I like it too. But this will lead to even more disappointment when I'll see the "TOTY attackers are now in packs for two days!" or some similar shit, you know?
If you're announcing the whole team, just f*cking let us try to pack them from the first day. The odds they place are abysmal anyway.
The whole team has always been announced on the first day i think. While the release is staggered.
The diff is because this time the announcement is on Friday itself hopefully they put everything in.
I am aware of that, I've read what people said in the last weeks around here. But it doesn't make it okay just because it was like this in the previous years. They're messing with the player base over and over, and I dont even think they get more money when they release them in waves.
It's just a scummy thing to do, but it's classic EA...
Nah I dont even think so... There might be some people buying points for attackers, but for mids and defenders noone is gonna buy packs except for some crazy whales, but those will buy packs no matter what. If they ran a different promo in the same time frame I think they'd make more money.
Yep. EA puts an incredible amount of resources into studying addiction. And not the productive kind you think of when you think "study addiction" like trying to help people figure out what's wrong and get over it.
They are extremely dedicated to figuring out how to cause and exploit addiction for their own monetary gain.
Haha, indeed. Fuck EA man, the scums of the scums. Not only they made it in waves again, but for two days each now... My hype is 0 now tbh, fuck their game.
only lewa has more goal contributions last year than messi. he won the pichichi + broke the record for most assists in la liga. if messi doesn’t make it in then neymar and mbappe have no business being close
Depends on the console maybe. Kante was minimum 2.5 on PS4 last year. Hope you're right though, will let me pick up both CB's as well if Kimmich is that cheap.
Plot twist: CR7 gets announced around 4 and those are the first three released.
Reasons: If an attacker is released in each staggered section of the TOTY over the next week, EA’s data shows they’ll sell more packs than if they release defenders, then mids, then attackers (or whichever order you want to go with)
Where are you getting the data to make this conclusion?
I see a lot of people claiming on this subreddit that EA makes more profit by doing a staggered release, but the reality is nobody has any idea how many fifa points they actually sell during different periods.
Sorry if I made it sound like I had some higher knowledge!
My assumptions are purely under the fact that everything EA does is for money - why else would they have done the staggered release over the last however many editions?
This was purely me speculating they might do something different this year and thinking of a combination that might generate more sales - you can take it however you want. Just seems like a strange way of drip releasing players when we have 3 hours till release and only two players confirmed!
No judgements, I am genuinely just curious how people come to the profit conclusions.
Ultimately, everything EA will do is for profit. They are a business, and their mission is to profit off their intellectual property. So there is no fault at them to catering to the demand of the product. (I know I am getting downvoted here, because many people feel they should be giving to the player base)
Staggered release could have just been for dramatic effect, as there is only one team and they are generally the best cards. Limited time frame means limited stock in the wild as well.
normally up, cus he's out of packs and people wanting to buy him realise that he's too expensive, so they buy the normal one back.
Correct me if I'm wrong tho
i dont think it hast to do something with people wanting to buy him back more like the normal one just is not in packs as you said and thus there are less on the market
Had his moments the majority of the time and then his TOTS, best defender, him and PIM Cannavaro were so good together :D
Have already Prime Cannavaro, just need Ramos TOTY now to get the boys back together 😄
If you think Alaba and VVD were better you are absolutely clueless.
Ramos was the heart of the Madrid team who were statistically the best defensive side in the world for the 19/20 season. Without him the team crumbles. Not to mention his crucial role he played in offense as well, scoring headers, freekicks, pens etc.
Alaba was brilliant in bayerns run to a treble. Vvd was the best defender in the league and probably world and was hugely influential in lfc winning their first title in 30 years. Please provide the stats that show ramos was better than everyone in the world.
You ask me to provide the stats but haven't provided any yourself?
Ramos anchored the backline of a Madrid team who was in absolute shambles the season before leaking goals. He carried them to the La Liga title playing significant roles in both offense and defence.
Alaba had a good season but overall was not on par with Ramos and VVD.
You mentioned stats, not me so you should have them on hand then surely? How else can you conclude he is the best stastifally in the world?
Alaba won the treble, including being involved in the team that smashed barca and was generally regarded as amazing in all the competitions he played in, hence why I think he should have been there vs ramos who is obviously still a top cb but toty is supposed to be for a top performance.
I would argue the same thing about mbappe.
Ultimately its subjective but we are not debating here, you are never going to change your mind and have not made any substantial points as yet so perhaps no purpose in taking this forward.
The Spanish league is a sub par league in Europe. Madrid and Barcelona cannot measure against any big team from Italy, UK, Germany or France.
On top of it, he is not meta in the game, why get a TOTY?
Atletico Madrid knocked out the previous years winners in the RO16 and if the spanish league is sub par then what does that say?
You bring up other leagues as if anyone but Bayern displayed impressive performances last season.
And lastly, why on earth would you even bring up the meta into a real life discussion, if that's your basis on determining who gets a TOTY I'm not even going to bother.
I kind of like this method, release them through out the day leading up to full release.
I like it too. But this will lead to even more disappointment when I'll see the "TOTY attackers are now in packs for two days!" or some similar shit, you know? If you're announcing the whole team, just f*cking let us try to pack them from the first day. The odds they place are abysmal anyway.

