Totally agree.

Co-sign...However, I don't think it's "just" a money maker. I play without buying coins occasionally when I'm bored of the other modes. I definitely see what you mean though.

I've had some fun with MUT as much as I'm reluctant to admit it. Team Builder would make it better. There's too much reliance on spending real money to upgrade a team, but I suppose that's the point.

It does lead into the category of "please spend money, it makes it much easier"...As a business I get that and it's a great decision, as a gamer I find that being the main reason I play it so rarely. I'm not cheap, I'll buy any DLC I find worth it..but coins to build a team of players when I could do the same in franchise for free doesn't strike me as a must-buy...Which I'm pretty sure is your point exactly.

The decision I absolutely abhor is charging coins for Madden Moments Live. It kills a fun feature, and I consider it borderline obscene. It looked like they were experimenting with lifting the charge last season. The feature should always be free.

There is certain DLCs I will buy and some I wont. MUT is not one of them. I was disappointed that Madden Moments weekly was not free. The game is already $60. I dont want to spend another 10+ on DLCs. I will spend money on DLC for either gameplay or something that makes things simplier or saves time ex. Draft scouting

I get more bang for my buck out of Madden than any other game I buy every year, I don't mind spending a couple extra bucks on things that extend the enjoyment of the game further. Aside from the occasional MMO, there's nothing I've bough on a console in the last few years that I've played more than that years Madden and/or NCAA.

I'm not sure I've spent any money on MUT, but it's obvious people do and it's an actively used feature.

I agree aswell. I could never get into MUT. I guess some people like it and all. But for me I wheather see them focus on the offline franchise mode and gameplay most of all. MUT is a little side fun type deal for people who like stuff like that.
