The abuse I’m getting for a VVD-OTW Varane combo is hilarious 🤣

also, if you get a red card in a friendly, they get suspended….but they also don’t recover from the red card during a friendly they miss either? That feels stupid…

Nah just bought him as soon as he released, started off around 350k and then crept up until he went extinct.

Looking through the FUT Champs rewards, if you qualify and lose all 20 games, you end up with:

- 2 x 1 of 3 player picks

- 1 x premium gold players pack

- 1 x prime gold players pack

- 1 x jumbo premium gold pack

- 500 qualification points

- 10k coins

That's similar to what you'd get for Gold 1 last year FFS!

Yeah noticed the red card thing this afternoon.

Playing on PS4 today, and damn but it's way more toxic than PS5. Just trying to do the Camavinga obj's and the amount of people time wasting and watching celebrations in friendlies is just frustrating.

My aim will be the 44pts rank, so going 8-12, it gives:

2x 1-4 Red Player Picks

1x 100k pack

1x 3xTOTW pack

35k

But that's balanced by the fact that you need 1500 points from rivals and at least a 5-4 record in the play offs to qualify so way less people will be playing wl.

The rewards also had to go up to make up for the reduction in rivals rewards.

Osmosis Jones · 02-10-2021 5:48pm

The weirdest part for me is that there's no reward for going 20-0, the highest rank is 16-4

Also fingers crossed for a good player SBC today

Not bad actually, and very doable. Especially later on in the year where it won’t be just the top tier players playing.

02-10-2021 6:41pm

I think the play offs is broken.

I went from 0-1 to 3-1, then from 3-2 to 4-2 and its telling me I have 14 points.

4 for a win, one for a loss. It doesnt even make sense that I'd have 14 with 4 games left.

I need two wins from my last four despite the fact that would be 6-4.

I should be on 18 points now unless I'm missing something here. There isnt a combination to even get 14 after 6.

One guy backed out so maybe I lost the game for that and didnt get the 4 points.

I might raise a ticket.

Cant seem to make that picture the correct position.

There's a bit of profit in it alright. A fair few going for 2k. Had a Norwegian bronze sell for 7.5k today and Dan Kelly from Drogheda got me 10k a few minutes ago. French managers also going for 5k.

Seems to be all about volume. Need to be opening a lot of packs to make it worthwhile.

BrentMused · 03-10-2021 12:08am

Koulibaly is so good.

He's just everywhere at the back for me and always in the right place at the right time.

Only 25k for a player of that quality is madness!

bigron2109 · 03-10-2021 12:56pm

How long did it take people to get access to the transfer market on the App? Have been playing the game since Friday nights, Saturday and Sunday .

Gyan84 · 03-10-2021 1:02pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117970366#Comment_117970366

I've been playing since the first day of the trial and only got access last night. I didn't list cards up on the market every day though which is probably why it took so long.

bigron2109 · 03-10-2021 1:11pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117970383#Comment_117970383

Thanks for that. I’ve listed a few cards and bought a few too. Some pain having to wait for it.

martyos121 · 03-10-2021 1:45pm

Just pulled IF Barella from an SBC pack, easily the best player I’ve gotten yet and he’s worth a nice bit. Tempted to sell right away but I’d never spend that amount of coins on a player this early on so I might as well fit him into the team. 😁

EDIT: Next pack, Paul Pogba. I’m 100% doing the lotto this week.

03-10-2021 2:09pm

Is anyone else finding they're getting constant button delay?.

Im on Xbox(maybe PS servers are better)

Surely we're all getting it seeing the size of Ireland.

I had zero input delay during the trial. Everything was bang on and I made a post here to that effect.

So its 100% the server end of things.

As an aside I raised a ticket about my missing play off win, said I'd go to 1 game remaining as well as I may not need the points and in the second last game the opponent tipped off, scored an OG and quit.

Toney has become pretty ineffective for me already given the ridiculous standard of teams I now face every game.

After 50 games he was nearly 1:1 and now after 100 games he's 1:2.

Ironically I was playing more balanced teams in the play offs but in D4 you're not playing someone without a few players worth 100k.

I cant move past stage 2 of D4.

I'm going 1:1 so haven't being able to progress past step two(this level doesnt need a streak but a loss puts you back a step and its 3 forward steps to move on).

Josey Wales · 03-10-2021 2:20pm

I got a TOTW card (Smith Rowe) from my SB rewards today. Should I just sell it now?

martyos121 · 03-10-2021 3:27pm

Would love some feedback on this if anyone has an idea how to improve on it, coins are tight though, won’t have a lot left if I buy these concept players and make TAA permanent. It’s a big step up from the team I was using up until now, felt I had to fit Pogba and Barella in somehow.

BrentMused · 03-10-2021 6:01pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117970835#Comment_117970835

Koulibaly for De Ligt would be a big step up.

He's absolutely excellent and only 25k.

Depending on coins, Spinazzola for Sandro (or Theo Hernandez if you can splash out).

Gyan84 · 03-10-2021 6:43pm

Griezmann, Bailey and Delaney otw added to packs today.

POTM Antonio doesn't seem to be happening 😕

martyos121 · 03-10-2021 6:56pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117971484#Comment_117971484

Cheers, I can’t fit Koulibaly in because I really like 10 chem on everyone and Napoli don’t have any decent keepers or left backs for a green link. I might look at upgrading De Ligt-Szcesny to Handanovic-Skriniar though.

Apart from that, I just packed Aubameyang so he’s in now for Firmino and Partey in for Fred to keep the chem up. Also got Spinazzola in at left back, good shout on him. Really pleased with the team now.

Calvin · 03-10-2021 7:32pm

Did the 2x 100k pack objectives there for squad battles… a OTW Locatelli and duplicate Suarez for my troubles. Then spent the rest of the points on the 2x mega packs and 25k packs but **** all from those, an 86 Hummels the only one of note.

awec · 03-10-2021 10:59pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117971874#Comment_117971874

OTW Locatelli isn't even that good. I have him, meh. :(

CDM pretty limited value since you have to play a very specific formation to get the most of him.

awec · 03-10-2021 11:47pm

What is with people in rivals quitting straight away as soon as it starts?

Sudden Valley · 03-10-2021 11:50pm

Perhaps your team is so much better than there's. If they have reached a checkpoint there is no downside in quitting, probably don't want to waste there time on a game they might not win.

awec · 04-10-2021 12:06am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117972781#Comment_117972781

Definitely not the case, their team is better than mine in both rating and chemistry.

awec · 04-10-2021 12:12am

Anyway, Rivals, what a frustrating mode.

Playing Div10, won 3/4 games, thinking this is ok, my team doesn't suck. Get promoted and in Div9 I play 4/5 games and I get absolutely bummed in every match, except one where I fluked a goal in the first 5 and the guy instantly quit (ignoring the 2 or 3 games where people just insta-guit before a ball was kicked).

Calvin · 04-10-2021 12:16am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117972668#Comment_117972668

Yeah, he’ll go nicely alongside my OTW Berghuis in the awful OTW collection I’ve got going on.

Could be doing the loyalty glitch for the foundation SBCs. They should be doing it in friendlies as it doesn't cost any contracts.

Osmosis Jones · 04-10-2021 9:56am

Here's the team atm, same formation in-game, gonna try to play a classic 2 up top big man small man with lots of crosses. LM-LB are the most obvious upgrades once I've got the coins.
