If anyone gets Notts County crest

Havent a Saloman Kalou

If i go to game stop now do i get any packs with the game?
Have an ok fifa 11 team seem **** to start fresh again

Sabre0001

You'll get the starter pack which is usually a collection of bronze players. They might still let you pre-order so you'd get in with that bonus.

The web app applies if you had set up a team before a certain date (can't remember when) and gives you two extra packs - I THINK it only applies if you use the web app though, and I'm not sure if that deal expires when the game comes out.

That's it! You're on the list.....That's a nice haul.

Töpher

Can't open the starter pack, service unavailable. Gah! Hopefully be up later or something.

First web app competitions have been released.

Top Squad Competition: Prizes will be awarded to Top Squads as per the Top Squad Monthly Leaderboard. If more than one squad has the same rating, the tiebreaker will be Club Value.

- 1st place:100,000 coins
- Runners Up: 5 x 25,000 coins
- Third place: 25 x Gold Premium Pack

Closing Date: Monday 26 September 11:59pm BST
Winners announced: Monday 3 October

FUT Generations Competition: Prizes will be awarded to the most original squads, as judged by a top panel of experts at the FIFA studio.

The aim is to show your passion for your favourite team. All players in your team must be from the same club, as indicated on the card (so you could still have a Liverpool Torres, for example). The tiebreaker will be the number of FUT 12 players, then date and time of submission.

A bench is not mandatory. However, FUT12 players on the bench will count towards your total.

How to Enter: Head over to the official FIFA forum and send links to your Generations squad in a personal message to “EA_FLT” - our account on the forum. Send with your entry a brief summary of the squad theme and why you love it. The subject of your message should be "Generations Contest".

- 1st place: 100,000 coins
- Runners Up: 5 x 25,000 coins
- Third place: 25 x Gold Premium Pack

Closing Date: Monday 26 September 11:59pm BST

I'm a little disappointed - a way for the rich to get richer...Especially annoying because that match ticker is now counting which means people are playing online. The early access was fine because it suited me But this means you have to be really lucky, good at trading (which seems to be where majority of money comes from) or just have early access and playing the actual game.

Would have thought EA would try to take focus away from trading. After all - it is the card packs and MS point spends that would feed into their pockets surely...

Lukaku from Chelsea was the only thing of note I got and hes only 78 so they were not very good packs.

v3ttel

The only thing of note I got was Ivica Olic from Bayern (ST - 80). I'll probably hang on to him for a while.

I bought Seamus Coleman (RM - 76) and John O'Shea (RB - 75) for a combined total of 950. Probably a waste in that I could probably buy higher rated players if I didn't blow coins straight away, but always nice to have a few players you like to start off with.

Ciaran Clark, James McCarthy, Wes Holoohan seem to be available for cheap enough too.

Tinie

Whats the story with the Generations thing on this web app? Is there any use to it, in having your fifa 10 and fifa 11 team there too?

Sabre0001

If you can create a team from one RL team (i.e. Real Madrid, Liverpool, Shamrock Rovers, etc), you can enter it in the competition...Otherwise no real point outside of making a dream team from former FUT editions that you played.

Long story short: no point

Mikeyt086

Must admit I lol'd when I launched the web app and was greeted with:

"Welcome back HIV Eindhoven!"

Forgot that was my team name

Töpher

Anyone else getting 'Sorry, the service you're trying to reach is unavailable at the moment' after pressing 'keep it' for your team name? Tried from home, and work, across several browsers - all the same.

Yeah i got that as well mate but I think I just refreshed the page and it was grand after.

Every time I set up my starting 11 in "my squad" and it asks do i want to save the changes i press yes but then it says "an error has occurred" and nothing has saved which is quite annoying.

Charlie Haughy

Woodgate, Ramires, Pandev, Chivu, Kakuta and Diamanti. Best of the lot from my 2 gold packs.



Got some other random golds and silvers too, but nothing special.

Sold Lukaku for 2,700.

Happy with that he was only 78.

Bought Thiago (Barcelona - 79) for 600 points so I'm going to try and pick up a few cheap players that I like with the coins.

EDIT: Feels like football manager in pre season when your trying to get some new signings in for the new season

Mikeyt086

I got Pandev, Leon Osman and Matty Etherington.

Meh.

Sabre0001

How are people getting on with the daily gifts?

Got a mini silver pack (rubbish really...) and got 1,000 coins today (yay, though I may have misspent initially - have some money tied up in contracts that won't sell til a couple of days into game)

Mikeyt086

I got a mini-gold pack as my daily gift today.

The best card was Alan Pardew.

v3ttel

I got 2,500 coins as my daily gift today. That'll do nicely. I've managed to sell all the random lads I got in packs to raise so more cash. Down -1,100 net, but got some players who I actually like:

---

GK

---

O'Shea

---

CB

---

CB

---

LB
Coleman---CM---Sergio Canales---Diego Capel

---

Michael Owen

---

Ivica Olic

---

3,800 coins. This is by far my favourite part of the whole Ultimate Team thing. Scraping around, trying to get half decent players for a bargain to fit them in.

Sabre0001

Nice! I got a mini bronze pack today Kit will probably be kept. Already discarded 2 cards and the last was a contract which doesn't come into play until next week.

Have a team of N Power players - any N Power division...Also doubles as a bronze English side. Getting there with an ok Serie A side as well. Don't have time at the moment to scrape around for deals, but it is interesting and I have one eye on the app...

jmx009

When i try to sign up for the UT web app, it says that i should first buy or Fifa 12.

I just created a fifa 11 ultimate team 2 days ago. Wont i be able to access them through the online app?

Was there a time limit on before which you had to create a ultimate team in fifa 11 before you can start using the web app?

