    I'd avoid buying coins at all this year. Not worth the risk.

    Previously, EA made it known that FIFA 15 would come under heavy moderation for expunging bots and coin-sellers. Given that FIFA 15 allows users to buy teams, players and make trades using virtual currency, it opens the door for middle-market purveyors to jump in and start to game the system. This is something that happens to just about every single microtransaction-based MMO out there, where gold sellers will attempt to undercut the price of goods sold on the cash shop (or the virtual currency being sold by the publisher) in order to make a profit by farming large amounts of gold and selling it for cheap.

    Basically, gold farmers use bots – scripted programs that auto-execute specific actions over and over again – in order to stockpile currency. In MMOs the bot scripts usually include having the character repeatedly kill and collect the coin from a group of specific monsters. Letting the game run all day long farming reaps them a decent amount of coinage at the end of the day.

    For FIFA 15, the botters were doing something similar – having bots basically buy up players for as cheap as possible and then selling them at a slightly higher price. After making so much money, the coin sellers would sell off or trade-off their earnings for real cash. These middle-market institutions have been around a while and it's a bit shocking to me that EA didn't expect to encounter them, especially after having several MMOs under their belt, including

    It's going to be solid to get a decent team in UT now. I hope they have countered this by increasing your chance of getting a better player in packs.

    * EA. They will reap the rewards of every * buying packs now rather than coins.

    Price ranges have * it just as much. Players not selling, and being unable to shift your team. Not to mention 90 rated players selling for peanuts.

    Will be ways round it as usual for the coins, most people will probably use fifa points anyway. Usually just play the computer in UT, * internet connection just makes it infuriating to play. They definitely need to increase the chance of getting 80+ rated players and in forms.
