The Web App of FIFA 16

I did think you meant 10k Fifa 16 coins a day, but regardless, having to buy a $350 console per 5 accounts when they have thousands and thousands of accounts presumably, would still be a big hit to the point where the rate of return and business model might not make sense for most people.

We're no longer talking about hobbyists here. This is being done on an industrial scale and the cost of replacing consoles is minimal compared to the returns involved. Even with JP's extremely conservative estimate of returns, that's $3.65m per annum. They could get 1000 consoles for less than a twelfth of that, even at basic retail price (that they wouldn't actually pay).

Well first, I'm not sure $10,000 a day is necessarily an "extremely conservative" estimate. JP would admit himself that he does not know everything that is going on (his first post in this thread about botters not having access to their accounts was directly contradicted by responses to him in a certain *other* thread...). Second, if the money is a factor of coins per account, then requiring one console per five accounts could make a huge difference. Like you said, this is being done on an industrial scale and if they are making hundreds of thousands of accounts, the console account limit could cut down a lot.

Also, if glitching is being done through console emulation and some script kiddies have to switch from remotely buying some VPS computing power to running a warehouse of xbox consoles, that is also going to make a huge difference.

Of course I don't know everything that goes on in the FUT community. But I'm pretty sure I know more than most.

The account limitation idea is an interesting one. You can't get away with just 5 per console simply because that would get Microsoft and Sony in trouble with the Mormons. 15-20 would be more realistic and throw some serious sand into the wheels of a lot of glitchers and botters.
