18 Swap Tokens for the Rest.....

Icon Swaps and Ronaldo (44 y old veteran),

I understand that u need to put the effort to get 19 icon swaps and get Ronaldo , I am 44 y old this year and i play fifa since the first game they launched and never had a Ronaldo card ! I have a 12 years old son that also plays the game with me (mostly co-op rush 4vs4 and occasionally squad battles and rivals) 

Because i am a very casual player i played, i think over 100 games(most of them lost ofc) for the 4 tokens that forced you to play with premiere league , la liga and soo on against other players ; I manage to get them along with 5 tokens against the AI for a total of 9 Tokens in the first Round ! I am a div 6 player and sometimes qualify for UT Champions but get my **bleep** whooped big time in there so i had no hopes of getting the 10th token in the first round . My hope was that we will not get the UT Champions objective in the second round of Swap Tokens .... 

The dream is now broken, even if i loose weeks for the other objectives i will not be able to go over 18 total tokens because of that . 

My only hope is that EA will somehow, MAYBE,  let us: "working hard ,no talent... Noobs " maybe, buy a swap token from the store or at least give us something that we need to put time into, for one more token :(((

  • Mentioning tokens in the store was the worst thing you could have said. EA would LOVE another reason to take casual players money. I do agree however. As a casual player, this years FC is a complete sweat fest. You either spend hours frustrated and drained because of thrashing which is no fun at all. Especially when your rewarded basic packs which hold absolutely nothing in them, to then spend hours in the SBC tab playing pokemon swaps. FC26 has truly died for the casual player. I havnt played 1 game of champs this year because of the frustration, broken mechanics and crappy pack weight. As for the ICON swaps event. Casuals wont make enough tokens to earn some nice players, except Buffon. Id Like Cantona. Wont happen. And spending 3 coins on a basic Xabi Alonso is not worth the hassle. His card is basic. Bring back FIFA street. Thats fun for comp play. As for Rush, being penalised for leaving a game when people only use it to farm evos whilst placing their controller to the side of the table leaving usually 1 or 2 players running down the line as not to get kicked is a joke. Every game now is like 1 v 4 because people dont want to play the "Passing Game". Thanks for rinsing our pockets and giving us f**k all this year. Last Fifa I buy.

    I caved in and manage to get 17 tokens for the 93+ pick ! I had to pick between  Muller 93 , Prinz 93 and Puskas 93 …. So a complete waiste of time ! Better of with Buffon and Stoichkov !!! DON’T play rullete with EA….

  • These swap token objectives are really just torture from EA to players.

    If you genuinely play FIFA since the first iteration, how come you've never get a R9 card? At least you get to play R9 every year for 2 months after June in Futties. Even for a casual casual player.

    I played ultimate on and off very casual mosstly in the begining of the season and not every year , i played longer this season because of my son ! I dont even know what Futties are …. In fact this was the main reason for the grind to give him the chance to play the R9 in rush (that’s what he plays with me usually) . I  mostly play defenders in rush and i would preffer Roberto Carlos but didnt manage to gather the coins for him yet . I will look into futties event and if there is an easier way to get it in summer its good news thank you for the tip !
