I find it weird how, despite Iniesta being 100x the player Farfan is, Farfan is simply better on FIFA due to his pace. FIFA 14 needs to solve the pace issue, it's the only thing for me that ruins it.

I'm up to 95k coins, 20k to go before my beautiful Spanish loverboy comes to replace Holger Badstuber Euro Division Homepage LII - Page 13 3559488474

FUT is boring. All about pace.

Seasons I prefer.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:01

Gomez is quality on FUT. such a great shot!

Thats all you get in Division 1, 433 sweaty players, I really really hate it!

by sodhat Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:04

And yet you play it...

Fifa irritates me on Season mode so I can't imagine what UT would do to me. I went out of the cup to Villa last night off the back of a dodgy penalty and the fact they played like Olly with 10 men back and a big hoof up to Agbonlahor.

by GSC Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:06

I play as Forest who have no pace at all lol. Beat Ecuador 3-1 while he had Benitez and Valencia. Ordinary FIFA settings cope with pace better

by Guest Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:09

I'm getting to grips with the pace thing though. After a couple of yo-yo seasons in FUT, my current Division 1 season I'm 2-2-1 - 8 points from 5 games isn't that bad, and the one I lost to was doing overhead kicks, flicks and tricks, the lot. I thought it was a robot! But was only 2-0, with 10men for 70mins.

One thing I am good at is saving penalties. I've saved about 30ish in a row on FUT, it means I'm not scared to give penalties away when they're 3-on-1 with my keeper!

by sodhat Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:16

Is there a secret to penalties?

It used to be a glitch that the player taking would point his head the direction he was putting the ball.

by Guest Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:20

I've not noticed, mine is all down to judging the direction based on the style of player. Almost 100% of the time, pace abusers who abuse the wings go straight down the middle, and pace abusers who go centrally go to the keepers top right (top left as you look). People who play the game properly tend to go down the keepers bottom right (bottom left as you look). I've never seen anyone online go to the keeper's left. Which is where I go.

Seasons is boring. I find club team just so plan & meh! They are all taylored to play the same style as they plan in real life so you have no freedom on that.

FUT Div 1 is about pace, Div 2 or the Tournys is where its at.
the "Best of the Best" Tourny was the quality. Four matches to win the tourny & you win 7500k + average of 500 coins per match = estimated total of 9500k. & you dont get loads of pace abusers in certian tournys too.

All of my Serie A players values have dropped apart from.....*drum roll*.....KPB whos gone up by 10k #Badman

I used to play Azzy Mahmood on the xbox and smash him 4-0 with a weaker team, beat zidane the same and now these guys are on division 1. I'm not trying to be arrogant but I know I would walk the division like Rangers did 9 years in a row.

I always seem to go high to the keepers left, and I haven't missed one yet. Then again Mark Noble doesn't miss penalties.

I haven't saved one though, they tend to hit the bar or post if they miss.

"I'm not trying to be arrogant," he said, before trying to be arrogant.

If this doesn't prove to you that anti football works I dont know what will

by FIFA Diva Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:29

How about Azzy Mahmood claiming to have saved 30 penalties in a row?

Olly too scared to play me pretends that hus brothers are playing, Markys brother in law another scared guy who quickly switches to another game when he sees me online.

by FIFA Diva Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:30

I play llike a mix between the current Barcelona side and the arsenal unbeaten premier league team.

by Guest Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:33

Last time I played Viva on FIFA was about 3 years ago. I'm a much better player now.

Speaking of which, who actually won our FIFA tournament? Did Cherries ever pluck up the courage to play Marky?

Me too, except with a touch of 1970s Brazil, 1930s Uruguay, 1954 Hungary and Sam Allardyce's West Ham.

Cherries was blocked by EA for hacking after winning a game with bournemouth

Differeance is Viva you play with normal boring club teams. Ive seen your style of play, your would get ripped apart in FUT Div 1 by a sweaty pace abuser. Believe me you wouldnt stand a chance.
I even doubt you would beat me on FUT.
Your style of keep the ball, if you cant pass forward turn around & pass backwards or pass sideways just so you keep the ball will NOT work on FUT. I can pretty much guarantee that.

by GSC Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:38

Surely playing on clubs would be the better indicator of who's better rather than who can exploit FUT's crappy mechanics better

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:41

crappy mechanics are the same. Over the top through ball still works with clubs as does the guarantee near post power shot.

by GSC Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:43

On UT I would've been ripped to shreds against an Ecuador XI. As it was, Valencia had a marginal impact and Benitez never got into the game.

I like that I see a variety of styles on clubs, as opposed to seeing the same lineups, formations and general style I do on FUT.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:47

On UT I would've been ripped to shreds against an Ecuador XI.

I doubt you would of. Apart from Valencia & Benitez it would of been a poor team. Best tactics would be over the top to use Benitez pace (pace abuse) but with poor passers in mid, poor defence I reckon on FUT would beat an Ecuador XI.

by GSC Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:48

Forest have no pace in their team, and slow ass Danny Collins was playing CB.

by sodhat Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:50

West Ham have only one legitimately quick player on Fifa, and that's Jarvis at 91 (which is bizarre, he really isn't that fast)
I tend not to use pace too much anyway, most of my goals come from turning a defender and shooting

YoU think too much, I can beat you on all game modes on Fifa o find them all the same. Just because you can't play my style don't mean I can't.

