Is it happening to anyone else in Seasons where you pick your bench players and then when you go in to the match it's not the ones you picked but a random bunch?

Yep, something EA need to sort out fairly quick. Surprised they haven't so far.

My one real gripe about the game is the commentary. Martin \tylers insistance of blattering out World Cup stats on every player is tiresome. Even bangs on about Falcao and Reus missing the WC

I have the commentary turned down. It usually takes 2 weeks before I do it but the commentary is mega annoying this year.

It's worse when he says it twice in the same game about the same player! :P

rottie 11 · 01-10-2014 9:00am

Most of the comentary is the same as 14

No they dont mention slip, but they keep mentioning how he had a disappointing 2014, and a disappointing world cup.

Fortunately not, but what I have noticed is that the menus are very laggy, at first they were fine but now I'm 3 seasons in and sometimes it takes a few minutes to skip one day on the calendar etc. Anyone experienced that?

markc1184 · 01-10-2014 12:30pm

Is it not possible to collect xp/fcc points in offline career mode? Mine only seems to update when I play the highlight games.

Cypher_sounds · 01-10-2014 12:38pm

Only a small thing and probably obvious but how can i see the name/artist of the songs being played?

Go to customise menu and then go ea tracks

markcahill1985 · 01-10-2014 1:06pm

prob a stupid question but can you not play a unranked match versus a randomer online anymore or is it only against friends or in seasons mode?

I have this problem! Very frustrating

The cheesy KO lofted through ball has officially been replaced by the cheesy KO run.

Why do they constantly overlook such obvious flaws?.
Your teams set up from tip off is just a mess.
Back 4 jammed together and about 4 players on the half way line leaving one CM to beat to get at the back 4.

Player placement at certain times can be frustrating, corners as well and free kicks in the opposition half when everyone goes forward.

So many basic fundamentals are overlooked each year.
Couldn't be that hard to place players in better positions from set balls or KOs or at least let customisation take place.

This annoys me too, I play as Everton in h2h seasons and when I'm defending a corner Distin, centre half, sits loitering at the edge of the D the silly sod, get back in the six yard box ya muppet!

Yeah. I have John O'Shea and he is often at the wrong edge of the box.

That Kick off run really is shocking. The speed of FUT makes it worse.

Was playing manager mode. Picked Bristol City. Played 4 matches, 3 wins and a draw (one of the wins was a cup match) and got sacked because it said I had a bad temper!
It said that the board don't want someone with that attitude around the club.

Luckily it was only a few matches in.

I could be way off the mark but if you're on XBox One and have the Kinect plugged in, they pick up on your getting mad / swearing etc

That could be why you got sacked :pac:

Walter.White · 01-10-2014 11:15pm

I have a nice cheap Bundesliga team but there aren't many cheap strikers that are good so i threw on Welbeck up front, his a beast. My chemistry is still 100.

My midfield has Thiago Sahin and Kagawa all cheap enough. Santana is a beast of a centre back and there are loads of other good cheap defenders like Dante and Subotic aswell.
Kagawa as cam is unreal. I seem to be winning most games. Premiership players are so expensive. Son from leverkusen on the wing is unreal

AidySevenfold · 02-10-2014 2:41am

One thing i've noticed alot more this year is the CPU gives away more fouls and gets carded alot more. Something which was lacking last year. Never ever got penalties and even frees were a rarity.

Loving the new GK motions too, some very realistic spills etc leading to scrappy goals which is a bit more realistic.

I dont' agree with pace being the be all and end all, strength is a fairly big one this year i find too.

I'm thoroughly enjoying it this year.

forzacalcio · 02-10-2014 9:28am

Loving pro career mode at the minute, signed up for Real Mallorca broke my ankle in second game and I have 6 goals in 7 games and 1 goal for Ireland now. Interest already from Southampton, Sporting Lisbon and Sevilla

Saint Sonner · 02-10-2014 12:17pm

I am rubbish at defending - any tips on how to get better?

If I score a goal I'd say theres a more than 50/50 possibility i'll concede straight from the kick off!

Dont use run button when defending is what Ive learnt anyway
If that doesnt work, hack him down before he gets to last man

miralize · 02-10-2014 12:39pm

Jockey defending works so well in this game

It's not you.

The defending is woeful now.

I've had players literally walk through my defenders.

In <13 - Never..... in 14 - sometimes.... in 15 - too many times

Defending my always my strong point, I can always easily get to D1 and win the title in Seasons but even I've had lads just walk by my defenders this year.

What's worse as well about this year is just even getting your defender to a spot you want to defend is a challenge.
I've had defenders do circles while trying to just set them up near the back of a striker.

The counter has always been a problem in FIFA but it's actually worse this year.

Lads can just do a dirty 180 degree spam pass out of a packed box straight to their striker, then running at a spread out defence with loads of space is far too easy now (added to the mess that is navigating with the defenders).

Also that tip off run can be a nightmare... if that first CM is beat its a run at your CB.
Some of the ones I've struggled badly with have literally ran the same route, I'll have to record it next time to try counter it.

Thanks for the morale boost but I'm still pretty sure most of its me! lol

Bradz213 · 02-10-2014 3:13pm

The counter attacking element is over powered but I think the defending is actually class. I'm starting to get a lot better at it. It requires better skill and timing rather than just holding sprint and contain or bashing Square (still use Pro Evo controls)

Absolutely terrible. I played the early access on my PS3 but didn't enjoy it. More of a squad and kit update on 14. The difference between PS3 and PS4 15 is way bigger than the difference between PS3 and PS4 14

Basically if you put in a lot of hours or play other games, upgrade.

Really? I played the demo and wasn't massively impressed or anything, All i use Fifa for is Career mode and playing with friends, the upgrade is €60 for Fifa15 PS3 or like what €450 for Fifa 15 PS4? Is the difference really that bad?

Bradz213 · 02-10-2014 3:38pm

If you are playing with mates and offline it's probably not worth upgrading. I play online mostly. I havent been a massive gamer in the last few years and really only bought a PS4 to start playing again, however i only really play Fifa so it was still a worthy purchase for me.

You Playing on PS4? You need to assign the other controller to a profile. I think you can create a guest profile for this AFAIK

J Mysterio · 02-10-2014 5:59pm

Personally I regret buying the PS4. All.the exclusives have been feckin ****e. Was happy enough with the PS3 myself.

I didnt realise there was no backwards compatibility either as there always was previously. Had I known that, it would have been a dealbreaker, never mind the PS+ subscription.

FIFA 15
