|| FIFA 17 Thread || Release Date-- Sept. 27 || Demo is out

This. I shoot on Semi Assist, post. I shoot on Auto Assist, crossbar. :smh:

Anyone here make it to the FUT weekend league consistently care to share your tactics and team? Ive made it to the finals 3 times in the daily knockouts since it started and haven't been able to qualify at all. Im 25-7-6 in divisions but I always feel the connection to be **** in FUT Champs and Draft matches. I dont have time to qualify on the weekdays, maybe a day at the most so maybe I just force it most of the times not knowingly.


This was my squad I used last weekend. I've made gold II 3 times and silver 1 once when I didn't get to play all 40 games.

This game makes me so mad. I swear I'm good enough to make gold 1 and somehow get screwed out of it consistently.

This is my fitness squad. I don't play much with them in weekend league. Maybe 8 total times? Use squad fitness for the first team instead.

How is robben for ya?

I actually had IF Muller out there for most of the weekend. Got Robben late. He hasn't put much in the back of the net finessing with his left foot yet and he didn't play very quick.


Gave him a hawk chemistry style so hopefully he can play a little quicker and put some in the net.



To give you a short answer: I don't love him......yet.
 
Finally qualified for the Weekend League today!!! Played a 41212 (2)

Aguero-Dybala
Di Maria
Yaya-Krychowiak-Pastore
Clichy-Luiz-Silva-Aurier
Courtois

Breezed until the finals and had the game of my life. Went up 1-0 super early and played too safe and ended up going down 2-1. Late qualizer, went into ET and went down 3-2 real quick. Came back in the 114th minute and had a penalty shootout to determine who wins and advances. It ended 8-7 with me saving his PK. It was crazy.

I have POTM Sterling, Son and Hazard. I want to utilize a team around 2 of em come Friday. I'm aiming for Gold 3 so I can auto qualify for next week and cant wait. About to save me loads of bar money staying in this weekend :lol:

Here you go Rck. Invest in potential marquee matchups without putting in a lot of risk and obvious matchups. If you guess right on smaller matchups requiring less players on the market you'll strike gold. Even the usual derbies will make you profit if you invest early enough.

A huge one coming up in about 2 weeks is the BPL November Player of the Month. I can chime in on my advice since I have profited big the last 3 go arounds.

oh damn, I ever even thought of that tbh

good tip, feel free to chime/PM me even

every year it seems like I dive outside of my boring USA and MLS squads and by then its too late to figure out how to make coins.
These latest posts reminded me I do not miss FUT at all

@ me then bro
 
My personal shortlists for the BPL POTM in November from most highly and least likely goes

Diego Costa (Chelsea/Spain)
Victor Moses (Chelsea/Nigeria)
Harry Kane (Tottenham/England)
Jermaine Defoe (Sunderland/England)
Pedro (Chelsea/Spain)

I hope its not Moses he just won the Sky Sports POTM but it doesnt correlate to the Official Barclays POTM which EA goes by. Silver Nigerian players have already risen so we might have missed out if the award does go to Victor Moses.

Invest in a high rated BPL squad 83/84+, a Chelsea/Tottenham/Sunderland full squad with any informs of the teams if you can and a national squad with an inform that belongs to their nation. If EA goes by the past 3 POTM SBCs this is the recipe to go by. They threw us a curveball last one with Hazard with a 4th requirement that needs 2 players from each team Chelsea played/beat.

I think the money comes in from the in forms if you can guess right. The worst thing you'll lose out on if you guess wrong is a couple thousand maybe 10,000s of coins so this is very high risk. I'm banking big on Costa and Moses due to their goals/assists and how consistent they were in the month.

Also dont underestimate silver player requiremnets from each team, I have a feeling EA will continue to throw curveballs. You can invest on one player winning if you dont have much coin and if you have try to cover all candidates just in case. Its best to do this now before the actual candidates are announced because the hype and player prices that correlate to each player will skyrocket!

