EA Needs to Address the High Cost of Training for PUs

12k to pu Aaron Donald to 95 from a 93 and I bet it gets worse as cards get better.

I mostly just run budget theme teams. I'm trying not to take it too seriously. Just wanna play the game, and have fun.

I find it sooo hard to stack training.  I wish I had like 500k tp, so I could upgrade every single card I have

I will still use my passes as needed if it is someone that will improve my team but otherwise I’m sticking with the base cards. I get why the brawler and sprinter are popular but I hate the idea of losing an attribute point when it takes 8000 TP to get the other two. I really haven’t noticed that much of a difference if any on my team since going this direction. 

 I may do this also.

Just got the game at Christmas and only casually playing this year after playing the last 3 years hardcore.  MY team is only an 83 overall right now lol and really not getting caught up in it all.  Just doing a few solos and messing around a little this year.  For me, it doesn't seem worth it to dump a lot of coins into power ups and training at this point.  I mean, I still have a few but I think I'd rather just get some decent deals on cards that I can resell later if I want as I upgrade.

 Lol what a joke that was. not touching this weeks, so its probably gonna be like 4500 training.

 It’s absurd that we have a daily show dedicated to MUT, but they can’t just tell us the value of these tokens!

We had less PU Passes last year im sure, so I dont complain. I powered Up Minkah and Kittle yesterday, was around 13k, plus abilities for Minkah for 5k.

EA is in the business of making money. Period. Get over it.

I wasted a whole NAT card on these power ups yesterday before it really went up for me.. Its not worth it. Im not powering many cards up on my main anymore. I cost 5k for Kittle. i spent like 11k on Michael Thomas, I also di another card. Thats basically 1 full TOTY NAt. WHAT A WASTE.

 Imagine how I felt doing Zack Martin from 88 to 97 lol

 He was steep!  But he is a beast with Cowboys chems.

and EA set the TP thresholds intentionally. They want to bleed your coins, cards, and dollars every way they can.

yeah that is really $$$

Great way for EA to clean up the market from all the 89/90 Cards, we hat a huge market raise here on PC, pretty sure it was much higher then on console. 89 are at 100k and 90 at 125k now.

 I will never understand why ppl like the market being high.

 No troll honestly I envy you . I wish I could do what you do . But I’m a perfectionist and I have to make my cards the vert best  they can be . Or I’m not comfortable
