FIFA 20: Sponsored by VOLTA Football, apparently.

Back to your comment from the other day Mahow, I've now been playing online again to do the German league Milestone and Orsic and this must be the worst state the game has ever been in since I got back into it.

My players all feel like they're wading through treacle, just less treacle for the better ones and it takes an age to get a shot or move off. Added to that the list of things that are broken in the game and it really is a steaming pile of shit.

Crossing? Broken.
Heading? Broken.
Player Switching? Broken.
Tackling? Broken.
Drop Back Effectiveness? Broken.

There's no chance shooting is any better post this patch either. What a shitshow.

I thought shooting was better after a couple of games but it's really not.

I'll finish the Serie A icon swap but I think I'll skip the Ligue 1. I only need 20 as I'm going for Del Piero.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

A guy quit 10 minutes into the last game of TOTY Ronaldo's loan

I now have to use fucking Belotti or someone for the icon swap.

Edit: Lasagna, ugh.

[Danny]

I made sure I didn’t use his last one when I did it. Just incase I want him in friendlies.

Please getting a +2 on Pace is nice. Decent all round upgrade. Now for them to in three more.

[Yevrah]

That's Orsic done and 61% of the Bundesliga Milestone objectives in the process.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I've not bothered with Orsic at all.

I'm done with all the icon swaps bar the Ligue 1 which I don't think I'll bother with. I only have 7 crap golds from the league and this patch is so crap.

[Danny]

I managed to smash Orsic out in a session on Saturday and then other than a few SBs for rewards Sunday I haven’t touched it since.

[Yevrah]

I am getting somewhat fatigued with all this. The thought of grinding out another 87 wins for 1/2 of Vieira is not a good one.

[thommo]

Opened up my 2 red picks for FUT Champions and ended up with 2 very average selections - 83 Portu and 84 Guerreiro.

I then went through all remaining packs for FUT Champions and Division Rivals - 2 Mega Packs, 2 Rare Electrum Player Packs, 2 Prime Gold Player Packs and a Rare Players Pack. Not one board in any of them.

[Danny]

I took tradeable and got Mourinho from my packs and not much else.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I'm taking tradeable but waiting until tomorrow to open them.

[SincereTheRebel]

Lol at goretka IF still extinct because of a 200k price range.

[thommo]

Finished off Orsic last night after a few games. I realised I had been making another error throughout this week - I thought Alli had a 4* weak foot and had been forcing the ball to him to get the goals for the objective. As it turns out, complete waste of time.

I also finished off the Icon Swaps objective - Ligue 1 turned out to be a breeze thanks to Storyline Aouar and POTM Osimhen, who is still so clinical. I've entered Weekend League again - 14 wins will be the aim.

Hope you didn’t try pick him up for that. Down at 140 already

That Greenwood fuck

[Danny]

Akanji ftw

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I need that Greenwood.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

That Tonali is batshit but annoying considering he's the league SBC.

[Danny]

That Odergaard set of objectives looks like fun.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

And Moise Kean SBC.

Card looks great on the base stats but then you see 3*/3* and Med/Med.

[SincereTheRebel]

They can't upgrade SM and WF?

[Danny]

They can, and did on Diego Costa, but chose not to I guess

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Down for anyone else?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I can skip 3 so goodbye FUT Champs, Ligue 1 and something else online.

[Danny]

Lots of people on Reddit saying it. I am still at work

[Yevrah]

Pros

The Odegard objectives are cool
Akanji is awesome
All icon swaps available now

Cons

I don't understand the Odegard sbc for a Rare Players Pack. Unless you put the 87 Odegaard into it there aren't enough players available to complete it, surely?
Not enough players in the season objectives rewards
Moises Kean is borderline unusable due to his workrates and weak foot/skill moves

[Yevrah]

And I'm in on Xbox.

[thommo]

Really good content overall. My one gripe being what Yev has already mentioned - there should be another batch of players in the season progress in my opinion. Kean isn't great but the value is fine for an 87 ST from the Prem. I probably wont bother with him though as I'd rather do Jovic.

The Odegaard SBC is just there for those players who don't think the 87 is worth their time. They can do all the objectives and then just trade them in for a 50k pack. Not a brilliant return but I'm sure some whales will do it due to having a much better squad already.

[Yevrah]

Trading in an 80, 84, 85 and 87 for a Rare Players Pack, having gone to the trouble of completing 11 objectives to get them all is insanity.

[Yevrah]

Oh and another con, it appears untradeable packs for SBC's are now the norm, which is wank.

[Yevrah]

So many of these cards are either silvers or common golds. I'm going to be hammering the shit out of upgrade packs.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I still can't get on.

[Yevrah]

Er lads...

[thommo]

Fuck off Yev, what is it this time?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Tonali, Rodrigo, Greenwood or Joao Felix.

They're the most expensive Future Stars.

Or the bastard got himself a prime icon...

[Yevrah]

I've grinded and grinded all year, opening hundreds of packs, kept first owner, and I've finally got him.

My favourite ever player on FIFA. I let out a "yes" when I saw the Barca badge.

[Yevrah]

In before Nep, but I wonder if Gold Pack method isn't seriously viable now.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Finally in.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Cavani from the untradeable SBC pack.

Also got Vertonghen, Pepe and Djene from MM.

[Danny]

Should have bought Greenwood earlier for 1m. That would have been easy profit

[Yevrah]

The prices of these players are nuts. Some of them are genuinely shit too.

[Yevrah]

@Merse have you bought the game?

[SincereTheRebel]

The pack weight being <1℅ keeps the prices of some cards stupid high

[Danny]

Started some of the SB's last night to coincide with Odegaard/objectives. 4 Dutch wins down while unlocking his various 80 and 84.

Then moved onto rivals. I have a 11 first owner - 9 Prem players team. So that will nail two objectives. 84 Odegaard will come off the bench in those games to work towards his 85.

Thank god I only need 9 swaps for Zambrotta.

[Yevrah]

Still don’t know who I’m going to take.

Done 2/6 of the Argentina objective and 4/5 of the Coronavirus one.

[Yevrah]

Been doing a shed load of league SBC's. Packed nothing until this morning when I got Aguero from Atletico Madrid's pack. He only goes for 60k.

[thommo]

Get a stream up if you're going to keep doing it. I've gone through the MLS again, packed nothing apart from two 79 IFs.

[Yevrah]

Streaming. But I warn you. I have no packs stacked and there will be some squad battles....

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

From the Future Stars challenge.

Untradeable but a cracking first owner RB.
