EA have done it again

Hello r/gaming

I come from the far away world of r/futmobile, and once again I am here with a post about EA’s very.. very shitty money making tactics.

Let me start off by saying this.. I do understand that gaming companies need to make money to provide great games. That makes sense. But what you are about to see is how EA took people’s money, then switched the rewards.

In FIFA mobile, you work your way up leagues by defeating other players. There are a number of leagues to work up, and at the end of each week there is a weekend tournament that you can play. This tournament requires special stamina.. which must be bought with real currency to get the bigger rewards. Depending on your league, the rewards may vary.. but are ultimately almost the same. When the weekend tournament dropped this was the reward. Now for anyone who has played FIFA Ultimate team, you may know that a 90+ ranked player is absolutely fantastic. But this isn’t just any 90+ ranked player... this is a Team Of The Year player. TOTY players are voted on by the community and EA as special players at the end of each year. Current calculations are putting that some of these players can cost upwards of $10,000 to accomplish.. so you can see everyone’s excitement to know that if they work hard enough, there is a chance they can acquire one of these players.

HOWEVER.. after leaving that reward up for an hour and a half or so.. they changed it to a CHANCE at a 90+ player.. AFTER taking everyone’s money. They legitimately waited an hour and a half.. got people’s money.. then took the guaranteed reward away.

This is absolutely pathetic. And it is not the first time they have done this on this game (check Carniball event 2017). They continue to RIP the fifa mobile community off, but continuously showing that there is no way to get good without paying $1,000’s of dollars.

If you want more information regarding this scandal, and many many more that have occurred to this gaming community. r/Futmobile has plenty of threads about it.

EA.. get your shit together.

Edit; ‘Chance’ meaning “more than likely not” or .000001% (speculated)
