FIFA 20

Can’t really blame the player base for exploiting EA’s lack of competency when rewards are up for grabs I guess.

That is the problem now. FUT 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5 years ago, the drive/goal was simple, play games to build a better team, that was fun. Now it's like a job for people, it's not a game anymore, just a chore, grind wins us using any method necessary. The end goal is hoping you will be rewarded with a nice player, of which there are only around 20 usable in the whole game because of the "meta". It's created a community who have gone bat **** crazy with it all.

Rttf Militao is more agile and generally more consistent in positioning. As I said not better by much so obviously it depends from person to person but for me after playing a decent number of games with him I’d say he his and that’s before his upgrade. Having said all that if he goes up much more I’ll have to cash in.

Ive played FUT since the very first iteration and its very true. But you could say the same about every game. I remember the original COD 4, MW2 where it was more social and played for fun. Now everyone on COD wants to be a pro and cares all too much about there K/D. Due to the nature of this everyone wants to give themselves the biggest advantage. Whether that be hardware, software or just following metas.

I'm pretty certain i've seen you mention K/D or wins/losses etc in the past and that you wouldn't play if it was negative which is the mentality of many other people and part of it all. (if it wasn't you i apologise)

I do think the replay-ability since they introduces FUT champs and SBCs etc has improved a lot but its made the game a lot more competitive. I guess if people dont want that then H2H Seasons is more for them.

Yeah it was me. Like you, I have played COD since 3 and other than some stints playing HQ and S&D, for the past 10+ years I've predominately played TDM. Your K/D states what kind of an asset you are to your team, so I've always gone on that. Plus, it's just been a running thing with friends throughout, comparing stats. It never changed our play style like it does with people on FIFA, you could have course camp every game to achieve ridiculous kills but that wasn't our thing.
The same could be said for FIFA and your W/L ratio. It shows how good I am at the game, not for others to see but just for my own perusal!

I just want gold tournaments back and seasons that isn't littered with these ridiculous icon objectives that have made a mockery of the whole thing!

That's the problem with games as a service and MTX. The more you feel you have to play not to miss out on rewards the more the game is treated as a grind. The more it's treated as a grind the more it feels like a job to these people. MTX let's you speed up the grind for a fee so EA introduces more and more 'Rewards' incentivising spending.

Absolutely, the lack of a casual mode lets the game down. I really dislike rivals, its more sweaty than the weekend league and i dont want to have to try that hard 7 days a week. I like the idea of objectives but not in Rivals. They certainly need to bring back tournaments or some form of casual mode to play with more interesting teams, i also enjoyed using silvers over the years was good fun. Now your just getting matched against golds and getting battered.
