CR3 12,685 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Hating how much you play PSG in this because of them getting messi, the worst type of wee virgins about. They should cap you using the same team about 3 times then a wait until you can pick them again. JackAlex93 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Monk 3,207 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 I’m getting more joy on this playing 4-3-1-2, pretty much always played 4-3-3 on FIFA but may just be me but can’t play well at all using it on this one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opponent overhit a through ball so pulled the keeper out to cover it. Because it was on the edge of the box I think the game mechanics hit a rules blackhole and got confused between picking it up and kicking it. Instead the keeper just kind of randomly hopped over it and fell over and it went into the net CR3 and RFC55 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabc10000 5,061 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Does anyone have any advice at all with this game. I'm genuinely so bad at the game it's no even funny anymore. Played maybe 50 online games since last Thursday and only managed 1 win towards the rivals rewards 😢😢 Really cannot defend for shit in the game and scoring goals forget it. My top score is aubameyang who has abiut 30 goals on about 150 odd games Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McEwan's Lager 30,524 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 FIFA ending their relationship with EA Sports. Huge news but could turn quite funny. Konami are a basket case so they are out but not sure there are many other credible companies out there that could develop a FIFA game to a good standard.

Laudrupsleftfoot 10,874 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Liking that there's a bit more variety in the teams played when playing seasons. Playing as Rangers generally got Bayer Leverkusen, PSV, Sassuolo, Al Hilal, fenians, AC Milan, Arsenal and maybe a couple of others over and over on last years. Played 15 or 16 games so far and not had the same team once. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really as EA Sports will still have all the same teams and licences they have now. They have contracts with the leagues so it doesn't make any difference really other than the name of the game. There is also 2 new football titles due out at the end of the year, one with the unreal engine that we have seen some screenshots of so all is not lost. Forget Konami, they are a mobile platform only these days for football. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My top score is aubameyang who has abiut 30 goals on about 150 odd games Try and play a passing game, R1 passes to your striker are good for playing through the opponent midfield. Get yourself a rapid defence (all my defenders are 88 acceleration minimum). Look for strikers that are fast with good agility/ball control/dribbling, even low rated players like Malen (80) are way more useful than players like Haaland (88). Cutbacks are super easy this year so try and play for those more. Also keep an eye on your wingers when your countering, I find my winger on the opposite side of the pitch making really good runs all the time, R1/L1 through balls with a good bit of pace on them can have you in behind the defence for an easy tap in. rabc10000 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shock that the companies have split apart though since fifa were looking for £250 million to renew seemingly it is understandable an dno one will pay that hell I don't think any one else could. If we go down this road I hope we get the Rangers game back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
