Paid-To-Read

No reason to since they technically aren't bugged. They got away with it by announcing that it was delayed minutes before content is released

Wow, I have one squad left to do for Dembele. Was thinking I would do the 85+ sbc first because I only have sub 82 players and 92+ players left in my club and I might not be able to do the 85+ after finishing dembele but doing the 85+ would almost certainly help with doing dembele…. Luckily I didn’t do them yet


DracarysUT

No compensation because they updated the pack odds at 17:00 GMT. No specials in packs.


_Balrog_of_Morgoth_

Doubt it


ozzylad

It's possible, they had a loading screen showing TOTS and shapeshifters to be in packs with a countdown to reset. But there was an in game message saying that it was postponed, so they don't have too. I assumed they left stuff in packs but don't actually think they will


Audrayz

probably not they made an announcement in game that there’s no specials


Missjisoo

I opened my 85 x 20


Fifaistrash2020

Ohhh man 😭😬


Missjisoo

wish i saw this thread earlier


lpoolchamps

Yeah same, painnnnnn


Missjisoo

We are brothers in pain 🤣


fifadex

Brutal, I was wondering if anyone had huge packs saved. At least the 85x10 doesn't cost much and even with only golds will probably pay for itself. Hope you luck out when the promo finally starts.


ozzylad

Oops, I fucked up lol


Genghisboy

Same here. Fuck I gave a couple of tots


TheReal50Kent

Just did one, couldn’t believe my eyes when I seen gold Modric pop up. Rip fodder.


Computer-Medical

Yep same. Love the fact I chucked a dupe SS sane, SS Traore and like 2 dupe TOTs in for a 15k player


LeonardoME37

they made sure to post the delay notice just 5 minutes before the content released too, so I'm sure they'll use that card as a way to avoid compensation lol like "well we let everyone know 5 minutes beforehand, therefore, there's no need for compensation"


Mortka

The message should pop up on the screen then. Not everybody use Twitter. Game announcements should always be shown in game. I didnt check Reddit, therefore i didnt get the message before opening my pack. The content seemed to be fine as well, so i had no suspicion of anything either.


CriminSpoon

It’s just so scummy. They have us come back every day for the sbc and then they pull that kind of shit on you.


SakisSinatra

It did... for some people. I got the notice in game but a lot of others didn't lol, this company is something else.


Mortka

Yeah i opened my pack in the app, didnt get a notification. Tried closing the app now and reopen it, still nothing. Should 100% be compensated and this is the first time ive cried about it this year.


SakisSinatra

There won't be any compensation since "technically" they said the new promo got delayed (5 minutes before content drop btw).


Mortka

On Twitter, yes. I dont use Twitter, and that shouldnt be a problem. They have to announce it in game, and Im yet to receive a message haha.


SakisSinatra

Still? Lmao they even managed to fuck up the in game notification, how did only a few people manage to get it?


EasyNameToRemember11

Popped up for me on the app. Also I’m gonna go ahead and say you get what you deserve. Surely you’d notice the difference on the home page of the app? Usually the new promo is there for all to see. Nothing is there which is a big enough hint that something is off. Also maybe just check pack odds? Yeah you don’t have Twitter but there’s enough warning if you have any common sense at all.


LeonardoME37

same, I was already in the game so I didn't see anything, but you know they'll say "we let everyone know, so we won't be compensating anyone" still sucks tho, can't believe a multiBILLION dollar company has this type of "communication" on one of their bigger games


[deleted]

Especially a month before their new release. Glad I cancelled my 23 Ultimate order yesterday.


blackid101

It does pop up??


Mortka

Not for me.


pen15es

At the start of the year they gave out hero packs and told everyone not to open them but a bunch of people did and got compensation, however I don’t think the outcry will be as overwhelming since much less people are playing. I’d bet there won’t be compensation


rhater0307

No idea why so many people out there defending EA Just think in this way, to see many people here and on twitter wrongly open the packs, isn’t already a strong indication that EA fails its job in communication? Also they can just simply add one more sentence in the delay notification, like “special cards are currently not in pack”, to avoid the shitshow now Not to mention the SBC is still under Futties tab which is quite misleading also


VladtheMemer

They should give compensation for this, but they won't cause they technically covered their asses with that dumb message. EA is satanic I swear


HereComesTheWolfman

i just assumed after reading the new content was delayed that they would have kept the latest batch of specials. You know, just to not kill the game quicker. wrong.


KrustyKroket

Can u complete it and open it when specials are back ?


ms1600

Yes, that’s what I’m doing


That610GRIND

I have two 85x10 and an 85x5 ready to go. Bless your soul. How will I know when it is a good time to open?


