*** The Official FIFA 17 Thread ***

For anyone that is interested, we just reviewed the Journey for FUTStock. Please be aware before watching that this is VERY SPOILER heavy, so only watch if you don't mind knowing what happens or seeing the cut-scenes etc

 
I've won about 9 games in the last 11, with a draw and a loss in there. No idea what is going on but I'm waiting for the inevitable downfall. Needless to say I'm prefering this to 16, which was my least favourite FIFA for the last 5 or so years.

Yeah, they just stand off and have everybody back. Using a silver team so tough to crack them open.

Got about 120k to spend on player but prices are nuts at the moment.
 
Played an embarrassingly large amount today, mainly with 4231 but tried 41212 and just didn't work for me.

Batshuayi is really really good, Rashford is so one-dimensional and frustrating to play with. Matic is like Busquets, awesomely strong and great tackling.

Probably gonna sell up and see what I can get for around 180k + Silva.
 
Defending at times is a shambles, been really enjoying the game just remained in div 6 (first time i havent won a title) and its now getting ridiculously sweaty and highlights the games flaws once again. I also for some reason like previous FIFA's only lose to worse rated teams, all top teams i beat with ease very annoying. Just sold my french team for now.. thinking of trying 3-5-2 CDM's and CAMs are very favoured in this game anyone tried the formation?
 
Winning streak came to a slight halt as I climbed the leagues. In Division 6 seems to be some very good players who must be making their way up the divisions.

Got into final of FUT knockout thing but got beat:( Might try again tomorrow but the level of player seems to ramp up quickly from the semi onwards:)

I've just sold up my ligue 1 side made a huge profit on Silva.

Renato Sanches is he getting games at Bayern I'm thinking about getting his one2watch card as when I played against him was stupidly good. Him and Vidal could be interesting!

I won 13 on the bounce and now ive gone 6 loses on the bounce in Div 6 nothing is working at all for me and im coming up against teams with vardy and rashford up top with hunter chem on boosting there speed and playing ultra defensive then just booting the ball up to them then running up and passing across goal.

Also the smallest and weakest of players seem to be able to out jump and out muscle IF Glik who has 90 heading 85 jumping and 99 strength with the backbone chem style on.

Really tempted to just sell up and just start playing pro clubs.

Lukaku easily best player ive used and ive got Sturridge/Vardy/Lacazette etc.. seems relatively quick, strong and excellent shot/head.
 
I honestly can't work out this game, everyone I play seems to have such ease knocking the ball about, players are so much faster, I seem to play with a massive lag.

Further research and I feel I'm suffering from the below...who posted in here about lag? 16 was fine

6. Button delay and lag make the online sessions unplayable. Actions such as passing, shooting, clearing headers are behind, and the outcome is sometimes contrary to the expected result because the players do the opposite of what gamers are doing. EA is currently investigating this problem, and the company has suggested a few quick workarounds to alleviate this bug: clear the alternate MAC adress, persistent storage and powercycle Xbox One, and change the privacy settings.

Fixed it. So annoyed I've played so many games and lost so many. Feels way better now.

Hi guys. For absolutely ages I've been having connection issues with my xbox one, causing horrendous in game lag which completely ruins any game, but after months and months I have FINALLY found a fix and it's absolutely nothing to do with your internet..!

For those of you who recievethe speeds, but suffer from lag, follow these steps on you xbox one console. This has made my connection as smooth as a baby's bum, and I hope to god it helps with yours too!

Sign in to your xbox live account on your xbox one,

go to settings >> all settings>> Disc & Blu-ray >> Persistent storage >> Clear persistent storage. Do this 3 times.

THEN:

Back out to the settings page >> network >>network settings>> Test multiplayer connection..
When it comes up with "EVERYTHING IS GOOD" Don't exit the screen, but hold down the off button for 8-10 seconds so your xbox completely shuts down. take out all wires from the back of your xbox and put a 2 minute timer on. After two minutes, put all wires back in, turn your xbox on, and the problem will be solved!


Please try this guys if you are suffering from in game lag on the xbox one console because I can't stress enough how many different things i tried before figuring this out. Don't miss any of the steps out and please let me know if this helps you! I hope it does as much as it's helped me! Cheers guys, Nathan.

That looks like utter rubbish :p Xbox Witch Doctor?

Need a cheap BPL GK and ST. Any recommendations with 9k to spend in total?

I have only played a few really good keepers (Handanovic, De Gea) but they don't seem to be worth the money so I'd just get a super cheapo GK and then spend all your funds on a ST like maybe Welbeck or Origi?
