Disgusted that FC 26 Beta - Transfer Market Access is behind a Paywall!

If you play Offline and don't pay a Subscription for Online Access to games you are unable to access the Transfer Market within the Beta for FC 26 Ultimate Team.

When you launch the Beta you are greeted with the Message "To access the Transfer Market, complete "On Your Way" Foundations Objective Group - Which is the 4th Objective Group that you have to Unlock in a series.

In the 1st Objective "New Beginnings" you have to play around 10 Moments, and Play 3 Squad Battles Games, while Playing the Featured Squad and scoring 5 Goals - very simple and so you Unlock the 2nd Objective called "Venturing Out".

In the 2nd Objective "Venturing Out" there are 3 Objectives:

Play 7 Matches in any Ultimate Team Game Mode

Play 3 Rush Matches

Play 3 Live Events

For me this is instantaneously impossible to Complete as I don't currently pay for access to Online Games. 

When I press Advance on the Rush or Live Events I am then greeted with the "Choose the plan that's right for you" and payment Options to subscribe to XBOX Game Pass etc - This is something that I will not do, which kills my Ultimate Team experience.

I feel that it is disgraceful that Ultimate Team started over 15 years ago and the UT Community have never had to Pay a Subscription in order to access the Transfer Market, so why has this changed now?

Though I'm grateful for access to the Beta, I would like clarification that Offline Players will be able to access the Transfer Market in the Full Version of FC 26?

    It's Ultimate Team within the FC 26 Beta only.

    None of the progress made in the FC 26 Ultimate Team Beta carries over to the Full Version of FC 26 when it is released in late September.
