AI Bots in H2H

So I think we all knew it for a long time, but I have never seen a confirmation from EA that they themselves are running AI Bots that play against you in H2H seasons and Champs. I know some people don’t care, but I absolutely do. All the people that complain about or deny “DDA” as an issue, can start asking themselves this question. Is it DDA or is it EA playing against you. How many times have you lost to a scam AI team ran by EA and lost your season rewards?? They don’t give us an option to Opt out of this and have never put it on record that online head to head is mostly AI Bots….. why even play and spend if your not playing real people??

I Asked EA This: Why are AI bots playing against me in online Head to Head in College Ultimate Team?

From EA.Help.Com: 

“Al Bots are used in College Ultimate Team Head to Head matches in EA Sports College Football 25 to provide players with opponents to play against. These Al-controlled squads are part of the games features to allow players to compete even when there are no human opponents available. The use of Al Bots ensures that players can still enjoy the game and earn rewards by playing against CPU-controlled teams from the community.”

I noticed AI bots when I played the Underdogs HR. At first I wasn’t sure but then I played enough to realize they were way too easy to play against.

yep. The ones in Head 2 Head and champs are the ones I’m more concerned about and am not entirely sure it should be legal…. especially when it’s the ones that are using 95ovr players that can’t be touched by your 99s. It’s gotten so bad the last month or so. I feel like they should at minimum give you the option to opt out of any Non-Human in H2H. They are literally pretending to be people. That’s pretty messed up.

What if you just lose to people who are better than you ? Sometimes I blow out people with worse teams than me, other times I don’t play well and lose. Just because you have a better team than someone doesn’t mean you your going to win. Just cause you have a 99 player doesn’t mean they are going to catch every ball or break every tackle. 

I’ve played this game a lot and honestly haven’t noticed any AI on head 2 head but assume those would be super easy wins as the AI in these games are not challenging at all

A: because I am paying a premium to play a mode that is advertised as “Head 2 Head” not “1 vs CPU” 

B: You will run into teams that have low rated cards like a QB with 90 speed that takes off and outruns a 99 speed SS like he’s an OL.

C: They are not just regular CPU like you see in Challenges. These are AI Bots literally pretending to be people. They will even have chat enabled. I don’t care as much about the other PEOPLEs team’s performance, but I expect my cards that I’ve invested time and some money into to perform like the game advertised them to. Bot games make your own players dumb. Not always, but even a few times is pretty unethical from a business perspective. 

D: They should have to advertise and clearly show that you are not playing against humans. This shouldn’t be hard to understand.

That’s messed up. I don’t want to play against AI.

That’s correct. They are the casino, dealer and control the actual competition. It’s a rigged game top to bottom.

@Legend is this okay to discuss? Just saw you close a similar type thread so just asking out loud and not trying to start shit and get banned

I'd imagine some people on here have a tight knit relationship with some of the EA team on here so in saying that, thats why you'd be banned. For talking "trash" and bringing things out into the open especially stuff like this.

Yeah I agree with what your saying man I see how that could be frustrating!

I’m in campus legend and people with bot like names will thrash me with 93 ovr teams

If that’s true it’s disgusting. A reason to play MUT where far more people play it.

Lmao there ain't no bots, you guys are ass hahaha.
