*** The Official FIFA 13 Thread ***

I think EA might have more important things to worry about than some idle chat on an enthusiast forum?

I'm not worried about EA, I just don't want dealings for anything being done outside the MM. This kind of thing would be prohibited from there anyway so it shall not be discussed in here neither :)
 
I don't understand how some people can fathom having a chance when the back 4 (in the Stewy special 4-3-1-2) is:

Rafael - Naldo - Luiz - Felipe Luis

4 defenders with high attack. low/med defense, then 2 attacking CM's and Ramires!
 
People playing 4312 should be allowed to forfeit the game at the 15 minute mark and save everyone the time and energy.
 
It gets worse, just played someone who had a tad of a pacy team, Chiellini & Thiago Silva were the slowest outfield players, Silva was 6 pace+ slower than anyone except Chiellini!
 
Haha, nah I had it since Thursday, I just didn't want to 'announce' it whilst it was in testing stage :D

I've used some custom tactics which seem to be working better this time with it too..
 
I gave up with 4231 and went back to my trusted 4321 with Robben!

Just as I get back into this the weather picks up for riding so torn between the 2 now!

The biking wins in this weather mind:cool:
 
I've got BPL, Bundesliga and Serie A teams but have always fancied trying a Ligue 1 team in 4321 and have come up with the following:

Are there any obvious omissions/mistakes I've made other than Ibra & T Silva as I can't afford them?

Thanks...

You probably want a defensive midfielder in the middle CM slot.

Do custom tactics still not save in 13 Andy? Found it incredibly annoying having to re set work rates etc. every single game whereas in 12 they fixed it so they were saved and a lot more formations / variation became viable.

I was quite looking forward to trying Beckham in the centre to see how good his passing was but I'm assuming if I try someone like Mavuba or M'Vila in the centre, I'd be better off sticking with Pastore over Beckham at LCM due to the pace side of things??

Has anyone got any experience of IF Pastore at RF over Menez??

IF Matuidi for CM :).

Menez > IF Pastore.

Custom tactics save, custom formations don't, it sure which Andy means, but he is trying everything for when he faces Hilly I guess! :D

Forgive me too, went 5212 with a team for a quick budget blast last night :o
 
For some reason Lisandro Lopez was hopeless in my Ligue 1 side. A Marseille version of Remy would do all sorts of damage for you.

Yeah, I like Remy in my BPL side but for some reason I don't like playing players that have moved on!! Plus, Lopez's shooting is far higher!

IF Matuidi for CM :).

Menez > IF Pastore.

Cheers, I'll have a look at IF Matuidi!!
 
His "finishing is much higher" have you learnt nothing from Fifa? :)

+2 shot power
+7 long shots (Shouldn't be taking them with the ST in 4321)
+3 finishing
+10 curve

All of which, won't make a damn difference tbh :p
 
Thinking of having a go with this. Not got loads of coins so I can't make any expensive changes. Eventually I plan on having Nasri and Lavezzi in there too, and replacing Welliton with Lucas up front, but I'll need to get some more coins together first. Also, I've never had a chance to play with Welliton up front before, and have been run ragged by him enough times to want to try it!
