"I stayed in Div 1 for most of FIFA 20 for the ultimate packs," redditor JMclovin303 said. Still, it's concerning we're already seeing players relegating themselves in FIFA 21.
It was pretty rampant in FIFA 20, although for different reasons. "I'm sure some of you won't agree and will see this as a higher ranked player bitching, but why should I sit through 30 games against some of the best players on the game, only to get less rewards than I could just by smashing people who aren't as good as me?"Īs Dincht04 notes, self-relegation is an old issue for FIFA. "Rewards need to be seriously buffed for the higher divisions, otherwise we're going to see self-relegating even more than last year. "Why shouldn't I finish my 30 games this week, and then demote myself to D4 for next week, where I can cruise to rank one without breaking a sweat? "Where is my incentive to stay in Division 1 for next week?" Dincht04 asks. The upshot here is the rewards are marginally better for getting rank one three divisions below Division 1, which explains why players are self-relegating. Option 3: 2x Rare Players Pack (Untradeable), 2x Prime Gold Players Pack (Untradeable), 2x Mega Pack (Untradeable).Option 2: 1x Rare Players Pack, 1x Prime Gold Players Pack, 1x Mega Pack.Option 3: 4x Rare Mega Pack (Untradeable).Rank one is currently 16300."ĭincht04 compared their reward choices for rank two in Division 1, to rank one in Division 4:
For reference, I have played 24 games this week. "I will never get D1 rank one with the current system, because I don't win enough games in D1. "The problem comes when you start limiting how much I can grind my rank," low rank Division 1 player Dincht04 explained in a post on the FIFA subreddit. For most players, winning in these divisions is not guaranteed because of the skill of the opponent, and you only have a set number of games from which to earn weekly score.
As it stands, these top ranks in the top divisions are incredibly tough to achieve. However, some FIFA players actually want the grind to return, as it would mean they would have a better chance of achieving the top ranks in the top divisions. In theory this is a great feature, as I wrote in my FIFA 21 review, as it levels the playing field for those who don't have as much time to play as others.
This issue is exacerbated by the new 30 game weekly cap for weekly score contribution. Players have found there's no point sticking around the top divisions because the rewards are potentially better in the divisions below them. At least, that's how it's supposed to work. The higher your division and rank within it, the better your rewards. While your division (there are 10) is determined by your skill rating, which ebbs and flows as you win, draw and lose matches, your rank within each division is determined by your weekly score, which is obtained by playing matches (you get more weekly score for winning than drawing and losing).Īt the end of the week (Thursday mornings), your division and rank are used to determine which set of rewards you get - FUT Coins, FUT Packs (either tradeable or untradeable), or FUT Champions Points to help you qualify for Weekend League. In Division Rivals, your rank within your division determines your weekly rewards. The issue has to do with the rewards on offer and the new 30 game cap for Division Rivals weekly score contribution. Players are confessing to self-relegation in order to stay out of the top divisions of FIFA Ultimate Team's competitive multiplayer ranking mode, Division Rivals. FIFA 21 players are already relegating themselves just a week after the game launched.
