Those aren't custom, they are automatically assigned to the dpad. Contain you hold R1+Circle I think or X or RB+B or A on xbox.

Career mode won't help you much when you get into FUT! It plays completely differently mainly. You'd be better off just getting stuck into online seasons and then FUT if you wanted an introduction.

Really? Hmm, will have to take a look!

If you start UT I'd be willing to give you a small amount of coins to get you started.

A decent non rare side can be had for under 10k.

Playstation only though.

I wish people did R1 + X while on high pressure / team pressing

. Most of the time people just use X (contain) and it leaves no space on the pitch. R1 + X is press and contain so uses two defenders. It's suicidal if done at the wrong time. Leaves an easy through ball in behind.

That would be fantastic, thank you very much!

Can I add you?

Leave your PSN ID here or trust me it and I'll add you.

Yep it's easy to play against most of the time but when used with certain custom tactics it can be very difficult to pass the ball around effectively.

Going to make my video of TOTY Ibra tonight / this weekend.

I'd love to do more content and really get into it but it's so time consuming that I don't really want to waste my gaming time. Have a Mrs to service as well as a house

.

Now that cHk4 has sold up my supply of uber cards has dried up

LOL

you should stream yourself playing, not interested in the game just you raging constantly so make sure camera is pointed directly at you

Are the fifa servers hosted on dedicated servers? When I play online I notice there's some micro pausing from time to time.

Rusty0611 · 31 Jan 2014 at 12:08

Pro Clubs is but 1v1 is peer to peer AFAIK.

I think I'm starting to get slightly better at this. Of a night I'll play about 4 games, normally draw 2, win 1, lose 1 (on average). It used to be lose 3, win/draw 1 so it's a start. Haha.

Definitely need some faster left/right backs, if I make a mistake the wingers are away.

Anyway, a couple of questions.

How do you guys deal with fitness? At the moment I'm waiting till a number of players get to about 70 then getting squad training, it will normally be my strikers, CAM and wingers that need it, the rest of the squad will be fine. Is this the most efficient way of doing it or is there a better way?

What does the health stat do? Is it just how likely an injury will occur?

Ive found rotating is the only real way to progress and build coins at the same time, don't be afraid to play players out of position form time to time.

Raging? At times i wonder how far i could launch the xbox down the street....

This game is just not good for me but it is so addictive.

few things that get on my ****:

People constantly crossing and there little midget ALWAYS beats my giants at heading the ball.

Their players could run off to local sports shop, buy a bat and **** one of my players in the face with it and the ref will give them a freekick for it.

Mount of times the offside has been wrong

Handballs are atrocious

Mount of times my players forget what a football is and just stand and stare at it like ****ing morons.

I could go on all day....

CliffyG · 31 Jan 2014 at 12:16

I have my BPL and Bundes teams in the same squad. Once the active team has players who are around 85-90% on I swap in the other team and then continue doing that. Never need fitness cards.

Is that the reason why you get stutters sometimes then?

Suarez7 · 31 Jan 2014 at 12:21

My current squad, don't know who to upgrade next, I'd get IF Reus if he wasn't a stupid price, 1.2 mil can get me Ribery with 300k change leftover.

bash247 · 31 Jan 2014 at 12:27

Surely Division 1 can't be this easy!

TOTY GK or TOTY Silva with Gustavo and Mariano around him?

Would mean getting rid of Toure though which spares up another 100K to get Neymar at CF and Lucas at RW?#

Does effectively make it a Brazil team though with some Bundes.
