    Only started UT last week, tis addictive I got to say.

    My first team, all French (starting XI and subs, few foreign reservers) -

    2n8zbdd.png

    Others that can't be seen are Remy, Roux, Grizemann, Martin, Toulalan, Flamini, Ebondo, Cissokh and Elana.

    Never wanted Benzema incase I'm asked. Rami would be in the starting XI if he wasn't such a pain trying to acquire. Gonna sign Varene instead and then move onto my next team which will either be a Portugese league based team or Japan and Korean hybrid team.

    Has there ever been a Gold contract crash before?

    I've been picking them up for 250 BIN, it took a very quick hand and loads of looks to get any.
    Sell them on for 350-400BIN

    But since yesterday evening there is a constant page of 250 BIN, most are Manager contracts but there is a solid number of 40+ player ones too. :confused:

    Does this happen from time to time?

    I've been on the app most days the past 2 weeks and manager contracts for 250 weren't lasting long never mind players.... what the hell happened yesterday :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭Sabre0001


    1st of the month so people get pre-order bonus packs. Also Messi in TOTW again so people buying more packs.

    Perhaps......I never have a clue how the market works :D

    🤪



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,462 Mod ✭✭✭✭Axwell


    Yeah first of the month so people have free packs from pre-order. All the prices go crazy for a few days and people get rid of the excess stuff they don't want from the packs or their squads to make money and make room for the new players.

    Rami would be in the starting XI if he wasn't such a pain trying to acquire. Not one to give up anything I really want :pac:, but after well over a dozen Rami bids I grew tired of waiting . Varene was added to the squad yesterday.

    Gonna make a Portugese league team or Japan and Korean hybrid team next.


    Im not playing much longer and I'm only correcting the mistakes I made like you are now.

    Before you even buy another player, DO NOT BUY PLAYERS FROM A DIFFERENT FORMATION

    You can get away with a lad playing in a 4-3-2-1 if he's a 4-3-1-2 and maybe even a 4-2-2-2 if you can keep team mates linked to him.

    You can get 100 Chemistry but still have players with 4/5/6 individual which means they'll play like ****e either way.

    When you're searching for players, just settle on a formation and be patient, I started to resell all the players I had bought(from my French team i had Gourchuff, Menez, M'Bia) that didn't fit either of my two formations.

    I thought maybe I could pick up formation modifiers late at night cheap as I was the players but they NEVER go cheap and it's so hard to find any with 4 defenders.

    I'd recommend Gallas as a CB, he doesn't come up much during the day though but I see him a lot at night

    http://www.ea.com/soccer/fifa-ultimate-team/show-off#eq80qubPbc0Pt

    My team minus a midfiield since I'm waiting to reaquire them all.

    Luckily I didn't splash silly money on anyone so I was able to resell all the players for a profit until I get them in one of my two formations.

    Sounds worryingly like a vampire.

    Must go check my free packs. Actually, I missed the ones for January as I had zero time for FIFA, I thought they'd carry over so when I logged in in Feb, I would see 8 waiting. No dice though.

    jamescd - Do you have any 4-4-2 gold PL players that you're not using?


    Sold off my team a few weeks ago but started again after getting Pato in 1 of my free packs (Sold him for 8000). Just looking to make a basic PL team with the coins. Cheers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,345 ✭✭✭jamescd


    I'll see what I got

    Ok, no 4-4-2 but I got several 4-4-1-1 and 4-2-2-2's. You'll still get the green boot because those two formations are similar to 4-4-2. Have Agger, Bent, Ramires, and Downing. Also still have Dzeko and Wilshere because Axwell hasn't taken them yet.

    Ill definitely take Bent, Agger, Ramires and Downing off of you if that's alright?

    If you only want to give 1 or 2 that's grand. Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,345 ✭✭✭jamescd


    You can have them all. If Axwell doesn't want Dzeko and Wilshere anymore, you can have them as well.

    Put up a bronze player you dont need and PM me the details.

    Did anyone play last year?

    I was reading the chemistry had no effect?..... they really took it to the other extreme this year.

    I can tell who's going to win the game on load up, really cheap tbh.
    If you come up against 85+ players with good chemistry you're wasting your time playing.
    Even with my 100% chem and 80-82 players if I meet a super team they play like **** anyway, its like your own teams chem has just been negated.

    I agree there needs to be some incentive to build diff teams and to avoid everyone having the same 11 for gold but when I play, I don't want my games decided by 10% skill and 90% chemistry/team......

    Works both ways, I don't like winning games because the other lads team isn't as settled, I can beat enough ppl myself without boosters/handicaps.

    Maybe a player boost of +1 would be better for blending your team?....

