FIFA 14

Just drop me a message if you see me on FIFA14, I hit it in fits and spurts, normally when I want to try things...

Ben Arfa!

Only do that because you hate it, not really a skiller but when people cover the pass it leaves some room to trick or walk into the box. EA definitely seem to have made the tricking controls much more leniant, its like SF4 compared to SF2HDR - far easier to execute.

Youll be glad to know Im saving for Lavezzi and Reus as super sub LMs so I can do that from that side too ;)

ps3ud0 :cool:

Reus! never had chance to try him out I thinking of getting him and building my old Bundesliga team again, I bought Rooney today to try out 4411 and make a full English squad! (world cup here we come! ).
I ended up selling the slacker named Falcao....

Most sketchy goal keeper award goes to Federico Marchetti! why does he punch the ball into the ground when you send him out second time he has done this... also likes to rush out himself kinda want to keep him around for the comedy value

Ummm, I don't find the defending heading mechanics that broken any more. If it happened that much maybe you are timing the button press wrong? :(
 
Ive always held the idea that FIFAs code has some 'bias' to smaller players when it comes to crossing so that the ball in is lower than normal which makes it harder for defenders to deal with - its not so much they are getting outjumped just its ball to a shorter guy which is at their chest level and is harder to deal with. If the defending AI went to meet the cross where its higher those opportunities just would stop but it doesnt, it just deals with it as a normal flighted cross...

That goes for all air balls really - its not a problem, just a way the engine reconciles dealing with shorter players which isnt really as frequent in real life...

Selling everything up except my Serie A team and half the Bundes side and getting Zlatan back. I think I can just afford him if I manage to get one under buyout prices. Will be tight though!
 
Have they still not fixed the quitting/get a win bug on the xbox ?? I played 2 games last night both times my opponent scored a goal then quit the game straight after and I got awarded a 1-0 loss :mad:

The other two games I played both were lag switchers, every time I got the ball near their area all of a sudden it would just jutter like hell. However oddly enough it was fine every time they attacked.

I just want to go back to div 10 and not have to put up with this kind of crap in the higher divs. That or I need to buy me a PS4 and play there instead lol

Agreed, I still concede headers but people also forget the is a skill to coding in some instances, no matter how cheap of a tactic it may be deemed as.
 
TOTS out soon so i expect players to continue dropping.

Just had a game, 4 crosses to Manzukic = 4 goals. Its ok Miranda & Pepe recognised the danger everytime and decided not to jump :(
 
I swear Pirlo does my head in, some of passes he makes are just pure godly and manages to get those stupidly accurate pin point passes that no one else would ever make. But then he just seems unable to control the ball at all at times :confused:

Also I decided to have a go with Zola god damn he is good. Along with Vieri and Balo up top I swear such a strong attacking force. I deffo think Vieri has been my fav ST I have used in fifa this year he just seems bloody good all the time.

The more I use this team the more I like it tbh, used to have Di Natalie at CAM and Ibarbo ST. But Zola and Vieri seem to be much better imo :)

My team:

That's just the completely random Fifa engine. It makes having good passers / dribblers / finishers relatively pointless because some times even the worst passers, people with 50 vision and 50 long passes, will pull off those ludicrous, off-balance lofted balls with their wrong foot whilst Pirlo / Xavi etc. will **** up the simplest 10 yard through ball. It's beyond pathetic.
 
On second thoughts ps3ud0 I need to go to bed :p

The first goal to be scored between us on Fifa 14 will have to wait! Game gets a bit predictable when we try to avoid lob through balls and crosses, always end up cutting inside + it's easy to predict and defend.
