Such a fundamentally terrible part of this game is that you want to try a card like this, you buy it to play rest of WL, you get 3 games out of it and it drops 500k. You lose 500k, which on this game is like 3-4 WLs best for most people, so in order to try a card in the game I just set my coin balance back a month, taking me even further away from the TOTY top tier cards. It's horrendous how badly designed this game is for the user - I mean they are literally taxing you for sales, TAX... on a football game!! The idea of untradables is so ****ing dumb, make everything tradable and add variety

fix FC24 in a few steps

• Tackle animation time increased to encourage precision and punish missed tackles
• Effective Tackle radius reduced
• Tackles from behind not effective and punished by cards consistently
• Improve left stick significantly to help break down low blocks and pressure tactics
• Improve GKs from distance, weaken GKs from inside 18
• Reduce pass accuracy on long balls, especially from within own box
• Reduce pass assistance
• Reduce animation time & input delay on passing and all inputs.
• Make corners MUCH harder to score from.
• Reward good manual defending
• Reduce defensive AI

Easy

This card is absolutely unreal as a 10. I packed Musiala and he doesn't come close to this American Rose. What a card. Up top with Morgan and Swanson - the holy trinity.

They made rewards for rivals worth playing for first time all year, now i'm pushing for elite and I cannot believe the level of depravity at the top of this game. I play old gen, cos its better overall footballing experience, I've just played 5 games in a row vs people who will only try to score from the flick up to bicycle glitch from the top of the box, or from corner glitches. These are quite literally the saddest weirdos on the internet and they're EVERYWHERE!! like what possesses you to log on to play a football game and no bother with anything remotely football related. Total garbage.

50% of this player base can't win a game without using corner glitches, you should all be embarrassed.

Officially the worst FIFA and football game ever. I just played somebody who made 76 tackle attempts, succeeded in 9 - he won. 65 missed tackles. There is no way this should ever be in a football game EA are absolute DOGSHT awful. Whats the point of defending if people have just learned to run and spam tackles, there's no punishment cos the game is so ****ing slow!! and half the time they bundle into the guy and get the ball anyway, or you turn away and end up in the tackle. So damn bad

It's 2023 - I just want a half decent football video game. Unbelievably this seems beyond humanity

Another patch where they've buffed defending into full force at the same time as making VVD etc affordable for all - GG EA. Why bother with a skill gap when you can design a game that you can just spam tackle, never control your defenders and let the AI and **** mechanics bail you out. On old gen this was a playable and fun game before - now it's a replica of FIFA 23. These new games in dev better step up and save us.

Running a Barca RTG - have a months worth of packs saved, Cruyff, Henry, Dinho, Bonmati IF, Araujo IF all in packs on Friday - along with Putellas and Hansen golds. Can't wait to pack none of them haha!

It just forces everybody to have the same teams built from SBCs rather than the huge variety of teams that would be possible without tax and with a less volatile market/more coins. I love making past and presents, themed teams, and you lose so many coins every time. Shouldn't have to pay for the pleasure of NOT being a full meta SBC sweat. So bored of playing against the same cards in 75% of WL. I get why people play this way it's just a fundamental flaw in the game design. Gatekeeping fun is really **** for a gaming company

Last two years I've gone 14-16 wins every weekend without fail, even hit a few 18 win rank 2s.... start of this year, the exact same, and often 10/10 in qualification. First 10-12 games were usually easy wins. I never spend a penny on this game, I don't skill or slave to the meta, i play high depth, manual defending and try to play quick passing football. Then about 2-3 weeks ago it all changed and now I struggle my way to 11-14 wins, many close matches against inferior players - I know new gen is garbage but old gen has never felt this unresponsive and anti-football for years. I hate it here

its a video game - the same people at EA make Ginola one of the best players of all time and put GKs at ST in promos. COPE HARDER!

