Our guide to getting started on FUT in FIFA 22

FIFA 22 hasn't been released yet, but FUT mode is already being talked about. The most competitive of game modes returns for a boiling 2022 season. Our beginner's guide for those wishing to embark on the adventure.

[Updated September 24, 5:55 PM] To begin with, FIFA 22's FUT mode would need to be defined. This is a competitive game mode, where players build and manage their own team, before engage in ranked games in one against one and two against two. FIFA Ultimate Team (or FUT) is an entirely different world to the "classic" FIFA experience, it's a much more complete mode, difficult to pick up and extremely competitive. But it attracts more and more people every year, attracted by its complexity, its depth and its rewarding side. It is a mode that requires time and dedication, and if desired, money. But we will not leave aside there, this guide being a simple set of advice for players wishing to embark on the FUT adventure, without spending a penny.

And yes, because it must be remembered, FUT is based on the acquisition and sale of players, which we accumulate via packs that we can obtain by completing objectives, or by putting money into them. . The players each have one or more cards, with their own statistics, which divide them into four categories; bronze players, silver players and gold players, as well as special players, the latter being the most difficult to obtain. To give you an idea, the biggest players in FUT spend several thousand euros at the start of the season to multiply the purchases of packs and put together the best team possible. But out of the question for us to spend a kopek there

The basics of FUT mode

Division Rivals and the transfer market

FUT mode is therefore based on the composition of a team, with which you will face other players in the Division Rivals mode in order to climb the levels that make up the divisions. There are 10 Divisions and an Elite Division, with Division 10 being the weakest, and Elite the strongest. Your team is made up of players with different ratings and statistics, some of whom you can sell to earn credits that will allow you to acquire other players. The transfer market in FIFA FUT is complex and is based on the same principle as an MMORPG auction house. Player prices are fluctuating and depend on their popularity and their value in a team at a given time. The stronger the player is in a FUT team, the more expensive it will be. Conversely, a player who is very expensive today may very well see his value divided by ten in a week. That's why you have to deal with the transfer market sparingly.

The collective score

Your team can consist of players from any club, country, division. However, it is essential that these players have at least one link between them. This link can be a nationality, a league or even a club, and the stronger it is, the more your team's collective score will increase. A good, playable team must have a collective score of at least 90. This will give its players additional statistics. It is therefore necessary to know how to balance your players between individual level and collective score.

Weekly rewards

The more you play FUT, the more weekly rewards you earn. Each week, challenges will be offered to you which, once completed, will allow you to win player packs. Do not hesitate to consult them every week to maximize your chances of obtaining new packs.
