Playtime Calculations

Does anyone know what the playtime in the universal profile uses to calculate playtime? Is it just gameplay? Does it include menu time (trades, updating rosters, etc)? Is pause time excluded? I’m asking because I play entirely offline and have about 28 days. This will help determine how much mental help I actually need.

It is only on field time that counts.

Hmm, really? I always thought the opposite.

I have a buddy that is addicted and spends more time selling and flipping of cards making a "profit" than he does playing the actual game and he has figured it counts menu time as well.

Edit: I can confirm it is menu time as well. I was up late and sat for a few minutes and it counted.

Thankfully, because I have 13 days on franchise! I cant wait for 21!

Hmmm.... For franchise I thought it was on field time only. I swear it was. Felt like I spent more time in the game mode than what the counter said. Oh well.
