FIFA 21 Ultimate Team

Mr Moon · 15-06-2021 6:32pm

Lindelof looks like the best CB in the game, nice addition to the Utd team

Calvin · 15-06-2021 6:36pm

Got 88 Kimmich from my player pick… not too bad.. all untradeable fodder anyway.

Giggsy_ · 15-06-2021 6:38pm

That Lindelof card looks mad and for only a 86 rated squad

Hopefully we see more nations over the next week or two

Lord TSC · 15-06-2021 9:48pm

Omg Lindelof, I’m so happy.

RossieMan · 15-06-2021 9:52pm

Do ye not think the content is a to little, to late?

The game is practically dead, and is probably going to go down as the worst FIFA so far.
They've been better with content this year, it's the only.tging keeping.kost playing as the game itself is absolute awful.

I really hope the new pes engine is a success and we might finally.get a decent football game.

Lord TSC · 15-06-2021 10:11pm

Might run this for some fun this weekend...

Wasnt aware PES was getting a new engine.

I had tried the last few and they weren't bad but just lacking somewhat.

This FIFA engine is really poor for 2021.

Its effectively attackers against defenders, like the training drill you do where theres two boxes and three teams play possession and the team without the ball works between the boxes to win it.
Often in games one pass from your/their 1/3 and its 3v3, midfield is just bypassed with 40 yard passes.

I'd like to actually play a game again where you could really pin some down with good play and passing that was accurate.

EA cant provide it with this engine so itll be much of the same next year unless they announce something major.

Just another thing to go back on two previous points people made on here.

The max level in objectives is NOT easy to achieve.

Last season was my first full one and I was maybe two levels off the max.
I was getting all the objective cards, playing 30 WL, some Rivals, only maybe 1 SP.

So thought maybe it was random.

Same again this month, theres only days to go and I've two levels to go.
I'm on this a fair bit so wouldn't consider it a gimme to get it for average playtime. It seems to take hardcore levels or else the Squad Battles count for a lot and I dont do them.

Second point was someone said headers were O/P since the update.

I barely scored any over the last week, never mind hit more crosses so you were just seriously unlucky as I have Lewandowski and Volland so they ain't 5'5 players either.

I must play this game too much, I got the level 30 objective player two weeks ago.

Got Lewa from my 85+ PP decent 91 fodder.

This weekend league just gone I came up against like 5 opponents who spammed crosses in to their big guy up top most of the game.

Another thing I noticed was lads using the offside trap a lot more.

I find it very hard to think what they can do , skills are too op and autublocking but if they weren't it would be damn near impossible to score and defend respectively. If midfielders actively came back to defend to it would make it very hard to break down too and I don't think people want more 1-0 games .. it's very hard to make a game that is both enjoyable and competitive

Can't agree there, Level 30 of Objectives is dead handy. As long as you do you the Bronze, Silver and Gold every week you will get there easy with all the other stuff that will fall in like Objective Players etc. I tend to have them all done with two weeks to go without really putting too much focus on it.

Yes, You play too much, in a couple of years You'll catch yourself on and realise what the game is.

EA Sports ..... screw the customer lol

Agree with this. My first time getting to lvl 30 and I was surprised at how easy it is… did all of the bronze, silver, gold barring one gold objective two weeks ago that was mental (something like volley with a Dutch player and score with a German in one rivals game etc etc.) and hit lvl 30 early last week. Didn’t take long at all, and I didn’t do many objective players.

Liamalone · 16-06-2021 1:38am

Anyone else got peeved off with this 'initialising' craic when matchmaking? Dang it annoys me so!

Liamalone · 16-06-2021 5:48am

15 defeats later, still only a game, messaged every one saying gg .... Nobody scored 10 against me though, a couple of nines though

I skipped that entire week of Gold Objectives bar the 3.5k Rival points as it was just not worth the hassle.

I did the squad battles one alright as I had it paired with silver beasts, so was easy enough but skipped the rivals ones… they were ridiculous.

charolais0153 · 16-06-2021 11:57am

Done 29 player picks.
Golovin fof 90 rated
5 88s a handful of each 87,86,85,84 and majority 82 remainder

Done 22 myself - 12 of the 81+ and 10 of the 82-88 ones which initially I ignored as didn’t realise they were player picks.

From the 81+ got 82x1, 83x4, 84x1, 85x3 and 87x2

The 82-88 gave 82x2, 83x3, 84x1, 85x2 and 86x2

Also got 88 Kane from the 85+ player pick. Not a FoF in sight but did give me enough fodder to finish Gimenez and complete Lindelorf

Hogey007 · 16-06-2021 12:42pm

I must’ve done about 30 of those 81+ player picks too and no fof player.

