*** The Official Fifa 16 Thread ***

On previous FIFA's i'm usually a Division 1/2 player.

FIFA 16 I've managed 6 points in my first division 10 season on ultimate team.

What the hell? I'm getting absolutly pumped!! Everyone seems to be able to just split my defence like a hot knife in butter, yet closes my attacks down instantly. They always seem to get to the ball quicker as well - any ideas what i'm doing wrong? Should you play differently when playing this FIFA?

Prefer my cheap brazil squad over my bpl squad. Much more fun to play with, plus they can all finesse with both feet.

Can you both share your teams please?

I'm running with an average BPL team and Liga BBVA team so far, I'm winning abut 50% of my games, so far, with the rest being draws and losses.
 
I've had a chance to play it over the weekend. A few annoyances:

1. Interceptions. They're crazy this year. Pass to my player, I see the opponent start running from 15 yards behind the receiver but the receiver is stuck in quick sand. He will not run to the ball giving the other team an easy interception.
2. Defenders are way to strong shoulder to shoulder.
3. Pace is still king.

Other than that I am enjoying it. It's just going to be a case of getting used to all the new bugs I guess.
 
Pace is no way near as important as last year though, you certainly can't just run around people like you used to be able to do.

The interceptions are annoying, I like that you can't just easily pass it first time wherever you want, but what you described is exactly what is annoying me; playing a pass to a player who just runs away while the defender comes forward to intercept. It's like the front men are always looking for runs, when in fact I want them to come to the ball by default as through balls and lobbed through balls are much harder this year.

EDIT: Looks like we're not the only ones thinking this: https://www.reddit.com/r/FIFA/comments/3mmg1o/is_it_just_me_or_do_players_never_come_for_the/
 
Not sure who to go for at CAM - was leaning towards Cazorla for his two footedness, but given the praise that is being heaped on Coutinho he might be worth a shot. My companion app is playing up at the moment, how much is he going for?
 
Yeah I'm using standard 4-3-3 (4)

Sanchez -- Costa -- Townsend

Son -- Lanzini -- Fletcher

Davies -- Distin -- Rojo -- Taylor

Forster

Son is pretty decent, Lanzini isn't bad either. Not really had much sucess with Sanchez, I can get into decent positions with him but find it really hard to score. Sanchez was really bought as an investment though, expecting him to be in TOTW this week which means he won't be in packs, should bump his price up somewhat.

Should have about 50k coins to play with when all my auctions have sold.
 
What's the cheapest way to buy points? Is there a Brazilian VPN method or something? I read about something like that a few days ago but can't find the post.

Also, draft mode is ridiculously intense. Won 3 games and then got beat 4-1 in the 4th :(

Wouldn't bother. Just have to google to see how many people have been getting banned from EA/xbox live.

Cheapest place to get points from now is CD Keys + the 5% facebook discount (which works every time with the same email)
 
Thinking of doing the above to boost my none existent team. Going to go for £40, works out about £35-£36 I think

Actually, I got beat in my first game something like that too. But then second attempt went a lot better.

Ahh, didn't realise people were being banned for that. I'll check out CD Keys, cheers!
 
Would it not be a good idea to buy points now rather than later? Since prices are really high it means you could sell average rated players for a lot more than they would usually go for. For example, I sold Eriksen for 25,000 coins yesterday.
