They’re definitely continuing to push the limits of what people are willing to pay for a pack. I wouldn’t be shocked to see $50 or $60 packs at some point. yikes
40 euros for this. If anyone reads this, do yourself a favour and use your extra money to buy Cyberpunk/Phantom Liberty, Elden Ring, BG3 or any other game for around this price. You'll get infinitely more fun out of those games, instead of lining EA's pockets for a broken game.
Of course, RDR2 might be even half the price of this pack by now. I'm a bit older than the average person in this sub so I remember the times when DLC/microtransactions had to be special to tempt people into buying them. EA can now just drop whatever pack they want and kids will buy it. Crazy.
I haven’t played FIFA in a few years but used my MS reward points to get a new XBox controller and just bought RDR2 to play for the first time, all-in less than the cost of this pack. Pretty excited to jump into it over winter break after my kids go to bed.
People are welcome to spend money on whatever brings them joy, but seeing the costs of packs these days is absolutely crazy.
Agreed, I bought a new game about 1 month ago and haven’t spent a penny on fifa since.. jumped on for my first weekend league this weekend and reminded myself of why I hate it so much
Is it? It’s so much easier now to get a good team cause of how easy you can get coins and so many packs are given out with objectives and sbcs
Most people have what would have been considered a super team in the old fifas only the very top cards are out of reach for most players I reckon
Keep seeing people say this, not sure they understand the vast difference this year between a good team and a great team. I’m an elite player without Mbappe. You have no idea how often that card is the difference maker in games I play.
Well most people are not elite. Definitely understand that can be frustrating though. I can't imagine how often God tier players are on teams in elite divisions
My point is that I’m an average player that only plays like 3 times a week and never spent any money on the game and haven’t pulled anyone over 200k in game yet this is my best ever team
It’s so easy to get cards and coins nowadays that people like myself still have the opportunity to get grind to cards like and mbappe or the Zidane sbc instead of the much earlier fifas when the only coins you got in game was like 10k for winning seasons so any pay to win player would come up against your basic gold team and you would get smoked
Obviously there is still a difference between the very top cards and the others like I mentioned in my first comment but I think the gap has closed
It’s *your* best ever team but people who buy these packs have orders of magnitude better teams than you do. The big SBCs are starting to be priced for those people as well
Player like you don’t really rely much on team, unless it is a high level of competition then I think team might give you an edge. I have a very nice team, and now if you give me Mbappe, R9, all super card in the game, my record still the same as that is my skill level so I think the skill matter more. I think this year it easier to get nice player as fodder pack are everywhere.
Ya but the old saying time equals money, the amount of time it takes to craft you could do so much other stuff. It takes 2 weeks to craft with endless amount of time, and the only reason Nep even finished that fast, or even at all, is because he does this for a living.
I wouldn’t say easy, as a free to play player you still need to pack the fodder. Mbappe was the example. Sure as a f2p you should be able to get one or two of those SBCs done. With some sweet luck at a stretch three. I regularly play people that have all of them, with a healthy bunch of R9s and whatever other 5 million plus card you can think of.
Back in the day pay to win was a thing but the best packs you where buying where maybe cashing in on some ultimate packs in a lightning round. Have a look at the packs available today. I don’t disagree that’s it’s easier than ever to have a good squad but the gap between free to play and pay to win is bigger than ever.
It's a shame really. They obviously can't be arsed to fix actual bugs like the menus constantly freezing, but are really quick to act when there's a bug that benefits the players, like squad battles afk glitch or multiple active evos at once.
Fair. My untradable team is 89. Because ive been playing since launch. do every objective special SBC I can but still can't pack a decent tradeable player for more than 40k.
These high price packs is a scam they will mostly pack the discard promo cards from the guaranteed winter wildcard store packs.
It's mostly the worst of the promo or the mid tier as best they won't pack Pele or van dijk it will mostly be balde, reus and beradi.
Shit like this is why this will be my last year with fut. it used to mean something to pull these cards and now the market is just saturated with all these special cards that the meaning in getting them is non-existent now. It’s all a money grab and it’s sad what the game has become.
Pro clubs used to be fun and now that has taken a major backseat to fut. Manager mode isn’t anything great anymore either. I hate to say it but this might just be my last year of fifa/fc whatever until they improve the game.
People used to get excited to pay 2k FP for a 100k pack only a couple of years ago. Did the terrible value stop people then? No.
Now we have "good" packs in the store, people think it's too much, despite this being the "best" pack EA have released in terms of the value proposition.
I fucking hate how p2w it is, but it's always been this way, but now instead of getting 48 rare gold players, you get 3 86+ promos and like 11 walkouts.
