Better guide for making coins:
The one thing everyone loves to do on FUT is make some coins! This is fundamental to creating a good team, and there are many ways of doing it. I'm going to run through a few of the ways I know, and have used successfully.


Playing matches and tournaments
Although not the most lucrative method, playing matches is still a reliable, consistent method of making money, however slowly. You should earn an upwards of 600 coins for every won match, offline or online. However, what makes this not 100% consistent is the fact that contracts cost money, and if you are constantly playing games, your players will require contract cards to continue playing for your team. One way to increase your profit is to participate in tournaments which reward you with a coin bonus if you win the tournament which can usually pay off the contracts you used throughout the tournament, so you don't have to spend the coins from playing games on contracts.


59th Minute Method
This technique is very popular, and is very well known. All it really entails is going to the 59th minute of auctions, and waiting for cheap Buy It Now's to come up. You need to search for Gold players in one of the top leagues (BPL, La Liga, Seria A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1), and set the max BIN as how much money you have. It can sometimes take a very long time to get across to the 59th minute (depending on the parameters used), so a Cheat Engine can help you out (Windows only). If you're lucky, you can get some amazing deals by doing this, here are some that I've seen recently...
  • Javier Hernandez - 7k (Sold 25k)
  • John Terry - 200 (Sold 40k)
  • Wesley Sneijder- 400 (Sold 46k)
Example of a 59th minute deal!


Bronze Pack Method

This method usually works better nearer the release of Ultimate Team, and is also very simple to do. All you do is simply purchase a standard bronze pack, and sell everything you do not want. It is best to start everything at 150, as putting a buy now can limit the profit you make! Some bronze players (the shiny ones with high pace), can be worth up to 20k, so watch out for these when you open your packs!

Silver Pack Method
This is the same as the bronze pack method, but with silvers. It is more risky, as you are spending more, but can lead to higher profits!

Gold Pack Method
This is even riskier than the other two, and I probably wouldn't recommend doing it. Although, if you are lucky with this method, there are very high profits to be had!


Buying and Selling Players
You've probably heard the phrase “Buy low, sell high” before. This usually applies to anything that involves some sort of currency and trading, and it is no different for Ultimate Team. By looking for players who you can resell for a profit, you can take full advantage of this simple technique. I would recommend starting out with a few selected players who you know you can make money on and looking for good deals.
2 Examples of the Buying and Selling method
Gold Discard Method


This is a method that needs some money to make money with, but guarantees a 120+% return every time. All you have to do is search 'Max. Bid 250' and 'Gold' player type, and then bid 250 on as many 75/76 rated players as you can find. Once the auction has finished, you simply go to your watch list, and if you won the player, you 'Quick Sell' them, for 300/304 coins. Instant profit! You should avoid players rated over 77 and players in the top rated teams, as you are less likely to win these for 250 coins. I have used this method to go from 10k to 30k in a night, but it takes quite a lot of work!

Probably the best site ever for Ultimate team:

12: http://www.ultimatedb.nl



There on NO duplication glitches of any kind, anyone who tells you otherwise is lying, no matter how legit it seems DO NOT give them your players.



Always watch out when clicking links

Check the bottom left hand corner before checking links, shown below:

I'm on a Mac but you can understand what I mean, also; Safari doesn't show the looks but if a site ever asks you to enter your password check the web address.

And lastly on this topic, what people tend to do now is copy their 'Share URL' but it actually links you to the phishing site, example: http://www.ea.com/uk/football/fifa-ultimate-team/app#ezA1Xf3mbatWv

What it actually is, is this:
Code:
[url="http://www.se7ensin.com"]http://www.ea.com/uk/football/fifa-ultimate-team/app#ezA1Xf3mbatWv[/url]

pmzipko said:
For those that still don't get it, when you enter the email and password into the menu they tell you, you aren't actually logging into their account. What you're doing is changing the login info for YOUR account to the email and password they just told you. So now that your account is accessed with that username and password, when you dashboard they can log into your team.

Info on Phishing
Basics
EA won't give you help with, but I will.

Phishing is an internet term that involves the creation of fake sites in order to obtain people's information. Some utter tools have applied this concept to UT '11 what with the release of the web browser, and some on this forum have started posting these pages in order to get people to give them their login details.

I know what you're thinking. "I'm not that stupid, why would I give random strangers my email and password?"

Well, they're clever, these cretins. What they have done is created a page that looks exactly like the login page for the UT web browser. A picture of a section of it is below.
PhishingLinks2.png


Now we're starting to see how clever these guys are. That page is identical to the Web Browser in all ways but one - that tab at the top of the browser. Circled with red, you can see the green square with symbols on it. That shows you that it is not legit, that if you type in your address and password it will simply put the data into a spreadsheet for the hackers and tell you that you failed to log in.



