Heads up to people - there's a few different objectives that reward 50K and 100K packs. They're for stuff like 100 finesse goals and 500/200 goals/assists. You can do them in SB on easiest difficulty and score 50 goals a game. Even easier is to play online mystery ball friendlies against the AI on the lowest difficulty. The speed boosts mean you can score a ridiculous amount of goals (goal multipliers don't count though unfortunately). Definitely not something that can be done in one night but easy one to zone out to a stream or TV show to and grind out. I imagine the packs are all untradeable but will help you smash out all the early game SBC's, which are like printing money usually.

Thanks for the heads up, I barely ever look at objectives etc but I'll make an effort do to these. I hate playing the AI

Are we into pre release now, thought it was 10 hours, but I am at 16 now.

As usual I hate loads of the game, like bits of it, still playing. :rolleyes:

What version should I order? Just the standard digi one? I don’t see anything good the champions or ultimate gives you being worth it?

Have you seen Bateson's team already?

Mbappe - Eto'o (mid)
Neymar - Salah
Pogba - Kante
Mendy - Ramos - Varane - Carlos Alberto (mid)
Courtois

He also packed Messi, so I imagine he'll replace Salah.

He's changed it up:
R9 (Mid) - Eto'o (Mid)
Neymar - Messi
Kante - Gullit (Mid)
Reguilón - Ramos - Varane - Carlos Alberto (Mid)
Courtois

Still has Mbappe and IF Ben Yedder on the bench.

But he's looking to change it to:
R9 (Mid) - Eto'o (Mid)
Neymar - Messi
Kante - Gullit (Mid)
Mendy - Ramos - van Dijk - Carlos Alberto (Mid)
Cech (Mid)

That's a 90 rated team.
He's down to just 6m coin and 2m Fifa Points though.

WL is gonna be such a struggle for him, hope he gets good red picks...

Robbo · 6 Oct 2020 at 13:34

Packed Varane and sold him, up to 650k, not sure what to do...

Market is in a dip right now imo, either invest or buy your team.

Champs edition if you want it today, that's what I did.

Just downloading the 10hr trial. I only ordered the standard version this year as going to try and keep away from the points
Few good WL finishes should set anyone up nicely to begin with.

Good to have you back. I'm not sure how achievable the RTG will be with Rivals how it is/will be, I really wish they'd introduced other play modes/leagues/cups etc.

Bundes has a very strong starter squad, would allow you to keep a decent chunk of coins for investing.

Something like this, play 4231 in game.

Lewa is the only marquee player in there, and wouldn't be my first choice if I'm honest but Bundes is a bit light on strikers.

Thanks, I was actually looking at Bundesliga. I quite fancy getting Sané.

Is Lewa not a bit slow? I've only played a few games online so far, so not too sure on the meta stuff yet. People are going for Haaland over Lewa I think.

Rids · 6 Oct 2020 at 18:00

Lewa is a bit slow, meta does seem to be pace this early on, but should be a solid investment too given he will be in TOTW this week.

I'm a little tempted to get Fifa 21 after being convinced I wasn't going to bother at the end of Fifa 20.
I just get wiped out by the constant grind. I guess they need al lthe stuff for the people that do the content easily, but it takes me a while to get objectives done, if I can even manage it and I never seem to have the players to do the big SBCs.

What I'd like to do is get better at trading, but I've no idea how to do that for decent profits.

Thanks. I dropped off 20 around start of April iirc. Played my placements and got to div 5. So put my 60k into a brazil/bundes hybrid.
