Basically you need to buy 2/3 gold packs AT LEAST to get any kind of footing in the game.

Fantastic, the trading market is completely broken. Even if someone bought your card, he won´t get it and you won´t get the points.
Congratulations EA, you keep fucking this up.

I purchased a card last night, worked fine.

This is happening today. And it seems there´s "just" a delay in the system so it will take some hours for a user to get the card or the points.

The lag in the last 10-15 games has been so bad I couldn't see my players moving let alone interpret any kind of movement.

By a long shot the worst lag I have ever experienced in any game ever.

I don't give a shit if it is because I have too many players up for trade, too many transactions pending, too many players, too many of anything, the game is broken and it needs fixing.

It is a fucking outrage that EA can get away with the blatant lack of QA that went into this product.

This is actually getting really annoying now, my whole team has basically run out of fitness and buying bronze packs all the time hoping for a fitness card makes it impossible to get gold packs.

If they include this mode in FIFA10 they def need to rethink it.

Not sure if this has been said already but the best way to get the players you want is look at the very last pages in the search trade. I scooped Neved for 950 points tonight and i brought a 99 pace 91 shooting Anelka for 4,000. There are constantly good players going dirt cheep because people cant be bothered to look through them all.

Heres my team anyway

Manager: Moyes

GK: A Manninger
LB: L Warnock
CB: C Davies
CB: R Ferdinand
RB: G Nevlle

LM: P Nedved
CM: D Murphy
CM: F Lampard
RM: Quaresma

ST: A Cassano
ST: V Iaquinta / N. Anelka

i also have defo, owen, temudo.

So far i have won 8 tournaments with roughly that set up and i am normally getting around 80 TC. I am still not a 5 star team as my deffence consists of 1 gold player but the deffence i have is deffinatly a great combo of silver players.

Im trying to get Gerrard still so if anyone wants a trade of some kind let me no ! :)

Gave up playing this a couple of weeks ago, the idea is good but after a while it's just stupid and annoying.

I did have gerrard, but made a cool 19K on him in a 5 day auction.

My Team is

Manager - Zola (4312)

GK - Marchetti
LB - Zauri
CB - Nesta
CB - Dainelli
RB - Panucci
CM - Conti
CM - Pirlo
CM - Giovinco
CF - Totti
ST - Acquafresca
ST - Vucinic

Very Italian flavoured, but everyone plays to that or 4312 formation. Team chemistry at 100%, and have players like Kaka and Yakubu to come from the bench. Great game when the servers want to play properly. My biggest gripe is the whole foreign name thing, where any name with an accent or umlaut (sp) shows as a ? or X, make it look unprofessional.

That's probably down to your team chemistry, the wrong formations for each player, or what I find, that your strikers aren't pace merchants. Pace is so vital in this game.

My manager and four of my players are 442. Chemistry is 55. My four strikers have 87, 87, 88 and 91 for pace, and all of them have 99 for shooting. I just drew 0-0 and lost on penalties to a 1.5-star team. How embarrassing. I used to be reasonably good at this. I got the 100 ranked wins achievement on FIFA 08 with a win ration of about 60-70%, always playing against Barca mongs. On 09 it's about 20%. It doesn't seem so different that I should suddenly become shit at it.

I find blending your team with players of the same nationality really helps with boosting your chemistry.

My Current Team:

Buffon (Looking to Trade for Casillas)

Javi Venta
Carlos Cuella
Carlos Puyol
Antonio Lopez

David Silva
Xavi
Fabregas
Jesus Navas

Iaquinta
Messi

Also have robben, Quaresma, Ferdinand, Barry, Martins, Cruz, Kaka etc....

Any one willing trade KAKA for Gerrard?

Bastard, I sold a spare Gerrard last night, I'd have done that trade.

In an attempt to up my chemistry I've made some changes:

GK Buffon (95)

LB Moretti (80)
CB Chiellini (90)
CB Nesta (85)
RB Zambrotta (84)

LM Giggs (89)
CM Essien (92)
CM Gerrard (94)
RM Messi (98)

ST Klose (96)
ST Eto'o (97)

Subs: Bizzarri (93), Puyol (88), Richards (84), Miguel (86), Taylor (86), Toure (91), Cameronesi (93), Luis Fabiano (97), Lavezzi (97), Zomoniac (98)

Having an all Italian back 5 hasn't helped as much as I'd hoped. Now up to 56. Goes up to 63 if I swap RW Messi for RM Cameronesi, but having Messi makes up for that. What does it mean when the back circle thing goes from white to green?

Jesus, is everyone scared of a little competition? To try and get my chemistry up I've rejigged things. 442/433 training cards go for 30k+, and lesser used formations go for sod all. Picked up about 12 343 cards for 4-500 each and switched around my team:

GK: Buffon (97)

CB: Nesta (87)
CB: Chiellini (91)
CB: Puyol (89)

LM: Giggs (92)
CM: Gerrard (96)
CM: Essien (96)
RM: Cameronesi (95)

LW: Robinho (96)
ST: Eto'o (99)
RW: Messi (99)

M: Wenger (93)

All bar the keeper (who inexplicably has a preferred formation but it can't be changed) are on 343, chemistry is 79.

And my big problem is that having made some big improvements by picking up cheap training cards, my team is now so good nobody will play me. On the team select screen I've got 98 for Attack, 94 for Midfield and 89 for Defence, even most 5-star teams I'm drawn against are 80-82ish for everything. And the last 10 times I've got to the team select screen the other person has quit. They'll beat me anyway. Fucking pussies.

Have they finally fixed all the bugs that plagued it in the beginning, Zomoniac?

I might actually have to invest in it then :o

They seem to have, all seems to be running fine and dandy now. The only issues, as in any predominantly online game, are the dickheads that infest it. It's brilliant aside from them.

Valdes

Sergio Ramos -- Lucio -- Gallas -- Maicon

Altintop -- Gerrard -- Lampard -- Robben

Podolski -- Tevez

-----------------------------------------------

Nedved -- Santa Cruz -- Mascherano -- Pizarro -- Campbell

I found that Lampard is a great signing when u start getting a bit of money because u can get him for cheap, i got him for 2,500. He makes a real impact.

Yup. And also don't buy levelled up players. A 99 Eto'o goes for 30,000+. I bought an 89 Eto'o (base rating) for about 6,000, then levelled him up to 99 with about 5,000 of training cards and a half-decent head coach.

I keep seeing 99 Ronaldos going for 60k, and the 94 standard rating ones going for 30k, despite is costing a few thousand at most to get him up to 99.

Lucky you. I got Sergio Ramos, the best right back in the game, in a pack about an hour after switching to 343 and no longer needing rightbacks. Somebody paid 7,950 for him on a BIN about 10 minutes after I posted it!

Yeah, ive found puting a BIN on an auction works great, ive been getting top dollar for alot of players lately.

I usually put players rated about 78-82ish, for a BIN of around 2950 mark and that usually sells.