Preventative Measures
1) Set the browser to remember your login details. That way if the site is legit, your details should already be in the box, or at least come up when you sart typing.
2) if you are already logged in, and you are asked to login again, you are probably on a phishing site. Reload the browser to make sure you're online, and if it asks you again, close the phishing window and report whoever posted it.
3) ALWAYS check the tab at the top of the internet browser. ALWAYS. It's the easiest way to tell.
4) Also, ALWAYS check the web address. It won't be identical to the official browser's web address. Some clever phishers disguise their links, so always check it.
5) If you think you have ust given your account details away, CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD. You can still save your stuff.




Things To Remember:
1) You cannot get hacked without typing in your details. If you click on a phishing link, you have not been hacked. Type your information into it and you are. So be careful; utlimately you have messed up if you do, so be cautious.
2) Not every link on this forum is a phishing link. It is a real danger, and many people have had their cards stolen by it, but do not treat anyone who posts a link as a thieving gypsy. They're always safe to click, just be careful with your details.
3) EA are incredibly unfeeling on this subject - they avoid the topic at all costs, yet within thirty seconds of a thread selling signatures for 500 coins pops up they close it in fifteen seconds. This forum has the worst customer service I have seen in a lengthy gaming career. So make as much noise as possible about getting hacked, because they need to start taking notice. You are at fault if you are hacked - it is also EA's fault for not clamping down on Phishers, and making details more difficult to get hold of and change.




New to ultimate team? Read this!
The Forum


Where best to start about UT12, than the place where the FIFA Community thrives. Here you will find answers to almost any question UT related.

You can discuss your favourite leagues, teams and everything that's happening in the UT world. But first, I will talk you through the "forum terminology" you will find here:

c = Coins

k = thousands of coins (500k = 500,000 coins)

TOTW: Every week, a selection of players will recieve upgraded cards, based on their Real Life performances of the previous week. Revealed on Tuesday, released on Wednesday, 6pm GMT. Collectively known as the Team Of The Week


IF: In Form, name given to the upgraded card of each of the Team of the Week players

SIF: Second In Form, name given to an upraded card who has featured in the Team Of The Week for the second time. The same goes for TIF (Third in Form) and so on.

NIF: If there is an IF of a player, people will refer to his normal version as NIF, basically meaning Not In Form, so people can distinguish between the various upgrades

TOTY: Team of the Year, similar to Team of the Week, except given based on a players' performance for the whole year



The do's and don't's of the forums


If you want to be helped here, these are the things that you must (or mustn't) do here

Do

Always be helpful
make positive contributions
Be friendly
Be fun

Don't

Scam
Beg
be rude to other forumers
Break any forum rules
Troll (not offering positive contribution)
Steal avatars/sigs, there are plenty to go round



Twitter



Twitter is where you will find out about all upcoming UT news. EA FLT releases the Team of the Week every Tuesday night, via this account:

http://twitter.com/#...TheRealGraoully

You can also follow EASportsFIFA on twitter, via this account:

http://twitter.com/#!/EASPORTSFIFA
EA Football World



Most likely where you found this forum, here you can find the FUT podcasts by Christophe and Paul. Various competitions, with prizes such as free Premiership tickets, and in game rewards.

You can also upload your favourite goals to this website, and access the FUT12 web-app, where you can manage your squads, chemistry, and trade (see later sections).
The Web-App



The Web-app is an online application, allowing the user to buy and sell players, and manage squads. It will go live at around 5pm GMT on Tuesday 20th September.

https://www.ea.com/u...a-ultimate-team



The Market

The Market is where you can buy and sell your players, for profit, and to get the players you desperately need to finish off your squad.

It works very much like an Ebay style market, with the option to bid for players in an online auction, or buy the player now, if you can't stand waiting
69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif


You can also send trade offers of players of equal value. A players' value is mainly determined by their rating and cardweight (how many times they appear in packs).

In the trading thread (which is pinned), you can even arrange trades with other forumers.
3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif

Money Management

One thing you don't do in UT, is fly into buying players, as you can soon end up potless. If you're buying a team, you must know approximately how much each player will cost. So you don't spend more than you need to, or worse, be left with half a team. This is where TeamBuilders come in, they often know the market, and can guide you into what players to buy, how much to pay, formations and more
3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif


You should always have a back-up plan. If you make a couple bad trades, you should always have about 10-20k to fall back on, so you have enough to start trading again



Hidden Gems



You've got a player in a pack, but you're not sure if he is valuable, here are the things to check for:

If he has 4 or 5* skills (found in in-game stats screen, via the pause menu) The skillers here will pay a lot to use him.

high rating, the most obvious
8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif


forum reviews: If the player has good reviews from the community, his value goes up

Current market rarity: If there is only 4 or 5 of said player, he is rarer, and thus more valuable
3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif

Squads



When it comes down to it, what do most want from Ultimate Team? To get the team they strive for. But before you dive headlong into buying the best, there's a few things you should know first:

Chemistry: Chemistry is a returning idea from previous editions of Ultimate Team, and determines how well the team will play together. This is determined by factors such as same nationalities, same league, same club, position and formation. A player who has all of these with his Team-mates will play much better than a player who doesn't. Managers also affect your chemistry, without nation links to the players, or a correct formation, he is pointless
8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif


Contracts: every player and manager is on a contract, different contracts can be found on the market, of different values. Once a player is out of contract, he cannot be used until the contract is renewed.

