... :mad:

I pre-ordered mine a month ago through Amazon and it just says "not yet dispatched". Haven't even had the payment confirmation mail yet. By the way, are you clubbing? Me and Pol are on but nobody else is around yet.
 
Mine:

Overall - setup as ST usually is around 90 - though in Club its more like 93+...

Ball Skills 23/24
Defence 22/24
Mental 21/24
Passing 24/24
Physical 44/48
Shooting 48/48
Traits & Celebs 11/12
Accessories 10/12

Completed 94%

Currently have everything but Acrobatic Clearance (those accomps are bugged for me) - cant seem to get a chance to do a backheel goal or a diving header ever...
 
Sorry guys I just can't deal with the stress of all the complaining right now. Not only directed at you Poly, it's good that someone shows they care if we win or lose and it's nice to have people voicing their opinions as well but I can't really hack it tonight so I'll leave you three to do what you want. If you need anything I'll be on Steam.
 
Naah totally my bad - wasnt directed at anyones play but just frustrated that on a few games on the trot we had conceded 2/3 goals before half time making it always impossible to win...

Absolutely frustrating when it seems you cant do anything about it - in those situations I start whinging and its the main reason I try and go before I get annoyed. I game to relax and the constant torture that is FIFA sometimes just doesnt help or adds to it.

Its a good reason why I disappear off Club for afew days as Id rather play less and play well than the opposite and its until I get that hunger to play that I can be bothered...

TBH I dont kmow why you lot put up with it as all I end up doing is passing on the negativity...

Could we try going back to set posistions again, some people might not like it but I think we tended to do better with having people in a set posistion.

Sorry I didn't get on to late last night.


On a side note, RDR Dispatched!

Lucky you. :p

My order status as changed on Amazon to "dispatching soon" so I thought I'd give them a mail and ask them if they're dispatching today in time for tomorrow or if they're just dispatching tomorrow, not had a reply yet though.

As for Fifa, tbh I don't care where I play because we all end up pushing up and playing out of position all the time anyway, our form seems to let the CPU do all the defending (badly) while we all push up so I don't know if fixed positions makes a difference or not but I'm not against trying anything. The only thing that I'd want to see more of is human any, some days the cpu just has bad game after bad game and everyone ends up getting annoyed and rage quits which is not what games are about.

The only other thing I want to say is that we have to be realistic and realise that we cannot win every single game we play, and there will be occasions where we get absolutely caned by the opposition, that's just FIFA and unfortunately there are many teams that are way out of our league, when we come up against them we just have to handle it and not get annoyed, it's just a game and each game is a fresh start regardless of if we've just gotten beat 10-0 or if X person has given the ball away, it's a different game.

Just think people are getting a bit too wound up over a trivial thing.
 
Oh and good news for me. :)

Bet Monday for you though - soz I just dont trust Amazon for quick delivery unless Im paying extra for it, but thats what Supersaver is for I guess...

Regards Baps request I cant see it doing any harm, though I dont think we were playing better with fixed positions as I honesty think thats more the limited play Baps had with us recently more than anything - definitely not representative of our performances in general when I look at the recent results tab...

Every time we have had a solid set of games and jumped a lot of points is when its 3ppl with CPU any - that same consistency in performance just doesnt seem to happen when theres more of us so there is something in that - I put it down to CPU letting us down and allowing more goals in than we score, than its a problem of us scoring in the first place - kinda infers Kills idea might be a goer...

I think Kills last paragraph is aimed at me :p, totally see where you are coming from, but rarely do I see a team thats beaten us purely on merit. Most of the stuff we do is really good and sometimes amazing and if we were a bit more accurate on goal or played with a bit more forethought when passing I think what makes our 90% into 100%...

Im definitely of the opinion that quality is better than quantity and need to reduce my Club hours due to RL pressures and because I want to break up Club with the other (many) games I have. Thats why we had GRID, then Uncharted 2 and now RDR - deffo think my FIFA play will be better with such mini breaks...

Whilst we go on runs of wins with 3 ppl and CPU any, we also get defeats with the same system. Yesterday as an example.

TBH, I think we seem to come across more difficult opposition when we start early. We must get the drunks and stoners later on.

Yeah I can agree with that, I didn't want to say too much last night, rather have slept on it and then written something than just blurted something out in a rage. By the way, I paid for first class delivery so it's not on super saver, I think super saver would have been delivered on Monday so there's a chance I'll be getting it tomorrow but if not then Monday probably. :)

I don't want to single anybody out and I think that you win some and lose some, sure, there are opponents that are not as good as us play wise but they still beat us. We're the Arsenal of club, we play good stuff but we aren't clinical enough and we don't finish opponents off when we should. The same can be said of our opponents though, the other day we scored 5 past that Man Utd team and we were absolutely rubbish throughout, they must have been gutted. Anyway, as much as I'd like to play club every day I guess it's not a possibility for you guys, I really don't care what we do when we play as long as we have a laugh while doing it.

A few weeks ago I would've been the opposite, but we don't have to win every game, and yesterday we suffered 3 losses which were a bit spineless as we didn't play to our potential but I would've carried on going for like another hour or two, I think the losses and run of play bother some people more than others and recently I've just warmed more to the idea that it's only a game, there are times we will lose when we should win, and there are times when we win even though we should've lost.

By the way, as I was typing this I just had a dispatch mail with the estimated arrival date of 22nd of May, so that's Saturday, sent by Royal Fail.

To sum up, I don't think it's worth bothering to go through different forms, different positions or playing styles or any of that, we do well, and when we don't do well it's just our faults usually because of individual players not the teams efforts, but that's not something we can jump on one person and shout about because we all have bad days. May as well just take the rough with the smooth and remember that it's just a game.
 
So Gay (Im slightly tipsy :p)
