Looking to get into Ultimate Team

[hawkeye2188]

So I have Fifa 10 and thinking about getting Ultimate Team. Just have some questions, and hopefully you guys can help answer them:
1.) Does it cost actual ms points after you purchase the download for 400?
2.) Is it hard to understand or grasp the concept?
3.) Is it hard to get started?
4.) Do you actually play games?
5.) Is it worth it? Addicting?

Or if someone could give a brief summary that would be great.

Brief summary: mix the addictiveness of the gameplay with the addictivenes of opening packs of cards and working th trade market to find your favorite players.

1) It does not cost any more to play, but you will have to play quite a few matches to build up the “coins” to buy packs. Frustration with this process may lead to spending MS points to buy packs

2) It is not hard at all. Earn coins and build a team.

3) There is a bit of frustration with how slow it is to build up coins to buy packs.

4) Yes. You can play offline or online single games, and offline and online tournaments including those with limited time frames that can result in big payouts (though you have to be good and have a top notch squad).

5) Can’t speak for everyone, but I have been absolutely addicted since it came out. For me it has been totally worth it.

I've been addicted too, i never paid any attention to it because i've always just played online games...but i checked out the trial for it and ended up buying it 10 mins later...in my opinion its worth every penny and needless to say thats all i play now lol