Fitness: If you run a player into the ground, his fitness goes down. If a player lacks high fitness, he won't perform as well. Fitness can be recovered by fitness cards, or simply rotating the squad

Morale: If you lose a match, your team's morale goes down. As with fitness, low morale = low performance. This can be recovered by morale cards, or winning matches
8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif


Star Rating: All of your players count towards an overall team rating. You will be matched with players of a similar overall rating


Back-up Plan

Always keep at least 2 squads. So that, if your main squad gets injured/low fitness, you can rest them. You can even play with your 2nd team only to raise funds for your main squad
3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif

Tournaments



In game tournaments, all have certain entry requirements (x amount of players from same nation, etc.) A max/min star rating, and a star prize.

You can either play offline, against the AI, or online, against other members of the Community. The reward will be higher if you play online

Money Making Techniques



No doubt, this will be the most popular section of the guide
8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif


Technique: Buy low, Sell high
Description: capitalise on bargains in the market by buying them, and selling them for a higher price
Pros: can result in huge profit if you know what you are doing
Cons: You really need to know the market, if you want high success here
Success rate: 3/5

Technique: 59th Minute
Description: Capitalise on mistakes by sellers who don't know the market, by purchasing huge bargains
Pros: probably the biggest bargains to be found are here
Cons: takes a while to get there, and you will go through a lot of competition to get those deals
Success Rate: 2/5

Technique: Discard method
Description: you can discard gold players for a few hundred coins, if you can find them on the market for lower, it's slow, easy coins
Pros: a secure method, you can't really lose money on it
Cons: takes a while to get anywhere with it, loses huge amount of bid tokens if using the web-app
Success Rate: 4/5

Note: On web-app, you are looking for the "quick sell" button

Quick sell prices:

Bronze = OVR * 0.3
Silver = OVR * 1.5
Gold = OVR * 4

Rare Bronze = OVR * 0.75
Rare Silver = OVR * 3.5
Rare Gold = OVR * 8

IF Bronze = OVR * 20
IF Silver = OVR * 70
IF Gold = OVR * 122

(Values are then rounded to the nearest whole number)
(Thanks to Chuz for this)​

Technique: High Value Pack-Pulls
Description: You can get packs of players and consumables in packs. Find a high value player, or even better, a TOTW player, and you could have enough coins to build a dream team 3 times over
Pros: not relying on other gamers for success
Cons: Extremely low Success Rate
Success Rate: 0.5/5

Software

Last year, Autobuyers were used by the Computer Geniuses amongst us to take bargains before everyone else. EA is coming down hard on these. But there is no guarantee they won't be used again

Packs



Packs give you players, staff, consumables, and other accessories for you club. They come in 3 categories. Bronze, Silver, and Gold. Each giving player value corresponding to their name.

Under each category, lies Reular, or Premium. Premium gives you more chance of getting rare players than Regular, but at higher price.
Play-a-Friend



As of UT11, you can play your online friends with your Ultimate Team, without affecting contracts etc.

If they are online, you can play them. Or you can just play their team, with an AI opponent
Play the TOTW


as mentioned earlier, a TOTW is released every Wednesday. Now you can play against the TOTW. In an offline match.

Hacking, Phishing etc.



The most important section to read. Unfortunately, this still happens, under various disguises. First off, give your e-mail, password and security question to absolutely no one.

Also, never use your EA log-in to a site that does not have the URL "www.ea.com". People will send you links to a website, disguised as an EA site, when in fact, it is a dud, and as soon as they have your log-in, your players and coins are theirs.

Never respond to someone who says he is an EA representative who asks for your e-mail and password, as he is also a scammer.

If you enter your details, change your password ASAP. There may be a chance that they don't have time to hack in

Also, don't do cross-console trading unless you 100% absolutely trust your middle-man, as he can easily run off with your players. But, don't put too much faith in an online friend

Scenario A

you've been hacked, and you're not sure how. But you think it might be that fake duplication website you used last week. What do you do?

Unfortunately, nothing. It will be seen as your fault you were hacked. You can try on here for a kind soul to donate, but many will tell you to move on

Scenario B

You've been cheated. A so-called cross-console "trader" has done a runner with your coins. What do you do?

Now, here's some better news. If you can provide sufficient evidence against the scammer (pm's, screenshots), you can pm Ea Yasha. The scammer may recieve an EA Account perma-ban, and you may recieve compensation. Nothing is guaranteed though
