Gaming FIFA 17

If Carrasco gets a upgrade which it looks like he will, you will then be able use IF Torres for the Suarez SBC, I bought 4 Torres cards when he was around 25k, he has already gone up to 29k now but he should go up even further if Carrasco gets upgraded.
 
Was lurking on the leaderboards just now. And I recognised the current #1 ranked player in the top 100. Turns out I played him not long ago. He barely beat me and I had sent him a salty message saying 'nice team, wish I had that pack luck' :lol:

Think that was just before my switch to 5-2-1-2. Spamming him now for a rematch since he's on but the bastard is not answering. But what the hell, if he can make #1 then so should I. I'm throwing my xbox out the window if I don't make top 100 this weekend.

Good call. Bought 3 of him. Hopefully it happens!
 
Just signed up on gamersaloon. People desperate to play me since I just signed up. Going to play a guy now for $8, lets see how it goes
 
Want to play a few games against me?

Yeah I'll give you a couple of games, not sure if I'll be on tonight as will more than likely be following football all evening.
You'll probably end up smashing me, you'll see how utterly hopefully I am at defending some games.
 
Oh for fecks sake. Played BugzFIFA in my 2nd game on gamersaloon :lol: he's currently #13 monthly worldwide. Was 1-0 up until the end of the game where Smalling cleared the ball away, hit Bailly and it went straight to Ramos who scored. He got me in extra time with a decent goal and won 2-1. I was so fecking close to winning that. Against the fecking #13 worldwide
 
Me too :) I got the info from fifa's reddit page, lots of people on there have bought Torres cards.
Yeah. Apparently the rating upgrades might automatically happen instead of new cards being released. Might try investing in a lot of Valencias, he is at 82 in the normal game so a +2 upgrade to his fut card would at least double his price I think. If not more.
 
He refuses to rematch me for less than 50 :lol: and acting like a prick in our xbox convo. Should I play him for 50 guys?

That sounds good, EA have been generous to united this year because we have a partnership with them so I can see them improving Valencia in fut mode.

Be careful though because if they release separate upgraded cards instead of changing the current ones then the current ones might drop a bit too.

Really? I find that hard to believe, that's what the OTW cards are for isn't it? It also encourages people to buy packs if a better version is out.

I can't see that happening. Not like ea to gift something to the consumers instead of making them pay for it.

If you truly believe it though I'd look at Rojo. Guaranteed a decent upgrade with his starting level and the form he's shown this season.

83 CB instead of 78 LB. Looks a good card.

I've finally opted to sell TOTGS 87 Gundogan and replace him with 88 IF Eriksson. There's a rumour Erikson's IF's will all get a boost because one of his stats on his first inform card is the same as his upgrade.

Well that went well. Gundogan sold almost instantly despite it being 355k, some 30k higher than the lowest BIN and I managed to pick Eriksson 88 up for 315k, 25k cheaper than the rest and only up for about 15 seconds when I searched. Lucked out completely.

Now got to hope his IFs are all boosted.

This guy on twitter gets the totw correct like a day before every time and definitely knows stuff and he thinks it might happen:

Yeah I'm actually going to do Rojo too. Maybe get one Valencia in just for my team, but I do feel like a 82 right back Valencia would go for like 10k instead of his current 3k. Though a 83 Rojo would surely go from 900 coins to like... 5k at least. Plus if it doesn't happen then what's the worst that happens, lose a hundred on each card? Rojo is much less risk I guess.

Probably boosting the value of a stack he owns.

I don't know what to do now :D I might go pick up a few Rojo's too just in case.
 
Hopefully my investments pay off by the time I play again in a few weeks. Currently in my transfer list I have 2 OTW Mane's, 3 IF Torres', 1 Valencia and 11 Rojo's. POTM Alli, Martial and OTW Pogba are the only cards I have in my squad basically. Really hoping the Mane's shoot up in price when they play Leicester, could be a goldmine. Shouldve done this when he was 100k but still potentially really good considering I cant play for a few weeks.

Basically hoping I can get to 1mil from those cards.
 
I reckon if true, Rojo and Mata will both get upgrades from our guys. Miki too maybe. Oh and Valencia obviously.
From the normal game, Rojo went to a CB and 83 instead of 78 LB, Mata went from 84 to 85, Herrera to 83, Valencia to 82, Rashford 77 I think, Shaw 81 (???), Smalling down to 83, Jones at 80 or 81... Though I wouldn't expect everyone. My guess would be Valencia, Rojo and possibly Herrera. Doubt anyone else will be. Have my doubts on whether the in game cards will actually go up, but getting Rojo's is pretty low risk so why not hope for the best.
 
Downgrades happening too this year apparently.

That's the rumour anyway. Might be worth collecting some Vardy, Musa, Smalling, Sturridge and Azpulicueta cards as their old cards will be the equivalent of a IF-.5
 
Yeah got only crap informs but was enough to buy De Gea so not complaining

I kid you not I just pulled IF Martial & IF Carrasco and some other French league player from my totw pack!

Today has been a good day!!

I've got fecking 3 of them in my first 11. If their card actually drops as is suspected with the increases I'm screwed!

EDIT: I think some of them drops might be due to positional changes aswell though. Like Azpilicueta to cb and Milner to LB.
 
Just had a look at getting Rojo and his price seems to have shot up already. Gone to like 2k
 
I need to play a few games against decent opposition today before the wl. @P-Nut0712 you on later today?
Anyone else decent on xbox? And to you people who read this forum without posting/being a member - add me on xbox, GT:Pentame if you fancy a couple of fut games later today.

Missed this earlier. Mrs family are up this weekend first time I'll get on is Saturday night:-/
