Breakout scenarios are out of hand!

[Shosum13]

This is crazy, after the last patch we are seeing an absurd amount of superstar breakout scenarios in my 32 user league. In the couple of weeks we've advanced through since last patch we've had at least 4 or 5 teams with a superstar breakout scenario every week. We just advanced to the 3rd week since the patch and I got TWO superstar breakout scenarios for my team this week, one for my WR and another for one of my CBs. If it keeps going at this rate every team is going to have half of their starters with superstar abilities.

In our 32 user franchise we do coach mode, to get everybody retired as a coach and to create owners it would be a mess.

This is absolutely stupid, how does EA always manage to f*** this game up with updates, its every year. I just was able to get an upgrade to superstar for my CB, and look after my game and another user got an upgrade for their LB. Now 3 weeks since the patch in the current season and we are literally seeing 5 to 6 superstar breakout scenarios A WEEK on average. This is going to absolutely ruin our franchise.

You guys are achieving the stats needed to actually upgrade the dev trait every time? They can be pretty tough to get. 150 yards rushing or 3tds for the rb variety is hard

I agree with this; mind you I play offline and don't force feed players to upgrade their development trait. Online user franchises is a different ball game though.

The dev team probably made some mistakes in how they designed the Breakout Scenarios, but it's made worse I'm sure but the fact that many Users(especially in H2H leagues) go out of their way to Meta-game the success necessary to get the upgrade. It's the nature of competitive play(even amongst sim players) to try and maximize their advantage if the game and the rules of their league allows it.
