Oh dear, looks like I've been hit with the bidding glitch :/ Bought my IF Silva for 100k more than I wanted (740k) Just bid on a 442 version with a few seconds to go and my bid rocketed up to use up all my coins, was only on 630k when I bid. Oh well, maybe my fault for not paying attention enough when bidding although strange it used my exact amount of coins when it should have gone up 1k!

Just seen a 4222 one go for 683k so should be able to recoup a lot of it during a busy period! I r nub?

Edit: 41212 just sold for 896k, could be worse, guess somethings up...

Why waste money on IF defenders ? just get david luiz he's better than any other defender in the game just like Ibra is better than any other striker in the game apart from in form ibra of course.

Bunko · 23 Dec 2011 at 15:32

Just wanted to try him out, was planning to sell after a few games anyway

Yea be careful people are bidding last second on their own stuff I have noticed someone called Barcelona does it all the time it must be pretty epic to pull it off and isn't illegal it's not a glitch btw it's someone using a secondary account to bid on their own listing last second to catch people out in bidding wars.

Either way a pain in the backside! How did it just deduct the exact amount of coins I had left though if it isn't a glitch?

That's rather sneaky :eek:

admittedly clever but so sneaky!

Stewy · 23 Dec 2011 at 15:38

Got 160k to play with and no idea what I fancy

edit: sorry double post fail.

I have noticed in the holiday cup that it's open to abuse look at my holiday cup team I shouldn't be 76 rated with this lot but I am and I can sub in Ba and tiote and sturrige after the game starts yet if I start with them in the team it isn't a valid team for 4 stars and i have seen a lot of others using 4.5 star teams in the so called 4 star cup
http://www.ea.com/uk/football/fifa-ultimate-team/show-off#kojSaYG4bcjoL

If you filled out the bench with all 75 rated gold gk's would that allow an even better starting 11 i wonder, I have tried all random gold 75's on bench but doesn't it go by which positions you put on the bench too ?

Stewy · 23 Dec 2011 at 15:53

Anything that isn't 5* is gonna be open to abuse tbh.

Metalface Mark · 23 Dec 2011 at 17:19

That ref was a joke Tim, what a beautiful tackle by Ferdinand and he got sent off for it!

GreenMint · 23 Dec 2011 at 17:22

gg's Mark, missed playing vintage Mark who breaks your legs if you are through on goal though!

gg, poor goals really, your 2nd wasn't the greatest

No idea what stek was doing stuck to the floor!

Stewy · 23 Dec 2011 at 17:33

It's really annoying when Aguero isn't quicker than peoples' CBs lol, that combined with 'Barndoor's refusal to win a single header all game were annoying. Meh, GG, I can't play 4-3-1-2 myself, way too narrow, yet I lose to it a lot as the top 3 are always up front against my back 4.

I thought that was a perfectly fair tackle!

I hate my defence, my old team was similar to yours which I think ill go back to, I thought that run Thiago Silva had was hilarious, I miss having him in my team

Yeah I know what you mean, I miss Aguero and IF Marcelo now though, wish I never bought IF T. Silva now haha especially as it ruined my coins total too

He was in my trade pile out of frustration which is why he wasn't playing.

4312 seems to be the only formation I can actually get on with. Absolutely no idea why :/

Hopefully play a few more games soon

Stewy · 23 Dec 2011 at 17:43

Yeah was a good game, I'll give you a few more when I'm about, off to do the christmas food shop now... joy.

MR_Punk · 23 Dec 2011 at 17:45

Anyone available for a game or two?

Gackt · 23 Dec 2011 at 17:54

GG Tim. Heskey again! What the hell! I can't believe Maicon got sent off either, second yellow for winning the ball. :confused:

And omg Ramires blocking my potentially game saving shot.
