Why a "Grand" badge?

Who sat back and said:

"Ok, i know we've added HOF badges to make the best players even better...but why not add something they can activate that can make them even better than that?"

To me its an insane concept, especially considering it was introduced in an competitive environment and the HOF badges themselves dont even require a HOF career.

Am i over-thinking it? Whats the forum's feeling on'em?

I agree. These badges is getting out of hand. But I knew from the beginning Park, MyCareer, and ProAm wasn't going to be that good because of how MyCareer was setup starting off w/ the caps.

I think it's an acknowledgment of the blandness of the new player builds, so gimmicks have been added to try and add some excitement to them. I don't get it personally, especially when they're so easy to earn so everyone has them.

Random blocks doing pumpfakes.

Leaning shots for guys who have catch and shoot badge should be removed.

Re: Why a "Grand" badge?

Re: Why a "Grand" badge?

I don't see any boost off my grand badge as a Playmaker

I have 22 bars on Agility and Playmaker... archetype badges are on Silver.. not sure if those stats are holding me back or my dude is terribly fatigued? I'm on Pro Difficulty and do not see any noticeable improvement in performance.. no boost whatsoever that indicates I've reach demigod mode lol

Hopefully I see it in Park ☺