You're just an incel incapable of hiding your misogyny

My favourite card this year is Kerolin Nicoli (legit better than Eusebio and toty messi for me) and I'm always struggling to get her on chem, so brought in Marta this WL. 18-2 with my full female team and she was absolutely magnificent. So much fun playing this game with different cards. Y'all out there with Eusebio, Mbappe, Best, VVD, Saliba.... life is better when you play with fun and different squads

If you play OLD GEN there's a simple rule for women defenders, short and lean body type is NOT IT. All others work great no matter the height, even short an normal. But Avg normal/lean are really good, if you've used Pasquereau or De Almeida from D1 Arkema you'll know these cards are absolutely fantastic, same with Le Tissier, Carmen Menayo, and the three TOTY's. Mapi Leon suffers from the same flaw as this card, cracked stats but body type is no good for CB. Something EA should fix next year because Leah and Mapi are top 5 players at their positions.

The incels are out in force I see. We don't want you here or anywhere, stick to the dark web you weirdo

Always loved his cards in FIFA, glad he's doing well at Real. Card is really nice, 18(13A/5G) contributions in 10 games at CAM/CF for my all spanish side. 'Cheap beast' for those who like to play nice ball and aren't pace merchants

Running a Barca RTG - currently in packs specials for Cancelo, Kounde, Ansu Fati, Hansen, Bonmati, Neymar, Cruyff, Henry, Dinho, Araujo - opened 150+ packs and 100 PPs - not even packed a usable gold like Putellas. Been a fun week. Not to mention my 6 Icon packs were all garbage.

Pack weight this year is so miserable. 14-18 wins every WL, 9-1/10-0 in qualifiers, never pack anything but fodder. No idea how to get my coin balance up at all. This time last year I'd packed multiple 200-**** cards and was at around 3m for TOTS. This year struggling to break 1M. Cannot pack anything. Awful game design. 10-0 in qualies gets you about 40k from 175k worth of packs. sigh

This game right now is absolutely atrocious. Defending was so good in the early game, bad defending got punished over and over - now you get players with every man in the box, never touch their CB except to spam tackles. Just played a kid who press tackle more times than completed passes, VVD getting the ball from 5 yards behind my player with the ball at their control, just totally ridiculous. IRL great defenders almost never make tackles, VVC once made like 3 in a whole season or something. Honestly EA can create a good football game, they just ALWAYS have to ruin it to cater for the idiots

Let me tell you, unless you're a streamer/pro player, if you're going 20-0 every weekend, you're probably losing in life

+1 passing too high for the CDM EVO. F you EA!

17 games 26 goals and 5 assists - she's great. Even better dropping a griddy against the Davies fanboys.

70+ packs saved. Barca RTG - Araujo IF, Bonmati IF, De Jong, Putellas specials, Henry, Dinho, Cruyff specials, Cancelo IF, Ter Steg IF - likely all in packs. So pumped but will probably pack 0 of them

Love Sawa, loved her base and the SBC is class - but 1.2 mill player being outclassed every game by this god. Love him what a card.

Showed off her 5 star wf and finesse today - such a class player

Game isn't great - but been very playable on old gen most of this year. Been a couple of rough weekends but nothing like this WL. Awful gameplay, which only helps to amplify the rats. I lost to a guy who scored 4 from 4 corners, faced 3 people doing the rainbow flick bicycle glitch and one guy who literally did step overs with every player every time they touched the ball like a deranged maniac.

Can we just have a game with decent coding, good servers and end this god awful franchise.

I'd have dropped 1MIL on this evo. Absolute GOD. Amazing IRL too.

Update - 16 matches, 11 goals, 16 assists playing CAM/False 9. Out performing my Swanson, who is great too. Such a sick card, amazing passes.

I run a Barca RTG and use her gold off the bench to replace Rolfo, she's excellent - this evo will walk straight into the side ahead of Rolfo and be incredibly good. If you're having doubts about doing her, this card will be phenomenal I am sure.

Haha that's how I feel!

16 Icon packs - not a single W besides Xavi who I love but most would hate. Just did 83x20 and got Kroos 86 and an 85. I have two accounts and I have not packed anything all year, nothing. Every ****ing team I face has min 2 first owner gods in it. So annoying

Unbelievable CM for me 41 games, 13 goals and 27 assists.1 contribution per game from CM! 14-2 in champs and she's cooking. Hunter chem style, old gen goat.

