Od...fix this crap...
I've been stuck at E3 for the past week with a 50% win rate. It gets atrocious when you can't move up in rank. I'm not claiming to have a power-house team and demanding that I should win, however give players an opportunity to move up for crying out loud. I'm losing as many fans as I'm winning each day which makes me not want to bother with OD.
And I agree with you 100% that there is something going on. Whether it's DDA, ELO or some other acronym, the player performance from game to game is too inconsistent once you reach E2. OD as a whole is very frustrating.

lol...nice
Pressures really kill OD for me personally.
Why are you making me run 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 yards on a play when I'm being timed, don't want to run on 3rd/4th down, and when running in OD is almost impossible for me?
And then the opponents get the points when I fail. Just doesn't make any sense to me. Maybe in H2H but when I barely have 3 mins and my opps seem like they are scoring TDs with ease, I don't need ridiculous challenges popping on my screen every few seconds derailing me further.
And just because I can theoretically do the same thing to them doesn't make the game any more enjoyable for either of us I'd imagine...."Oh I made you fail a challenge, rage, and give me points for doing nothing. What a fun game mode."
Challenges should be optional and reward the player for doing them not be punishments that slow you down and reward your opponent if you don't do them.
I'd love to see them try to pull this same crp on console. OD will become a dead feature as soon as they forget about it and make the rewards sht just like last year.
This year's OD module is the same piece of shit module as last season.
Gameplay and matchmaking freaking sucks.
I'm dropping this piece of shit mode as soon as I max out the coach i need for LvL.
EA, here's an effing suggestion, so people like me don't have to play this miserable piece of shit mode. Make it so that LvL has access to all the coaches with their playbooks.
Make OD mode a mode for the masochist that enjoy the mode, otherwise get rid of it.

As as you can see the first few drives we were even and out of no where my team can’t do anything. How is that possible without any manipulation within the game? Opp didn’t add in new strategy, nor new players, I did lower my ovr or power nonetheless why did this happen?
Well, defensive tactics do provide significant boosts to defensive stats.

That’s probably not the answer you wanted though.

Overdrive is a dumpster fire plain and simple. The mode accentuates everything that is wrong with the gameplay and is terribly inconsistent. Please EA give Arena a leaderboard and a tiered reward system like overdrive so I can stop playing overdrive.

FYI, I usually hold my captain bonus to the end to surprise people. I think a lot of people do.
Hope you can claw youw way back. Definitely wait a bit and let the ELO (matchmaking ranking) catch up to place you in a category with other players on the E II EI II cusp. You are probably still playing a lot of E III HOF cusp group. I don't want to be playing them.

Appreciate your response but if it walks like a duck talks like a duck it’s a duck. There should be zero reason why in one series everything works fine, next series can’t throw to wr, insta sacks, drop balls, etc. Maybe it’s not dda but there is something programmed in the game to determine how a game will go. I’ve been seesawing WLWLWWLLWL since I posted this thread.

There are serious issues with this mode and I’m not even sure why I’m still playing it. When I started playing about 30 mins ago I was in e1 with 33k fans and now still in e1 but 380 fans. I keep losing to lower ovr and powered teams who magically get their captain bonuses in last 10 sec of the match. This DDA nonsense needs to be removed from this game but I know it won’t happen. For those who’ll say get better, in the words of Eminem:
“So I point one back at 'em, but not the index or pinkie Or the ring or the thumb, it's the one you put up When you don't give a ****”