I did get some high rated fodder like 91 lewa, and a couple of 88’s so it’s probably evened out but then you look at threads on Reddit etc and see people getting griezmann after 5 picks.

But like everyone always says, it’s usually only the people who get great pulls that post about them, you don’t hear so much about the numerous others who did 10, 20, 30 and got nowt.

Calvin · 16-06-2021 1:08pm

Same, have done 30+ picks no FOF but **** loads of fodder - completed Jota and banked the rest.

I dunno, I'd say the person who got nothing is even more vocal than the person who got lucky.

With reviews that will often happen, the good ones aren't as vocal. But with gambling/luck?.. I'd say it's just as common to hear the unlucky than lucky.

I was waiting to finish the objectives before rinsing my club into the player pick as I still had Swaps outstanding and whatever came since Friday.

I did about 9 so far and it was mainly 84 to 85s.

If anything it's a good way of clearing stuff you dont need, and as most people are saying, the game is nearly dead so why hold onto anything you dont need at this point.

I hate discarding duplicates as always think there should be a use for them so these player picks are ideal. Have loads of packs still to open so can do that and then recycle the duplicates into the player picks in the hope of at least hitting some high rated fodder.

Calvin · 16-06-2021 3:01pm

Guaranteed packs on the way. Hopefully will be reasonably priced:

Gonna be 87 or maybe even 88 surely given the upgrade path.

Mr Moon · 16-06-2021 5:02pm

Prime pack #7 is available to claim now.

Calvin · 16-06-2021 7:13pm

That 82+ was an absolute scam.. 2x 83 dupes and the rest were 82 dupes :pac:

The 83+ was a lot better though… got FOF Veratti and 2x 87, 2x 85 the rest 84.

Inspired by your Veratti pull I just did it myself.

FoF Acuna, never and Robertson with the rest all 84

Golovin. Sweet for a free pack.

Huh……

The 83x10 pack.

I guess I can call it a win. Griezmann feels a pretty decent pull…

Lord TSC · 16-06-2021 9:04pm

Got to imagine a French player is going to get a few upgrades too.

Does kill the idea of doing a United P&P team this weekend though. Can’t not give him a whirl.

RossieMan · 16-06-2021 9:12pm

He'll be the best card on the game if France win the tournament.

Serious pull that. I got golovin. Not so incredible but better than most!

Hogey007 · 16-06-2021 9:15pm

Got neymar and van dijk in mine, can’t complain for what I put into it.

Osmosis Jones · 16-06-2021 9:18pm

Great pull from the Daily SBC

Osmosis Jones · 16-06-2021 9:28pm

That dupe Oblak has also convinced me to do the Icon SBC so here we go :rolleyes:

charolais0153 · 16-06-2021 9:32pm

Done the 84 X 20 from swaps, mbappe was the walkout. Very underwhelming

Osmosis Jones · 16-06-2021 9:48pm

Prime Lahm, I just want a PIM

Prime pep.

Probably the worst card possible.

Cheapest 90 rated card is 40k so I basically converted 600k of fodder to 40k worth of fodder.

They really failed with actual icon sbc’s this year

dmigsy · 16-06-2021 10:32pm

What a waste of fodder! :pac:

RossieMan · 16-06-2021 10:34pm

Crazy to be doing icon SBCs now. Only a handful are better than tots cards that you most probably already have.

The nation SBCs are very good, Pity we won't be getting one. Would love a useable Irish player. Don't think we've ever really had one.

None of your business what I do with my fodder. It's a bit of craic, I'll throw it into crappy SBCs if I like. For someone who hates the game so much you're very quick to tell people how they should play it.

Similar result this end when I did it last night, Prime Schweinsteiger.

Uh what? I didn't mention you at all. It was a general statement, which is true. It's not alright to be releasing a prime or moments pack in June.

Yep I got exact same. As soon as I seen the Spanish flag I was thinking “ah feck…..but please be ST next as I could work with moments Torres”

But no, that cdm appearing was a kick in the stones.

For me, I’m almost done with the game, I’ll still play a little casually but can’t see myself playing weekend league again so figured I might aswell chance me arm trying to get a ronaldinho or R9 as no other way to get them this year other than rolling the roulette wheel in the ea casino

Exactly. There's no real worthy upgrades to be earned or much to played for at this stage so a spin of the wheel with all the junk in the club is all it is. I don't think Prime Guardiola would have got in my team in January, never mind now!

RedRochey · 16-06-2021 10:54pm

Just on the objectives, I've done most of the weekly objectives but not much else and I'm a good bit away from level 30, think we underestimate how much XP you get from playing rivals or weekend league

I find it frustrating that almost everything is change based now.
Grand to have them there for the people who like rolling the dice on a gamble but if they just had some decent permanent icon sbc’s to put the fodder into if you wanted to guarantee yourself a good card over time
