I've been watching the stream here and there. A large part of it was about MUT and Draft Champions which disappointed me. Really wanted to see some playbooks/gameplay and CFM talk. EA has pushed their chips into MUT and is not looking back

To be fair MLB The Show, NBA 2K, and FIFA all are doing the same. I never played MUT last year because I think football is the worst sport to have a my team mode. I've pretty much given up on sports game having an in depth franchise mode.

The MUT teams are fun for a few months, and then it gets out of hand towards the back end of the season because everyone has all 99 players.

I've seen a couple of YouTubers already have a copy, but I think there's an embargo on when they can release content

As posted below, this is what the sports game market has come to. They have found a huge gold mine and they're going to abuse that until it dries up (it never will).

MUT is actually a lot of fun for a few months. Upgrading your team and making crucial decisions on who fits your play style. It's like do I get this speed burner with so so hands or do I get a strong possession receiver?. Once they start to release the 95s then the 99s it's like well this isn't even real. Jerry Rice with 95 speed? Yeah ok.

If they would keep it realistic and have every player that actually has a ceiling card, the longevity would be alot more fun

1st impression is I love the way the game handles. Also the CPU seems much harder, even on all pro. They gave me a hell of a game.

Everything I've read said the gameplay is great, by far the best Madden in years. The CFM disappoints once again though supposedly. The graphics look great in everything I've seen so far though.

2k, FIFA, NHL all have team play/be a pro mode.I think that's why I would buy these games over madden, and I use to be madden/ncaa buying son of a gun.

One problem I wish they would fix. Like on NCAA 14 how you could go into the Lobby and find an opponent that had a good rank and you could play them to get your rank up quicker.

On madden, all those lobbys are unranked.

Also showing the record of the team you are playing would be nice.

I don't understand why you would call this "cheating". So I couldn't find a guy who's ranked #25 and beat him to give me a boost in my rankings?

If people would quit putting money into a game that you've already paid for then it wouldn't be a problem. But people these days don't have the patience for that.

I worked my team up to be pretty good last year despite not putting a dime in and I started really late.
