To earn 100million coins via gameplay FC 24 Coins , ScudzTV estimated that he would need to play 22,000 hours of FC Ultimate Team, which equates to 916 days of around-the-clock gaming.

FC Ultimate Team offers players other ways to earn coins, one of which is through player trades. ScudzTV addressed this, stating that: “Assuming I trade 10k every 10 minutes, I will need to trade for 1,650 hours or 69 days of trading 247.”

Speaking with NME, ScudzTV discussed his motivation behind the tweet: “I did this because there have been numerous occasions of EA stating that 16anyone can get any player they want when this simply isnt true. Those who want to play UT competitively will need to spend weeks on end playing or spend tens of thousands of pounds.”

ScudzTV isn’t alone in his frustration, with countless fans having voiced their support for his Tweet.

This is just the cause I stopped playing and buying FC. Just played 19 and 20s editions and, not only all your statement but also the manipulation of this game, made me hate everything about it. This company is just miserable. Now Im happier and mentally sane, enjoying games
This isn’t the first time EA has been in the spotlight over FC Ultimate Team, after the Netherlands Gaming Authority declared loot boxes illegal during October last year. In the ruling, the authority claimed loot boxes were associated with the “risk of gambling addiction,” a claim which EA refuted.

Speaking on a potential fix for the issue, ScudzTV commented: “EA Sports could fix this by listening to the community, who have mirrored the sentiments in my tweet for some time. Ideally, the developers would change in-game pack weights to reduce pricing and increase availability of items”.

ScudzTV added: “I don’t believe monetisation in the wider industry is an issue, but I believe loot boxes and over-monetisation are. I’m more than happy to buy a player or in-game item for say £15, but I don’t want to have to buy FCUT 24 Coins spend £100 and open four boxes in the hope I might get it.”
