World Cup stuff is here
They're basically RTTF cards but for the WC, plus there's Heroes/Icons etc.

Marquez as my World Cup hero pre-order, meh.
Prime pack 2 is out.
Nowt special for me.
Without grindable menu content, like league SBC's, the game is over.
Nep's videos continue to amuse me. Haven't logged into the actual game for weeks now but still watching them.
Ashley Young SBC
3 minutes in and he's on fire.
Ive just signed in and can see, you can get a World Cup Vieira for 40 swap tokens. Seems tempting. Not sure if it is still possible to complete though
It's getting to the time of the year where I usually start getting the itch and start wishing I'd bought the game earlier.
Last year I started post TOTY and still managed to get arguably the best team I've had in any cycle. What gets me is to get the absolute "Ultimate team" you have to hit it like Yev does every few versions and he smashes TOTY. However the silly amount your team can upgrade just during TOTS means as long as you start before April you should be grand.
However, no signs of the itch yet this year.
I gave this a go and its been fun. You can still get 40 tokens. You have about 12 days left. You have to do it in a golden goal mode and you can do 60 games per day. You need 6 wins with players from all of the world cup nations. Ive got about 30 tokens so far. Most fun I've had in Fifa for a long time.Originally Posted by SincereTheRebel
The 60 games per day, sounds like a lot. But it really isn't. You can run through them in just under 6 hours. Ive found myself annoyed that I don't have any games left.

Yeah the fact they bought into the community going for golden goal has been a big win from them. Made some of the grind worth it last year.
@Gray Fox, same here still not got it nor really got the urge. I keep up with the content/creators to see whats going on but its not pulling me in. Even on sale like it is now.
Another Ronaldo flashback. No clubs so terrible links and priced at 500k. Madness.
This is absolutely madness.
I'm a twit
There's a generally accepted rule of golden goal by the community. Most will quit after you score your goal. So those 60 games whizz by. It can get very toxic though. Some will score first and then pause for you, basically telling you to quit and fuck off. If you don't, all manner of shithousery begins.
The 60 games Sincere refers to are actually golden goal in the game, with no need for anyone to quit as the game just ends when the first goal goes in.
That's a shame. Some of the post-game messages from when you didn't comply used to be quite entertaining.
Yeah they were but its nice they bought into it. Makes life a lot easier.
Anyone know if Ronaldo is still in packs as a Man Utd player and if so, how long that'll be the case for?
Don’t know 100% but based on his piece being on the 70k range I would think so.
He could be dropped at any point though.
Cheers Danny, I started a new game a week ago and I've ground to 85k coins and I want a clean card version of him before he moves to an unlinkable club.
Prime Gaming pack out.
Five more tokens and Vieira is mine
Seems like EA are just gonna make us play swaps for the rest of the game cycle...
Ok decided yo give WL a go and ive won games, but my record is all losses. Glitch shit.
if you have any intention of playing the game down the line/toty and can get on the web app I would recommend the daily log ins that started yesterday.
Rewards are nice. Single bronze card a day
It looks like it all counted in the end. Managed to scrap 51 points in the end, even though it says I went 0-20
I saw something about that on reddit a while ago. I assumed (I know) that they fixed it
League SBC''s are back and the grind is a cracking one.
What is the method? Buy bronze packs. Sell the value. Keep bronze that are needed for SBC league. Keep the bronze that dont sell and do the bronze to silver upgrade. Then Silvers to gold. Repeat?
Sort of. I'm selling everything from the bronze packs that sells (no matter whether it's needed for a league SBC or not) then using the cards that don't in the bronze > silver, then silver > gold upgrades.
Essentially the only two segments that cost are the Lib/Sud one and the Fra 1/Ned 1 one. It takes a while, but you can get almost enough gold cards for the latter and almost enough Sud/Lib cards for the former from both of the upgrades. You could save the cards for these from what you pack from bronze packs, but you'll be sat on so many coins doing nothing from clubs all over those leagues if you do that, so I figured I'd save the untradeables and buy the cards I need to finish each off when I have a decent amount for each club. If that makes any sense.
I've made about 150k since last night and sat on a fuck tonne of rare bronzes that'll sell for 500 each when the next Icon SBC turns up.
Sounds like a plan? How many bronze packs do you open until you put them in SBC? Ive done what ive said and my coin balance hasn't moved, but ive done the SBCs once while selling everything ive packed.
I try to open enough Bronze packs to get 110 commons to fire into the upgrade SBC so I can open 10 silver upgrades at a time.
This grind is so good I'm now seriously considering doing that rip-off Ronaldo SBC.
Yeah agreed. Ive increase my coins balance slightly plus I have a lot of duplicate high-rated cars ready to put into an sbc. I may do stoichkov.
That's the winter and winter premium league SBC's done 5 times each for the objective rewards, so I can just focus on the premium one now.
I think only an 87 card needed and Ronaldo will be done too.

