Tbh I actually hate playing offline v the AI
Much prefer PES in that respect

But playing against someone on FIFA is brilliant I have to say

On PES last year online was crap!

Well I just want to get a feel for the game before I try any of that

EA Servers are mucked up..

The game is nice, you know how to start the ultimate team? I signed up with the ea season ticket but when i go to the screen it just has my name and the short form of my name

Have you entered the online pass?

I probably didn't, wait a bit

I expect to sign Chiellini tomorrow

lucky man, he is class! UT worked btw

Btw I was to ask, how on earth do you get coins to start trading etc.? I see people say they get daily gifts etc. but I signed up a few weeks to late and I don't have any coins.

Win matches

Okay so you play UT and after every match you get coins?

Yeah

Another way to make money is look for bargains online and sell later for more than you buy but when you're starting out don't bother as every player you buy will go straight into your lineup

Tip - try and go for players who prefer your formation for better chemistry

I'm such an idiot

A while ago I bought Abate for 3800

At the time, it was an ok price compared to what other people were paying for him

So I buy him for 2700 thinking a nice profit's on its way

Instead, I search for him and what do you know? People aren't even getting 3000 for him

Similar situation with Rossi

I really hate it when you're trying to buy a player and his price seems to be a lot higher than when you're trying to sell him!

So I've started bidding at 3k, 6 hrs with a buy now of 3500

And to think that I was only a couple hundred away from Chiellini

I'll have to wait a little longer!

Well I started and I have 1,500 coins...correction 3,024

I have Chiellini

On the downside, I just wasted 7500 on a bloody useless pack!

3024? You could buy a lot of decent players to get your squad up and running

In the late 70s overall

i have 80,000 coins but the players i want are way way too expensive inform podolski costs 180,000 neuer 165,000 gomez over 100,000 and robben is something like 325,000 the market is crazy

Did you buy the Ultimate Edition?

I preferred to take the proper approach

nope just matches and packs where i sell players, I havent bought a player in weeks.

btw what type of team do people hate playing against? For me its brazilian teams with their 5 star skill moves I keep on conceding penalties because a slightly mistimed tackle and they go flying not forgetting they are all very quick and good at dribbling

I'm not a dribbler

I focus on very quick, one-touch counter-attacks

Well the pack I bought was a HUGE waste of money

i got 2 packs and got falcao in both packs one time, sold both for 10k. Only got 1 inform in all my packs and it was some rubbish italian defender

Well my pack was a complete waste of money!!!!!

I had 7500 (a lot to someone who doesn't have an insanely good team)

And just throw it all away

what i like about the packs are contracts and fitness cards if you get a good player its a bonus
