FIFA 14

if its the game how do I get some games were my players can control the ball, that they don't take ages to turn, that they don't just randomly fall over etc?

Why doesn't timbrad experience this is its in the game?

If you can answer that then I understand :)

Because it's FIFA, that's all there is to it. One game Real Madrid feel like a cargo freighter and the next Southampton feel like a harrier jet. It's not meant to make sense.

Real world football can be the same as well. Bottom teams beat the top teams all the time.

17 goals in 3 games in a tourny... final time.

Because as I've said the things you're describing are not caused by lag and you asked do people lag all the time...

It's the game engine. Whatever random FIFA occurrences you're experiencing they're not connected to your internet connection. Think of it like momentum... EA say it doesn't exist but it's pretty obvious it does to some degree. If you've got momentum things come off well and things go your way... if you're playing against a team with momentum then your players start to feel a bit heavy.
 
No its not that its players not actually controlling properly - players randomly falling over because the lag is causing the physics and ai to not work...

e.g. I dropped ball for gk - he couldn't control it fell over and knocked ball out for corner with no pressure around him

maybe u are right rusty - but I need to see other people experiencing the same for me to believe its not my internet..... and if its in the game its absolutely crap
 
All the code that causes that is ran locally on your PS4 spluff so it would do the same thing in a dev debug environment. The only thing that lag can really do is the massive delay on input... now that is annoying especially for myself who likes to indulge in a few skill moves :p.
 
Decided to sell Ibra again... he was good but I missed my Brazil team a little too much. He was up 100k from when I bought him so took the profit after tax and remade my teams.

Brazil 433 F9:

442 La Liga / BPL hybrid (very similar to a favourite from FIFA 13):

41212 Serie A (or a team of old men):

I did have De Rossi as CDM to make it even older but Vidal has been really good even with my worries over having 1 H/H CDM

433(2) cookie cutter Bundes squad:

Rusty I do not get this in single player mode at all - when online is playing well it nearly feels like single player mode........
 
Yeah because you're not playing humans. Get somebody round to play for long enough and all the rancidness you see online will eventually occur.

Basically spluff the FIFA code is run on your PS4 so your internet doesn't even factor into it. I dunno how to explain it any differently but there's no connection between your internet and players randomly falling over et al.
 
2 games today and both players just spammed crosses. sigh.

Wheres Kanifee when you want a good game of Fifa.

i've played kanifee few time, we have some really good game. don't know why they always end up in extra time :(

i'm thinking of changing the way i do my teams from using backup players to having fixed squads.

i see everyone using fixed squads, much better idea?

can i ask a few questions regarding this squad please, so i understand players better.

why you using Abdoulay Konko over Ignazio Abate?

why you using Kévin Constant over Stefan Radu?

also i always use de rossi and vidal as cdm (i just switch between them for fitness)

why use both of them together? not another cam? both seem very high on def?

cam wise i always use Hamsik, guarin or pogba. if i like to try something different i go for tevez

sorry for all the questions, just trying to understand squads better, you seem to know your stuff :)

A lot of player decisions just come down to your own play style and preference. Just because he uses Konko doesn't mean he will work better for you over Abate.

The only way to know for sure is to just test different players out.
 
It just fifa spullf I swear the game try's to screw you at times one match my team are great they are playing as unit the next match the defence are acting like monkey, e.g. I clear the ball the and the defender decides to clear it the opposition striker or even turn and smash it at him, they run into each other letting the striker run past them the list goes on! FIFA 14 online is just random i think EA made it like that on purpose.
 
Its nice to see so many jaded FUTers /wipes tear

Why is Bundes so generic when it comes to teams? Seems so easy to fall into a rut, but my god they seem to work well when I play against them

ps3ud0 :cool:
