You can say that a out every online mode in this game other than League's. And even then that's only because you're choosing who to let into your league instead of being matched up with a random.
And I get people don't like it hahaha. There's modes I dont like. But I don't understand why people feel the need to hate on it or make school child type remarks, all snide and stuff. It's just a game mode. If you like it, great! If not? Be quiet and go play a different mode.
It's like when one of the simnation bloggers said real sim players never play MyCareer. Ever.
As if playing a more laid back mode automatically made you less of a player.
The arrogance is sometimes really annoying. People can be condescending as hell, over nothing. It's a freaking video game lmao.
