Famous writer EA is no stranger to Mut 21 coins controversy. Whether it's advertisements in UFC 4 or inspection bombing of their latest Madden NFL game, the business is often the target of gamers' ire. EA's latest controversy, dubbed #EAGATE on Twitter, is wrapped up at the continuing controversy around loot boxes, especially in the supreme Team manner in FIFA 21. Ultimate Team is a style that appears across EA's package of licensed sports games. It mixes elements of dream sports-style team direction together with the deck-building of a classic card game. The loot box element comes from packs which players may buy to boost their teams. Those microtransactions make Ultimate Team the most lucrative mode in EA's sports games.

On the 1 hand, it's easy to write off this for anyone without skin from the game. If someone's already spending thousands of dollars launching packs, why should not they go straight to the source and get the players they want? But for the players who are active in Ultimate Team, it seems like a betrayal. Since Nick put it,"So we grind/trade/open packs and can not touch these PIM players, but EA employees sell them to individuals secretly for $1,700?!?!" It generates an even wider gap between the haves and have-nots in the sport, without even the veneer of players getting high-rated players through ability.

EA acknowledged this in their reaction to the allegations. They blamed it on compromised accounts or EA employees going into business for cheapest madden 21 coins themselves. EA announced an investigation into the misconduct, promising to take action against any players and employees caught participate in the supreme Team black sector. Though they didn't specify what action would be taken against workers engaged in the scandal, players will be prohibited forever.
