FIFA 19

1 win away from g3 with only 2 losses and now I go on a losing spree. Dominating games and conceding the crapiest goals ever. I don't care what anybody says. Fifa is 100% scripted.

I just had one of those games where I was 2-0, 3-1, 4-2 up and lost 5-4 in the final minute to a penalty. One of those games where you just sit there and think WTF just happened, the guy just scored every attack he had (5 shots) - it was the most comfortable game ever and lost!
 
Irrespective of the above, Kante, Pogba and Griezman replacing an Icon has improved my team massively. I lost van Dijk in favour of Varane but he's solid anyway. I'm 8-3, lost that fluke game above and penalties in another.
 
:D

This thread just got interesting haha.

I'm trying to change my dribbling style as people often predict where I'm going to move the ball so I was forcing myself last night just to keep running or turn a different way to where I normally go and it worked quite well. Just need to sort my defending out. I'm fed up with being tackled from behind yet it seems almost impossible for me to do, yet it could be because I often forget to use LT to shield the ball.

Yeah, I'm so predictable at times, I know he will know which way I will turn yet do it anyway as I have no patience.
 
how does de-ranking work? does it only kick in after a weekly refresh?

i'm trying to de-rank in order for it to be easier to complete objectives. i reckon it's more worthwhile to do an objective easily and get a beastly player than it is to slog it out and have an extra 10K in the bank.

i dropped around 400 points last night on purpose hoping it would de-rank me. but it never did.

What objectives? How anyone can be arsed doing this stuff is beyond me.. I'd rather player difficult folk and get better!
 
I watch some guy who live streams on YouTube, called Birdie94 or something, he has Courtois, Ramos, Varane, Kante, Pogba, IF Mahrez, Neymar, Ronaldo...never put any money into the game, just plays a lot of rivals and WL. An example you don't need to put money into the game to get a good team.

I've put £12.99 into it and have similar players although I don't dedicate enough time to WL to really reap benefits of coins each week.
 
the gap has widened a lot between cheap and expensive players. ea should make the game fairer but that would mean they make less money so they never will.

like the thread i linked to. i beat people on here who were using TOTY players, ronaldo, TOTS players using a squad which cost me 25K because I had sold my teams and coins for £150 on ebay (1.5 millions coins because i packed messi that year in a free pack). but my 25K team was still quite good. not as good as my 500K teams and i had a million in the bank doing nothing but it was still competitive. i didn't just beat them either i absolutely smashed them. i had like 90 goals scored and 6 goals conceded in the league.

there is no way to compete now without spending money or having fifa as a a full time job. this is what not just me but a lot of people don't like.

it will never go back to the way it was because of money. i know and fully understand that. it's a shame as they ruined a game which a lot of people used to enjoy now it's only for kids basically or adults willing to spend their whole social life and wage packet on it.

I don't agree, I have beaten loads of super star teams, you think people who can achieve 25 wins on the WL couldn't beat a normal player with a super start team with a load of NIF players? A good player doesn't stop just because they're limited on players, this FIFA the skill gap has reduced loads considering finesse shots are just as good on NIF players as they are superstar ones.
 
the fact i beat normal players with super star teams would say i agree. however come up against a decent player abusing mechanics using super star teams there is nothing you can do if you too are a decent player but don't have the coins to compete.

the better players do stuff for you automatically and do stuff better more consistently. why is everyone using Ibra now? because his card is OP and cheap for what it is. however i'd like to see someone with a team worth 25K beat a team worth 2 million against a half decent player. i've done it in the past. i don't think i could do it in this fifa.

Play TimBrad, you can.
 
@Andybtsn I'd disagree about timed finesse being just as effective with normal gold cards, players like Eusebio bury way more of them and from silly distances and he doesn't even have the trait.

Of course, but the difference isn't as big as it's being suggested. I name dropped it before but I came across one of the Hashtag idiots and 82 Rodrigo had an unreal amount of finesse shots going in.
