    Changed up my team last night. Sold Verrati and Hakimi in order to bring in Ballack. Rinised the club for The Prime Icon Pack and got Ferdinand.

    Running this team for WL.

    Hopefully the servers are decent. Never seen them as bad last weekend.

    Is Lewandowski really a CDM???

    Just for the chemistry, I change formation in game. Have to sub on Persic and TAA as well.

    That’s a lot of position changes :)

    ST - CF - CAM - CM - CDM I think 🀔 have you ever tried him at CDM?

    Yeah I gave him a few games there for the craic. He wasn't that bad actually, has great dribbling and passing but you want him in the box finishing chances.

    Mbappe wide right is the same kind of story, he doesn't score as many there but it makes the team more dangerous overall. I like having Del Piero as a false 9, he's wasted out wide. I might move Pozuelo in the centre yet for Perisic, will see how it goes.

    4-3 in weekend league.

    Should be 5-2 but someone cut my power when I was winning a game, meaning it was a loss instead -_-

    I’d forgotten how amazing it is having a proper top tier icon, in terms of player behavior. If you start losing, people get ultra-toxic.

    But when Zidane scores an absolutely stupid goal from way outside the box, it’s an insta-quit. Three of my four wins were rage quits after he curled in a far range effort that absolutely should not have gone in. It’s hilarious.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,175 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr Moon


    I'm 3-0 so far, don't know how.

    First game he was way better than me, he didn't get many shots but I didn't have any in the first half. He took the lead and I leveled with a free kick (my first shot of the game), then got a deflection to win in the last minute.

    2-0 down in the 2nd game make it back to 3-2 only for him to score in the last minute. I won on penos.

    Third one was easier and I won 3-2.

    Surely this is an error with no content??

    No objective players, no sbc’s? Game is hanging on by a thread for most people at this stage.

    It's a holiday in the states so could be no content today which sucks

    They’re a multi million dollar company, they can pay someone time and a half to come in and push the button :)

    Edit: looks like it was an error

    Jesus, that’s expensive :pac: hard pass on that with Dembele coming tomorrow.

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Pope looks super easy (I'll pop my TOTS Vardy up front with Heat Bruno and bang out the objectives).

    Mbabu actually looks super simple as well.

    I wish WL matches counted as well though.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,175 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr Moon


    This is hilarious!! EA trolling everyone.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,075 ✭✭✭Boulders8


    Got an Ultimate pack as log in reward


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,962 ✭✭✭Hogey007


    89 chiellini ucl card and a few 84’s from ultimate pack.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,222 ✭✭✭Calvin


    83 IF Muriel, 83 Casillas and 83 Bangea from my ultimate pack.... bloody hell. Thank god its free. Got 3x of those Conembol cards too... 1 of them was the face card ffs.

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    TotyN Verratti, Wijnaldum and a few 84s.

    Not great itself but probably enough fodder to let me do another Icon SBC tomorrow quickly.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,075 ✭✭✭Boulders8


    Diogo Joto ELMOTM and a 85 Higuain were the best I got from then Ultimate Pack. One 83 and and 82 and the rest were low rated rares

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Love it when I win a and fought match....Only to realize it was a rival’s match instead of a WL one...


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,511 ✭✭✭chips1234


    86 onana and an 84 inform from ultimate pack + totw moments perisic and boateng from 82-88 upgrade packs means im close to another icon pack ffs, can do the mbabu and pope objectives and then just need to buy 84 dembele and its done, almost done with the prem league sbc also with just a cam-cf card to buy and then norwich to do which looks a nightmare to get the cards.

    Interesting to see what 5 x 88+ player pack is for?? An sbc? a stream drop?

    that will require, a pint of blood, your left nut, and an 86 rated squad.

    done mbabu and pope and launched them into another icon pack...zola.

    finished the prem league sbc also( i can repeat this right away right? will run through it again asap)

    did anyone else do ndombele ? he might be the worst of all the summer heat cards ive used(or most likely im just terrible), annoys me that much i dont even want to put him in the next icon pack i wish i could print out the card and set it alight.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭BrentMused


    As a Bundesliga team owner searching for a RB to replace, well, Mbabu, I literally couldn’t have hand-picked a better card than that that Mbabu Summer Heat card :pac:

    Has anyone got him yet? Just two more Rivals wins with a finesse shot goal and I have him.

