    Guess who thought he was smart holding all his packs since before christmas for toty and now regrets it :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,745 ✭✭✭✭Osmosis Jones


    The 81+ two player packs from the SBC were untradeable back then but the refunded ones were tradeable, opened like 50 of them but only 5 in the timeframe that warranted a refund.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,229 ✭✭✭Gyan84


    Opened my 3 refunded mega packs hoping to get some sbc fodder and the best player I got was bakayoko :o

    So EA released the info on TOTY there, basically there's a list of players for each position and FIFA YouTubers and the like get to vote on their TOTY and that accounts for 60%, then EA get the remaining 40% say. Once a consensus TOTY is chosen they'll release them into packs as usual.

    So despite suggesting the TOTY event will be very different this year it's basically the exact same only some YouTubers get a say in who gets elected, but even if EA don't like one of their choices they can just use their own vote to put in whoever they want.

    its utter bull****.
    Guaranteed Pogba will get one even if no one voted for him EA will make sure he does for the pack sales.

    Why not use Costa in the 2nd one?

    Ya mean douglas costa in the second squad or Rui Costa in both? Old Fifa habit, always have two full teams to rotate and always have full chem on everyone! :o

    Fitness cards are so cheap it pays to have one or two class players in both squads and just use a fitness card.

    For you to put a player like Costa in the second squad 8t would cost 700k or so.. it be easier to use him in both and use a 150 coin fitness card each time.

    Fair point, might rejig that first one so!

    always used to rotate myself but once you get to the stage of having an expensive team makes much more sense to use squad fitness, spend a million on a team why not spend 800 every couple of games, if your second team was worth a million as well it would take well over a 1000 games for rotation to make sense. much better having a 2 million team

    Does the Hamsik SBC ever expire? I started it last night and had nearly 30k in the bank but I'm now broke after only completing Atalanta and Benevento. That's despite the fact that I packed inform Lovren in my rewards for Atalanta. I'm afraid after pumping a decent amount of coins into it it will expire before I complete it. I anticipate it will take me a while to complete at this rate.

    'No Expiry' from what I can see

    I've not bought a fitness card in ages. I have 70 gold squad fitness cards to hand, all thanks to SBCs and other pack rewards...i can't use them quicker than I need them.

    I was selling mine for around 700 coins a pop at the weekend. I’ve something like 1500 individual ones

    Who's he linked with other than EPL teams like Liverpool and Chelsea? Dunno if his price will increase if he moves to another EPL club

    Bought all his cards for less than 2k most at 1700. I've 30 off him. Surely there'll be some spike in his price. Im not the best trader so I'm trying to pre-empt stuff.

    Don't think they will be but even if they are it be only a 100 or so and again you take 100 out for tax it prob won't be worth it in my opinion.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,541 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Although having 30 of them you might be able to dictate the price a bit and run a small profit

    Why is it things go stale after a while with a particular formation that for ages you thought was brilliant,I've just gone back to 451 and am kicking ass again and qualified for wkend LGE first time,having previously been 433,no doubt this will go stale in time too and I'll have to change again

    Hell I’ve gone from 4-3-3 to 4-4-2 to 4-1-2-1-2 (2) to 4-3-2-1 to my current one 4-1-2-1-2(1).
    I went from Div 3 to Div 7 losing about 20-25 matches before reversing the trend. Now back up to Div 4 and just narrowly missing out on promotion to div 3.
    Used to be worse before in older games Your striker would go on a 10-20 scoring streak and then fall to pieces.
    It was like having your very own Fernando Torres. You start off with the Liverpool version then one night you go to play and he’s turned into the Chelsea version where he couldn’t buy a goal.
