I have an origin ID and i am able to successfully login to the web customer portal.

Launch the game on the PS4 and it tells me that I need an Origin account.

I put my Origin ID in and it tells me that the Origin ID already exists?

WTF, this is why i hate EA !

So i have to create a new profile even though i already have one just to play ?:mad:

In EA's defence, they did just sort me out. First a chat, then a call back. Very efficient.. My EA account was associated to my PSN before an email address change.. So its all fixed.. Both my XBOX Live and PSN ID's are now correctly associated to my Origin account and i'm now able to play online.
 
Not played fifa for a few weeks, come back and prices are a bit mental. 1.4-5m for Ibra? I expected his price to go down after his IF was out of packs! Made a fair bit on the IF's I had stored up, making this now:

If i had that amount of coinage I would be using IF Valbuena at CAM and Ibra at ST personally.

IF Matuidi instead of normal as well.

Luiz instead of Kompany then IF Alves in goal with Glove

That way you can use a much better RB than Zabaleta, Johnson is my personal choice with Anchor.

If I saw that team on the loading screen I would know Zabaleta is the weak spot as everywhere else is pretty much solid, so I would try and play 1-2's around Zabaleta or through balls in that area.

Everywhere else looks solid though, Matuidi the normal one is probably the second best CDM I have used after Gustavo. Wish I had the coin to try Toure.

Plus Cavani is absolutely terrible I have found every time I have came up against him he plays in midfield, I don't know why his High defense effects him so badly as Diego Costa for example is High/High too and he is never as deep. So that enough would want me to have Ibra at ST instead of him.

If your using Him to boost Suarez's chemistry which it looks like you are, then just get Jovetic instead of Suarez so;

Ibra - Jovetic

IF Valb -- IF Aguero

IF Matuidi - Toure

IF Digne - Silva - Luiz - Johnson

----- IF Alves
 
as Robert beat you, Sonny, I'd rather take his team advice than yours. I'm sure you understand...

I'd use Maxwell at LB, Ibra/Aguero at ST and Valbuana/Nasri as your CAMs, thats my team advice. Now go forth and win division 1.

May handicapping not be with you.

Let us know what you think of it - brutally honest!

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
I did have IF Matuidi, and whilst he was good I didn't think he was worth the 200k - his IF stat boosts are mainly offensive.

Yeah Zab's is the let down, but I have tried IF Alves and didn't like him, Sirigu and Cech are my keepers of choice. I think I'd be able to get max chem with Luiz/Cech, but I've never used Kompany and wanted to try him out.

Tried IF Maxwell too, he was OK - trying out IF Digne.

Good shout on IF Valbuena - will pick him and Nasri up and try out different combinations of the top 4.
 
The problem is there is just no choice of how to play the game if you want to compete with anyone good-ish. You have to lob through balls or just spam crosses because a passing or dribbling game just does not work.
 
I just got to Div 3, chipped through balls galore. People seem to have 4 at the back and have 2 CDM's anchored in front of them which makes attacking difficult.



Defence is just as important if not more important than attacking.

I found 4231 done well in lower divisions but terrible in division one, so I'm going to try out 4222.

As with any 4 at the back formations the full backs push forward so you need cdms to cover for them.

The only other option is to go 5 at the back which then leaves you being dominated in midfield. Three at the back is too exposed so yeah people use 4-2 formations
 
I was meant to be saving coins, but sold Neymar and all unused players & made this!

Plays well, Ibra & Cavani can swap anytime and it still feels right, tempted to grab IF Lavezzi, too!

Was happy with the CM/CB links to 10 everyone up, totally didn't mean to do it, then saw the links and was :) as I was worried I'd have to resort to using Lahm......ewww, thats the Fifa equivalent of taking advice from Sonny :(

I was talking about all 6 players being anchored back. Come up against a lot of team's on PC who do this.
