Madden Ultimate Team


Black

Recommended Posts

So, as it turns out, there is a limit of five Ultimate Teams per console on Madden. After making five, and every time running into the same issues with not having enough coins to sustain a team, I went to make a sixth with a new strategy.

I received a message that said the limit was five per console, and it looks like there is no way around it. I went through two online customer support chats trying to figure out a solution to no avail.

Has anyone run into this? Any advice?

I've had the same problem. When I played enough games I just didn't have enough coins left to get enough contract cards to resign all of my good/decent players, so I ended up having to replace those players with mostly crappy players I got from various packs I bought with the coins I did accumulate from playing UT games head to head. (I think contract cards are way too overpriced to buy them separately)

I guess the main problem is that you won't really get much enjoyment out of this mode unless you are willing to dish out real money to buy coins or buy legendary packs. If you spend enough of your own money to buy an assload of coins, you don't have to worry about contracts because you have so many players stockpiled from all the packs you got. I honestly don't see a viable way of keeping everyone you want to keep unless you use your own money. That, or you are just patient enough to accumulate enough coins through playing normal online games.

I'll probably wait until my birthday to buy a few legendary packs to help me out.

Another problem with this mode is that if your team overall skill is 85 or higher, its likely that you will be matched up with people that have a pooload of legendary players on offense that you wont be able to stop unless you have legendary players on defense... and most people I play seem to be rediculously good as well, so this mode is usually too frustrating for me to play for long.

First I completed a bunch of collections to get a bunch of coins. I never had a problem running out.

That's what I was going to do with my new team. Completing collections is the easiest way to get a lot of coins. I've gone back and started to try and complete some sets with an old Ultimate Team, but it would be a lot easier to start from scratch again.

i havent played lately but i approach it as a business. when you get a card thats worth 10k value, sell it and buy a 9k pack...sometimes you repost several times. do 1hr auctions as it keeps your card on top and first to see is first bought most of the time. good luck.

I miss playing regular franchise with Madden cards on previous generations.

Madden 2002 was one of the all time worst Maddens, but I loved it because you could make your own expansion team in place of the Texans. Although it was a very simplified version, I really liked building the entire team from the ground up. But I cheapened it up by using Madden cards - I remember having Dan Marino and Richard Dent on my expansion team.

    • Every team does it's homework. More so than any fan.  Brooks, had he not been injured, would have been a first round talent.  I have zero problems with the team (Dan Morgan and company) drafting Brooks in the 2nd.  He is a fantastic talent.  As far as risk, this is the NFL.  Any and every player is exposed to the same brutality that the NFL is.  Despite Brooks latest setback, it doesn't cost the team much.  Our running back room is stacked.  Could they have drafted someone else? Sure. No promise that someone else would have made an impact last year.  Or this year.   When it's your job to do what Dan does, I pray you get it all right. Lord knows that there isn't a single GM that gets it all right.   
    • Dang, we might not be able to create the same magic from last year!
    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.
