36.000 FIFA Points for 240 packs wasted, enjoy this desaster of 82, 83 and 84 players pulled twice. And as every year, I knew what was happening and what I was doing, buying FIFA points is a great way of investing in Consumables and selling Contracts for 500-900 Coins each in the first days.

Been confused.

The web app is up and available, for PS4 as well. If you trade or get a lucky pack, yes you can get a TOTW.

I'm on PS4 and I've been doing SBCs by buying players on the market and getting tons of pack rewards. Nothing good but obviously I could have gotten a TOTW card from my reward packs.

I pre ordered Ronaldo edition to get the extra days and because I didn't care about an icon loan player

I think the not having access to transfer market thing is just happening to random people and there's nothing they can do about it :(

Nope. I have been using the web app since it was released. All without preordering the game. I did download the FIFA 18 Demo, but that's it.

And on that note, I did just last night actually finally buy/preorder FIFA 18, Ronaldo Icon edition, using that 10% off from FIFA 17's menu.

But as I just said above, I have been using the web app for the past few days without ever preordering anything.

Weird.

Thanks for clearing that up and sorry for the confused post, I'll blame jet lag.

I can use the web app, but the transfer market is locked ("play more on PS4"). Seems to be an issue for more people, with no fix

Yeah at some point I was sitting on 22k. I only have 2 SBCs to do now, that give tradeable rewards. Both of which require Loyalty. I decided to ditch my MLS squad and spent 18k on one of those SBC squads. I'll play 10 games with it, get the loyalty, and boom get some rare jumbo pack as well.

he spent 300 euros because he is very bad and incapable of making money in game, via transfer market or playing or sbcs or anything.

I just wonder what the point is, like why spend a bunch of money when you might play a few dozen games before you burn out because you get beat like a drum constantly.

I can actually understand good players spending money to get a leg up early because it can provide an incredible boost and give them a big advantage the first few months, which can snowball pretty hard if they're good enough to get elite+ constantly, but for someone who is never gonna play a lot in the first place it just seems like an especially large waste of money.