I have already pre ordered fifa 12 via gamestop.

Sabre0001

Yeah, think it was August that you had to have a FUT11 to get early access. Pre-ordering will get you a couple of extra gold packs over the next few months though.

Seems there's a few lads on the EA forums suffering from this. Not many, but it seems to be an EA issue rather than on my end. Pretty frustrating, I'm lagging behind by the day!

I always just play 4-4-2 and only have my center midfield sorted so far.

Javi Martinez - Athletic Bilbao
Thiago - Barcelona

Wanted to get Vidal from Juventus but he was a bit out of my price range.

Love to have the game now to play a few games to get some coins haha.

Tinie

Picked up Raúl at a Buy it now for 500 coins! Happy with that, since hes a 81 a slots into my CF position nicely for the time being. Have my chemistry up to 55 so far also.

Legwinski

Gonna bring Given in I'd say.

Need a new manager too!

niallith

my dealing is done for the day. got a full prem league 11 now.

Sabre0001

^^ Definitely need new manager. They don't add anything unless same nationality / their formation Good luck with the Irish team! I didn't find them fun to play as last year but best of luck!

Caught between trying to get coins and trying to build squads. I have a bronze English team (anyone who plays in A N-Power division) which needs subs, and starting a Serie A squad. Don't trust the 40 rated goalkeeper - looks like he belongs in Under-12s and I may stick a striker in there who may be more reliable

Any idea how Trapatoni would do? Would the fact that he's Italian make him worse than Stephen Kenny?

Just got him for 200 coins. No increase in chemistry. Seems stupid

Oat23

Got these in my 2 starter packs - Fred from Fluminense(79), Daniele De Rossi from Roma(83), Rafael from Hertha(76), Denilson from Sao Paulo(76) and Konstantin Rausch from Hannover(76).

Has to be same nationality as team or the formation that you are using. It is a little strange alright that the national manager has no impact, but that's FIFA....Fairly limited pool of managers it seems too.

Mikeyt086

Got Duffer for 350 coins. He joins Cudicini, J.Evans, Anderson and Leon Osman (didnt buy him lol) in my team going for a Barclays PL XI, only including players I like. I got Leon Osman in a pack so stuck him in.

Going for a Spanish XI myself at the moment (Obviously not the lads that actually start for the national team - That would cost a fair bit )

So far I have:
LM - Capel
CM - Thiago
CM - Martinez

ST - Bojan

I want to get Cazorla and Roberto Soldado to complete the midfield and the front two

Ill need to actually get the game and play some games though to get them haha.

Flyin Irishman

Not havin much look with UT so far! My 3 gifts have been two mini silver packs and 500 coins. Currently my best player is Hummels, then I guess Belluschi, and then it really starts to trail off

Havnt even managed to sell anyone to raise some funds...

CyberWaste

My Current team... have a 79 I got in my original gold back on sale also along with a 75, so hoping to get about 800 or more coins for the 2 of them. Once I get a striker to slot in, and maybe a spanish keeper, I will then start saving coins, and buying stuff like contracts, fitness cards etc. Need to get a spanish manager too...

What you think?

Oat23

Sold De Rossi for 3,500 and sold a few others to bring my balance up to around 4.2k. So since I had 2 Brazilians already I said I'd try to throw a team together....sort of failed because I ran out of coins

I burst out laughing when I saw Pat Devlin as manager. Priceless

This is how my spanish team is coming along.

LB - Capdevila

LM - Capel
CM - Thiago
CM - Javi Martinez
RM - Joaquin (Sp?)

ST - Bojan
ST - Raul

Couldn't afford Cazorla or Soldado

That's basically all I can do with my team till I get the game because i'm out of coins unless I get some good "free daily gifts"

Hi lads,

First season that I'm going to give Ultimate Team a proper bash so I just have a few questions?

1) Is it possible to get a decent team without spending a penny on packs?

2) What should I be looking to do to create a decent team? It seems that most people go for a team of the same nationality or from the same league rather than a mix of better players, I presume there's a reason for this?

3) Is it better to play games against the computer or online with your Ultimate Team?

4) Just from messing around with it tonight I see the likes of Adriano and Zhirkov popping up for sale time and time again. Any particular reason why lots of people are trying to flog the same players off?

Thanks

1) Yep, I rarely bother with packs, I just buy players in auctions. I find it better. But the allure to buying packs is there, since you COULD get a really good player, but its not that common too.

2) We buy players with same nationality/league they play in etc. as it brings the chemistry up. Chemistry basically means that the lower it is, the more poor passes and mistakes your players make.

3) I just play online as I think you get more coins, but not sure. You can win some cups against the computer for big coins, which I advise doing at the start, but once their won, thats it. You cant keep replaying them.

4) No reason really, they are just common players in packs I assume, and these people selling them dont want/need them. If you search for a specific player, you will see lots of the same sales of them. Unless its Messi, Rooney, Ronaldo etc.

Cheers for that, very detailed and informative response.

I can see how addictive it can get, I've been messing around for the last hour or so and the whole auction thing is really good. The highest price player I've seen up for auction is a David Villa at 230,000 coins.

I've got quite a few Spanish players in my free packs, so I'm going to try and build a team of Spanish internationals/La Liga players.

Sabre0001

Dunno if it's been changed, but in 11 you were always allowed replay tournaments. Most tournaments have conditions regarding squad composition and number of trophies won. CPU gives easy points at start.

Very possible to build a team without buying packs. Play games and buy people or play the trading game. Some people making amazing profits on trades but it takes some work!

I try to build teams without buying packs but its just so tempting when you have 5000 coins and you think there's a chance of getting Xavi, Messi, Ronaldo etc

Then you open the pack and get your 12th Anton Ferdinand card :eek:
