You know the drill, more of the same. Who's on the early access?

I dont. I havent bought it yet. Ill just the proper version
Does anybody have access to any of the old Fifa? I want to collect some Pro Clubs data from Fifa 22 and earlier. You cant download them from the PS store anymore so it seems you need the disc. I dont even know if you can get into the pro clubs section and if the stats are still there
They've included the CBS for some reason, guessing they scanned it when we were in the playoff final just in case. Suck it Molton Road.
Do you lot play games or just open virtual packets of stickers and watch men come through curtains?
I'm a twit

Likely wont bother for a while.
For 23 I ended up getting it in November when the itch came back. Then for 24 I didn't pre order but evos got me back in the door. Seeing how they handled those earlier in the year, and not expecting them to be any better this year, I will be holding off. The "new" features dont feel as much of a leap forward as evos and play styles last year.
Personally I always like "grinding the menus" more enjoyable than playing the game.
So doing SBC's to get packs to open them.
I'm not getting it this year (until it's free) as I just bought Madden.
I've got it, ready for early access etc. 20th Sept, right?
I play career mode exclusively, and I'm stupid enough to hope some of the bugs that are reported on a weekly basis will be addressed. You have to have hope I suppose
I've gone for Madden (for the first time in several years), so I think I'm taking this year off FIFA (until it hits GamePass next summer). I did enjoy 24 for what it's worth. Building a ridiculous Fulham P&P squad for the first edition ever was great, but towards the end I barely played the game and was just grinding the menus to kill time.
It'll give me opportunity to play more of other games (finally can get round to playing Yakuza, RDR 2, rerun every Halo campaign as it's been years, Far Cry 5/6, etc.).
As always, i game share the game on day one and mainly play Pro Clubs until TOTS comes out then ill dive into UT.
This year though. I will start Ultimate team with these rules.
Evo Wolves players Only
No coins spent
Looks like there is a good chunk of United bronze cards. Would always recommend having a couple of each on the trade pile. Last year Mainoo, Shoretire and Bennett would fly at the sniff of an evo.
Somehow they will put a stop to cards like that going extinct or do something so we cant profit from holding cards. They did it with MM, league sbcs, etc. They will do it with evos
Making every pack with a silver or bronze it in untradeable would be one way.
imagine if they got rid of BPM.
Pitch notes: https://www.ea.com/games/ea-sports-f...-launch-update
As always, let’s kick this one off with the big question: When can I jump into EA SPORTS FC™ 25?
Companion & Web App Launch: Starting from 19 September, you’ll be able to kick start your Football Ultimate Team Club on web, with a refreshed Companion App dropping on 20 September. Players who are re-joining us from Football Ultimate Team 24 will also get a little something extra with returning user rewards, which I’m pleased to announce are back for Football Ultimate Team 25!
Early Access Launch: If you’ve pre-ordered the Ultimate Edition of EA SPORTS FC™ 25, you’ll be able to jump into the game from midnight (local time) on 20 September on Console and from 5 AM BST on 20 September on PC. EA Play* members will be able to play up to 10 hours of FC 25 via the trial, while EA Play Pro (PC only) members will get unlimited access to EA SPORTS FC™ 25.
Worldwide Launch: If you’ve pre-ordered the Standard Edition of EA SPORTS FC™ 25, you’ll be able to jump into the game from midnight (local time) on 27 September on Console and from 5 AM BST on 27 September on PC.
The champs changes are an incredibly cynical way to get people to spend money on packs.
My money is on them relaxing them very shortly into the game, this side of Christmas at least.
15 wins needed for upgraded Division Rivals rewards is such arse and I confidently predict everyone will ultimately hate it.
Yeah, that seems the most severe change. More than doubling it to receive the same rewards whilst moving a bunch of objectives into friendly modes. Likewise making qualifiers 3/5 is going to be savage.
Some good stuff like making top tier rewards really good and reducing the SB games down.
Web App moved to today.
Right, plan is to get home from work tomorrow, have a few hours kip and then hit it for a bit on launch (probably only to see the servers die). Won't be starting on the web app.
Dawned on me that now I'm back on Xbox I might have the 'moving' to New Zealand option. Does this still work?
Based on my twitter feed, yes. I havent been on reddit though.
Greetings from New Zealand
Excellent. I hear it's lovely there this time of year.
Rattled through some SB games to clear off some objectives. Didn't pack anything of note aside from a Bruno and a Mazraoui (who looks pretty decent).
Tactics seem like they could be interesting (setting players at corners seems cool) but I didn't get into the new game mode yet. There's some bug I keep getting when going to the store which requires killing the app and restarting
Gameplay is a bit floaty and the camera still feels a bit off, but otherwise it's back once again for the renegade master.
Rush is, as suspected, utterly fucking horrific.
You pick a player, go into a four on four match with a stereotypical forrin commentator bleating all over the shop, you play the game, which lasts forever and it has absolutely no connection with your actual ultimate team apart from earning you points towards XP. But, but, but, the one game I played we won 8-2, I scored 4 goals and I got 2,200 Rush points and I need 70,000 of the fuckers to complete the objective related to it for some packs and XP. 35 games of that shit as an absolute minimum in 7 days? Kill me now.
Oh and my 4,600 FIFA Points are nowhere to be seen.
Rush sounds horrendous
Will the FIFA points come in when it hits release date for where you genuinely are?
Suspect so, I'll find out in 21 minutes.
Got the points, but I'm already bored.
This is supposed to be the most fun time of the year!
Didnt realize Vidal as back in the game. His stats are nice for a silver card outside pace. Might be a decent evo investment.
I got more engaged with it before I turned in, but I really don't like the changes they've made so far and Rush is piss stain on the entire game - we're stuck with it as well for this entire cycle at least as there's no chance of them aborting it inside a year given the focus they've put on it.
The fact the linked it to UT means they wont abandon it like that Volta shit.
The requirements for that Alaba SBC do not bode well.
It's just to get people to rinse their points/spend for the sake of completing it for "prestige"
