EA Please get rid of RIVALS and PLAYOFF Boost !

[dorismary]

Hi Guys,
Its hard enough to find good FAIR sliders with this game but this boost stuff that happens in Rival games and Playoffs really wrecks good games .
Now I/we will have to adjust sliders back and forth
I hate games that do this as its very unrealistic and especially how it happens and yes in real life not every rival game is close or a magical finish
At best Rivals or Playoffs should be more emotion ONLY !
Thanks to Playmakers sliders who saved this game for many !

I always liked how your opponents would get a boost for rivalry/playoff games but your team wouldn't like the other team is getting all hyped up for this big game but your team doesn't

Correct !!! and what does that tell you about how this game is made ? If it was sim as they say they wouldnt need this.
Thats why all boosts are a unrealistic cheat .
Really frustrating after finding great sliders so what does it matter on wanna play based on my skills and slider level only, thats why I wont play madden my skill

Except there are no boosts?

Wouldn't really say it's unrealistic. For example, no matter how bad the Texans have been, they have always given the Jags a fight.

Also never realized there was a boost.

Call it whatever you want or by any name but its bad .
I mean I can lower reaction to stop it but then the games are wrecked .

They feel the same to me. I blew out the Chargers by 21 pts using the Raiders. I use a slider mix between all pro and all madden.

Dang, this game must be unrealistic if the Raiders are beating the Chargers by 21 lol just messing with you man.

I have heard about the boost before, but I agree with the Raider fan...never really noticed a difference while playing the games. It's not like I'm hesitant to go deep because I'm thinking "Oh no, Ravens have a boost...they are gonna pick me off for sure!" lol so it doesn't effect my game play experience.
