For the past week or so, players haven’t been able to earn gold coins or buy them with real money in EA Sports UFC. Normally, you’d use your gold coins to buy fighters from the store, but right now, it appears that EA Sports is still fixing something. Otherwise, you can earn gold coins by watching advertisement videos.
Aside from fights, you can also earn coins by collecting your fighters’ salaries. In order to make the most out of this, we suggest that you collect salaries once before you go to bed, and once again when you wake up in the morning. That way, you can be sure that each fighter’s salary bar would be full and that you’ll be collecting a lot of money in one go.
There are different types of challenges in EA Sports UFC. For example, you can earn 15,000 silver coins for winning ten straight fights via submission, or you can earn 3,000 or so silver coins for a simpler challenge, like using 50 special abilities over a series of fights, or winning 20 to 30 non-consecutive fights. This could be a great way to get a lot of coins quickly.
Some have suggested that you shouldn’t go for the Starter Pack, which costs 500 gold coins or 100,000 silver coins. On the contrary, we suggest that you do. The odds of getting a gold color-coded fighter (i.e. the ones with the best starting stats) when you buy a Training Pack or claim your rewards after main events/boss fights are quite slim. But if you pay for the Starter Pack, you’ll get three specific fighters, including Carlos Condit, who’s among the “gold” fighters. You’ll also get 50 skills which we suggest you use on your highest-rated fighter.
You’re free to replay any one of your previous fights as often as you want, and this is a great and easy way to earn more coins, especially if you only got one or two stars the first time around. However, take note, that if you win the replay fight with the same number of stars or less, you won’t get any health bonuses the second time around.
