        No I mean the tip off in LUT. Right below head to head.

        If I can't change the difficuly this is a dumb move by EA.

        They already have the coin bonus for difficulty set up on the game. So if I have to play this on AllStar and get a 2.5 bonus or whatever I should have the ability to select pro or even rookie for my kid and get less of a payout.

          I wished I recorded the legend master challenge for evidence of how rigged these master games. I was ready to break my controller lol.

            This is exactly why I want to change the difficulty in LUT tipoff games.

            If I am going to burn 1 contract per player to play the game why am I forced to endure EA's locked difficulty instead of being able to just relax and enjoy playing the game and earn less coins?

            My kid in no way can beat All Star and is about 50/50 on pro. So basically I have left him the rookie challenges, but once he finishes those 9 games he can't play LUT anymore?

            And there is no get good, he's 8.

            This is a terrible decision by EA.

              You can not adjusts the difficulty in any ultimate team modes. In any sport. They are meant to be money grabbers and difficult. Am I right?

                I think you are right.

                I need to check another EA game that has exhibition games in UT. Which is what the tip off games are.

                I beat the nuggets a few minutes ago and the difficulty bonus was 90 coins.

                So would EA really be losing anything if they made it 120 superstar, 90 allstar, 60 pro, 30 rookie? Which I am almost sure how the bonus works when you play vs other cpu difficulties in LUT.

                I know in Fifa you can always adjust the difficulty upwards.

                  Re: Lut 16 thread

                  I think adjusting the difficult is defeating the purpose. It's meant to be tough. It's meant to not be easy to win those packs/cards.

                  Why would you want to anyway?

                  Every game up until the Master challenges are very beatable.

                  Yeah the Master AI cheats, but it has to. It's the top challenge. You miss out on all of 1% of the entire game content if you skip them. No harm done.

                      Question, I've been seeing a gold variety OKC arena card that has a 5K sell now price on it. What makes that so special?

                        Well, I wrote why.

                        These are the LUT tip off games under the head to head tile.

                        The ones you can play whenever you want against any nba team. Exhibition games basically. There are no rewards or packs you get from these games except gameplay coin payout.

                        Once my kid plays the rookie challenges he is done. He can't hang with all star difficulty.

                        We were having a lot of fun playing this together with him playing the easier games and I would help him on tough pro games if he was far behind at half.
                        Not everyone playing LUT is hardcore gamerz. Some are young kids too, in this case my 8 year old.

                        So I am looking at the ways/games to play that are left and he has 1 rookie game left.

                        After he plays that then what? So they lose a young kids interest in their game when you don't have this as an option.

                        I would compromise, I think you should be able to put the tip off games on any difficulty and just take less or more coins on which difficulty you choose.

                        But having them on pro default would be my compromise. I know nothing will change here. EA wont fix them.

                        And if you argue why should they? Well, then why are there any games in LUT below all star skill level? Why arent they all all star and lets exclude lots of people from playing the mode?

                          It's from the weekly coin up challenges. Nothing special about it except it's worth 5000 coins.... not a hot commodity unless you can get it for under 5 and make a profit
                          It's 'Sconnie not wiscy!!!!!

                              Picked up Live during the PS4 sale. Would never buy this game full price. LUT is still soooo much better than 2K MyTeam so that's nice. My only complaint besides the gameplay being a complete mess is no one is playing LUT. So there's no cards on the auction block. Sigh. Really hope they get it together for '17.

                                Just scored a John Starks 93-94 off the PS4 market for 4k, he was all the way out at the backend of legend search.

                                Had 7 points in his debut for me. A layup, 10 foot jumper and a corner 3.

                                Awesome on ball defense too.
