    Billionaire Takeover Now Available For User Team?

    Anybody else see that it's an option to "buy" a billionaire takeover for 2,000 "coins" or whatever? I like that they did that, gives an extra option for replay value sake if you (like me) play one CM with your favorite team and a separate, less serious one where you aren't as concerned with transfer market realism.

    Any thoughts on this? Anybody else plan on using it to keep the game a little fresher for longer? It's not like there's anything else worthwhile in that catalog anyways..

      It's not worth it because you can only use it once

          It's at level 26 and it's in the EA catalogue.

            I would like to hear more about it. I have a cash strapped club, but I would like to use the money to build a nice scout infrastructure. You only get the cash for one season?

              I can tell you I tried it out with 1899 Hoffenheim of the Bundesliga and it worked to the tune of a little over $40 million dollars as my budget went from $9 million to $50 mil.

                Perfect. I was wondering what kind of ballpark this was.

                Every year I like to try and take a 3rd division side up to the EPL, but it sucks after you get a couple promotions and the board is only giving you the same money you got back in the 3rd div. Makes no sense, and at least here it would be realistic for potential investors on a team about to get promoted.

                  I got totally screwed on this, I bought both, one in my liverpool CM and on in my Borussia Dortmund CM and neither worked, at all. Didn't receive any money, wasted 3500 FCC points, advanced multiple years in both and never got an extra dime. So thanks for that EA

                    What do we do if we never received the funds?

                        I don't think it's instant, is it? I assume it would happen towards the start of a transfer

                          The wording in the catalog leads me to believe it works just like for the CPU- they speculate in the media about the takeover, the takeover gains steam, then BOOM it goes through and is announced publicly, and the bank account grows. But i'm just guessing.

                            Has anyone had this work yet, and if so was it instant or how did you get it to work?

                              I tried it for the first time last night and it worked fine. Purchased the takeover during week 1, simmed to week 2, got a newsflash about the take over and wammo...had like $30,000,000 more in transfer money