    I thought the assists with defenders would take me a while but I surprisingly managed to get all of the other objectives apart from the finesse shot goals done in just 3 games.

    Either I’m getting much better or it seemed like a couple of my opponents were messing around and letting me do what I needed to do for the objectives. Would this usually happen? They played the entire 90 minutes and never messaged me or anything, as I’d have gladly helped them out if they needed to do anything too.

    who knows :D sometimes you get people that alright and see you are doing objectives and help out, mbabu looks a great card sadly i was never gonna use him.

    Foden got his upgrade to 95 a bit quicker than Diaby’s, also noticed that McGuire’s OTW got a +1 upgrade to 87

    His FUT bday card gave him 5*skills, they’ve kept it for this.


    I was bored and done the guaranteed flashback player and got Boateng, would be delighted but I already had him, through him into Kimpembe. Now to get Frank!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,962 ✭✭✭Hogey007


    Who are people taking from storyline player?

    Have enough now, not sure on Jesus or matuidi.
    Can’t see myself using either unless it’s for objectives?

    The storyline players have generally just always been behind the curve, aouor and Fred the only 2 I ever really used in my main team for a few matches.

    I watched a review on YouTube a while back which suggested stats wise that Draxler was the best bet. I’m probably going for Matuidi as I could do with another CDM for my Serie A team so as to balance out all the attackers i have - can play him with Kessie so that Ronaldo, Dybala, Ibra and Mertens can all run free

    Actually yeah, I could use matuidi in a serie a team, I’ll go for him.
    I don’t see any scenario where I’d use Jesus as already have moments moura to cover any Brazilian prem objectives.

    Gonna pick Matuidi I think. Strong links to Ronaldo plus with all the French players they've released seems the best choice for me, and he was last choice for me when I first looked at it. I'll have enough today to get him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,939 ✭✭✭maxwell smart


    One more try of Prime Icon...

    RONALDINHO!!!!!!

    Get in there you beauty


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,473 ✭✭✭Adamcp898


    Overpriced......

    But still, why CAM!? I’d probably have still done it if he was wide but EA obviously don’t want to piss off all the lads who’ll buy coins just to get their RW Messi


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,452 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    did prime icon and got Kaka...sweet. Better than bloody Nakata.

    Ah tbf that was the purpose of the vote... position changed players. Maximin would’ve been ST and Meunier would’ve been a CDM.

    I’ll probably do him... but wait and see what they do with the new upgrade packs in code.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,962 ✭✭✭Hogey007


    Yeah I’ll probably do him too as I’ve accumulated so much high rated fodder.

    I’m in wind down mode now, not trading and unlikely to play wl again so might aswell pump fodder into something.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Have done two more Icon SBCs since Zidane.

    Wright and Litmanen.

    Gonna keep going though. I'd really love one of the top level strikers.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,175 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr Moon


    Crafted out Ribery. Lets hope he's good!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,473 ✭✭✭Adamcp898


    The last reported pulls here tempted me into a prime icon SBC...........Gerrard. Damn you all.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,175 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr Moon


    I really wish Liverpool won the other night to give Fabinho a 95 rated card, he's the best DM in the game I've used as a 92, I can only imagine what his upgraded one would've been.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,222 ✭✭✭Calvin


    Oh btw lads, anyone that invested in HL Saul - he’s 42k now on PS.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,048 ✭✭✭Bunny Colvin


    Finished 17/12. Decent enough WL, most of the games were fairly competitive. I moved Mbappe back into ST and switched to 4-2-2-2 five games in. Gave a much better balance to the team. Perisic playing in the centre makes some difference, some card.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,939 ✭✭✭maxwell smart


    🀣🀣🀣
    Feeling good with the Prime SBC. So tried it again
    Gerrard - serves me right.

    But I had so many pretty coloured cards I figured lets go again. In goes Kessie, Gerrard, Maja, a Fernandes and a few other randoms.

    Here we go....

    French...

    CB..

    Desailly! Woo Hoo! Him and Ferdinand at the back now.

    So I've got
    Ronaldinho
    Ferdinand
    Desailly
    Raul
    Zola
    Zambrotta
    Gerrard - recycled
    Lehmann - recycled
    Lineker - recycled

    Great streak I think.

    On Ronaldinho - he's actually probably too good for me. Need to spend some time figuring out how to use him.
