I'm probably doing myself an injustice by not learning timed shooting, I just don't want to be forced to play a certain way
I learnt it pretty quick, still score a shed load the standard way.

Actually just watched Nepenthez's video on it now, you only use it really at range or volleys/headers? Seemingly no point in using it in the box if I see what he's saying? Power up while the ball is away from the foot, 2nd tap on contact?
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.
The ones where you pass to Toty mbappe and mash shoot holding down finesse and they fly into top corner?
Literally pay to win.
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.
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.
everyone knows this already. if you have 50 hours of spare time a week then yes you can get a lot of coins easy.
try doing it with 1 hour a day and see how far you get.
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.
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.
@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.
is online single matches ranked in any way or completely random?
