Add more ways to get Rank-up Points
Hi EA Team, I really enjoy the game so far, but there’s one thing that feels quite unbalanced for new players... The only consistent way to get rank-up points right now is by playing Scouting Camp....

In fact I prefer back going to the old system of URPs. It had lot of flexibility. 1 mascherano exchanged at 100 doesn't offer any parity as even first rankup costs different for different ovr cards (exceeds 100 for most decent ovrs) and we lost the flexibility of using duplicate cards of Same type to rankup.
I mean, I don’t mind if they stick with this new system, but getting Rank Up Tokens needs to be easier. The current rank-up system combined with the lack of other ways to earn Rank Up Tokens just feels like hell.
I agree that there are not enough tokens to get, compared to getting Mascheranos left, right, and center in the past. Keep in mind that a lot of Hero and Icon events that regularly dished these out have disappeared too. I definitely don't want to see URP cards back, as these just clog up your inventory.
Playing PVP at this point in time is also pointless, as H2H is in an unplayable state, and even extending it to VSA will come with similar issues.
A hybrid where you can use one or the other (same card and/or rank points) would be nice, but it does add complexity, given the current issues with gameplay. Probably, we don't even want them to start messing about and getting distracted from fixing the two elephants in the room — latency and gameplay.
The positives with the new ranking are that some older but still great cards for themed squads are slightly cheaper to gold rank, and your inventory doesn't get clogged.
Negatives are the inability to use the same card to rank up (for example, you can’t train up 70s to green for higher XP), more expensive 110+ rank-ups (equivalent of two URPs, so 200 ranks), and overall harder to get.
Cost for referencesdzrtr yes the new rank up points system holds an advantage over URPs and you have rightly put it together but that's not the issue. The issue is the lack of availability of the rank up points. Even in Zlatan Chronicles I don't find rank up points after chapter 1. It's just meagre coins and gems as rewards and the chronicles event has always seemed to me as a joke because they offer the players at an OVR that is always lower compared to what is peaking at the moment. This can surely help newcomers in the game but for F2P players like me with a 116 OVR team, getting Zlatan now doesn't make sense. It even didn't make sense when it released because the 110 and 111 players were already in the events and considering that by the time we get 110 zlatan many high ovr options would be out.
Not deviating much from the topic, right now I have got 4 players from the current event. But how do I rank them up when I am not getting enough rank up points. There's terrible scarcity of rank up points in the game and in the new Rewards 4 chapter, I got only 60 rank up points and 4 shards. It's like EA giving tip to beggars. What am I supposed to do with the vast resources I just unearthed in this chapter?
And what did my first sentence say? 😉
"I agree that there are not enough tokens..." :P
Anyway, you don’t need to upgrade every card that drops. Think about the theme or what actually fits your squad. I only upgrade Icons or Heroes I liked back in the day, ideally Juventus or Serie A. That way, it’s more personal and not just random filler.
Chasing OVR for the sake of it doesn’t do much, especially when gameplay still has its own problems. Better to build something with purpose than just slap together the highest numbers.
I actually see no point now as i have spent a little to catch up/compete with my squad as a newbie over past couple months but I have top players in most positions all on blue rank which was hell to achieve and costly as shouldn't have to pay but my point is just to rank one player to orange will cost 420 + 560 + 700 = 1780 rank points just to rank up one player. So 1800 points × (11 just for starting XI) = 19800 rank up points. Nooo way am playing these games or wasting anymore time unless they drastically improve rank up points
Yep, this just makes no sense at all.
Imagine grinding hard to get those players, then having to grind even harder, almost impossible just to get rank-up points for them.
And when you finally manage to rank up two players, a new event comes out with higher OVR cards. At the end of the day, we’re still stuck with low-OVR players in the squad, trying to play competitively in Division Rivals. We can never catch up.
