This means coins, club items, and transfer market items will no longer be shared between Xbox 360 and Xbox One, and between PS3 and PS4. To further prevent coin farmers and coin buyers from negatively impacting the FUT economy, we are splitting Transfer Market economies by console generation. The wider ranges will enhance the trading experience on the Transfer Market. The chart below illustrates the average price of a sample top-tier player in FUT 15 and the change in Price Range parameters from FUT 15 to FUT 16 at launch. The less coin farming and buying we see within FUT 16, the wider the Price Ranges will stay.
Our aim this year is to keep Price Ranges as wide as possible throughout the season to offer a fair environment for trading and to protect the market against coin buying. This will make it easier to buy and sell players on the Transfer Market. In FUT 16, Price Ranges will start much wider. The health of the Transfer Market, which determines its availability on the apps will be consistently assessed throughout the season. This is a new security measure we’ve implemented for FUT 16 to make sure all players are human, as opposed to bots that harm the Transfer Market.
Within a few days of playing on console, new players will pass verification and be granted access to the Transfer market via the web app. New players to FIFA Ultimate Team must play on console or PC before accessing the Transfer Market via the web app.
* Please note you’ll need to start on the web app before you can use the mobile app. Returning and verified FUT 15 players will be able to get access to the web app and begin building their Ultimate Team club by opening free returning user packs and by trading early via the Transfer Market. To kick off the new Ultimate Team season, the Transfer Market will once again be available within both the Web and Mobile Companion apps beginning September 17. Transfer Market Available in Web & Companion Apps