    Just wish this mode played like a normal FIFA 12 game, it feels VERY arcadey and cheap in comparison.... but I love the buying and selling :D

    Ah that's too bad, have several Ligue 1 players that are in 4-3-2-1/4-3-3. Pastore, Hazard, Lucho, Valbuena, etc... :p

    Well I have an 89 rated team with 100 chemistry and every player 9 chem, but I still lose to 81/82 rated teams with 70 chemistry:o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35 jamesmclean


    I'm new to ultimate team (started last week) and am trying to get smart deals and build up my squad and win tournaments so I can make money.

    So far I only have a 76 rated squad with 72 chemistry. And 1022 coins in the bank thing.

    I'm on xbox and if anybody has any spare players at all could the message me?

    Thanks

    This is like a begging thread now :D

    Bit of an odd request, does anyone have any 3-4-2-1 Hellas Liga players they don't need? Discarded my 3 packs and made my new favourite team, I'll post it tomorrow, only cost 7-8 k

    21 goals in my first 4 games with them


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,855 ✭✭✭Charlie Haughy


    Hey there jamescd, I know your giving away lots of players there, but would you happen to have any premier league players that your not using which I could get off you? preferably gold shiny or silver shiny players if possible? or if you have any decent siere A players in 4-1-2-1-2 or 4-3-3 or similar if your not using them which I could get off ya :pac: ?

    sound out man if you do!

    Exactly. I was beating teams left, right and center, fairly comfortably too for the most part with way worse rated team ratings and chemistry. I know it's somewhat important but for me at least, not to the level it's being made out at least so far. I appreciate the advice from others though don't get me wrong. Not saying I'm a great FIFA player by any means but my record currently stands around 34/35 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses I think and the team I posted only has played 3 games together. I'am not really a 1vs1 player, and haven't been for a few years now (Pro Club is my area) Maybe 20-30 online games I've played in 3 years. Anyway, I'm not terribly fussed about formations, modifiers and the like. My reason for playing FUT anyway, is building teams consisting of players I like. now Club time is become less and less than ever as before.

    Cheers for the possible offer of Rami btw. I'm on PS3 though. Credit to you for helping others out it must be said.


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    On another FUT related note. What's the story with creating new squads.. say for example I want to keep my French squad and create multiple other squads (next one being the Japanese/South Korean hybrid team probably).

    Can I do that?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,345 ✭✭✭jamescd


    Yup you can have as many squads as you want, have 6 myself

    Just started playing UT this week.

    One thing I seem to be struggling with is making coins with players. Any Tips?

    Also for contracts, if I am buying a contract and it says +5 or +12 does that mean the amount of games I can use with that player so +12 means he under contract for 12 games?

    I'm still awful at making coins. A good method seems to be searching for a decent player once you get your coins up, in and around the 10-20k mark, and check out a certain players buy nows, then try and win him cheaply, it takes a while. Still, at that I'm awful so hopefully someone else here can help you with that.

    And yes, just remember if which type of card your player is and get the right contract card type.

    Gold contracts can make you 100 a pop.

    Search for BIN of 250, it can take time, they only pop up in 2s and 3s and sell within a second or two, but with a bit of luck you can get them. You just have to sit there clicking the search button back and forth and then hoping you get the bid in before someone else.
    Sell them on then for 350-400BIN.

    If you're up late at night, 2am+ you can get loads of 80+ players for 800-1500 who you can resell for a few 100 more.

    I came across Lennon last night(although it was the first one I ever found searching below 2000) and resold today for 3,500 made about 1500 or so.
    You'll come across loads of Lopez, S.Parker, A.Song etc at night for 700-1000 who you can resell for 1200-1500.

    I'm new to it as well and have managed to make a profit off every player I've bought so far shopping late at night.

    I've also picked up a good bunch of 83+ players all acquired for less than 3500(Cambiasio-3500, Rossi-1200, Loris-1100, Malouda-750) could resell all of those for decent profit.

    You really need to be up late at night to get players to resell, otherwise you're living off contracts.

    Having said all that, my best profit has probably been from the silver Portugese team I bought they were all 71-74 with high pace, all bought for 350-900 and I've resold all for 1000+, most people are more likely to discard good silver players.

    You could also buy some bronze 400 packs and sell the contents, I saw a video Sabre(from here) had made based on another video and it worked for him, so I gave it a shot and with patience you will resell most items for 150-200 each... some people will even pay 150 for a bronze contract(even though you get 3 in the 400 pack :confused:) but that method takes patience, I haven't bought one in a week and still have some items to shift but they go overtime.

    Probably the most important though is NOT to buy Gold packs..... for 7,500 you only get crap players who resell for 400-600, and the whole pack resells at a loss compared to buying Bronze/Silver pack to resell entirely(where you can make profit with patience)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,920 ✭✭✭The Floyd p


    If you have 20K+ a great way to make coins is buying IF the week they come out. Made 11K on 2 IF Jovetic's because I bought him the day after he came out.

    Here is my new team (made with 9K) scored 27 in 5 games with them

    Thanks for the shoutout :) It's a method that takes patience, but you can get there slowly but surely. I sell the packs over the course of a week - plenty of re-trys and persistence.
