PeaceSquid Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 After opening up A LOT of gold packs and getting nowhere I was getting frustrated so I sold a bunch of players this morning and went to work. Read up on the achv and people are saying that it is possible to get this achv with a bronze pack. I was sceptical but decided to give it a go. Got home and there were about 20k of coins in my account so I started buying bronze packs (400 coins ones) and sure enough after 15 or so this popped. No rares/IFs in my team although there is a player on the right (where the badges/kits usually are). An American winger called Pittman. Thank f**k that is sorted. Now I can actually enjoy this mode!!

CRA166 T Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I got about 15k and wondering wether to try this, I could do with saving the money as i need Nasri and he's going for around 60k average unless someone wants to lend him to me for a tournament then they can have him back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSheff Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 So Pittman was a bronze IF? Or is it bugged? If so I will try this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatNiteEduardo Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 He is probably a sub in totw. There are 11 players we all know are on totw but there are subs too. To see who they are go to store and watch bottom right for team of week 2/2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeaceSquid Posted October 26, 2011 Author Share Posted October 26, 2011 He was just a shiny bronze card though rather than one of the black ones. Very odd. But there you go, I suggest to everyone that you do what I did. Set aside 20000 and start buying bronze packs. Make sure your trade pile/auctions are clear beforehand so you can list some of your new players. Best to sort out your consumables also so that you've got somewhere to store any new ones. Then just start ploughing through bronze 400 packs before they patch this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSheff Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Did this this morning and it totally worked! Spent about 5000 on bronze packs and it popped without getting an IF player! I didn't do anything special, just listed the contracts and decent players and then quick sold the rest. After about 15 packs it popped. It must be some kind of loop hole! Awesome!

It does take the pressure off and means you can now spend your money on the players you want and not useless gold packs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bistric Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Just spent some 30,000 coins opening bronze packs, opened about 80 of them, and no achievement. I did on 2 occasions get a player hanging out on the right hand side, not a duplicate, not IF, but nothing. On the bright side, I did add about 300 new players to the club, and increased its value by some 15-20 million, sitting at 70 million right now.

In my way To 85 million, i just bought about 300 bronze packs and no cheevo... Bad luck at all... I wil buy some gold packs, quick sell the cards, and when i get 20000 coins, i will start buying bronze packs. About that, is it better buying 750 coins packs, or the 400 coins?

PeaceSquid Posted October 26, 2011 Author Share Posted October 26, 2011 Hard to tell. I got mine in a 400 pack. I bought less 400 packs than I did 7500 ones so statistically I reckon it's the way forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeaceSquid Posted October 26, 2011 Author Share Posted October 26, 2011 has the TOTW changed yet? The last one had racist Terry in it. I'm guessing he didn't make the latest one. if it has changed maybe that's affected this solution. We need confirmation on that!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisSheff Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I have the 85M achievement. In fact I only needed 50 hours and level 20 achievements prior to this one. So maybe this has something to do with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bistric Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Update to my previous post: I bought 15-20 more bronze packs, and got the achievement.

LethaL Simmo Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Pittman unlocks the achievement even though he isn't IF. He was however a summer transfer, so maybe all players that were transferred after game was released unlocks achievement? I only need it and 50 hrs for the 1000.

PeaceSquid Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 From recent posts on this forum it looks like this still works. I tweeted the EA community/live/UT guy about it but he works for EA and so didn't reply or help in the slightest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dikon67 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I've just unlocked the achievement by opening bronze 750 coin bronze packs. Opened about 15 packs one after the other and it popped. Opened about 150 packs all together so glad to get this achievement out of the way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did it with regular 400pt bronze packs though, so that's probably the better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Der Fuhrer1604664276 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 A post on True Achievements confirms this still works.Pittman is a holographic player, so wouldn't it still be better financially to buy premium bronze (750) packs and get 3 rares instead of 3 standard bronze (1200) to get that same number of rares?

Hurball Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 (edited) Since I've spent over £100 buying gold packs now, and rightly feel like I've been used by EA's money making scam - this is what I'm buying from now on. As yet though, I've spent ~60,000 coins on bronze packs, and still no Pittman. Edit: JUST UNLOCKED THAT DAMN ACHIEVEMENT! Premium Bronze pack, but no Pittman. It was a player called Miguel Angel Llera Garzon at Brentford, a rare bronze player, but off to the right rather than with the rest of the players, as everyone's been saying. So yeah, don't give EA any money (as I did). Spend all your coins on Premium Bronze packs (selling the good items to make the coins back), and hope for Pittman or the dude I got.