Dunno what they've done to this game on old gen, it was playable for a good while but it's aa ****ing mess. Lag is back for first time in years and tackling on this game is so so so so so so so dumb. Tackles from behind work better than proper tackles, yet shouldn't be viable at all, you can just spam tackle and get away with it 60 attempts to like 6 tackles and not be punished, yet you can tackle cleanly and never get the ****ing ball. VVD is a magician, can get the ball in any situaiton, zero skill - just hit tackle. MAKE DEFENDING HARD FFS EA!!

Controversial take, but if you're not skilling she's basically as good as Mia Hamm. Play them both up top and she has a higher output to Hamm. Lethal.

L715 - your existence on this thread is heartwarming. I will no longer be using/supporting futbin (due to the absolutely abhorrent comments and lack of moderation) but it was nice to see somebody with a rational and compassionate viewpoint. I'm ashamed to play a game that has such a disgusting player base.

FUT champs experience right now on PS4 - still no penalty indicators so endless people giving away pens without any consequence, there's at least 3-4 impossible to defend corner glitches - oh and the servers are burning in the sun. GREAT FUN, GREAT COMMUNITY!

Did anybody else get baited to pre-order Ultimate Edition after August 21? I got a message in FIFA 23 offering me the Ultimate Edition INCLUDING HERO PACK in mid September, so I though **** it why not. And now they're saying only pre-orders before Aug whatever it was - but I only pre-ordered due to the explicit offer of the Hero Pack. Absolute scam artists as always.

My god the corner kick bozos on this game this year is absolutely ludicrous. Y'all really need that extra win in champs so bad so you can buy another Drogba and just run corner glitches all your life? Really? Drogba has ruined this game, just cheap, easy goals for people with zero skill who log on to try glitches because they cannot fathom any other part of the game. Weirdos the lot of them

Anybody wanna get paid to play squad battles for me and work on a bunch of evo''s?

Pathetic fragile misogynist baby. You think women who play EAFC don't deserve to play with their footballing heroes? Sad, sad little boy.

Why did they remove 'drop between defenders' player instruction!?!? So weird. I used that in most of my favourite formations and have no idea why they got rid of it.

Absolutely. It's no surprise that the majority of men spending their time on FUT are bottom of the barrel incels.

If like me you did not get your pre-order content UCL pack. Go to PS support and demand a refund, ideally you will be offered a full refund, which you can then use to buy the Ultimate edition again at 49.99 and get another 4600 fifa points. This is what I did this week. £40 back and 4600 points. Makes up for the lack of UCL pack

I've messaged people about this before and they say insane things like ''nothing in life comes for free'' - there's a lot of broken people in the world for whom kindness isn't part of their worldview. It's frustrating but you never know what another persons reality looks like.

Ironically the guy who did it was in rivals and he was losing to lower his level so that he could win easier for his EVOs lol

Honestly - she doesn't miss - she's insane. The 83 is cracked, 87 is going to be unreal. So hyped

This card is absolutely bonkers. I love Tiki-Taka so my two accounts are Barca RTG and Spanish RTG, some crossover of course - this card has more goals/assists to games than my Barca Hansen playing in the same position but on different accounts. I don't know how that is possible but this card is absolutely sensational - at everything. 11k lol

Great comment, incredible card. I love Pina Claudia.

41k for this absolute beast - what is EA cooking. Love it

I love Jude - I'm not a Barca fan. Just like doing concept teams

This card is absolutely sensational for me. I use a full womens team with her at DM or CB depending on formation and she's phenomenal at both. Wins the ball cleanly all the time, amazing interceptions for a short queen, just an absolute steal for 200k and perfect link with Oberdorf. Think this card can play at CM, DM, CB and RB. Rank 3 / Old Gen

Hunter.

29 matches. 17 goals. 35 assists. She's so good.

I've started playing her at RCM in a three and she's unreal going forward too - scoring plenty. Absolutely godly this card is.

Wanna email me - cartwrightmagnus7 @ gmail

moron

Same. It's the worst game they've put out.