How's the coin balance with this? Fairly static or are you making a bit off it too?
I spent a few more coins than I would have done before to finish the 5x completion off, but I had about 140k of coins before these landed and have 330k now. High point was 370k.
Also sat on about 500 rare bronzes too, which I'm going to make fortunes from when they bang in price.
my coin balance hasnt moved too much. About 100k, but I can see how this pay offs. I also have saved my rare bronzes and doing what Yevrah has done. Every so often, I pack a 85+ card, which gets stored in the club if untradetable. Waiting to be used for an SBC. It takes time to do, but its worth it.
BPM is running out of juice a bit so might move to just doing the Premium Winter League SBC over and over.
Got bought this for xmas so I guess I am in. Havent fired it up yet but I have been keeping an eye on SBC's and doing some trading so have a decent base to start from.
That Gullit SBC looks like a no brainer.
Yeah he looks tidy. Different in-game stats so won't play the same, but a cool card. There's Clauss/Randolph which you could knock off super quick.
Nep has a "speed run" RTG video showing how quickly you can rattle through from zero to a decent team. Nice idea.
I've been grinding this a fair bit recently but not pulled anything top drawer. Couple of Chiellini's and a Chong. Got Abedi Pele from the Hero pack but he doesn't really make my team. I've got a pretty good team but I can't bring myself to commit to spending on a player only for their value to tank. Currently only have gold Hakimi as my only tradeable player in my first XI
I played the trial over a few weeks long enough to keep access to the webapp so I am in a decent spot.
Will check out that Nep video to see where to start.
I started again 3 weeks ago (as the other account had been spoilt by some FIFA Points) and it's ridiculous how quickly one can build a decent team. I haven't even had any decent pack luck really.
Anyone any idea whether the best of is still in packs and what it contains? Can't see any reference to it anywhere, but pretty sure some content creators have packed Sule after 6pm today.
Reddit reckons they are but don’t think there is a known list
Cheers Danny.
In other news and with BPM having been profitable enough to save any rare bronzes that go for less than 550 I think I now have more in my club than I've ever had. A quick check on Futbin suggests there have been 1,800 released to this point (I guess some will be out of packs - death, legal reasons etc.), but I have 751 of them now, or 41.7%.
Given the league SBC's are there for another 19 days I'd like to think I could hit 1,500.
Jesus
I was doing some BPM and need to do a bit more to support the lower of the league SBCSs. Need to do that one three more times for the full 10.
Not sure who is investing in what but 84s are cheap again. I usually try pick up a stack of them when they hit <2.8k. They went for 5k when that 86+ hero came out. I got normal Kewell or WC Kohler in that so took the latter based on value/rating.
Haven't invested in anything yet, but I feel like I should so keep the tips coming Danny.
Just took the three week old team into Weekend League qualifying and we made it, just. Played some ludicrous opponents (for my poor standard at least) in the first few games and also got a disconnect that the game blamed me for which left us 2-6 after eight games. Won the ninth 5-1 to take it to the final match. Which had the worst connection I've ever experienced in a game, pausing for 5 seconds at a time then furiously catching up. We somehow took a 3-0 lead into half time, but then went 4-3 down. He's equaliser coming with me having no control over the play at all. The constant press helped us equalise to take it to extra time where we ran out 7-4 winners with that unlinkable Ronaldo card coming off the bench to score a hat-trick. Legend.
No idea what playing weekend league on Sunday night is like but hopefully wins are given away a lot as people rush through it (didn't get any in qualifying). 6 wins and I'd be delighted.
Rare Bronze Watch
829 out of 1,800 collected. 46%.
Tapped out on 7 wins in the end, which was enough to get some decent fodder from the picks and store a couple of packs for TOTY. 9 next week and that'll be the Weekend League plus objective complete too.
That base icon is luring me in, despite be knowing its going to be shit
Still, waiting on some type of Panini sticker album type of thing, that tracks all of this for you in the game, with rewards of course.
All the 2k games have this. Well not the panini type thing but a "collection".
Pretty cool way to earn more cards.
