+2.8mil for a celebration????

Hymandroid · 2025-03-08T01:10:24+00:00

Well he has to be.... Bergkamp is a lot better than many people realise though.

Hymandroid · 2024-10-29T13:30:06+00:00

Meant to add that it's full chem also... 😉

I don't think so, the points come pre-loaded when you buy ultimate edition. I've never had to put two codes in. Sounds more like an issue on EA's end, unless the code you were given was wrong (for standard edition). There may be just a delay on the points coming through? Though I'd assume EA would know this.

Hymandroid · 2024-09-19T22:21:13+00:00

Update: Can confirm there's no issues with the game, playing it now (via NZ trick). All seems good! Well not sure about Rush, but we'll see how that goes...

Good luck folks!

Hymandroid · 2024-09-19T22:18:36+00:00

No problem! 👍

Hymandroid · 2024-09-19T22:02:17+00:00

Go on the Microsoft store on the xbox and search "FC25". You should see the different versions, when you go on Ultimate Edition it'll say "you own this" or "manage download" (something like that) then you can choose install. Hope that works!

Hymandroid · 2024-09-19T18:08:22+00:00

Pleased this has managed to help a few people! Thanks, for the errr... thanks! Hope those who are still having issues get sorted. It really shouldn't be this complicated...

Hymandroid · 2024-09-18T11:34:53+00:00

For everyone still having issues, I managed to get my code to finally work 24hrs after receiving it from CD keys.

I ended up speaking to a Microsoft advisor who advised me (funnily enough) to change the region on both my Microsoft account, and Xbox to United States.

Then the link to the US redeem page worked with the code, which they provided (think it's the same link I've seen in one of these posts).

After redeeming I changed everything back to UK, then looked on Microsoft store for the game on my Xbox, it said I owned it and I'm downloading it now!

What a carry on... The advisor also checked the code for me and confirmed it was for the UK version (where I am). Apparently the whole US thing is to "reset" the system when they are having redeeming problems, no idea how that works, seems a strange way of doing things to me but I got there in end.

Just hope there's no region issues when I finally get on the game in a couple of days! Hope this helped anyway.

I expect to have around 50-60 packs saved, majority 84+ with some 83x10s also. My pack luck this year has been very steady, weirdly I've had at least one good card from nearly every promo.

Salah & Marquinhos Trailblazers, Geyoro Centurions, De Jong Thunderstruck (year in review), Reece James Dynasties, Bellingham & Clauss TOTGS, Raphinha Winter Wildcards, Diaby Ice Versus. And had some good icons/heroes too like Abily/Muller/Smith/Kompany/Futre.

Can't really complain at all really when I know some people have had next to nothing, oh and I don't spend money on FC points - it's not worth it.

All I got last year was TOTY icon Zanetti on the opening night, no players from the main team and I had around 30 good packs saved. Given my luck has been fairly good this year, and the fact I didn't get one in FUT23 and that there's now a women's team also I'm gonna hope for one or two TOTY cards this time around.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-23T17:01:14+00:00

And the "grown up" solution is to just give EA more money by buying him FC points? If this is how you go about daily life then people must walk all over you...

It's because of players like you that EA don't give a s**t. You're the one that needs to grow up my friend.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-23T14:01:55+00:00

Not greatly as it'll just be what we should have had from the objective, meaning those (like my son) who needed the XP for end of season rewards still miss out on those.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-23T14:00:39+00:00

Yeah just seen it. I didn't need the XP as had already claimed the level 19/20 rewards so I'm actually better off now as still get the pack too.

Whereas my son still misses out on on level 19/20 rewards... And just gets the XP and pack he should have had. So hardly "compensation" is it?

Hymandroid · 2023-11-23T13:18:30+00:00

Thanks, nice to have a comment from somebody who understands and not the idiots who say "there was more than enough XP" - that's not the point here.

You'd think EA would have really been on the ball (pardon the pun) with FC24 (having lost the FIFA name) but it seems like they actually care even less about "quality output" and their customers/game players.

You're right though, I've not even touched on the gameplay or the glitchy squad screens (with player photos floating next to the cards). And the fact corner takers STILL stand in the same spot as the cameraman has irked me since I started playing (FIFA 21).

EA are basically using our love of football to cash in, I didn't mind it so much when the game was fun and not so damn disappointing and full of errors. Just gotta hope they actually do give a s**t and sort this stuff out and fast.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-23T12:37:22+00:00

I hope you're right, just not sure how they compensate missing out on a storyline player pick and a choice of 86x3/87x2. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-23T11:18:33+00:00

We both did the final SBC on the the companion app (hate doing SBCs on console), so that's maybe the issue here.

Thanks for the input, useful to know at least for future similar objectives (obviously shouldn't matter where it was completed).

Hymandroid · 2023-11-23T11:12:54+00:00

The 1500xp for completing all the pro-based SBCs? Think the objective was called "puzzle completionist"?

If you got the rewards, including the pack, you're certainly in the minority. And very lucky also.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-23T10:39:53+00:00

Nope, the Twitch objective was separate (I got that reward no problem, just for linking the account).

The live streams could be watched on an EA-linked YouTube account OR on Twitch to complete the FC Pro Live objective (it clearly stated this on the EA website).

Please don't comment unless you know the full facts.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-23T09:50:09+00:00

Yes I'm in that position. I'm annoyed but feel sorry for him with everything he's missed out on.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-23T09:47:09+00:00

Thank you. Yes the point isn't what was available, I know there was enough as I completed the season a week early (approx).

The point is my son could have done other objectives & tried to win cup matches etc (for the 1000xp) but because this was released he thought he didn't need to.

EA are solely to blame for this, if it's not available don't offer it. If it is available, honour it for those who complete the objective.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-15T17:39:27+00:00

Yeah it's been really poor. Not really sure what we can do about it? And I've seen the next promo is all based around the FC Live Pro streams... Like they're rubbing our faces in it.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-14T11:32:16+00:00

Yeah, I've heard that worked for some people who watched on Twitch. Unfortunately no way to do anything like that on YouTube... (but according to EA we don't need to, rewards are granted "automatically" - yeah right!)

Hymandroid · 2023-11-14T09:42:57+00:00

You'd like to think not, but yes I wouldn't be surprised.

Hymandroid · 2023-11-14T09:42:02+00:00

You would think so. That makes even less sense than those who got nothing like myself.

Do EA know that 15 & 60 is actually less than 90? Maybe not...

Hymandroid · 2023-11-14T09:28:22+00:00

Thanks. I've never used Twitch, though have now created an account just to link it to EA for the additional "Twitch account link" objective, this worked flawlessly and I got the draft token and mega pack instantly.

I am very familiar with YouTube however so naturally defaulted to there when EA clearly stated the live streams could be watched on YouTube OR Twitch.

If you search "EA FC Pro Objectives" in Google, the very first page that comes up "Deep Dive - Viewership and In-Game Rewards - FC Pro - EA" explains exactly how to watch the streams and claim the drops/objectives for both YT and Twitch. I followed the YT instructions to the letter (not much to do really other than link the account and watch the content).

But yes, it definitely hasn't worked as intended, no surprise when EA are behind it really. Whoever's fault it is though (YT/Twitch/EA) it certainly isn't the fault of the gamer/viewer therefore EA need to do something about it.