Yes, and I have the hard nosed, hard working approach of Arrigo Sacchi's Milan.

I mean, we had Findley, whose only use was being fast but hes gone. I literally play Andy Reid out wide.

Gonzalo Reyes is probably our fastest player now lol

by sodhat Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:53

I keep getting adverts at the top for "Japan's answer to the Blue Man Group!"

Am I the only one disappointed they aren't called "The Yellow Man Group"?

by GSC Thu 14 Mar 2013, 10:55

Though in Majewski and Guedioura we have the best CM pairing in da lee. Cox is really good on FIFA too

Course you can. Ive openly challenged you to build a FUT team & come play but you still haven't.
Trust me Viva, you would walk Div 1 on FUT. Your style of play will get turned over by pace abusers.

I'm not scared to play you, I'd have to build a team before I get the players you have. You'd obviously beat me with my 57 rated players. Give me one of your teams play me and I'll give you them back after I beat you. I'll r*** you in your style of play that's how bad I'll bum you.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Thu 14 Mar 2013, 11:07

Typo correction: you wouldnt walk Div 1 on FUT

Aren't those 2 statements kinda contradictory?

No they are not GSC.
Statement one indicates how the "crappy mechanics" are the same in any game mode.
Statement two indicates how Viva's keep ball style would get turned over in FUT Div 1 by pace abusers.

There could be an issue with if playing with club teams you get pace abusers but as far as my knowledge goes you dont. My friend if like Viva & wont play FUT, he says people dont pace abuse with clubs & thats why he plays with clubs & not FUT anymore.

by **Afro** Thu 14 Mar 2013, 11:08

I think Viva is plenty of talk without anything to really back it up. it is all "I would", rather than "I do".

I'm thinking of changing his team name to "All talk and no lederhosen"

I beat you with Arsenal and you had Madrid I killed you and killed you the games before that. Don't try and make excuses thay its boring I best you with a massively inferior team. Andrea Wilshere Pirlo+ Scored haha. No shots on target ronaldo was locked off like Winson Green prison.

Ive already said id sell you player to make a team. Sell you players, give you a team, you need coins to make that happen. Cant just transfer a team for free you know.

Come on Viva, step your game up! Make you FUT team & play me. You talk a lot but you just dont bite #PokeTheBear

Errrm can anyone see where I made an excuse to losing a club match to Viva???

Viva, you talk way too much. Just make a FUT team and beat me if your so good.

by FIFA Diva Thu 14 Mar 2013, 11:13

Im off work for 3 weeks from tomorrow. I'll play any of you whenever you want. Afro I'm disappointed with that comment. My record speaks for itself. I bought a ps3 just to play Smartest G***** because he talked rubbish on how his the best welsh player dont question my commitment.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Thu 14 Mar 2013, 11:15

"All talk and no lederhosen"

Viva, your emotions are getting the better of you, I havent once made an excuse.
None of the xbox lads here have played you recently to wintesss your greatness.
You played me & Nadz not too long after the release of the game. You beat me & lost to Nadz.

Being the only PS3 players on here, me and Nadz play FUT online a fair bit & have had some good matches.
You on the otherhand just talk & talk. #AllTalkAndNoLederhosen

Get soem coins together & ill sell you a team (no idea why he cant buy it himself from the auction like everyone else Wink

)

He'll never do that. He's like Cherries that he likes to be able to brag. Actually playing you guys would jeopardise that Whistle

Difference between him and cherries though is that cherries actually had the balls in the end and beat everyone he played (although he was too scared to play Marky).

In fact, I think I am crowning Marky the official FIFA13 God in absence of those final games actually getting played.

by FIFA Diva Thu 14 Mar 2013, 11:16

Ok I'll make a team. What players do you have nick? I'll try and get similar rated players and how much do they cost and whats thr quickest way of making coins without spending real life money.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Thu 14 Mar 2013, 11:17

Im off work for 3 weeks from tomorrow.

BOOM. Once your ops out the way (Hope all goes well with that) play some FUT matches, play the offline league as its easy to win, build coins & start building your Ultimate Team.
Shouldn't take long then we can face off once you have your team sorted.

I don't think your record speaks for itself. You speak for yourself, your record seems a myth or a distant memory.

I have no idea who is the best, but at leasat these other guys actually rise the challenge rather than just talking about it

by FIFA Diva Thu 14 Mar 2013, 11:21

Ive played Nick, Azzy, Ronny, Andy, Smartest, Extra, Nadeem, Gio, Theo and about 10 other guys from 606 and lost just once to nadeem.

Nick I got a couple hundred coins sell me the players for that muxh and I'll give you them back after our matches

by FIFA Diva Thu 14 Mar 2013, 11:26

Thanks Zidane xx. I'll do that have loads of time to build up money. Azzy said he was saving up 90, 000 coins for Ramos how long did that take?

Afro Mahmood im call you Mancini from now on, you've never played the game at our level but have the nerve to have a go at guys like me who were playing Fifa when all the players looked the same. Everyone knows im a champion

Is it me or when playing high pressure games on Fifa armpits start to sweat a little? I play with no shirt on. Haha
