XP has been reduced

They also nerfed myteam token rewards. We need more attention on this...unacceptable.

The grind is already despicable and they make it even worse now? For what reason? OH wait I know, slower grind = slower cap breaker = more incentive to buy VC.

From the number of 90+ I've seen before the Tuesday release, I think they made it too high to begin with

The struggle for VC is really a tiny part of the actual grind into the 90s. You can’t buy mypoints to unlock badges and cap breakers. They were likely upset that potentially offline myplayers would be “ranking up” significantly faster than online players.

CPU is cheesier now too.

There did seem to be an imbalance in offline and online play. I was getting 30-35k mypoints in a mycareer game and I only got around 13k in the Jordan rec game I tried. I didn’t light it up in the Jordan game but I played well enough. Still from a mypoints/time perspective, it was way less efficient to play online. Not sure if it was the same story for Park. I would have rather they jacked up the points for online modes to make the investment comparable than nerf offline though.

They even gave the mypark guys their separate ratings category this year, so they could see who were the best players, but that's still not enough for them. Unless Park and every other mode can be separated in future years, the game will stay in this grind-purgatory mode.

And??? They choose that route to rank up. We have a thread where people were arguing about the grind vs buying VC. That sounds so stupid. They can buy their overall, but they want to limit my ability to grind badges in a mode that's technically tied to the My Park mode?
