khartoun Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ej0fLEW_zUY]FIFA 12: Getting an IF (In-Form) Gareth Bale!!! - YouTube[/ame] opened 3 jumbo packs before this and the best I got was a De Rossi, just knowing it was gonna be one of those days, open a premium gold pack, see the achievement pop and see an IF bale! At first I thought he was only like 50k, but a quick search found that he goes for A LOT more..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tremberz Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Nice one. I got an IF Demba Ba last night, and he got sold for 85k! I'm sure your Bale will be more though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John SWFC Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I've been spending loads of ingame cash (I never use real money, that's ridiculous) on packs just to try and get the secret achievement, and finally after what must be nearly 200 packs I finally landed an IF player last night It was in a gold premium pack. The achievement popped before the cards were actually shown so there were a few seconds of relief, excitement and anticipation as I wondered which one it would be. Naturally I was hoping for a Van Persie, a Neymar, a Bale etc but typical of my luck it was the CAM from Bologna who's barely worth any more than his discard value! Never mind, this achievement is out of the way and I can now stop buying packs which are generally a complete waste of coins, and start to save up for the real quality players.

Wembley66 Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 (edited) If you pause the video somewhere between 13 and 14secs the word 'Bale' pops up very quickly so this must bear some significance to what you get in the pack. I never paid it much attention myself (partly because it is so quick). That and opening bronze packs isn't that exciting in truth. Congrats on getting it anyway, I'm dreading doing this myself. I've put it off for the time being until I have the growing club cheevo. Naturally I was hoping for a Van Persie, a Neymar, a Bale etc but typical of my luck it was the CAM from Bologna who's barely worth any more than his discard value! Just getting an IF is luck in itself. Some will never get this achievement (granted many of those will not buy 200 packs though).

Every pack you open a players name pops up as the cards line up next to each other. Its the name of the best rated player in that pack and happens regardless of wheter you get an IF or if you open bronze, silver etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dom7777 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 I just got an IF Nocerino Okay he's not the best and not worth a huge amount, but I thought I was never gonna find one! It was a gold premium pack incase anyone was wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eMiN10 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Your so lucky.. I will try to get an IF player during next happy hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schreckofant Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 (edited) I'm getting so fuckin annoyed by this bullshit. I've opened several hundreds of gold packs and still no fucking IF-player. I got players like Ribery, Silva, Fabregas and Neymar out of them (which is ok I guess), sold them all, opened countless more gold packs - NOTHING! It's ridiculous. I'm online with the Web App basically all the time I'm at home, trying to trade, but after getting the Growing Club Chievo today I'm losing my interest in UT ... I'd really like to meet that (/&()& who came up with the idea for that Achievement. Edited November 6, 2011 by Schreckofant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt x360a Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 i feel really sorry reading some of these comments. today i had a pack opening sesh and got 2 IF's which make them my 4th and 5th of fifa 12. still no brill ones but just crappy ones. its quite funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EngineerTheDead Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 It really is just the luck of the draw. I got an IF Belgian player (De Bruyne I think), and the achievement, in my first ever Jumbo Gold pack. Must be really frustrating for those who've actually worked at getting it and spent thouands of coins/MSP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schreckofant Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 The main problem is that, statistically, it is easily possible, that people like me will NEVER get the Achievement, even if they open a million packs. It's not like the super small percentage adds up after opening lots of packs, the chances always stay the same, so we could be opening packs forever, without getting the Achievo. You might even call the Achievement unobtainable for some people, complete bullshit by EA, f* them. PS: opened 5 more packs today ... not even surprised.

Because if your doing the latter, dont. I heard that to get the cheevo, you had to open the pack on your console. Just thought id say incase you got an IF and were expecting to get the cheevo the next time you went on UT (on your 360) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I've kinda given up my hopes on getting this Achievement The game is not so great that I'll waste 200 hours because of an 20 Pointer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill Jim 16 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 This is pure exploitation by microsoft/ea. putting in an achievement where u have to use msp or coins to get it. Total crap, and I can see more achievements in future based this way which will just drive gamers away. I myself have got 3 informs so far, 2 using msp and 1 from coins. I buy jumbo golds and nowt else, more of a chance with 7 rares in there. But several friends have spent 1000s with no such luck. I guess if your a completionist this could prove very expensive!

Er sorry to burst your bubble, but dont ALL UT achievements require you to spend coins/msp.

I Terry I 26 I Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 This is pure exploitation by microsoft/ea. putting in an achievement where u have to use msp or coins to get it. There's no need to spend msp, I have this achievement just by spending coins, and to be honest I haven't spent that many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate comments like this. People have a shitload of luck with something and start crawling out with comments, basically telling the other people how easy that crap is and that they should stop complaining about it. Let me tell you that I spent around 3000 MS-Coins for around 25 € + 600.000++ ingame coins on goldpacks and I still don't have the Achievement. Obviously you don't need to spend any money (and that's what they'd say if there ever were complaints against EA), but getting it without money is almost impossible if you are NOT lucky.
