    Cheaters are truly ruining Rivals Div 1 on PC. You now get a loss and ZERO points when you meet them. Noone actually cares.

    Posted: 22 Apr 2021 09:07 AM PDT

    In the past, you used to meet the bronze teams, get an insta disconnect, but the game WOULDN'T COUNT for you. Now, the game gives them a win, and it gives you a loss, resulting in ZERO RIVALS POINTS and one game added to the 30 limit!

    This is beyond frustrating and unfair. Imagine if you, the Div 1 console player, would try hard to grind Rivals games for that 1st rank, and such thing happens to you not once, but even three or four times per week. It's absolutely impossible to get Rank 1 if you have such bad luck (I've met the same players 3 times in a row last week).

    If this issue was on PS4 or Xbox, you'd have a thread with 2.000+ upvotes on reddit, and it would've been solved in 4 days max. PC? Noone, absolutely noone from EA gives a fuck, and all the threads I've seen on reddit about this issue are 100 upvotes max.

    Community? Where is the community? It's embarrassing how a billion profit game can have such issues, and how SO MANY cheaters can get away with it. I've reported a bunch of them myself, and what? Nothing happens, no ban, next week you meet them on and on again. Division one is fucked at this point, for real.

    This is the 3rd week when I'm getting screwed by these cheaters in my road to Rank 1 Div 1, and I just can't take it anymore. I'm facing HUGE delay each Thursday and Friday in Rivals, and this is not enough, is it? I have to get games with zero points also.

    Fuck this shit, man...

    Edit: And another one encountered. Two in the last four rivals game, just unbearable.

    Edit 2: The same one, again, after I even waited: https://imgur.com/a/ElKmSOC - 3/5 games with zero points

    Edit 3: Thanks for all the upvotes and the awards guys. I sincerely hope someone from EA sees this AND raises it as serious concern. In a normal world, this should be straight unacceptable imo, even if it's "just" a video game.

    EA should have Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville as commentators in future games

    Posted: 22 Apr 2021 11:10 AM PDT

    Since Martin Tyler and Alan Smith wish to discontinue their commentary on FIFA, we should have these two instead.

    My first time scoring goals in a match, I have a visual impairment so it wasn't that easy, but did it anyway, proud of myself

    Posted: 22 Apr 2021 06:45 PM PDT

    I was never really into football, to be completely honest and my sister's boyfriend got me into FIFA 21, so have been playing non-stop in Player Career Mode which I love, I've been playing with FC Barcelona as No. 10 (Sorry, Messi), really enjoyed it and it's so much fun, we ended up winning the Champions Championship Trophy against Man United, so have been playing through the first Championship, I scored 3 goals, Messi scored 1, Griezmann scored 1 and then Braithwaite scored the last goal, leading us to victory as the winners of the championship.

    The highlights of our match in which we scored 7 goals, meaning it was Man U 0-7 FC Barcelona.

    30 Squad Weekend League! Part 3 (Sunday Games)

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 10:06 PM PDT

    See Part 1 and Part 2 for my first 20 squads!

    Sunday came around and I was sitting at 8-12. Before the weekend started, I expected myself to be able to get Silver 1, which I felt was a reasonable goal as a Gold 2 player. Being only 3 wins away from that with my best squads, I upped my goal to a Gold 3 finish, which required a 6-4 result on Sunday...totally doable.

    Let's get into it!

    Game 21 - Germany (W 4-0)

    Goals - Waldschmidt Wakdschmidt Waldschmidt Kimmich

    Assists - Kohlert Kohlert Kohlert

    Germany

    I saved 300ish packs for TOTY and was lucky enough to get Kimmich untradeable...so I was excited to use this squad. It features 3 of my main team's players, and as I expected, led to a comfortable 4-0 win. Kohlert's quite good for a free card as well.

