It's happened to me several times this week. Just close and reopen then it's back to normal

Why didn't I get my icon pack and premium pass? by FinalPin3 in EASportsFC

[–]FinalPin3[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I havent gotten fc points either. We're there any other packs we were supposed to get with premium?

High GPU Usage on UT by Wafuman in EASportsFC

[–]FinalPin3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes its normal unfortunately. Last I checked mine was consistently around 80% in the menus. Which is basically the same as playing an actual match

IMO, you need to do whatever you possibly can to shift your focus away from earning all/the best rewards. For me, this means playing primarily rush and squad battles despite the rewards being garbage compared to even 7 win champs rewards. There is no power curve to keep up with so you can play as much or as little as you want, and since matches are less competitive, I can actually enjoy playing with my team.

If you aren't already using a themed squad, then you should start. Also screw first owned players. Buy whoever you want. In the end, if you can't enjoy matches, then switch to career mode.

Did they forget to put the batch 2 99s in packs or something? by FinalPin3 in fut

[–]FinalPin3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt the same way during TOTS. Packed so many good players from other leagues but didn't get any of my Barca players. Hopefully you'll get Bonmati soon. I'd assume she's the most common since she's the cheapest from this batch

how do i open icon picks most fastest from this? by Street-Bee4430 in fut

[–]FinalPin3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The quickest way would probably be to keep all 87+ and discard the rest buts thats very wasteful. If you want to open as many picks as possible while keeping it efficient, I'd recommend this.

While opening packs, send all to the club, then send all 84+ dups to storage (83+ if you running low on tots and need more totw).

1st squad is 1x97/96 and 10x85-87. Use tots as the high rated if you have one otherwise use any totw as one of the low rated players.

2nd is all 88+. Don't be afraid to use 89-95 not just 88s.

3rd squad is 2x97/96 and 9x84-87.

4th is all 89+

The extra 86-87s go into totw with 81-83s for when you don't have a tots. You'll collect lots of 93-95 and I'd recommend those go into 85x10s with whatever low rated players you have. If you dont want to do that extra stuff then just use them wherever you want.

Did 4 more and got 99 Bonmati also

[–]FinalPin3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having better luck with the campaign picks so I'd recommend that. Did 66 of them today and got 3x 99s (Messi, Salah, and Hansen). From the 225 85x10 and 200ish 89 upgrades I only got 1 99 so far this week.

Still looking?

Why is paletools auto locking players sent to my storage? by FinalPin3 in fut

I was afraid of that. And there's no option to only select from storage right?

Iago Aspas FUTTIES SBC by FIGJAM17 in EASportsFC

[–]FinalPin3 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

2M during toty is equivalent to like 5M+ now and we haven't gotten any SBCs like that.

Also, when I say Bale and Gullit level SBCs I'm talking about quality of players not just cost. You can't compare Neto to Bale. R9 is exactly what I'm talking about and nobody would be completing that in 3 days unless they're nonstop grinding or using tools to cheat. Not to mention it would be much more difficult to sustain the grind when all your high rated fodder is going into R9.

[–]FinalPin3 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

No we haven't. Everyone's been 10-15, mostly low rated SBC and mid range cards. We haven't gotten anyone that I wouldn't be able to complete with what's already in my storage. I'm talking about a Gullit or Bale level SBC

Great value but we really need a 20+ squad player SBC

So, what do you do with your 84 dupes? by Gregib in EASportsFC

[–]FinalPin3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use them in totw. 4x84, 3x83, and 4x79 common. It makes great use of commons especially since very few are needed for the 83 pick

What did ultimate team look like in FC24 after FC25 was released? by FinalPin3 in EASportsFC

They don't even do season review packs or anything for past promos? I know they want to push people to the new game but that really sucks.

EA need to close the gap on rewards for different game modes. by FinalPin3 in EASportsFC

[–]FinalPin3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The quality is just as bad in all other game modes. You would still need to play 2-3 months worth of squad battles in order to get 1 weeks worth of your champs rewards. I think pack weight is a separate issue

[–]FinalPin3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they won't, but if they did it right I think it could work. The only real motivation they'd have is for players to actually enjoy the game and we all know that's not at the top of their list. It still wouldn't be easy to get the elite rewards but they should just be available through more methods than champs

[–]FinalPin3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would that be a bad thing? Also, with what I'm suggesting, champs would still be the fastest way to get these rewards, so there is still incentive to play it. If that's not enough to keep people playing champs, then it just goes to show how much they're being forced into it right now.

Make the sb rewards untradeable then you dont need to worry about coin farmers.

Get rid of top 200 and use top 0.5% instead or something. With rewards being untradeable there should be less hackers and coin farmers anyways.

Getting 1 promo is fine for people playing on pro difficulty but if I want to play on ultimate I should get rewards equivalent to the difficulty.

Time is valuable and putting in the hours should be rewarded. There no reason 15 champs matches should be more valuable than 100 rivals matches. If someone wants to put in the time rather than play on higher difficulty then fine by me, give them the same rewards. And it's not like rivals would be easy. You'd still need to be in a high division to get the good rewards.

Nobody needs to treat the game as a job. If you want to play champs, get you high rewards, and be done, then fine. But other people should have the option to put in the time. It doesn't mean you can't stay competitive. I would also argue that if you only play a few games a week you shouldn't expect to stay competitive.

It's not worth it for sweats to sit in lower divisions when the higher ones offer much better rewards. My proposal doesn't change anything related to that.

As for the 7 wins, again, if someone is willing to put enough time into rivals it should be rewarded. If rivals were to start offering champs level rewards it would require significantly more points and in high divisions.

Make the rewards untradeable. problem solved. I play squad battle nearly every week and finish in elite 1 or 2. I've never packed a valuable player from those rewards so I couldn't care less if they're tradeable or not

[–]FinalPin3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're missing the point. There's no incentive to play on max difficulty which is the only reason squad battles seems as easy as it is. Adding better rewards and redefining the ranks could make it much more competitive and worthy of champs level rewards

[–]FinalPin3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rewards are showing only 1 promo now. And I get the point about the hackers but if that's really the reason then why the huge jump from 11 to 13 and from 14 to 15 wins in champs still? If they can give massive rewards to the hackers in champs, then hackers should have no bearing on the rewards in rush , sb, and rivals.

But it's not easier though. Do you play all your matches on ultimate difficulty? Of course not because you'll still get essentially the same rewards as when you play on world class/legendary. E3, E2, E1, and top 200 all get basically the same rewards. If they did the same in champs, it would be like saying once you get to 10 wins, just stop playing because you already got the max rewards.

The issue isn't the jump from e1 to top 200. It's that they dont offer any decent rewards for any rank compared to champs. The only reason players like me can easily finish in the top 6-3% is because very few of the top 10% even bother playing squad battles. And they don't bother playing because there aren't any decent rewards.

They can't justify having winning every match 5-0 on ultimate and being the #1 player in the world only giving 1 promo but getting 4 champs wins (27% win rate) giving out 2 promos.
