It's probably past players.

Interesting to see how this will actually work since current players can't be licensed. Probably not going to play the mode but cool for those that enjoy UT in the other EA games.

Re: Ultimate Team Headed to NCAA Football 14

never heard of ultimate team. only played the demos for fifa, and haven't gotten madden since 06 or so. what is it and how does it operate? is it like a fantasy team or all-star teams something?

Going to have to be past players. Don't like that it's taking up space, energy and resources.

How is this going to work with "fake" players?

Can't be past players. There's no union so they'd have to go get thousands of likenesses. They have to be selling you "generic" dudes.

Ultimate Team is a card collecting game where you field a team of players based on the cards you collect. You can then play Head to Head or against CPU. Sometimes they have promotions for certain cards. And sometimes they will host tournaments. But the big cash cow is the "auctioning" of cards.

MUT this year was almost unplayable for me. With an iffy Internet connection, the only way I could enjoy it was if I paid out of pocket for card packs. That and people wanting entirely too much for cards. I guess this means Amazon is getting pro combat unis again :/

When will EA realize that no one gives a fug about these card game modes?

hate to break it to you, but millions of people do care about it. FIFA and NHL make mad money because of the mode. This won't change.

It could be past players. They don't have to do likenesses on the field, they would only need player pictures for the cards. There are ways of working around it. The only question is how many past players they were able to get and how far back.

Wonder what the NCAA UT sub-forum for OS is going to be like. We already have FUT, HUT, and MUT and I kinda just browse while I'm there. How is this community going to embrace this new game mode?

not meant to be directed at you (not shooting messenger, thanks btw) but that sounds like crap.

why does everything have to be a damn cash grab. how about you just make a good game and people buy it because it's a good game, not make them pay for extra crap.

i won't play this anyway, so just a waste of time for me.

again, not directed at you, thanks for the info.

NUT? Just does not sound right. I've read where EA made tons of money off FUT so no surprise it is coming to NCAA. It will be interesting to see if they use generics or legends? Could this lead to some kind of deal where they raise money to settle some lawsuits and get naming rights?

No problem, happy to help. To add onto your point, I completely agree with you. I get duped into trying the mode (FUT, MUT, HUT) for the first week but the concept never really catches on to me. Its cool to "collect them all" but the fact that theres the buying and selling of cards and that you have a "chance" of getting the card you want from card packs that cost more than they are worth (IMO) makes this seem catered towards someone who has too much time on their hands or enough money to spend "buying" a team.
