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.

    • I think you mean relevant but they have been fine, the problem is the lack of in game adjustments.  He has also been just decent at recruiting.  Duke having tons of success hurts and just fine isn’t good enough at UNC.  
    • I don't see it as drafting a premium player to sit and wait if Walker gets hurt. We need a legitimate swing T. Unless you have a Sewell or Slater type tackle that is pretty much a sure thing, these guys can need some time to develop year 1 just like a QB ideally should. They all haven't played the elite 5 star talent on the edge. If we think another franchise tackle has dropped to us at 19, you have to pull the trigger. The position is just too damn hard to find. If it's just a "we need a tackle and this guy has a T on the board", yeah, move on, take one in the later rounds. But if that guy is there, let him back up and learn a year, then slide him into LT on year 2 of his rookie deal.  I don't see us being able to offer Walker a multi year contract after a prove it year, pay Moton his final almost fully guaranteed year, Hunt, Lewis a center and do a 50-60m extension for Bryce. The 3 most important positions on the field are QB, blindside tackle (usually LT), and edge rusher. Those are the premium positions that cost the most and are hardest to come by. If a starting caliber talent is there at 19 you have to pull the trigger.  I understand the need for a DT and S. I've been on the C and FS train for years. If we weren't staring at a potential Bryce extension, it'd make the decision a lot easier I think. It's just with all these huge contracts I don't see how we can hedge our bets on being able or even wanting to re-sign Walker, especially if he has a bad year. Icky and BC's injuries really hurt our long term plans.  If no blue chip talent at those 3 key positions are available at 19, by all means pass and draft another position. But I think it's pretty safe to say we don't have a guaranteed lock at any of them right now beyond Phillips, and they have to be somewhat of a priority. 
    • Not completely accurate. I'm sure Roy is lobbying for him and Larry Brown has spoke put in support too. But Hansbrough has made comments pretty critical and hinting at a need for change. Joel Berry has gone a step further and said the standard has not been met. Scott Williams who was a teammate of Hubert's at Carolina has gone all the way and said it's time for a change at head coach.
