I've never gotten into Ultimate Team mode. Just seems like another way to

promote micro-transactions in video games in a pay-to-win scheme. But to each their own.

NCAA Football will have an Ultimate Team mode, just like Madden and EAFC

So just like Madden, they'll start neglecting everything else.

They focus on Ultimate team because it's a cash cow that keeps people paying

Agreed, I've never played it on soccer, NFL, and I won't in college football

bad news, MUT killed madden.

it's sad but expected, imo. It's their money maker

Right. I could get behind a game mode like Ultimate Team if it didn't feel like

It'd be fun to have Ty Detmer throwing to Marvin Harrison Jr. and Rocket Ismail with Reggie Bush out on the flat. That

Does MUT do Icons? EAFC has "Icons" (so like the Reggie Bushs of CFB), but also has "Heroes" (like the Luke Staleys)

That’s an optimistic view of ultimate team

Is that EA's answer to NIL?

what does that mean lol

That you can just build your team with players without recruiting mode.

oh gotcha.

There is 0 chance this game is anything better than a reskinned Madden, ew

As long as it has a strong and robust dynasty mode I'll be happy.

Same, basically the reason I play is to move my way up to coaching ranks, and

I’m cautiously optimistic, but we’ll know more tomorrow. They delayed the game a year, which I think is a good thing

It's crazy because I think the most untapped genre out there is sports life sim

In game NIL. Your star is leaving? $1.99 to keep him. Oh you want that team’s QB? $5.99. Players keep 70% of the profits

Don't give them any ideas.

My thought here is that Ultimate Team isn't good. Expected, but sad.

the old games had that too, or at least the last one did

Edit, I was wrong, the mode did exist

There was an Ultimate Team in NCAA 14. I tore up defenses with Austin Collie.

I stand corrected, there's a part of the game I've never even looked at.

It was pretty fun. Before microtransactions made the mode unplayable unless you spent a buttload of cash.

I assumed that was already a foregone conclusion. That's where the studios make

Do we have any idea what the 4600 points will be used for?

99% chance that it’s the virtual currency for the ultimate team modes