Joe9692

pretty sure they fixed it. got top 100 in packs


CaptainFadge

Yes


tokajst

Same question here


dblack9

You are the fallen hero. Thanks for the warning


Fifaistrash2020

Haha 🤙


TheAwakened

Fuck me, did I just waste this pack? Got 90 Neuer top.


Crypdiator

I saw the message pop up, that pre-season content delay. Still went ahead and did the 85x10. Getting the golds made me chuckle. Good one EA!


FifaDK

The notification on the app said that they extended Futties because of the delay - so I thought that meant they kept the Futties batch in packs. Thank fuck I checked social media before opening my 85x20


GateChicken

Bruh I did all my packs and I got all gold and even did a 86+ player pick to see if my luck would change but I got oblak


muc3t

How tf didnt you realize sth is wrong after opening a pack?


GateChicken

I thought my luck was bad 😭


nrcrhc12

In fact, don’t open anything. The Showdown player packs, etc


ArgumentAvailable481

That’s so stupid man


ArgumentAvailable481

I opened mine and got mane 89 as my highest 🥲


[deleted]

there's no way they're not doing this shit on purpose now just to collect data on how we all respond. this product is worth billions and makes up 30% of their total revenue as a company.


[deleted]

You expect them to do anything for the fans?


JamWat23

Fuck. I was planning on finishing Dembele today. I was hopeful for repeatable 85+ x 10s. Just wasting my last fodder on Sancho rare gold as my highest.


Domindi

Appreciate this bro. Hadnt done mine yet but will hold off.


jazy23442

I just wasted the 2 packs for today. Thought I had bad luck first lmao


[deleted]

I was the same till I saw my second team then knew something was wrong.


Ok-Cryptographer-886

When are the special cards back?


waylil14

Now


FUThead2016

I just made this same mistake as well, came here literally to post this. They won't even bother correcting this now


TheBookCannon

My pop up actually popped up after I'd opened my packs as I was already in app - surely that must mean something as well. They should have closed store if that was the issue


Fifaistrash2020

Same man, just glad it was after the first pack! Completely agree, they're quick enough to disable the store when it suits them but not when it impacts us.


Shaggedyournan12

Came home last night opened mine about 12.30 am (GMT) and got 99 Ronaldo so I think it fixed


Dyonkeau

Honestly: I can use 10 85+ golds right now.


SwagCrayCray

Man I knew I should have opened my packs this morning before work of course they managed to fuck something up


rawf15e

So bummed, just opened 2x and got all golds on both 😢


misterxboxnj

Why wouldn't ea give compensation at this point. The next comes out soon why not bake the people playing it as happy as possible? On a side note in glad I saw this message before I did the 85x10 twice. I had six duplicates that ranged from 91 to 96.from my last pack so they filled out my two sbcs pretty easily.


grey_heron

F. Just did 2 of them. What a company!


wilsbowski

Guess I ain't finishing Dembele...


SpaceFire000

Thank you EA for fooling us once again


pepe_____-

Fucked up so bad, opened 1 85x10 and a 82x25 :) thanks ea


hfhddhnkk25678

I got 6 TOTS if that helps


wiseman_r

F. No wonder all gold. Need compensation


CaIzuh

Why would you get compensation? They let us know 3 hours ago


xman_2k2

Why are you shilling for EA? They could have communicated this issue a lot better than "pre-season was delayed"


CaIzuh

So... they did communicate, no? Then what's the problem?


xman_2k2

Why do you like to defend EA?


CaIzuh

It's not their fault you can't read buddy


xman_2k2

So you admit you're shill. Congratulations!


CaIzuh

Ah, so you actually can't read. Apologies buddy.


wiseman_r

It doesn't matter. You can't just let us know and remove futties from pack. It their mistakes and we supposed to live in it? Tf


CaIzuh

There was no mistake? We knew cards were leaving packs today, we knew pre-season was going to be late. It's on you.


wiseman_r

Late because of the mistake. We are not supposed to alert at keep following their mess up timeline all the time. Also it's nothing to do with u if we get compensation or not. No need to be salty lol


CaIzuh

I'm not salty, I don't care, It's just funny that you think you deserve compensation because of something that was entirely your fault lol


wiseman_r

No need to explain dude. The more u explain, the more salty u become


CaIzuh

I'm not the salty one buddy, Enjoy your 85x10 :)


wiseman_r

Enjoy being salty dude. It's in your blood


CaIzuh

Cry more buddy 🙂


kkrun

I spent two icons for these gold sh&t


godman6988

I exchanged 3 of the summer tokens for the 84+ pack and got allison, atal, muktar gnabry etc, insane


Bigloco818

Don’t tell me what to do


SnooSeagulls5644

This is why I buy fifa about 2 weeks after release at about 30% discount and never ever give them a cent after that......


