FIFA 11 Ultimate Team

Is anyone trying to get that gold offer that they said would be up at 6? Been clicking on it for ages and says it's not available.

now it says it's sold out? It hardly sold out at 1 minute past 6?

got to an online final today only to face a real madrid/Barcelona dream team with Messi/Villa/Ronaldo etc. Is that even possible at this stage without some major cheating? The team was chelsea xi if you wish to avoid it.

its possible with some 59min trading. I'm up to 135,000 in coins. yet to build a team tho but making coins quite easily

Downloaded this yesterday, I got the two free goal packs. Two packs full of absolute knob. Juan Pablo Angel and Walter Gargano were the only "decent" things between both packs.

ummm you set your Buy It Now to the amount of coins you have. Then select gold and then skip to the page where the trading is at 59minutes (new trades) and keep refreshing till a bargain pops up. I got nani for 10000 and sold for 25000 minutes later and so on. pain in the hole getting to the 59th minute page....takes about half an hour

If you check their gamertag before the game you can avoid these cnuts. If their status says "Playing FUT Tournament", they're fine; if it says "Watching FUT Tournament", they're probably cheating. Of course we shouldn't have to do this but we do.

In Ultimate Team? Are you sure? Just had two lads quit on me, didn't get the win either time. Looks like that'll be the end of Ultimate Team for me so. What a ridiculous design decision. ****ing ridiculous.

I've had a few people quit on me and have always gotten the win

Charlie Haughy

This game is annoying as ****... near impossible to get many points or win as ive only just started it now and nearly every team I come up against has a top player (ronaldo,messi,rooney,kaka etc) and they just abuse that player by passing to him and running etc.

Not so for me...wtf?

This is my current side:

Formation: 4-4-2

Manager: Giovanni Trappatoni

GK: Joe Hart
DR: Alan Hutton
DC: Chris Smalling
DC: Richard Dunne
DL: Paul Konchesky
MR: Ricardo Quaresma
MC: Anderson
MC: Stephen Ireland
ML: Damien Duff
ST: Yakubu
ST: Nicola Zigic

Subs: Zoran Tosic, Ji-Sung Park, Mikel San Jose, David De Gea, Jonathon De Guzman, Darron Gibson, Walter Gargano, Mame Biram Diouf

My marquee signing was Stephen Ireland (2,000 coins), could have got him for 1,500 but the 2,000 BIN was 4-4-2. Thinking of it like that, I really got a 4-4-2 formation card for 500 coins.

I got Hart 1,200 BIN which was an absolute steal. 4-4-2 Anderson for 1,100 BIN. Can't remember what I paid for Quaresma, but it wasn't more than 2,000. Most of the others were got for less than 1,000. Only one player I got from a gold pack (Zigic).

Its fairly solid, Smalling and Dunne are strong and good in the air, Zigic is a f*cking monster in the air, Yakubu is strong and has a bit of pace, Stephen Ireland is excellent.

Only had 2 people quit on me in about 20 games online which isn't bad, but I didnt get the win either time

This is my team at the minute. Really happy with it. Got lucky in my first couple of packs and it went nicely from there. Considering getting Anelka up front and then maybe Ligue 1 based CAM to boost the chemistry with Hazard/Remy on RM.

Hey I have 3 /wolfsburg players if you want them. Ziani, Madlung and Schafer

Frisbee

Playing on PS3 but it's probably the same for Xbox.

Does anyone find the matchmaking very off? Like I was playing the other night as my 1.5 star team and twice in a row I was paired against a 3.5 and 4 star team. Surely it should try match you against someone close to your current skill level. Coming up against the likes of A. Young and Amauri when your best player is Simon Davies is a bit of a pain

Managed to get a decent team together now though, in one gold pack I got Cambiasso and Muntari so my central midfield is solid as fcuk now.

I'm always matched with similar teams? At every stage I've been thrown up against teams that are very, very similarly rated to mine.

I haven't seen any of the "big" players yet, but then again, I haven't chanced a tournament yet.

Injuries are a killer. In one game last night, I had both my strikers (Yak & Carew) injured. I brought on Saha for the next game, and he gets injured too. Quaresma is out injured also (he is a walking sick note)...if I do a skill move to get past a defender and get fouled in the process, Quaresma gets injured. Duff is quite partial to the odd injury too.

Im playing with a Serie A XI

Formation 4-3-3

Manager - Ancelotti

GK - Buffon

RB - Zanetti
CB - Nesta
CB - Chiellini
LB - Riise (There really is a lack of a good LB in Serie A)

CM - Pirlo
CM - Di Rossi
CM - Hamsik

RW - Krasic
ST - Ibrahimovic
LW - Di Natale

Subs - De Sanctis, Gamberini, Santon, Montilivo, Totti, Ronaldinho, Cassano


Only player I'm looking for is Wesley Sneijder to take Hamsiks place but its going to take a while to build up the coins.

Minatauro

ist there anyone here that can help me out before i go mental. Im playing UT and ive built a decent team and my back four are ok
frey
chivu - cordoba - nesta- dabo
rafhina - de rossi - pizzaro - vargas
totti - lavezzi

Not too bad a team but I am getting beat by silver and struggling with bronze teams because of a few things:

the one twos through the centre of my defence.(defenders are like statues)

the one two and chip over cb for striker through on goal.(defender can never catch up????)

the winger rampaging down the wing who i can never knock off the ball.

Now I have tried the same manoeuvers on my opponents but it never works. I have lavezzi through on goal with 10 yards advantage but cb (even slower bronze ones ) always catches up.

any experts out there to help combat these tactics or tell me how to hold of defenders as im always easily muscled off the ball.

thanks.

You probably know this already but after every match you play your players fitness goes down so its best to have a good squad so you can switch players and give them a rest.

That's the only reason why I would think bronze CBs are catching up with your players.