I run a Barca RTG/EVO and so I had no choice but to do him. 12-3 in champs at the moment, he's played 8 scored 13 and 4 assists. Smoother on the ball than I imagined, especially as the new patch has made defensive AI a little weaker, he's been cooking 1 on 1. Plays RF/RST and finishing has been impeccable so far. Praying they at least get the draw this weekend!

140k for the best creative midfielder in the game. In my Barca RTG he's absolutely impossible to replace, does everything brilliantly - way better at defensive work than you might think, incredible passing and dribbling paired with terrific attacking AI. Most importantly he makes the game much more fun and an enjoyable experience. Love him.

Guarantee this dude has a tiny ****

why are women not in red picks?! absolute disgrace EA!

Pushback is simply a demonstration of the fragile masculinity of this moronic player base. the same people who cannot imagine gifting wins, quit at 1-1. Women in FUT is the best addition for a long time and could have a significant and lasting impact on the women's game that goes far beyoond video games. GG's EA!

Just saw - such a fraud. Is De Jong confirmed SBC?

Sold her today for 18k but as soon as she dipped back to 9k I picked her up again - she's absolutely insane. Kind of like a Llorente/Kante hybrid. Can play all over the park. I packed Goretzka, Camavinga, Tchouameni - none of them come close.

Yes absolutely - the skill gap should be your ability to defend manually and to create attacking movements and patterns. Not your ability to let VVD do all of the defending for you or learning un-defendable corner glitches. It genuinely felt more like this in the early game. There was a lot of high scoring games and bad defending, but now there is no room and the defensive AI and tackle animations have become ludicrously OP

79 games 45 goals and 70 assists. I cannot find anybody who comes close for under 100k at CAM/CF. Love her.

So blessed to get this card - probably my first and only top tier icon pull in 4-5 years - 54 games 106 contributions at CAM. Working on Eusebio and have just bought Bobby Charlton to make an insane frontline. Such a pay to win game this year, these cards are so OP vs regular promo/golds.

9.9/10 - perfect card - only wish he had a W or ST position alternative.

I'm 15-4 this WL and EVERY defeat I have lost only due to corner goals and corner glitches. You can be bang average at every aspect of this game and just perfect corners (which is genuinely pathetic IMO) and that is all that matters. Warra skill gap EA!! congrats! Same **** every game, last year bicycles and this year so many ways to score from them that are UNDEFENDABLE

No penalty ring on PS4 in champs still - absolute disgrace of a company. They literally added a patch and did not fix THE most glaring issue on PS4. I'm 10-1 in Champs despite missing 8 pens now. This company is so so bad,

Running a full british women's team and my god this card is absolutely lethal playing up top with Lauren James. Left foot is LETHAL - absolute bargain at this price. Great dribbling, good strength and passing, top top top finishing and movement. Rank 2-3 player, old gen.

• They said the same about tennis when Serena and Venus asked for equal pay. Look at them now.
• God can be many things to many people or nothing at all. It's an unprovable leap of faith and belief and nothing to do with football. That said many popular religions were created for and continue to promote the patriarchy and misogyny.
• Have you ever heard the absolute garbage that comes out of CR7's mouth? MANY male footballers have done awful things in their life and they do not have the same hate on this site. That is a huge double standard and shows the REAL reason people want to hate Megan.

72 games, 67 goals, 54 assists. This card will never leave my team, she's insane - once these stats get boosted with IF or EVOs forget about it. Absolutely unreal card. Another 10-0 in qualifiers. For comparison Oshoala has 53G and 25A in the same time. I feel like I'm the only one using her which makes it even more special.

It's basically a guaranteed goal. It's very easy to do and 90% plus will go in.

You've made a helluva an argument

insane

To be fair those Sarriegi EVOs are top top tier. This guy gets it

it's okay - just like 3-4 weekend leagues to make it back lol

I agree - but I think they do not know how to fix those issues. Apologies for the spam on my second post - futbin acting weird.

Update. 122 games, 190 goals, 53 assists, playing on 2 chem recently and just bagged 5 against Rio and TOTS Dias - I got Messi from the glitched pack and she outperforms him by MILES. I cannot believe how good this card is.