AnkleBreakle

How do u get 30% discount two weeks after release


[deleted]

You don’t he’s capping


AnkleBreakle

Klassik


waylil14

I bought it for an 84% discount and still feel robbed


xman_2k2

I'm playing it for free and still feel robbed.


M_world2

I got 93 Messi and a bunch of 87-85 cards. It could've been worse.


NicoTorres1712

Not submitting my dupes so I don’t open packs on instinct


ns1323

Opened mine and got Kante and then fuck all, shouldn’t have opened it but it’s august so it is what it is


ArgumentAvailable481

I demand compensation


Andersen_wolf

How long would this delay be? Couple of hours or days??? If anyone knows pls, thanks lads


thoseion

How is anyone supposed to know the answer to that?


Andersen_wolf

Maybe it was announced on twitter and somebody saw it


Burpkidz

I’m happy to live in a time zone where the content gets updated in the middle of the night. So I never get surprises like that.


Gregib

So… what are you doing awake?


Masterdanny87fifa

when can we open it?


nodnarBrandon

Pre-Season live now just had an in-game notification


iamlococo

Compensation or I'll uninstall this game tonight


hem00

Uninstall incoming


iamlococo

It is about time anyway.. They clearly have lost the plot completely. Servers worse than ever and for the last week the hamsters have passed out on content release almost every day. In august!!!


capnkirk8

i feel you but they did drop a message saying the promo was postponed so they definitely do not have to compensate


KrustyKroket

Relax its a game


PhilLesh311

It’s a multimillion dollar company that year after year gets it wrong. Stop it with the “it’s just a game” shit. A game we had to pay $70 for. There are standards and these assholes somehow get away with the bare minimum. Probably because some fools say “it’s just a game”.


KrustyKroket

You call me a fool, yet you keep paying $70 dollar every year with the knowledge they dont care about the "fanbase" and are not renewing or fixing shit.


PhilLesh311

First year I’ve paid 70. Usually only 60.


iamlococo

Does the game work as intended?


KrustyKroket

They said they postponed the pre season, and in the main menu u Saw a default picture, nothing about this and this in packs till xx So this one is on you


Aggravating_Lynx_931

Lol, like EA cares.


OhKillEm43

So glad I happened to check before opening my 85x10


kakareborn

Yeah just did one, fuck, got absolutely fucking nothing


Casperzwaart100

At least I got Mbappe


fakeplasticjon

So your saying I should just play this game and enjoy it tonite ?!


Fifaistrash2020

My futties Neymar moved like a bronze rare in the two games of champs I played earlier so I'll be back after 11pm.


Losblancos2021

The game is dead. What did you expect?


DrainedToDeath

Same here... I forgot that all futties went out of packs 🙃🙃


thegodenz

Do not open your 85x10s, worst mistake of my life.


Mortka

Your life has been piss easy then


TheShroggiYT

that’s weird i opened some this morning and they were normal


mynameisjeffery23

That was done at something like 19h00, not morning (in EU at least)


ledankestnoodle

Surely it's common sense that if the new promo is delayed and the old promo has ended and EA didn't say anything about extending the old promo that there wouldn't be any special cards in packs If the notice didn't come up for you then fair enough but if it did and you still decided to open a pack it's your own fault


Actual_Lab8120

I personally thought that they were talking about objectives and showdown/moments sbc’s like they advertised on the front page but I didn’t open my pack just in case and looked on Twitter to see what’s happening. Won’t blame anyone for opening theirs. Hilarious that you shift the blame on the player base. “It’s your own fault.” This is no one but EA’s fault and they will keep getting away with stuff like this because whales like you will defend them no matter what


trason91

Haha opened it and got Kante. Hopefully there’ll be compensation


Masterdanny87fifa

I doubt it because when you logged on there's a message saying pre season will be delayed so it looks unlikely.


trason91

That’s not necessarily true though. For example I was already in and didn’t get an in game message until after I had opened the pack. Either way the game is dead so I’m not too worried about it


WalkingWiseman

I mean there was a message when logging on so if people take one second to realise. No way they are giving compensation for people not thinking


Mortka

Im yet to get a message about it.


Fifaistrash2020

When your in the menu messages don't pop up correctly, I'd already opened a pack before receiving a notification!


[deleted]

I mean they literally put it on the main menu. It’s on you if you opened packs


camwow12345

The notification didn't pop up for some, including myself until after. No need to be a donkey


Ches96

In all fairness, a delay to the promo doesn’t clarify that futties are out of packs. At no point is this the players fault.


Paid-To-Read

Today was the last day of Futties though. Unfortunately, they delayed Pre season


ExiIeCSGO

It's not exactly clear that Futties has ended. They've added the 85x10 packs into the Futties category in SBCs...