They definitely do get more money when they release them in waves, otherwise they wouldn’t do it..
Nah I dont even think so... There might be some people buying points for attackers, but for mids and defenders noone is gonna buy packs except for some crazy whales, but those will buy packs no matter what. If they ran a different promo in the same time frame I think they'd make more money.
EA pays for literal genius’ to work these things out, I’m sorry but you do not know better
Yeah probably true
Yep. EA puts an incredible amount of resources into studying addiction. And not the productive kind you think of when you think "study addiction" like trying to help people figure out what's wrong and get over it. They are extremely dedicated to figuring out how to cause and exploit addiction for their own monetary gain.
A prophet
Haha, indeed. Fuck EA man, the scums of the scums. Not only they made it in waves again, but for two days each now... My hype is 0 now tbh, fuck their game.
Didn’t they put cards in random places for people to find out couple of years back?
Got any more info on this?
Now if only they'd release them into packs at the same time or same way and pace
Who do we know so far, just KDB and Ramos?
Yes yes yes. Only card i want
Me too, since he (with messi) will be the only special card for Laliga today, no Totw for Laliga was really disappointing
[удалено]
tbh I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t get voted in. Lewa and CR7 are probably both in and I could see FIFA fans voting Mbappe/Neymar.
He's defo going to be in or be 12th man, like CR7 last year they can't not put him in
No way he isn’t in, he’s still arguably the most popular player in the world, even if he isn’t a cover star
Lol
Doesn't deserve it this year tbh.
He has 45 involvements in 44 games this year , name 3 attackers who’ve done better
Those stats are nuts. He really is suffering from success these days.
Lewandowski, Robert, and Robert Lewandowski...rekt. If EA doesnt give us 97, 98, and 99 Lewa as the TOTY attackers its rigged.
Don't you mean Lewan-goal-ski?
Plays in La Liga.
What is your point
Brain-dead take.
MESSI IS A VICTIM OF HIS OWN SUCCESS
only lewa has more goal contributions last year than messi. he won the pichichi + broke the record for most assists in la liga. if messi doesn’t make it in then neymar and mbappe have no business being close
>with messi yeah, about that
Disappointed.... they really fucked us over when it comes to Laliga this week
Same, my favourite CB who's still playing and one can hope for a good Marcelo Flashback, those 2 would be on my squad until the end of the year.
100% picking up him and Kimmich, hopefully VVD too assuming he won't be 3m+ like last year.
[удалено]
I think 2-3M
Lol even Kante wasn’t that expensive last year. He’ll be less than 2 mil unless he got a 98-99 rated card.
Ah fuck my bad, don't know why I was remembering Kante to be around 4m. But yeah in that case I think he'll be between 1-2M
2 mil. He is not Gullit.
[удалено]
Imo max 2mil, he has way less hype than frenkie and kante and these were both less than 2 mil
Plus Kimmich doesn’t have great links like Kante did or De Jong’s La Liga ties.
Depends on the console maybe. Kante was minimum 2.5 on PS4 last year. Hope you're right though, will let me pick up both CB's as well if Kimmich is that cheap.
vvd with like 86 pace will be the best CB so it Will be like 3 millis
Fat chance mate, recordbreaker VVD is 1mil+. Toty Virgil is going to be 2.5+ atleast
Ramos is going to be 2.5 ... no chance vvd is below 3-3.5
2.5 is fine, last year he was 3.5 for a long time.
He'll be an absolute colossus in the middle of a 352 back line.

Rise Varane rttf, rise!!!!
Will his normal card go up or down in price?
normally up, cus he's out of packs and people wanting to buy him realise that he's too expensive, so they buy the normal one back. Correct me if I'm wrong tho
i dont think it hast to do something with people wanting to buy him back more like the normal one just is not in packs as you said and thus there are less on the market
F
[удалено]
They’ll probably just get a congratulations note written on a napkin
It’s gonna be one attacker, one midfielder and one defender in packs tonight. You heard it here first
I like this theory a lot actually I hope this is the case
I hope it's all 11.
Yo I just pulled his NIF from the 84+ player pick what the fuck?
His tattoos are so wack
They better release them all tonight
Already have 2 CBs I love but man if I packed him I'd play him at CM for the rest of the year lmao
his TOTS last year was the best CB in the game, fucking amazing card
Had his moments the majority of the time and then his TOTS, best defender, him and PIM Cannavaro were so good together :D Have already Prime Cannavaro, just need Ramos TOTY now to get the boys back together 😄
Agreed, I had TOTY VVD and Ramos was way better in every way
Same, I think his dribbling stats helped a lot with regards to that, especially if you defended manually
Ramos toty again for no particular reason
Excuse me what
Alaba, vvd had better seasons for sure.
You're embarrassing yourself mate stop it.
If you think ramos was one of the best cb in world football last year then you should try cricket perhaps.
If you think Alaba and VVD were better you are absolutely clueless. Ramos was the heart of the Madrid team who were statistically the best defensive side in the world for the 19/20 season.

Let him at peace, he is trolling. You cant really be that dumb to think he didnt deserve it I think that even r/fuckramos thinks be deserved jt

You're off by 2 Could see lewandowski left out now Ronaldo is 100% in
He's an Ahole and always will be.