    Game 22 - Brazil (W 5-2)

    Goals - Neymar Rodrygo Rodrygo Reinier Kaka

    Assists - Kaka Danilo Marquinhos Rodrygo Rodrygo

    Brazil

    One of two nations squads to feature 2 icons. I crafted Kaka during TOTY, and pulled Prime Carlos out of my Swaps 2 Prime or Moments pack. Neymar I nabbed untradeable back in October (told ya I was lucky this year..,). Fun, fun team to use, even if the defense was mildly underwhelming.

    Game 23 - England (L 3-6)

    Goals - Rooney Grealish Armstrong

    Assists - Rooney Armstrong

    England

    This game was closer than the final scoreline would suggest...I was down 4-3 with 20 minutes to go, before giving up 2 goals late. Rooney has been a contender for favorite card this year. So much fun to use whether up top or as a box to box.

    Game 24 - France (W 6-2)

    Goals - Giroud Giroud Giroud Martial Fofana Fofana

    Assists - Martial Giroud Henry Henry Kounde Kounde

    France

    With the loss last game, I now needed to win out to scrape a Gold 2 finish. I didn't expect it, but it got off to a good start here with my last nation specific squad, securing my original goal of Silver 1. 7 of these cards were "free" objective cards...and some of them are QUITE good. Giroud's incredible on the attack, and Mollet is underrated. Defensively Fofana and Kounde are great, as is Guendouzi. Amavi's the only non-first owner in the bunch here. Henry obviously the big one, pulled him from the Icon Player Pick.

    Game 25 - La Liga (W 7-4)

    Goals - Isak Isak Suarez Messi Messi Messi Messi

    Assists - Isak Isak Messi Messi Messi Rodrygo

    La Liga

    We hit the Top 5 leagues with La Liga first up. Remember farther up, when I said Rooney has been my favorite card this year? Yeah....that was the case until Player of the Month Messi. I was on the fence with doing him, as he starts out of position in my Weekend League team...but he's out of this world. 4 goals, 3 assists this game, including a couple absolute worldies.

    I was actually behind 4-2 at the half before 5 goals in 23 minutes. Crazy game.

    Game 26 - Bundesliga (W 7-2)

    Goals - Huntelaar Huntelaar Jovic Jovic Jovic Kimmich Sancho

    Assists - Huntelaar Huntelaar Jovic Coman Guendouzi Kimmich Kimmich

    Bundesliga

    I remember being a bit meh about pulling Jovic from a player pick during What If...but he's very, very good. Fun team, pretty easy game...nobody's getting past that midfield.

    Game 27 - Premier League (W 4-4, 7-6 Penalties)

    Goals - Giroud Giroud Neves Ziyech

    Assists - Fernandes Giroud Jota

    Premier League

    Kinda surprised it took until Game 27 to go to Penalties! This was a nailbiter of a game...I was down late and Giroud tied it up in the 83rd minute. I then went down in extra time before Ziyech (my Ones to Watch preorder player) tied it off the bench. Was down in the penalty shootout before coming back to win and securing Gold 3 with 3 games to go!

    Game 28 - Serie A (W 5-3)

    Goals - Caputo Caputo Perisic Pastore Pastore

    Assists - Captuo Lautro Perisic Romagnoli

    Serie A

    FUT Birthday Perisic was my 3rd highest value packed player this year (behind Kimmich and Neymar) and it shows. The guy is soooo good. Midfield is strong here with Tonali and Pastore. I was actually down 3-1 in this game before roaring back and getting a rage quit...keeping my Gold 2 hopes alive.

    Game 29 - Ligue 1 (L 3-4)

    Goals - Weah Payet Payet

    Assists - Weah Payet

    Ligue 1

    Sadly, the dream died one game later. I should've learned from my Argentina game that Benedetto was disappointing and put Weah in much, much sooner. I was down 4-0 before halftime and despite getting 3 goals in 10 minutes early in the second half, I couldn't complete the comback in the last half hour...

