Hurball Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 The most pathetic achievement I've ever seen. Still no sign of an in form player, not even an 85 rated player, in any of the packs I've bought... Still no in form, and when you think that my club is worth 75 million, you see how much I've put into this. If I resort to spending loads of MSP on this, I won't be buying any more Fifa games with anything even remotely similar in the achievement lists. Ever.

T0MB0Z Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I've said it before and I'll say it again. This is just a way for EA to squeeze more money out of people. I've spent well over a million coins on gold packs trying to get one. Assuming I'd spent 1.5m that would be the equivalent of 24,000 Microsoft points. That works out at nearly £200.

Hurball Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 I agree entirely - it's an achievement aimed solely at making EA some more money, and for their greed, they've lost me as a regular Fifa purchaser. Bought 09, 10, 11, and 12 on release, brand new. Yet they still want to rinse me for money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack101 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I don't know if this is a secret or not but anyway, I had a few spare coins a few weeks ago and decided to buy some packs. So I bought a pack with Rooney on the cover (of the gold premium pack) and got Nasri, before this though I was buying packs aimlessly without even realizing who was on the cover. So I thought I should get another pack with Rooney on the cover, which I did and got IF Muller. I then got the achievement for getting the IF player in a pack. With loads of money spare left from selling these players I decided to buy some more 'Rooney packs' and picked out David Silva and Xavi. So you know, you might wanna consider this proof: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashleary Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 It is an absolutely ridiculous achievement mate. I was lucky enough to get this pretty early and for some reason seem to get them pretty regularly (only buy packs in happy hour now btw). It is a massive shame it has to be a player opened in a purchased pack and not via a trade etc. Maybe next year, they should have a Gold, Silver and Bronze Team of the Week. Make it a bit cheaper for folk... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you know, you might wanna consider this proof: Must be honest I was sceptical about this. But first time I tried it, 20G popped! Only Fletcher from Wolves but I don't even care, so pleased to pop it. Afterwards I did try it again but this time it was an absolute nothing, so I've decided not to buy any more packs, I always thought they were a waste anyway. SO HAPPY TO FINALLY GET IT, thank you so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jediknights Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Can anyone confirm you can't get the achievement if you first buy the pack with the inform player through FIFA UT web? I bought one and to my surprise I got some CB from Senegal player in form. Loaded the game up and no achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a real shame that they just don't announce those Happy Hours on the ingame menu of FUT, that'd make things way more easier for everyone.

BSC YoungBoy Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Does Rooney ever show up on the front of gold jumbo packs? I tried making him show, but after like 20 tries, gave up. So can he show on jumbo, or is it only the 5k and 7500? Does this Rooney method work well enough to even buy these packs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IXISHADOW Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 The achievement is all down to luck, you'll get it when you least expect it, I have had 4 myself. Only 1 of them was without MSP. This is where I believe the problem is, it seems like you get better packs when spending MSP compared to coins. I would also like to add that these IF players would be pointless if they were as common as people hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kushty Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Ridiculous achievement, got 2 IFs within 3 days of each other, though after countless hours and packs opened. Both crap ones as well, 80 LW and 83 RW, sold for peanuts! Probs best to wait for when theres the player only packs, which is going to obviously increase chances due to more player cards! Got both of mine in player only packs, one was the Christmas day happy hour, and got another in one of the Christmas period special offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
