I'm FTP. I have Marvels. What can I tell you? There's nothing wrong with a little excitement, but my excitement would come in the form of true competitive modes with good incentives to play, not in a higher OVR. If anything, being FTP, higher OVRs would just facilitate the whales' domination. No thanks.

Before last year, that's what it always was. And that keeps the Marvels (Ray, Minkah, etc) relevant for a long time thereby making the build worthwhile. I've got no problem with the progression. (I've got plenty of other problems with EA but the current progression is fine with me).

My issue with this season is there are no real competitive modes (Daily Arena is so boring and is not at all competitive). For me, that's a major--I would even say the major--reason I always enjoyed the game, even through OD. I loved the competition. Now there's nothing to do. So competitive modes aside, I'd be willing to go C-, which is better than last year, but taking competitive modes into the grade, D- at best. It's not bad, it's just boring.

Agreed. BF is usually a lot of deals and this was a major letdown.

I did pull two rares from the events.

It's easy to advance to HOF without paying any MC. It's almost impossible to stay in HOF without putting up some MC.

I'm not a fan of boosts. It's cool inflating your team and all, but competing for weights, which is what you're basically doing...it's boring. I mean, are you--is anybody--really that excited to get a big weight reward (compared to even a moderate player reward)? I keep my 10% boosts constant, but eh. It's not enticing me to log into the game.

I'm still playing because of my league which has been the case for 3 years running. Without my league, I would have quit long ago.

If you accept that MM is now a card-collecting game and not a competitive football simulation then you will see you're not missing anything.

I agree. This game is so boring right now. Even if there were more weights to win, the weights...I don't know. Am I alone in thinking weights are a pretty second-rate thing to grind for? They don't hold the same allure as playing for MC or players. And as for H2H, with no leaderboard and nothing really at stake, it adds to the overall boredom.
