Building up a dream team in FIFA 15’s career mode isn’t easy, but what if there was a way to bring in players usually well beyond your budget? Luckily, there is thanks to a glitch that lets you get any player in the game for free.
DISCLAIMER: This is essentially a cheat and I’m not saying everyone should do this, but I’m letting you know in case it is something you guys want to try out.
I’m not talking about the kind of free transfers you can do when players’ contracts expire. No, I mean how you can get any player in the game without paying a penny in transfer fees for them, regardless of how much time is left on their contract.
This involves offering two swap deals for players you want, both with the same player from your team being swapped out. If both the AI teams accept, then you get two players in and only one player from your team goes out because he was part of both deals.
So the first thing you’re going to want to do is identify which players you want to bring in. Let’s just say that these two are transfer targets for my team.
You also need to work out which one of your players you are going to offer as part of the swap deal. This player has to be someone that both of the other teams are going to want to have, so there’s no point offering an average player to a team like Barcelona – they’re not going to want him. Just make sure he’s not too important a player for your team otherwise the deal may not be worth it for you.
Include this player in both offers. Make sure you send out the offers at the same time, as this makes things easier down the line. Once that’s done, advance until the other teams tell you they’ve accepted your offer.
As with any other transfer negotiation, you need to send off the contracts next.
Now we come to the important bit. Once both players have accepted their contract offers, it’s vital that you sign both players at the same time. Don’t accept one deal then advance a day and try to accept the second deal – it won’t work because the player you offered will already have joined the first team. You need to make sure you confirm both deals in one go so that the game thinks the player you offer is still available both times.
Now go and check your squad and you should have two new players waiting for you.
Search for the player you offered and you’ll see he’s joined one of the other teams.
This doesn’t just work with getting two players for free – you can do it with as many different players as you like. I’ve done it with three, four and five players and I’m sure it’ll work with more. However, I haven’t played a lengthy career after trying this so I don’t know if it causes any sort of problems down the line, so do it at your own risk.
However, it is a really good way to get free players if your budget is very restrictive or won’t stretch to get the players you want. Of course, it is cheating and I’m not saying everyone should do this, but I’m letting you know in case it is something you guys want to try out.
So this has been my guide to getting free players in FIFA 15, hopefully it’ll prove useful to you in your career modes. Make sure you let me know in the comments if you find out anything else about this FIFA 15 glitch.
And if there are any other guides or tutorials you want me to do before FIFA 16 comes out, let me know and I’ll look into doing them.
