The new update have been released by EA Sports already, but it seems that many FIFA 15 fans are not satisfied with this update for Ultimate Team, which is called Price Ranges and may help saving FIFA 15 Coins when buying a player in Transfer Market. EA thinks that this “Price Ranges” ensure a level playing field to all FUT gamers, it’s good changes for all gamers.
When the new feature of the association football simulation video game is activated, all items in the FIFA 2015 Ultimate Team including players, in-forms, consumables, and club items, shall have a Price Range.
Apart from setting the highest and lowest coin prices that each item can be sold on the Transfer Market, the Price Range shall also restrict illegitimate coin transfers on the same market, notes EA Sports in the FIFA 15 website.
Developed by EA Canada and published by Electronic Arts, FIFA 15 was released to the last gen and next gen gaming consoles and the PC on September 23, 2014. It is the first game in the FIFA video game series to be fully licensed by the Premier League.
Level playing field
EA Sports disclosed that while the Price Ranges for every FUT item will differ from the current prices, their relative value to other player items on the Transfer Market will remain consistent to ensure a level playing field for gamers.
The developer also said that all Price Ranges will be universal across all gaming platforms. Once a player puts an item on the Transfer Market, the range at which it can be sold will appear. This price range will be set by the FIFA team based on trends of previous Transfer Market prices.
Open bid transfers shall become unavailable after Price Ranges have been activated. So if a player wants to list an item on the Transfer Market, he has to set a ‘Buy It Now’ price within the Price Range.
The Price Ranges for each FUT item will be set wide enough for gamers. The feature for certain players may also be adjusted in the future as EA continues to improve it. Meanwhile, new ‘in-form’ FUT player items will receive a Price Range upon its release.
Fun and fair
While EA Sports see that there will be some period of adjustments among fans and gamers on how the Transfer Market and Price Ranges will take effect and impact the game, the developer sees long-term benefit on the change as it will make the video game more fun and fair for everyone.
Still, the developer is open to accepting feedbacks from fans and gamers despite the fact that it is confident that the balanced benefits of the Price Ranges feature will be more appreciated in the long run.
While changes on the Price Ranges are being effected, the Transfer Market will remain inaccessible from the web and companion apps, explained EA Sports.