    Game 30 - Pompey XI (W 2-0)

    Goals - Messi Henry

    Assists - Rooney Dest

    Pompey XI

    And finally we wrapped it up with my normal Weekend League team. This is by far the best team I've ever had in FUT, and this is also the first year I've run an RTG. So much fun to use. Key upgrade during TOTS will be Left Center Back, though Volland is a great card. The game was a bit anticlimactic, as I went up 2-0 early and forced a rage quit.

    That game me a record on the day of 8-2, and a total overall Weekend League record of 16-14, just missing out on my normal Gold 2 finish. (I did get the extra WL+ player pick though!)

    I hope you guys enjoyed reading through these posts as much as I enjoyed the weekend. I'm excited to add to these squads (And perhaps create a couple new ones) during TOTS, and hopefully do this again after TOTS ends!

    I'll keep the cards for now...but if EA releases a repeatable Moments SBC this summer, I think i'll probably, finally use them all up and see what I can get. Until then! :)

    Who is the one player who KILLS you when you play but DOES NOT work when you use them

    Posted: 22 Apr 2021 10:29 AM PDT

    Who is the one player who Destroys your team when you play them but when you have them they don't do anything for your team... in my case it is TIMO WERNER.

    Fifa PC is something else...

    Posted: 22 Apr 2021 09:00 AM PDT

    I don't know why but playing Fifa on PC is really a different level compared to PS and XBOX, because of the no loss glitchers that are abusing every possible mechanic like cheaters.

    Before I acutally got to play the game itself I had to deal with 4 no loss glitchers in Rivals (!) what did cost me actually 4 games! It didn't count as lose itself but my games played just went from 0/30 to 4/30 and I didn't managed to grind even 1 point... To those people who are sweeting their asses and are so toxic? Why u do this? We are one community. Stop!

    (it also goes to Fut Champs and online drafts, people are abusing the no loss glitch left and right)

    Do we think the power curve right now in FIFA 21 is behind where it was this time last year in FIFA 20

    Posted: 22 Apr 2021 05:50 PM PDT

    I feel like nowhere near as many insane cards have been released this year, last year we had FB Mbappe and Hazard, >2 top tier players per promo. People are still using certain gold players (not saying who) in defence in April. I'm not saying it's a bad thing but I'm just wondering why and what everyone's opinion is.

    What do you do continually in game that you recognize as a weakness?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2021 06:49 PM PDT

    I know I could be a lot better if I had more time to practice, but as a working adult the fact is I just don't. Let's see if we can tell on ourselves here in the hopes that we can collectively process, understand, and hopefully change some of our in-game behaviors that cost us wins or chances.

    • I do too many elasticos and I do them at the wrong time.
    • I overcommit and tackle rather than jockeying while defending, especially when I've switched to my CBs.

    You guys go now.

    Getting Rid of Fatigue Was a Good Start But...

    Posted: 22 Apr 2021 10:28 AM PDT

    There is no need for Contracts or Injuries cards. Both are as ridiculous and fake as Fatigue was. Get rid of both. And to be honest Chemistry is a real waste too if they want us to have maximum fun get rid of that as well. If you want a system to build chemistry then do what PES does the more games they play together the better chemistry gets (up to 100 chem).

    Add another division or redo the skill rating for each

    Posted: 22 Apr 2021 08:01 AM PDT

    I'm low division 1 and there is nothing more upsetting than facing a dude that is almost 300 akill rating(a whole division+ more) above me. I literally stand no chance of winning. Either they should make 2100+ div 1 or just add a whole new division for the best players.

    Didier Drogba Icon cards

    Posted: 22 Apr 2021 09:23 AM PDT

    According to Futbin PGP. Among all Icon cards PIM Drogba is #1 in goals per game. Base Drogba is #4 and Prime Drogba is #5

    Prime Ronaldo and PIM Torres are 2 and 3

    Is Drogba really that good? Has to be more than a coincidence.
