Really? Do you have a source on that? Not heard that before

Do you have any source that says you lose stats with the chemistry cards, as that's the first I've heard of it.

look at BASIC

which is what every card starts off as

on 10 chemistry you get a +1 boost on everything

now look at sniper

you only get a +3 boost on shooting and dribbling

so if you go from basic to sniper

you get +2 shooting, +2 dribbling, but you get -1 on pace, passing defending and heading

therefore +3 cards only boost by +2 and you get 4 x -1 losses

+2 cards only boost by +1 and you get 3 x -1 losses


the boost cards seem rather useless now for midfielders as they need to be well rounded, i can see them being useful for CB's who you will sacrifice shooting, passing and dribbling for extra, pace, defense and heading.

other than that you may want to boost wingers pace, passing and dribbling.

and a strikers, heading, shooting and pace/dribbling

but for midfielders you wouldnt want to boost anything for fear of making them too one dimensional, you would want a well rounded mid and BASIC adds +1 to everything.
 
Ah right, I get ya.

I'm wondering how much of a difference these chemistry cards are really going to make... I mean, I know it's been stated a +1 SHO will not translate exactly to +1 for long shots, finishing, etc - so how much of an impact will they actually have?

I have a feeling that unless +3 from chemistry roughly equals about 7-10 to the actual stats under that category, it will be hard to notice a huge different between them.

I think it'll be a +1/2/3 to each stat within each category. If it's anything more it would make some of them vastly overpowered, especially the pace upgrades.
 
it's basically permanent boost cards.

if you used bronze boost cards last year like the +1 to every stat that equates to BASIC this year

basically free boost to every player.

whereas the other boosts, boost specific stats at the expense of +1 boost on others, so if you use a different boost, you actually lose some of your basic free boost.

these 2 are the best for strikers

Unless you're a 6 chem Eto'o :D

In an otherwise full chem team yeah he ripped me a new one on a few occasions. :(

Never tried myself. I only ever used 11 players on 9 chem.

Just got Zaha (RW) in a free silver pack. Only two on the store are at 35k and 40k BIN's. Worth sticking on auction now or waiting?

Lucky git. I'd keep. Player prices are low at the moment as there's no real demand for them other than consecutive profiterring through the tiers of players.
 
Am I totally missing something regarding player formations by the way? Can players fit into any this year, is it more chemistry based?

Yea any player can play in any formation, it is a lot more chem based so players need to be in the right position and have good links to those around them.
 
On the web app I have a CAM in a CM position and he gets 9 chem - does this mean we'll be able to get full chem for people out of position this year?
 
Does anyone know if you can buy packs on the web app yet? I got 2100 points spare so wonder is they a way to use these towards FIFA points and buy on the web app?

When he becomes "loyal" he'll get the full 10 chem. How much chem an out of position player gets is dependent on those around him.

You could get a CAM at CM with 9 chem in last years FIFA as well.

What :eek:

Even after playing around 700 games last year, I didn't know out of position players could get max chem. So many coins wasted on position cards :D

Yeah it really depends on who is around the player and how many links he has. For example: 4231 if you had Carrick and Cleverly next to each other as CDMs but with Cleverly in a CM position and then Rooney as CAM and Ferdinand as CB... you've got 3 nation and club links there which will be enough links to override the out of position modifier. I'm not sure on the exact formula on players out of position but it's easily possible to still get max chemistry.

Where it differs is that wide players cannot get max chemistry playing centrally and vice-versa.
 
looking through the formation they now have now to see they have a 4-3-3(5) which is no striker but playing a cf with the rw and lw pushed up almost as strikers

think the fact that we dont need formation cards this year i will keep most players i pull as i wasted so many coins last year chopping and changing formations and players and buying more formation cards .

i like the new manager card which when applied will it seems let any manager be a full chem on your league
 
Reading that the early release for UK actually starts midnight on Saturday instead, that's what the countdown says on the EA app on the Xbox. Hope it's the same for PS3 :)
