The jumbo gold pack is more disappointing than Biabiany.
I just don't understand it @ha032742 . We started off with an untradeable 50k pack, bit sad that it was untradeable, but atleast it was cheap. Then a tradeable 45k pack, solid. The 84+ packs are whatever, you can get lucky, but you could also get an 84.
And then the last 2 days we got an untradeable 25k pack and a tradeable Jumbo Gold pack? Why downgrade in the middle of the promo
It's all so half arsed. Packs in store, a couple of objective players and the odd player SBC with a daily SBC for a usually pish pack. Rinse and repeat every single promo, bar probably Future Stars with the upgrade objective players.
I didn't care for the Future Stars objective players, mostly because the end product wasn't worth it. It wasn't a case of doing lots of objectives and getting an amazing player, you were doing more objectives than before to get a calibre of player you get from regular promo objectives anyway.

No idea why they stopped with those upgradeable players. They were engaging and new. So typical they stopped after one promo.
Whoever was the bloke they added this year that started giving us ❤️❤️❤️❤️ packs for SBCs, untradeable packs and this tosh can honestly ❤️❤️❤️❤️ right off.

They have done this in most (?all) promos this year...the best SBC pack is usually on the first night (when most people would be opening packs so engagement is high anyway) and get worse at the weekend (particularly on Sunday) before we then we get middling packs the rest of the week to finish the promo off.
They've gotten so poor with their promo picks this year, they never look outside the top 5 leagues and they've stopped including goalkeepers in promo teams altogether.
Let's not beat around the bush the game's been so bad this year that FIFA fans like us who've been around since 10/11 UT are thinking about quitting.
It's not even EA, Madden and NHL are good games, it's solely the FIFA team that's running the most popular sports game into the ground.
Another thing I don't understand.
It always gets brought up "yeah, but people come back to Fifa no matter what. NHL and Madden need to do some great stuff to keep people engaged.". But Fifa still got a content team and those people surely need to work to get paid so why not do something productive in your working time? Why do this half arsed bs

Exactly, was easily the best new content they did this year and as with all things good they take it away coz they hate to see us enjoying things.

Because people will keep coming back no matter what
I won't be getting 21 unless they bring back Icon SBCs and even then it's tenuous. I usually only get 1 or 2 before taking a break anyway. Been playing FUT since 12 but didn't buy 15, 16, or 19.

Then you don't need a content team. Sack them, who cares really.
But if they got a 9-5 job then they should do more than chillin and drinking coffee.

Until they don't, all the big games have this mentality until it drags them under. People didn't keep coming back to COD, Battlefield and all the other big franchises, they innovated or they died. COD brought Warzone and Battlefield went to obscurity.
Apart from Messi's Potm's and Neymar's Potm, we've had just one SBC this year over 800k.
That is Hazard.
Let that sink in.
Yeah but removing icon sbc’s was a great feature to make icons more accessible and stuff, right guys? Grinding is really worth it with jack ❤️❤️❤️❤️ to complete and nothing to work towards. Love how they handled it and take our constructive criticism on board.
Rated E For Everyone.

tbh not all FIFA 17 content was great. Premium SBC's were fantastic, but it wasn't all perfect.

99 pace
Even tho he's 98 pace IG

It wasn't perfect but it was also the very first year of SBCs, it shouldn't be getting worse.

Mate we got objectives for an untradeable mega pack, stop complaining.
Got so much sbc fodder, I literally completed Ozil because he's an Arsenal player even though I'll barely use him if at all 😂
I mean how awesome would it be if they gave us a 5*5* Son or someone similar with no expiry even if it was 1.5/2m

Probably 0 next year.
