OT: Video Game Thread Part VIII

[Striiker]

What’s your reason?

I’m three points away from my first 45 points. Turns out playing with wingers makes a big difference.

“You deserved it”

And yeah, having a little pace makes a lot of difference. Now you get to share in the despair of finishing all those games just to get worthless rewards!

The Factorio expansion is incredible so far. Well worth the price.

How else am I supposed to get fodder for all of these expensive ass SBCs? That Barcola price is a joke. PSG isn't even really linkable this year with no Mbappe.

80x5 = all dupes, didn't even get my 84 back.

Yeah, that’s exactly the problem. The grind is painful, the rewards are trash, the packs are nonexistent, the upgrade SBCs are rare and trash, and the player SBCs are all jokes. That’s why I’ve done exactly one all year long.

And yep, 80x5, highest was 81. Pathetic.

Luckily on Friday the new CoD comes out so at least I’ll have some variety in my frustration and pain.

@FLYguy3911 took out my anger on FC25 after that Dortmund game

Finished up my last rivals wins and then went 5-0 in Weekend League qualifiers.

Every goal was followed by a celebration and full replay.
If they attempted one outside the box finesse shot, lob pass in the box, or kickoff glitch they got upgraded to a griddy and a full pause timer.

The hero upgrade was a fail.... got a Campos lol

Then put Campos + Berbatov from the last upgrade into the Varane SBC. Pretty much emptied my club doing the hero + varane in 1 day though

Did get an untradeable Saliba from one of the premium league sbc's today, not that they're super worth until prices go back down. So sold Van de Ven finally + Kounde and bought Aya Miyama + Xabi Alonso with the coins I had

What div?

Best thing I ever did was slow play Rivals. Was a breeze in 4/5.

Sucks for those nerds stuck in Elite.

I thought about the Hero pack at that price but then sampled some of the pulls and thought better of it. Usually when something is that "cheap" the pack weight is horrible. At least if you pull a crappy icons, they have premium chemistry links. I don't think I did one Hero pack last year come to think of it lol.

I did Kvara and Di Lorenzo the other day so I'm pretty tapped out on fodder. Want to do Varane but feel like he'll be behind the power curve by the time I get him done. See what they drop during the next promo.

Two wins from Div 2 but I don’t think I’m going to bother tonight.

And yeah, I’m the beginning div 5 was harder than weekend league
