Just played WC2010 with Rep Ireland. I used the same method as I do all the time. Won all my games by 3 goals or more and won the World cup!!

I had already won the first 2 games qualifying, so just need to win the other 5.. I did it easily.

Beat

Brazil
Spain
France
Italy
England Final.. 3-0 disconnect lamer!!!

I am not a great player, far from it. I very rarely use skill moves and I have yet to master a few of them. The ones I do use are the ones I find are effective. I use my own formation (yeah some consider lame but it works for me). The tactics in the game are complete rubbish and do not help at all, so are default for all teams.

I have my Defence: high defence low attack
I have my Attack: high attack low defence
I have a defensive midfielders and attacking midfielders

But I will repeat to my fellow OcUKer players, DO NOT SPRINT WITH THE BALL. There are times when its necessary to beat the last man, but if you just take a touch allow space you will find your game improves tenfold.

Again, take a touch allow your teammates to run into space, try to have more than one ball to play at anytime by finding space when passing. Use the wings, master finesse shooting, and you pretty much have everything you need to win games more consistently.

Or you can keep listening to this crap about low morale and throw your controller at the wall because the guys you play against know these little tricks and will lower YOUR morale, not that of your players!!!

first of all nobody plays the world cup mode only noobs are still playing that
people play in online modes 1v1 ranked it's a league

I have dropped down to division 5 now after many games that I have dominated and lost because of the cpu running defenders out etc

You're preaching to the converted Skippi, it's these 'super players' who are posting how it's all in our heads and we are looking for other things to blame because we lose.

Hey, I hope you are not referring to me!!

I am far from a super player...

Ok, lets say you are right and there is a script in the game that allows "catchup" or lowers the "morale" of a certain player/s during a match. I'm pretty sure that its not stopping you winning games.

I saw a post by C64 whereby he said that he had loads of the possession, lots of shots on goal and should have blitzed his opponent as he was all over him. He said he lost because the game somehow favoured his opponent. Im sorry that is utter tripe.

I came from PES and was absolute rubbish at this game for one thing and one thing only... scoring..
I could have 20 shots on goal, have loads of possession and completely dominate my opponent, but I was just not winning games because I failed to finish my chances. Once I addressed this part of my game (which is still ongoing) I managed to start putting winning streaks together. I climbed up the divisions (WC2010) to league 1 with ease.

I repeat, I am an average player at best. When we start the OcUK league I am probably mid table... so Im not saying I know better, I just know what works or me and what has helped me improve. If you are right and there are one or two players that are not playing up to there standard due to morale, following the steps of my earlier post will help you overcome them and still put long winning streaks together...

Currently on a winning streak of around 10 I think.. although at the moment I am locked in a crash battle with some guy. I was winning 5-3, during the second half of extra time he made substitutions and the game has crashed..If I'm losing in those circumstances I disconnect, but this lame **** wants to test my resolve...and hang it out!!... I needed a break anyway! :cool:

Anyhoo. back on the subject of Fifa 11.. this game is going to be beautiful. I cannot wait for its release. Going to start a league in work as everyone bought playstations for FIFA 10. If we can get a league going here aswell, that would be great... even monthly competitions are good, Im sure together we could get this organised.
 
I got up to league two on the WC game and I'm in league five now out of frustration :p

I'm level 24 on FIFA10, dont know if thats any good but its sort of high I'd guess?
 
I don't know what it is that makes these things happen online, some call ir morale some call it scripting, I don't know what it is, but I played enough Fifa 10 to know something dodgy happens in some online games. If you have neve rhad such problems you should count yourself lucky.

I've read countless posts on the Fifa forum about people saying how you are pretty much guaranteed to see a goal in the 45th/90th minute. Surely so many people cannot be so wrong.

Pretty ignorant thing to say.

I play it daily, theres always loads of people to play, and its a better game than Fifa 10, so ill play it until 11 comes out.

It's not tripe at all thank you, an example is the cpu suddenly parting your entire defense like the red sea that is 100% cpu decided and aiding for the opponent so don't tell me I am wrong.

You just don't get what is happening as you don't play it often enough probably.

It also can make your entire team feel like a 0 star or half star team ie all players are slow and simple unchallenged passes go astray so it is you who is speaking utter tripe.
You must be one of those spain germany england only players or something.

I just went back to online world cup mode and breezed through so easy and won the world cup it's like playing against division 10 players in 1v1 ranked lol.

If you kick off a match have a shot at the goal immediately if it goes nowhere near the goal it means you have low morale I do this now and just quit before the 5 min mark if I have low morale.

Does it not affect Spain, England or Germany then?
 
It would appear not certainly not to the same extent and that is why all you ever see is spain players mostly.

I have just played 4 games using croatia first 3 i won the team felt normal 4th game all my players felt like they were 1 star very slow to turn on the ball and not making off the ball runs and simple unblocked unchallenged passes not even going where I aim them (nout to do with what the other player is doing) so it's 100% definitely there hidden away.

Anyway I am done talking about it with deluded people that have no idea what they are talking about who probably don't even play ranked or even own the world cup game.

There's going to be two - one for those that believe in hidden morale and one for those that don't.

For the "Hidden Morale" believers we'll just draw their league standings out of a hat. :D

We need an extra league for 'Clueless idiots who will get battered' too then. ;)

Yes, I purchased it on release day and have played it plenty.

The 'morale issue' or whatever you want to call it is far more potent on the World Cup game than FIFA 10.

Don't say things like that. :(

I fear Fifa 11 is going to be worse than Fifa 10 from what has been said.

I'm confident it wont be.

Heads in the sand and all that :D

I'm looking forward to it either way, I'd still buy it if it was the exact world cup game engine just rebadged with club stuff :p

I had a whole different response and then I read the part in bold.. wow, you have sank to a whole new level of lameness!!!.. that is pretty dire. Someone waits for a game, they get you, they get there team set out and wait for the game to then load, you fire the ball off, then disconnect because you are under this completely neurotic delusion that, this; is how you know who the game favours...

My god.. I would love to put this to the test... I would love you to do that to me in a game and get it on target, I guarantee you would still lose heavily..

Why:

Because its clear you have absolutely no idea how to defend. You sit high up the pitch and your opponent just waits for runners to play throughballs, your defense (ofcoarse the fault of the CPU) then all run out and leave your opponent with a 1 on 1... you lose again and blame the "computer" while you dance around tears streaming with frustration screaming "it cheats... it cheats"!!!! because alas once again you have had your pants pulled down..

Shame on you mate...
