It’s a difficult one because it suits me perfectly due to time. However, I’ll be on 900 tokens after refresh (already spent 1000) without playing a game due to pending rewards etc. A couple of SBC’s and that’s the allocation done. More tokens then become a waste.

I dont get why we have a Token limit (1000) per week!
We got 1530 Tokens this week. 1230 via gameplay. 300 via SBCs.
Lets say the amount of Tokens we get per week is always round about 1500. Why should someone who is willing to offer his time to play SQB, Rivals, Rush and Friendlies offering coins/fodder to complete Token SBCs not be rewarded with more Tokens than someone "just" doing some Friendlies, Rivals and complete the cheaper Token SBCs? Makes no sense to me! We are in june, no one is forced to play everything (I would not play Rush for example either way and SQB I would not play every week too), but if someone spends the time on the game to complete everything, he should have an "advantage" compared to someone who is doing the "minimum (1000 Tokens)" (which is enough already for most).

Gartner coined a phrase (as they love to do) called the Hype Cycle. We’re seeing it live with the recent acclaim of Goals and efootball. It’s common but extremely amplified on social media. What starts as nothing but praise will inevitably turn into flaws being highlighted…

You’ll also see creators, and wannabes head straight for the gold rush. I’m already seeing more critical opinions on my timeline, very natural and at some point in the future we’ll arrive at the slope of enlightenment (a real term) where things balance out.

This is where “content” will get very interesting. Honestly, I don’t envy creators one bit, it’s a tough gig for sure but as always it’s worth having a critical eye open on what was said before, to what is said when the hype cycle dies right down.

Now speaking of tokens. Spent the first 1000 on this guy, the 3 x 93 FoF pack and I think pack 4 as well. I like the mixture of guaranteed and pack rewards, very good direction and I’m interested to see how this is applied in 27, same for the separate champs rewards.

Sanchez done and by my reckoning I have 900 tokens for next week with pending rewards and objectives. Now for me the token cap sort of works as I don’t play that often and to be honest, it’s been a breeze BUT, if someone plays more it would only be fair to reward accordingly.

So basically if you’re division 2 or below and suffer from gameplay issues it’s actually a skill issue and nothing to do with servers, connection or inflated mechanics. This is nonsense and detracts from the real issues in FC26.

Don’t forget league SBC’s to get rid of surplus gold commons. More rares and coins back overall. It’s not a game changer but helps the grind a tiny bit. #FC26

If, and it’s a big IF, but if EA can deliver some very good SBC’s over the next couple of weeks then content-wise the game is very much back on track.

Festival of Football off and running. Belted through the Visa event, saving any packs for tomorrow 💪

I wish more people understood this. It’s a very natural cycle that tbf has been exaggerated by the negative hype of FC26. Regardless of game state, it’s virtually impossible to do anything new and exciting in June that hasn’t been done thousands of times over already.
It’s the same game burnout cycle every year.
Use all the content in the first 9 months of the cycle.
Declare it dead and switch over to its nearest competition.
Every single year since 2017 and yet, in 3 months when a new game is out, they’ll be back to their bread and butter.

Guaranteed rewards for playing on its own it’s a great move and if implemented right and fairly even more so. But what happens to the menu grind now? I can’t see them totally getting rid of card recycling otherwise we will all have 1000’s of players in the club.
EA announced the new Tokens system is REPLACING existing player picks, packs, and guaranteed promo cards in Rewards.
So it's just Tokens Coins for rewards. Not sure how I feel about that 🙃

I spent yesterday playing rivals in FC26. First time I’ve played since before TOTY and it was largely a forgettable experience. Game felt the same; too much AI defending, crazy pressing, most teams set up the same and a few disconnects. There’s no grab at all. Shame.

Not a banger in terms of value but switching from league SBc’s to crafting upgrades brings a decent one 👍