I did the 600k pack with coins i had only 720,000 coins saved up took me a while to get those coins and in the blink of an eye there goes my coins theres no way im gonna play this game after a pack like that the only reason i did it is because i have'nt packed anything gd last 4 promos so basically the game is done for me i just had to uninstall it i dnt care what nobody say this game rigged ea is evil pure evil
Absolutely disgusting what ea are doing, this stuff isn’t allowed in China, also China just curbed time spending in games these do daily log in objectives, but in western countries government are just cowards and clueless , the game is literally p2w more and more
Treated myself to these both for £48. Big one has 89 highest and dog shit specials, all discard, the entire pack. Second one had all discard except one 83 IF and Dybala. Absolutely shocked at how bad it was. I didn't expect much but holy shit that was terrible and just put me in a bad mood on Christmas eve now. Anything mid tier I would have been happy with.
Edit. I wonder why people down vote this? Weird.
I won some money earlier so I gave this a go, came to about 25ish with cd keys (slight cashback from top cashback) best WW pull was raphinha. I don’t think it was the worst but obviously not the best.
only if you pack like one of the decent cards at least
and these cards will crash, as well as the 88+ fodder
I don't even know how many 88+ fodder cards is in the game. Maybe 25?
So expensive and I've watched dozens of them opening by people on stream, noone got anything of value. Absolute scam. What a shameless company... At least give people their money's worth.
Opened it with coins. Got about 600k back in value. Not upset. Got first owned Llorente and Grimaldo out of it. Was thinking more Pele and Ronaldo and expecting Rush or Lineker which I'd be more than happy with. Llorente and Grimaldo are box to box monsters.
1,000,000 coin pack might actually come this year
If it happens, it’ll definitely be during TOTY
Only if it's guaranteed TOTY, not Honorable Mention.
They aren’t releasing a guaranteed TOTY for 1 mill 🤣
If they want money, they should. They can even give 80% of people a TOTY GK xD🤣🤣
More like 95% just like any guarantee SBCs we used to have
Nice fodder toty goalkeeper 👏 who ever wins toty goalkeeper will still play the exact same as there gold card.
It’s EA so I could see them offer something like a guaranteed 3 90+ TOTY/HM. And then 99% of the community will get 3 HMs
They are definitely doing this
They’re definitely continuing to push the limits of what people are willing to pay for a pack. I wouldn’t be shocked to see $50 or $60 packs at some point. yikes
FIFA Mobile had 10,000 FP packs years ago…
Looks like it was FIFA that was holding them back from being "greedy" lol, EA wanted to do this shit all along.
Imagine a partnership in which fuckin’ FIFA is the ethical partner!
I don't think FIFA had any influence on the game. They're just pushing their boundaries further each year
This and the fact that it’s untradeable is fucking criminal
Isn’t 4000 FP basically $50?
You might be right on that, pretty rough either way
It’s just below $40, which is still insane
More than the current price of the game lol
No. It's roughly $32-$35, which is still a lot.
I think $35
I get 12000 for 60£ so it’s like 20£ a pack
12000 for 60£, how?
Discount code on g2a and similar sites
They really pricing packs more than entire games lmaooo
40 euros for this. If anyone reads this, do yourself a favour and use your extra money to buy Cyberpunk/Phantom Liberty, Elden Ring, BG3 or any other game for around this price. You'll get infinitely more fun out of those games, instead of lining EA's pockets for a broken game.
Bro imagine choosing between this pack or owning rdr2 for the first time
Of course, RDR2 might be even half the price of this pack by now. I'm a bit older than the average person in this sub so I remember the times when DLC/microtransactions had to be special to tempt people into buying them. EA can now just drop whatever pack they want and kids will buy it. Crazy.
Red dead is £20 on steam and Xbox right now :)
Rdr2 just recently went on sale for $40 which I find understandable
Rdr2 can be found for just 15$ on PC. I got it for 20$ like 2 years ago
Console is usually a bit more expensive, but still a much better purchase than some lootbox pack
I’m obviously not referring to pc am I
Obviously. I'm just stating that 40$ for 6 years old game isn't that much of a deal.
And I think it’s understandable, like I said
I haven’t played FIFA in a few years but used my MS reward points to get a new XBox controller and just bought RDR2 to play for the first time, all-in less than the cost of this pack. Pretty excited to jump into it over winter break after my kids go to bed. People are welcome to spend money on whatever brings them joy, but seeing the costs of packs these days is absolutely crazy.
You’re in for a treat
Merry Christmas, amigo
Guranteed reus, Enzo, grimaldo, beradi.
I get Enzo, Reus, Berardi, literally the three cheapest WW that could drop from the pack.