Holy hell! She is her!!

7-1 in champs with my all Spanish side and she has scored 4 goals in 3 of those games. Taking down POTM Mbappe's left right and centre. Knew she'd be good because her gold was class but still shocked at just how insane this 86 is. Love her!

You wanna know how to tell this card will be incredible - the 82 still bangs them in whilst completing the EVO. This 87 (Actually an 89) will be usable til tots.

Hagi, Veron, Crespo, Schmeichel, Keane, Pires and Nesta... get in!

lol

Not on twitter?

I play it because I love football and want to play football - but every year it becomes less about football IQ and more about being a total ****ing moron.

play old gen - opposite has happened.

76 games, 123 goals, 30 assists - only player that comes close in terms of output is Eusebio. I cannot believe how insane this card is with these stats. She doesn't miss.

She plays up top with that hyped Armstrong EVO and 93 Garrincha and she's WAY better than both of them. Such a slept on card.

Update - 112 games, 68 goals and 91 assists!! for 14k!! She is amazing. With a hunter her finishing is fantastic.

Currently 14-2 in champs and this kid is absolutely unbelievable for me still. Only three players in the game have her playstyle plus (pinged passes) and her passes are 100% elite - I have Bonmati in the team, she is incredible, but Lavelle's passes are clear. Goated card, really hope she gets a special soon. Club legend already.

And there's me with Gattuso, Keane, Laudrup x2, Klose, Baggio, Trezeguet, Hagi x2, Linekar, Lampard and Shearer.... seems fair.

54 games 71 goals and 29 assists - 100 contributions in 54 games. I sold Bobby Charlton and replaced him with her - they have an identical ratio and she's almost as prolific as Eusebio.

This card will be evo-able again in the near future. Absolutely unbelievable. Has so many good traits but the 96 stam and relentless combo is so so clutch. She's as good in 120th min as the 1st mind.

All these youtubers whining about the New Gen game - looks dreadful. Meanwhile on old gen its legit a fun football game. I just went 10-0 in qualies after going 16-3 in WL with a full barca RTG playing this GOD of a card at False 9 in a 4321 - 35 games, 32 goals 30 assists. I cannot wait to EVO this beauty and give her a boost. Just loving that you can cook with cards like this (that I've not played against one time) and play decent football if you want to. Zero skill moves, just glorious tiki-taka. Game should be better but get off New Gen version guys, old gen is clear!!!

Playing up top with Zico and Eusebio - outscoring both and not even fully evo'd yet. Hilarious how good this card is.

Packed the 92 in last weeks Icon PP and then just had him pop out of my 87x3... dupe theory is so real. Loved the 92, small upgrade but way better playstyle+ looking forward to playing with him.

This kid gets it. I even saw Auzio did a attackers tier list and didn't even include her. So bizarre. If this was a card from any mens league it would be so so hyped.

19-1 this weekend with Labonta, Flemming, Pickett, Dunn, Marta, Kerolin and Lavelle. Loved this card, will surely fit an evo soon too.

Pretty happy with my team and had no SBCs I wanted to do so I full sent this TOTY - every card in the club into upgrades, every fodder card into exchanges, every crafting SBC and every dally upgrade. Bled the club to the absolute ground, everyone but the main team and bench has gone.

Had 300 packs saved beforehand too.

Results - 2 x Kane HM and 2 x Trent HM.

Disappointed not to get anything but having got Modric last year without even trying I figured this wouldn't be my year.

Good luck to all those still grinding

Was ****ed about my eternally bad champs rewards, but did make around 300k with fodder and a TOTW from 18 wins. Just enough to buy Mead. Holy **** what a card

Why does it say his body type is 'Ronaldinho'?!'

Better than Hansen. Hanson. She's amazing in game

I'm really not worried about Allah mate lol

I agree. Am running a Barca RTG and wanted to try her out, and can say she's good but not as good as Oshoala who is MUCH cheaper. Interesting that futbin has this card as an 84 too. think i'll save my coins for her TOTY which I imagine will be crazy. For now I'm rocking with Oshoala, and Pina and Felix's EVOs.

And yet I am not American.
