Yesterday EA partially responded due to #CFBPlayDontPay, but they did almost nothing. It felt like they were seeing what they could get away with.
However, this shows they’re willing to cave now, but we have to keep making our voices heard
They’re probably thrilled it’s Friday, and hoping this all blows over during the weekend, but it won’t until they give the community what they deserve
Remove microtransactions from single player game modes and put back ALL of the fast XP sliders that were just in CFB 26.
@CFBDirect@IsItOutEa Please just launch a completed game that isn’t unplayable. You know what you need to fix. Remove the predatory microtransactions and get it out of coach leveling. #CFBPlayDontPay
In a Creators Fact Sheet, EA shares the following College Football 27 info:
- Design goals re: purchasable Accelerators in Dynasty & RTG.
- Dynasty fixes including to CPU recruiting arriving as early as next week. Dynasties will not need to be restarted. More info 7/9. #CFB27
EA is still gaming the numbers. They bumped level rewards from 10→25 pts, which sounds generous, but:
Beginner tier max: 3.2→3.6 coach levels
Elite tiers (ex. CEO/Program Builder): 4.8→ 5.2 coach levels
In conclusion, it is a bit cheaper if you only want the first couple upgrades, but overall, they made each tree actually more expensive, except CEO and Program Builder.

According to @MikeStrawMedia, many devs who knew about the stuff coming to College Football 27 were “livid” about it for months
He says “Even future single-player-only titles will have more monetization options enabled.” This is no longer about just CFB 27
This is about the future and direction of games coming from EA. I am speechless #CFBPlayDontPay

You know what’s free and not gonna cost you anything when you don’t wanna pay for it?

Sneaking micro transactions into single player modes lets me know everything i need to about where EA wants to take both football titles in the future
That’s why it’s now or never to make a change. Taking the game in that direction is going to ruin all of the support and love you have built from this community. Do what’s right @EASPORTSCollege
#CFBPlayDontPay
After putting microtransactions in the game, Ill be hitting refund. EA destroyed Star Wars Battlefront 2 at launch and they will do it to CBF27. @EASPORTSCollege#CFBPlayDontPay
First it was exclusive features put behind a paywall
Now we’re replacing free features with microtransactions in dynasty mode?
EA might literally be ensuring that some of their OG gamers don’t come back next year :/
@bordeauxyoutube EA has been predatory with micro transactions in the past. They killed Star Wars battlefront two on release and this would have hurt CFB27 if it got out earlier.