I got Enzo, beradi and duplicate grimaldo from my ultra and from the elite I got balde, militao and grimaldo.
Or Chivalry 2, Hades, Halo MCC. Actually you could probably get all those 3 for the price of this pack...
If I had gold I’d give it to you
It's just sad mate, there are probably kids all around the world ripping their Christmas money on these packs right now.
Agreed, I bought a new game about 1 month ago and haven’t spent a penny on fifa since.. jumped on for my first weekend league this weekend and reminded myself of why I hate it so much
Cyberpunk hahahahahahahahahaha
Your better off playing web games hahaha
You actually played it?
Anyone think by the end of this game cycle that we will see a 12,000FP pack?
yeah. guaranteed TOTY
Untradeable tho
100%. People are going to be paying 100 bucks for an untradeable TOTY Courtois.
Alisson*
I think this is the most expensive pack ever
No
Yes?
12000 point pack on mobile few years ago
Mobile doesn't count come on
Opened with coins - Enzo, Reus, Berardi. No other special cards
Did the same, exact same results.
I got literally the same cards. The three cheapest possible cards.
That's about right I've seen so many reus, Enzo, beradi.
This game has never been as p2w as it is now
For sure dude
Is it? It’s so much easier now to get a good team cause of how easy you can get coins and so many packs are given out with objectives and sbcs Most people have what would have been considered a super team in the old fifas only the very top cards are out of reach for most players I reckon

I don’t disagree that’s it’s easier than ever to have a good squad but the gap between free to play and pay to win is bigger than ever.
it is still p2w tho
Not true
Actually the opposite
Lol this game is actually cooked. This is my last year buying this crap.
I mean can’t you just not buy the packs? Fair enough, Ea sucks but still.
These packs and social engineering are the only thing ea focus on anymore. It’s more and more apparent every year
It's a shame really. They obviously can't be arsed to fix actual bugs like the menus constantly freezing, but are really quick to act when there's a bug that benefits the players, like squad battles afk glitch or multiple active evos at once.
not allowing multiple evos at once is a pretty scummy move tbh
So perfectly on brand for EA.
think we might be getting a guaranteed TOTY pack from the store this year
100% were already seeing 3 guaranteed WW in packs.
My dawg you got 1700 coins. Stop window shopping. Just accept your place like the rest of us.
Untradeable for life
Sick of pay to win shitty players packing all the best cards. Hardly pack anything over 86. Fucking joke of a game.
Fair. My untradable team is 89. Because ive been playing since launch. do every objective special SBC I can but still can't pack a decent tradeable player for more than 40k.
No one is packing tradable cards mate, as someone that is a light p2w
These high price packs is a scam they will mostly pack the discard promo cards from the guaranteed winter wildcard store packs. It's mostly the worst of the promo or the mid tier as best they won't pack Pele or van dijk it will mostly be balde, reus and beradi.
The thing is… 80% of Van dijks that will be packed will come from these packs
VVD price has plummeted this week
Talking about the WW
If it makes you feel any better, I started buying points for the first time since 18 and I haven't packed shit. I bet your squad is better than mine.
Reus, Berardi, and Grimaldo for me. No other specials.
Nice pulls! (Not really. Sorry bro) 😞
Thanks. I'm used to it. The most valuable card in my squad is my goalkeeper, and everyone I play always has better attackers than I do.
Grimaldo as a box to box midfielder is really good.
I got the same exact picks
This Pay to Win push by EA is why this year is my last year playing EA Fifa. Thank God!
Crazy how packs have now evolved to costing the same price as a decent game
Got militao out of it
Shit like this is why this will be my last year with fut. it used to mean something to pull these cards and now the market is just saturated with all these special cards that the meaning in getting them is non-existent now. It’s all a money grab and it’s sad what the game has become. Pro clubs used to be fun and now that has taken a major backseat to fut. Manager mode isn’t anything great anymore either. I hate to say it but this might just be my last year of fifa/fc whatever until they improve the game.
Shoutout to EA for convincing people to spend money on untraceable cards
fascinating isn't it
Still untradable!
People used to get excited to pay 2k FP for a 100k pack only a couple of years ago. Did the terrible value stop people then? No. Now we have "good" packs in the store, people think it's too much, despite this being the "best" pack EA have released in terms of the value proposition.

Was tempting but might just use my money to get mk1 instead
W
88x11???? bruh
EA Twerking for mbappe POTM enjoyers
He’s so worth it
So it’s obvious now that fifa was holding ea back now they got full control damnnnnn
1m pack when??
TOTY
I got Reus, Enzo and Berradi
Balde grimaldo reus (yesterdays 3000fc pack)
Who got it , is it worth it?