If anyone feels free to disagree just mention your nominees. I feel like its going to be another Chelsea player based on how dominant they were in the month of November. Also trying to cover all angles to profit and meet the requirements to get the special untradeable POTM card too!
 
Nomadic-Shouldn't have too much of an issue winning 18 games. Also I do not believe the quality of your squad makes a difference in the weekend league. I have played with 750k teams and I have played with 50k teams and I have won 21-23 games every weekend (qualified every weekend).

Good looks fam, I hope i can squeeze Gold 3 to requalify. I already know what im getting into and hope I can finish my chances because I cant defend for **** on this FIFA :lol:

Might just use my POTM cards and build a team around them to make them shine. I always try to overdo it sometimes with best players in every position but I think I'm gonna keep it simple and mix it around like you said.

Here are a few things I have learned that other people do to cheese weekend league:

Sit in ultra defensive from the go and chase from behind with midfielders,

Sprint past you with Cheesy *** cheap squads. Like I lose to cheap pace squads with my 700k team and outplay them.....
 
@ me then bro

lul I actually liked trying to snipe players for low and flipping or buying Irish and flipping for the St. Paddys tourny. But like Haze said, I spent imo too much money on coins/fp just to start all over next year, even though I hate micro transactions in games :smh:. And I know it's not always the case cuz I would make division 1 w/ a fairly cheap squad or cheese w/ a pacey squad, I didn't like the fact that its basically a pay to win mode. I will say that weekend league mode thing seems cool and the rewards seem like it is worth it but I hear it's a park the bus sweat fest :x

Knowing how greedy EA is, I feel like fut hurts the other modes since fut is a cash grab for them. Just copy and paste career/manager mode every year and focus solely on fut(glad they went to frostbite engine tho). Alex hunter thing was cool I guess and something new but very underwhelming when you look at myplayer on 2k or how I hear that master league and be a legend is for PES(havent tried it so cant say).

That being said I still buy the game every year :lol: but do my own personal boycott of not playing fut and spending even more than the 40 or whatever i dropped on the game already buying fp. I still remember packing Balotelli purple iMOTM card for the 2012 Euros after his performance vs Germany though :smokin
 
Oh I definitely don't spend any more money on FUT coins, etc.

I bought coins once and it felt dirty, plus now with EA catching more and more cheaters; its probably not worth it.

What I was talking about with @NomadicSole21  is clean and legit way of farming for coins.. and in the last 2 or 3 years I've started to scratch the surface of how to play the transfer market correctly (position change cards, specific players to create a monopoly on), but as I mentioned earlier, I always take too long till I start caring about how to make coins.

This year I wanted to start early

Man i thought EA announces the candidates on a Friday. I missed out on profiting off of Suso who was just in last weeks TOTW. He was going for discard nearly all week and now hes shot up to 18-19k because hes a Spanish In form and out of packs just today alone. Crazy rise in price but I would still highly recommend investing in him and other cheap Spanish in forms before their price goes up even more.

Costa
Pedro
Aguero
Jordan Pickford
Ibra
Matt Phillips

Those are our candidates for the BPL Player of the Month. Theres still profit to be made IMO. The reason Suso went up is theres most likely a requirement for an in form and since he's Spanish, he can plug into Costa or Pedro's requirements easily if either one wins. I would strongly recommend grabbing as many Suso's as you can afford before his price goes up. I can see him sitting at 30-35k right up until the announcement is made next friday.

Im banking on Costa or Pedro to win, im Weekend League tied this weekend so I'm gonna invest late, hopefully not too late. Im already up profit from 5 IF Suso's and a few IF Grimaldo's. I have about 15 Suso's in total now and just hoping it pays off next Friday!

All good fam, I started off the year pretty luckily, profited big from Sterling and Son's POTM SBCs, Embolo's and Mane's Ones to Watch cards and packs every now and then. Hoping this is the year I pull a Team of the Year Ronaldo or Messi :smile:
