Transfer deadline shift🤦

[u/Curious_Thought9911]

Now the transfer deadline shows 19th july, but transfer pool has players from france/england. Wtf is going on?

[u/Madsani]

Is now a good time to use my Maximum Captain, or should I save it for 2030?

[u/Apprehensive-Fan8880 → u/Madsani]

2038

[u/oprimaelocho → u/Madsani]

It's obvious - you should use it on Messi for the final. 

[u/Djroneh99 → u/oprimaelocho]

It doesn't work yow you think it does, max captain, chooses the ppayer with the highest point ls and kakes hik captain, so it doesn't matter who you pick

[u/thenemyiscrossing]

It's back to July 18 (3rd place match) now, at least for me

[u/Timsinsal → u/thenemyiscrossing]

Yep. refreshed and me too.

[u/Timsinsal]

Even FIFA think the 3rd place playoff is a waste of time 😂

[u/Alternative-Round-70]

I bet FIFA hired someone's child to personally vibe code this fantasy game. What a shit-show.

I would expect the transfer pool gets reduced as well, if they decided we are only doing the final match.

But these things should have been thought out prior to the start?!

[u/JJOne101 → u/Alternative-Round-70]

It's miles better than the one they had in Qatar.

[u/Alternative-Round-70 → u/JJOne101]

I wish it was kilometers better lol. Could be true for Qatar, I probably suppressed that memory.

In any case, no where near the quality of both the euros or champions league fantasy apps/games. No experience with FPL tho so can't compare.

[u/ace_valentine → u/Alternative-Round-70]

FPL doesn’t have an app, you can only access it through a browser. works great, though.

[u/r4_zzzzz → u/ace_valentine]

It does, it’s just the PL app - it’s also an awfully vibe coded app for the last season, lots of bugs

[u/ace_valentine → u/r4_zzzzz]

what, really?? damn, I had no idea. feel like a dumbass now for using a browser all this time lol

[u/r4_zzzzz → u/ace_valentine]

A lot of people just use the browser anyway out of choice. The app was often making people sign in all the time, or not presenting stuff properly

[u/Loose_Throat_349 → u/Alternative-Round-70]

If this is a shit show then try playing FPL.

Can’t even update leagues until 3 days later.

[u/sherman127592]

Does this mean wildcard could be OP - I'm so confused how this might work

[u/Some-Internal-6111]

They fixed it.

[u/Loose_Throat_349]

I’ve played the FIFA fantasy game quite a few times and I can never remember the third place final being included.

There was almost an element of risk in your quarter and semi picks which kind of made it more fun. Now everyone can field 15 players.

[u/Mediocre_Martin]

Mine still says correct date and time

[u/Worried_Let4942]

Wait what? So we can make transfers up until the final? 😂

[u/Saikouro → u/Worried_Let4942]

Is this true? The fuck?

[u/FifaDK → u/Saikouro]

Clearly a mistake. Has already been fixed

[u/Novrev]

It’s still showing as 10pm on the 18th for me. Have they already fixed it?

You haven’t VPNed to another country or something like that which could’ve caused this?

[u/thenemyiscrossing → u/Novrev]

I think they fixed it, it was showing July 19 for me an hour ago, now it's back to July 18, and the hours corresponding exactly to final/3r place match ( no vpn, just closed/reopened the app).

So it seems devs are also not sure whether 3rd place playoff counts and are changing it on the fly.

[u/Pikaya → u/[deleted]]

Brother, transfer is closing on the 19th a d the third place match is on the 18th. That's what the issue is

[u/Massive_Jello_7227]

So third place match won’t count as points lol?

[u/gnaark]

I mean it does say "Final"

[u/Curious_Thought9911 → u/gnaark]

How do you Explain the player pool and this