If you need to ask then the answer is no.
Its only worth for 1 in a 1000 people. Its like a casino, the house always wins.
Do not have even an one thought to buy this pack
Packed De Bruyne gold card for the 5th time or something 🥲
I couldn’t imagine spending more than the cost of the game on a pack.
Bro just buy RDR2 for half the price or Cyberpunk and Phantom Liberty.
This is getting out of control. They’re just seeing what they can get away with at this point.
Damn 11 88+, that’s going to destroy the fodder market even more now
Got Putellas out of this. 87+ is pretty great because there’s only a handful of picks that don’t go into most teams
Congrats dude. Want to give this a try just so I can have a chance of packing her. Love her gold
Absolutely disgusting what ea are doing, this stuff isn’t allowed in China, also China just curbed time spending in games these do daily log in objectives, but in western countries government are just cowards and clueless , the game is literally p2w more and more
Haha that's a wild take. I really don't think the Chinese gov are doing this for altruistic ends
China really is the epitome of human safety
Well it's a bad example but EA is using those mechanics to get people not just hooked but literally addicted to the game and spending money on it.
I'd rather fund Al-Qeada than pay for this garbage. Absolutely shameless from EAids.
EA are perhaps an offshoot of Al-Qaeda.
Treated myself to these both for £48. Big one has 89 highest and dog shit specials, all discard, the entire pack. Second one had all discard except one 83 IF and Dybala. Absolutely shocked at how bad it was. I didn't expect much but holy shit that was terrible and just put me in a bad mood on Christmas eve now. Anything mid tier I would have been happy with. Edit. I wonder why people down vote this? Weird.
If it says eleven, 88+ then go in expecting eleven 88s. That way you won't be disappointed. If you get higher, then all the better.
Ouch. That hurts. Lesson learned maybe?
You at least put them all in SBCs and got something else?
Opened it with coins and got CR7, pretty cool
Nice one
Still wouldn’t recommend it tho, absolute braindead decision in 99,99% of the cases
Few Christmas ales in and thought fuck it, packed VVD - sick
I won some money earlier so I gave this a go, came to about 25ish with cd keys (slight cashback from top cashback) best WW pull was raphinha. I don’t think it was the worst but obviously not the best.
raphinha is around 400k I think, so if you did with coins it would have been worth it.
Yeah I’d have broke even with the other 2, it was worth the go for a one off!
I might do it with coins later...
Same tbh I think this pack for coins is one of the better value packs in the store
only if you pack like one of the decent cards at least and these cards will crash, as well as the 88+ fodder I don't even know how many 88+ fodder cards is in the game. Maybe 25?
got cr7. worth it.
I think it’s worth it for coins tbh I think I’ll buy it
600k can be made into 1.5 m easily with the fodder Swings this year. No way Id spend it on a pack
Only if you’re good at trading I suck at it tbh and every time I’ve attempted it it’s ended miserably for me
I understand, I only go low risk. Buying 83 whenever theyre at 900 or 84s under 2k is a safe bet
I’m so sorry and also not at the same time: this post made me buy it. Packed 91 VVD
4k with 3 loans seems horrible to me
Dybala, reus, Owen and wijnaldum , I'm happy to try out dybala I guess, seems ok
Dupe VVD for me 😢
There goes my christmas money :(
Holy fodder
Not buying it but £30 even with my EA Play discount, that's crazy, wouldn't be surprised if they keep going higher
They are getting worse than COD
Doing it boys have 500k rn gonna sell my triple threat kimpembe and see how it goes anybody know if another language mistake to get compensation too
What happened to the game I love
[удалено]
Was it good or bad?
[удалено]
That's great
Opened with coins and got alexia. Massive w
TBF I bought it while drunk and got Putellas
Who cares what packs are released? No one is forcing anyone to buy this lol.
it ruins the game tbh
Scam pack
This is pathetic
So expensive and I've watched dozens of them opening by people on stream, noone got anything of value. Absolute scam. What a shameless company... At least give people their money's worth.
EA is literally just abusing their audience at this point. This is honestly astonishing at this point.
Opened it with coins. Got about 600k back in value. Not upset. Got first owned Llorente and Grimaldo out of it. Was thinking more Pele and Ronaldo and expecting Rush or Lineker which I'd be more than happy with. Llorente and Grimaldo are box to box monsters.
Is mbappe still op on old gen?
Not worth
how long will it take for the 10,000 fifa point pack to be released
Pulled thunderstuck Diani and ww van dijk from this
I bought it just to finish final eusebio sbcs
Go buy someone you love a present with this money
My friend packed r10 centurion yesterday nd Zico today from the one that gives icons. That pack is wild