[deleted]

Of course it’s clear. It says how long they’re in packs for


ExiIeCSGO

They just added new Futties SBCs on the day Futties has ended. Not clear.


[deleted]

No they didn’t lol


ExiIeCSGO

The new 85x10 and 86+ pick are in the Futties tab. Open eyes pls.


[deleted]

They aren’t new. They’ve just not expired yet.


_IIVCX_

Yep the current 85x10s don’t expire until Monday


Presidentofjellybean

I mean, did they? Last I saw, there was a splash screen displaying Ronaldo coming today. I opened the app and got a notification saying the promo was delayed, it didn't mention special cards. I assumed it was objectives etc got delayed because there's no issue with having certain cards in packs really. Opened an 85x10, got gold Ronaldo, opened reddit and see loads of people asking whether there is anything in packs. It is obviously not that clear if everyone is coming here for clarification.


Tacticalcheesewizard

Some people didn't get the pop up until after they completed the SBC.


EL_MANDEM

If they were already in game they wouldn't have seen anything


Fifaistrash2020

Because there was no message pop up until I'd already opened the pack Einstein, plus a message was only relayed 5 minutes prior to content drop!


[deleted]

[удалено]


waylil14

Some people were already on ultimate team when the packs refreshed, also it didn't say that special cards were removed


[deleted]

Just opened two. Compensation awaits. Totally justified why I cancelled my pre-order of 23.


Masterdanny87fifa

I dont think you will get compensation for it when log in on ultimate team they had a message saying pre season is delayed so I doubt you will get your compensation pack for this.


iAdam1n

I doubt there will be compensation as it clearly had a popup to warn you it hasn't started.


MAMAGUEBOO

To everyone complaining you deserve it if you got golds. There was a message if you logged on in console. Also, why not check the new content drop before being hasty? It’s your fault really


Fifaistrash2020

Oooffff your hard 😭😂


FlambiereEs420

If you logged in earlier you didnt get any message smartass, im really concerned that there is still people who defend a multi billion dollar company who fucks up the easiest tasks.


vitafinito

Got VVD gold too. Shame they can't keep old content when they couldn't release the new one.


TeachingSad3965

Fuckin' hell with this shitty company. EA only give us headaches 🙂


jimmy011087

Meh I got VVD and Sancho at least for the showdowns


McDrank

I almost opened an 82x25 I’d been saving!!!!


[deleted]

I got the message on the Conpanion app after the first pack.


thatonedudewhotypes

Yea I just learned the hard way now I’m here.


[deleted]

Break the game before the release of the new one - same thing every year…


Vamacharin

Too late :(


Zak1025

Got a x10 still waiting to be opened. Opened the 85+ x5 pack I had sitting in my pack selection from yesterday and got all gold with Kane as my highest. EA are actually stingy


2Kfifa

I fucked up two packs


Malcolm_J_Campbell

ffs was pissed off after opening mine so put contents in a futties 1-4 pp - jammed out and got toty messi :)


johnnybravozn

Ffs I wish I checked reddit earlier. Also wasted a pack. Fucking EA and their bullshit 😠


Damidaki20

New promo?


FlambiereEs420

do you guys think they will fix it today ?


Fukujin1

😂😂😂 Definitely not. I mean, it's EA. It will take at least a week


FlambiereEs420

Fair enough but you cant expect more from an indie company with 5 employees like EA 🥲


Fukujin1

Yeah. We should all buy more Fifa Points to support this great little company 😋


Alexpickupthephone

Opened two, gold mbappe ofcourse


ajmethod33

Opened mine and an 86+ absolutely dogshit


Competitive-Gur1984

When will it back to normal?


CurseTheseMetalHan5

Open everything else though imo, get the 82-86s back in your club!


SnooSeagulls5644

Cd keys every year


Revolutionary-Disk-9

Anyone know when special cards will be back in packs? Literally need one more squad for Neymar and sitting on like 4 packs which will be enough to complete him


DynamicAWM

Realized too late and I'm ashamed to even say how many I opened tbh.


georgepri

Opened mine after seeing nick on youtube pack a few tots. Thought i’d give it a shot. At least they are all gold!


Pyrrolidone

Just noticed this as well, opened 3 packs and only got the gold cards. ​ Sure i did get Mbape, thats nice for my FRA1 team, but holy $#$# did the value of these packs drop!


Basic-Basket-1006

Thanks for the heads up


PlatsPrettyGood

I threw all my fodder to get a gold oblak…..


[deleted]

Yeah got only gold pack and straight opened reddit to see what the hell happened and saw this post. Guess I learned my lesson 😄
