player into and evolve their attributes and abilities (playstyles). It allows you to take players who wouldn’t normally get an upgrade and build them up. There are certain player requirements for each evo like position and attribute caps.

It’s great for theme teams. For example I upgraded a 59 overall player to a 94. You get some really unique player builds. Some evos are free, others cost coins or points.

yea but there not spammed, only 1 player has omaha on for the whole game, but u have to sacrifice other really good abilities to run it

in cut everybody uses the same 5-7 abilities extender, ballhawk, shifty, takeoff, sure hands, house call, and quick jump
