i'm from the uk and never got one so not all UK and US customers are getting one
That's not the point. If people outside UK and US could get it, we're not saying everyone should get it. But UK and US people CAN get selected, anyone outside it cannot. Yes, EA, that represents your userbase perfectly. Idiots.
I have logged into my account pretty much everyday on fifa 17 not played as many games as others 1400 in total and in the U.K. founder since the start of fut , registered with E.A club member everything and not got one this year or any other year so it's not a given that all U.K. Players are getting them

Everyone should get access anyway, PES allows everyone ..

I demand atleast an explanation. But knowing EA we won't get sh**.
Worst thing is we aren't even allowed to hear or see anything of the beta lol

well, as a Dutch guy, I was already chanceless from start. You can have a blast in the beta section fo this forum though, ballboys expecting codes and such.
Wow. Just wow. I hope at least some (active) people from this forum got in, and hope they can give some feedback that will improve the game! Ill just have to wait for the pre release
I'm pretty sure the main reason EA use those (UK/USA) restrictions is due to the game only having an English Language option during the Beta.
I know there's a lot of people from other countries who understand English (some even speak it as a first language), but I think that's the main explanation why most nations get excluded during the beta, but I'm just a gamer... so maybe one of the EA reps here would be better placed to give an official answer on that.
Whether there are any other reasons (like Beta server locations etc), I don't know, but the online play is usually very good during the Beta's... although the servers don't exactly have much load on them during a Beta, so nobody is likely to experience the actual end products online gameplay until the game has been released and the servers are given a more substantial load.

I'm not exactly feeling the release hype this year, (I'm not planning to buy the game)... but as someone who has played thousands of games a year for several years and received a code (Ultimate Team)... I'll be sure to give the Beta a thorough test and offer some constructive feedback to EA, hopefully they'll listen.
To be honest though there is a huge difference between the Beta and the gameplay that you'll experience a few patches down the line... judging by Fifa 17, the Fifa 18 Beta will be the best gameplay experienced in Fifa 18... and the gameplay for those who buy Fifa 18 will no doubt just progressively become less playable as time goes by (due to more and more people buying the game and logging in to the servers).
Rated E For Everyone.

No thanks
At least you had a chance. Unlike us outside UK and US. RACISM!!!!!
They're account specific I thought?
They are
wouldnt go that far but agree its a ******* disgrace.
Its a **** joke .. so many pro players from my country (germany) and other countries not included for sure.
How about ALL countries except UK and US?
Yeah i was just thinking about a reason why they gave the codes just to us/uk people

E-mail random people and you use it in the "redeem codes" area in the PS store.

The only thing that's random about Fifa is the gameplay.
Ikr...
