TOTY Ibra = lol

Had about 20 games with him tonight (thanks cHk4 for the lend!) and he is just broken. He is noticeably faster and stronger. Didn't notice too much different with his shooting other than his long shots. They're noticeably better too. Passing is difficult to notice any difference. Heading felt very similar.

Skilling was the only downside.... I found skilling a bit more difficult to pull off combos with TOTY Ibra although in truth I was playing very badly in some games so could have been that. Had the flu since Monday so this is the first time I've played since Sat night.

I was trying to play normally but obviously overdid it on occasion and lost the ball when I shouldn't have. The ease with which you can heel to heel flick and then just sprint and shoot is ludicrous.

I got a few goals captured doing that.

Gotta go to bed otherwise I'll never be up!
 
Yet again, I'm sick of the people who only go Real Madrid and only have L1 + Triangle buttons on their pad. Then they insist on running about for the maximum celebration time and watch all 3 replays of every single one of their ****** lobbed through goals as if they're the best goals ever scored on Fifa. How could they have made a game so broken? I honestly can't remember the last time I played a team that wasn't Real Madrid and didn't just spam lobbed balls every time they got the ball, do it 50 times during a game and my defender is going to trip over thin air at least twice.

Obviously FUT would be better instead of seasons, but I don't really have time and would rather just jump into a match, and it only fixes the Real Madrid problem, everyone still spams through balls. My answer is to play 5 at the back, Ultra defensive and counter attack, it makes you laugh how much they all completely run out of ideas once they realise the lobbed through balls don't work anymore but it's boring as hell.

Surely if you don't use a 5* team, you'll play a similarly rated team? Solution right there :)

I'm playing on the PC just now, there just isn't a topic in the PC section but it's exactly the same game (to the PS3 & X360 at least). On PC there's far less people playing, so the vast majority of the time, if I pick Rangers as a 1 1/2 star team, it searches for 5 minutes then either throws an error or I still get thrown against Real Madrid anyway, especially in Div 1 - 3. 3 - 4 star teams just get thrown against Real straight away with none of the faff of searching for ages.

PS4 can't come quickly enough now, at least I'll have a lot more people to play against and hopefully the new engine isn't as bad.

Still need to make that Silver Eredivise team, but as I really wanted to try Medel I made the team earlier, quick formation change & a few swaps and things are working well, Wanyama is ridiculous, gets fouled, doesn't go down, stepovers into people and sends them flying, he's a wall!

9 games, lost the first, on an 8 win streak with them now, which means first match tomorrow will be a huge loss!

So tempted to grab Barkley & Townsend's IFs!! :eek:

Doing well so far with the NIF anyways!
 
Had my best game online last night although I ended up losing 2-1 from a superb Iniesta through ball. Literally not one lob ball was played by myself or the opponents. Game ended with my on 89% pass accuracy and him on 86%. If only more players played like him.

Surely a good game would be a mix of lob and through balls - id say its almost unhead off to have a game of football without any lobs in it!
 
Why do people buy silver teams? Played against a guy yesterday who I beat 6-1 but all he dis was skill like a mofo and before he shot I always managed to intercept :D
 
Some people think silver teams give you a handicap advantage others just like to try something different to the regular gold teams everyone uses.

That silver Depay from Netherlands is meant to be a really good card.

Seems you had fun on him :D Looking forward to seeing the video. I've stuck the same player as you did only my team is DooM Gaming and it's 3 days.

You're more than welcome to borrow him again over the weekend mate.

As crazy as it sounds it was like that. He had 5 shots 5 on target. Thoroughly enjoyed the game and his team was built with all the passers (xavi, Iniesta and modric)

Is there any decent strikers in bbva except benzema and costa?

cHk4 used that team also and really liked it but I think he swapped out Vucinic for Balotelli.

Vucinic is the only player I would touch in that team if you want to change anyone, unless you can afford Vidal's IF.

Both full backs are medium attack = no more wingers abusing the lines against you.

Both CDM's are brick walls

Di Natale is just amazing use his pace to beat players and if you cut in with him instead of crossing he will get you goals from inside the box.

Guarin is all round beast and longshot machine (you can switch him to MCAM and Marchisio to LCAM if you take a lot of longshots from the middle of the park)

SIF Benatia is just so consistent he's the best CB i've used in the game and I have Ramos and IF Miranda in my other team. He just seems to do the right thing 100% of the time never seen him make a mistake.
