I was playing last night and sent a through ball to Perisic, straight through on goal. Bailly for United made up about 10 yards in the space of about two seconds, and completely threw Perisic off the ball. Fuck this game is so stupid and shit. Still play it tho

I feel this game favours EPL in genaral, and Man Utd specially. I don't know how to explain it.

Of course it does. We all know it, no need of explaining it.

Fuck FIFA, what an infuriatingly shit game...

 

[Ronin]

My controller wireless receiver sorta broke down. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Haven't been able to play in a while now.

Accidentally while playing FIFA with my little brother...

I remember playing The demo and being mind blown that Man U had a better offense then Barca, Bayern and Real. In what world is that possible

Why in the blue fuck does this game delete players!!!

They released a Bernardeschi IF card that only costs 12K and is beastly.

Re: the reddit post; none of this really surprises me. I don't understand the point of it, because I would rather just play a standard system that is skill based. What I find annoying in all of this is that they make the game easier the more you struggle. That's not how this is supposed to work.

Many games have a handicapping mechanism, so if you're losing with two zip you're incentivised to try to turn things around and not just quit, as this would totally screw the whole experience of online playing. So the game makes it possible for you to get back to equal terms if the other team becomes lenient. I'm talking about Blizzard's HOTS for example, even if you're 2-3 levels behind all you need is a team-fight or two that go your way and you have a chance to bounce back and put up a fight. If I didn't know there was a chance to make this happen I'd just quit most of the time - why waste time, so the game would be pretty much done and dusted in the first minutes, after one of the teams gains some advantage.

I need a fast Serie A CAM. The only guy to fit this position is Mertens, but he's a LW only. There's an insane TOTW card for him and he's considered a CAM. I went to check his price and it's +300k. Fuck him.

How do people get such players? That's insane.

There are seriously no good Serie A CAM in the game. I'll give you some of my suggestions:

-Convert Eder from a ST -> CF -> CAM, as he has the pace and shooting necessary for the position
-Hamsik and Pjanic are both great in the role if you can afford them. I think Hamsik is usually around 17K
-Put Insigne, Callejon, or Perisic at CAM and take the chemistry hit
-If you're linking your CAM to a few Italians, you could get away with Giovinco at CAM

Palacio all day as a CAM. :work:

I do have Giovinco, Mertens, and Insigne. I need them for their pace since I use counter-attacking football. I also have a TOTW Salah with 95 pace, and with +5 training pace added (99 pace in total ). He's like a glitch now, 2-3 goals per game!

Hamsik, Pjanic, Callejon and Perisic are too slow for my tactics. I'm thinking about turning Eder into a CAM like you said. Too bad I can't do the same Berardi which would be insanely good!

Dude, Callejon has 90 pace and 89 acceleration. I'm pretty sure he's faster than a normal Insigne card.

Dude, Callejon has 90 pace and 89 acceleration. I'm pretty sure he's faster than a normal Insigne card.

Why did I always think that Callejon's pace is around 77?

I have to check out if he's a CAM, because Mertens is causing me team chemistry problems.

Well Callejon is a LW, so back to Mertens I guess.

Iv'e been complaining about this shit for years, especially on Career Mode which is all I play nowadays. Hard to have a fun game, as when I have a good first half, i'm left chasing the ball in the entire second half with the cpu pulling off some insane plays

It's fine when it's done right. But when the AI suddenly starts playing like Messi in the 89th minute, scoring a last minute goal, it's pretty annoying.

 

[M.Adnan]

I strongly believe that the same approach happens on online mode. The amount of lucky and 'glitched' goals that I concede in the last period of the game when I'm leading the scoreline is not normal. The opponent's players suddenly get through my defenders like ghosts or something.

I don't get how I dominate, magically waste 6-7 100% legit and well-played scoring chances, but the noob against me somehow pulls two lucky goals at the end of the game. This just happened to me in the last 3 or 4 consecutive games. I've lost all of them the same way!

 

[Howl]

Man I just went from dominating Chievo, to drawing in the last minute, where they took about 7 shots that all were in the top corner. Thank god Handanovic is a beast in this game, because whenever the handicap kicks in, he still saves most the attempts
