They won't be able to do so by promoting coin sellers, as EA have brought in a three step process to perma-ban anyone doing it.
Autobuyers apparently fuck up the search engine features, result in players being stuck in your trade pile etc. The consumable duplication glitch last year absolutely destroyed the market.

I was watching a 'big youtuber' stream live on twitch and people were donating alot of money - Must have been $500 in the hour that I watched. He then spent about $300 on packs.
UT makes EA alot of money and it's (mainly) because of youtubers using income from ads and donations from viewers to get more views to make more money.

Oversaturated the market with consumables so much that it made that branch of FUT untradeable. I would buy, for example, gold rare contracts for 200-250 then sell on for 450. But with thousands of them going for 200-250 because people had duplicated them, it would mean I couldn't sell them for the 450. The biggest ones affected were the chemistry cards (Hunter used to go for 4k, went as low as 1.5k-2k when the glitch was active). You could load your consumable pile with them (if you could afford to) but was unsure whether EA would punish those taking an advantage of the lower listed items (knowing the glitch was out there) as well as those who were doing the duplicating.
Also a risk to invest in low listed consumable with the aim of listing when market recovered, as the general feel at the time was that the market for FUT14 would never recover.

I meant as in EA just focusing on the cash cow instead of actually putting in effort to improve the game properly each year.

With PES still being miles behind, and no real worry of fans going elsewhere, they've probably still got a few more years of doing that.

It is happening again
Ok, twice now I've had people running forward straight from kickoff and hitting a long range shot over my keeper. Is this this seasons major exploit? The majority of players I've come across like to run forward straight from kickoff. Most of the time I'm able to stop them with the first man, but if they get past that I start to worry.
In general, keepers stand way to far off their line, making them vulnerable to looping shots.

It is the main exploit this year. Everyone tries it. There's a massive gap between defenders and midfield, at kick-off. If you get past the midfielders, you've got plenty of time to do the finesse shot glitch. The key thing is to put the cursor on one of the deeper MFs and follow the runner. However, with dribbling being easy this year, it's easy to beat the deeper MF.
Free kicks are ridiculously easy, too.
This game is bullshit.
In my Boavista career I last night conceded an equaliser to Benfica from the most absurd series of deflections you've ever seen. Somehow the ball ended up hitting their strikers legs, bouncing over my diving goalkeeper and spinning back to connect with the head of said striker as he fell over allowing the ball to bobble into the net. Really?
Just now, a 2-1 defeat to Gil Vicente - I'm 1-0 up when a shot from one of their strikers is blocked by two of my defenders yet somehow manages to continue through the both of them to the only other player in the box - another of their players. The frequency with which deflections conveniently fall to opposing players in your own area is laughable. They won the game with, surprise surprise, a bullshit penalty awarded for what I can only describe as "fuck all".

Wondering what camera settings you guys are using? I'm not keen on the default one because the far wings seems a bit distant so switched to one of the tv cameras and the view helps with build up play but makes the game seem a bit more arcade like. Not really put much time into it like I usually do and seem to be dominating every match I play online but can't put the games to bed. I'm really bad at raging at football games so I just thought the other day fuck this playing online.

I really need some help with shooting. Tried on assisted and semi assisted and it's so difficult to get it on target, similar to when using manual plus I can't really control my shots because the slightest tap skies it. Yet in the training game the shooting is normal where you can hit a meaty shot and still get it on target.

Yep. I put it down to the time rolling on (although slowly) when taking goal kicks, throw-ins and set-pieces.
It's inconsistent. I thought I got shooting down, but then the next match, the same method doesn't work. Also, has the long finesse shot glitch been fixed. I can't seem to do it anymore, which is a good thing.
There's so much wrong with the game it's a joke but, perversely, it's really fun to play. Fun can be frustrating, though. Speed is more overpowered than it's ever been. You don't need to pass the ball anymore. Just run straight, turn if required, then tap finesse shot to the front post to score. I was able to defend against it over the weekend, but it's unplayable sometimes. Also, you can't make a defensive shoulder-to-shoulder challenge in the box, for fear of giving a penalty.
Ultimately...

Fuck that shit, Ali. Just play career. I've been using these settings and am getting some realism and enjoyment out of it.
