They’ve basically turned Ultimate Team into a part time job to be able to compete. The idea of it is great, but the way you have to play it is terrible.
Entertainment? Is that what'd you'd call it?
How'd you go about selling you coins btw?
That's why I've given up and moved to career mode, much more enjoyable.They’ve basically turned Ultimate Team into a part time job to be able to compete. The idea of it is great, but the way you have to play it is terrible.

Yeah, I was Division 3 too, and not really going anywhere but if you miss playing it for a couple of weeks you come back to Mbappe and Eusebio up front against you every game. Not to mention having to play every single game against a version of Raphael Varane that is basically a wall in front of goal. It’s just not fun.I think you have to simply be happy with whatever level you reach, I'm a Division 3/4 player and to be honest I am more than happy with that. Il never reach Division 1 or likely 2 and I am really not that bothered
Update: Got Fifa 20, but yes, yes it is that bad.Heard Fifa 21 is crap on the switch can anyone attest to this? Was thinking of getting it since my PS4 been stuck in safe mode since 21 came out so haven’t had a chance to play it on there
Can anyone give advice on what usually happens with market prices during TOTS? For example, I want to buy Kante and Mbappe, I have £700k and a base Sanchez icon to sell (going for around £300k right now).
So I’m currently still around £100k short, but I’m sure I’ll get enough in my saved packs to get up to that amount. I have been saving those packs to get more of a chance of getting a TOTS card (I know I won’t), But will the likes of Mbappe rise or fall during TOTS, and should I sell Sanchez before any falling in price?

Prices are generally lower during tots and go back up after albeit not a full rebound. Kante might go as low as 150k on ps4 and Mbappe 800k but they won't fall much more than that.
If you are looking to buy players, then definitely worth waiting for the crash as you will get huge discounts on players. Prices have already been dropping significantly.Playing Fifa and FUT after years. Those who play this regularly, what sort of market crash, if any, are you expecting once the TOTY cards are out? Is it worth waiting for the crash, if it comes?
Yeah, saw that. They actually haven’t developed it since Fifa 19. What’s criminal is that they still sell it for the standard £44.99+ Price. Greedy cnuts.You pretty much have FIFA 21 then, through virtue of having FIFA 20. I remember reading this description from the Nintendo eStore around launch:
“FIFA 21 Legacy Edition will feature the same gameplay innovation from FIFA 20 without any new development or significant enhancements.“
Actually scandalous, when you think about it.

So you’d recommend waiting further till TOTY players are available in packs? I just don’t want to miss the opportunity and prices start going back up.
Waiting till at least the first TOTY packs are out makes sense. That’s around as cheap as it’ll get before the bounce. Don’t forget the TOTY players get released slowly each week. Normally GKs first then week after Defenders etc.So you’d recommend waiting further till TOTY players are available in packs? I just don’t want to miss the opportunity and prices start going back up.

I can’t remember exactly the phased process but it’s normally GKs and defenders first. Then midfielders week after. Then forwards final week.Is it per week, that’s really drawn out, but I shouldn’t be surprised. I haven’t played Ultimate Team since Fifa 17, so it’s been a case of learning as I go this year.
They've already dropped so much which is why I'm not sure if I should wait more or not. The likes of Kante, VVD, Mane, Salah etc in the PL have really dropped over the months.For sure. Once toty are in packs people will be opening packs to the tune of millions per hour, so the supply will drive the prices down. Personally I don't think they'll drop too much more but the market has been crazy this year so you never know. I'd wait, when they release toty attackers is when prices are likely to be cheapest.
Any chance that this is still a thing?
PS4 versions going much, much cheaper than the PS5 version at the minute so would seem silly to get the new console version if the free upgrade is still possible.

TOTY is a bit dead. Attackers and an objective Suarez. No SBC's at all
Flasback Ribery has just been released. Way too expensive IMO. Around 800-900kSurely they’re going to add something for SBC’s. Surprised they released the attackers first. I’ll probably open all my saved packs tonight, then when I get feck all, I’ll just buy all the players I was going to get anyway.

Managed to qualify for the broadcast event in North America(top 6 secured).
Very happy. Still disappointed with the path EA have taken with the game.
@Eddy_JukeZ @LonelyFire Can i ask your advice guys? Ive got a largely untradeable team snd im trying to think of the formation to use. I haven't got ANY wide players.
C.Ronaldo and UCL Muriel.
Then Sif Pogba, mid Pirlo, mid Ballack
Duncan 83, Mid Gattusso, Kante
Then a back 4 of Mendy, Gomez, Virgil and Semedo.
I started very well with 442(2) before i packed Pogba, Kante, Gatusso and Pirlo. At this point i was using IF A.Gomez and Dybala on wings, Ballack and Ducan CDM . Now ive been screwed over in the two icon SBCs i did with and another untradeable DM in Kante.
Should i bench the above? I finished awfully in WL with pogba and pirlo wide cams in a 4222 or 4312. Any detailed tactical ways i should be playing? (See drop back, 2 depth and width etc?). Should i try and get some wingers in and drop Gatusso and Duncan? Ronaldo is untradeable and i only have 100k coins left . I didn't play the game for 2 months and then i came back briefly and packed Ronaldo in the 83x25 which i did. I got 15 wins this WL but like i say i was 10w 3L to beging with.

Even Dybala's new card?Definitely try and get some wingers in for 442. Dybala is too slow out wide. Gomez is fine there, but not ideal. Haven't looked at the market lately, so not sure what options are there with 100k coins.
You can just go balanced-balanced for tactics.
