    That must have taken ages....

    Maybe he thinks a bigger loss will put his rating down by more

    Or he's just raging after a couple of bad games and is a prat

    it took forever, I had to keep on remembering to use my controller as I think he thought that I might put down the controller and he would get the win due to my lack of activity......

    Not entirely sure why people are saying this is awful... I think it looks more appealing to me than team 1. That Calhanoglu looks quality.

    Sissoko or Allen to partner with Kante? Would they be the best CDMs in the premier league?

    Haven't used Allen his small size and low sprint speed would frustrate me too much. Fabinho is also pretty popular and very good at shielding the ball. It really depends on what type of players you feel the most comfortable with and how you like your team to play.

    Though that new Rulebreaker Pogba might be worth a look, since he has much better defensive stats.

    The player pick sbc is a very good idea, giving you the choice of 2 different versions of same player.

    Def an interesting addition

    Still doing the slimy shít they pulled last year of having Week 2 of promos only actually last a few days so that they end before rewards are released.

    Didn’t cop that actually. That’s bad form tbh. If they’re gonna do two team promos, let them have the same duration.

    Was going to say the same :o

    I had a game earlier where I was 5-1 up and let the other guy pull it back to 5-5. Ended 7-6 in the end.

    FFS, the young lad packed Salah & Martial in last few days- Tradable

    I never seem to get anything close to it, started doing SBC’s, still no joy!!!!!!

    Nope, they said on stream it could take up to 7 days though.

    I intended to just throw the stream on, hit mute and leave it play in the background but I ended up watching a bit of it and actually enjoyed it. :o

    I didn’t realise there would be pro footballers playing too. Alexander-Arnold and Hakimi were very decent players!

    Any reason why all of my FUT matches right now are at 100mph? Like players covering the entire pitch in 5 seconds

    Yeah last night I thought it might have been in my head. But right now its like the game's speed has been notched up hugely. Physics are mental, ball seems really lose and tackles in the middle of the park making the ball fly out of play. Defenders don't have enough time to get close to contested headers. Its really bizzare.


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭✭ Laila Quick Penalty


    It's like a different game I'm not sure what's up


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,320 ✭✭✭v3ttel


    What's the new tell for penalties other than the head movement if you aim before you power it up? It doesn't matter where I aim it, it's always saved. There is no way my opponent has guessed the right corner the last 9 times in a row.

    I aim at the centre. That works well ;)

    Mentally, the whole Rodrigo, ASM, Adama Meta is burning me out. Every single game this weekend is the same, and it’s boring as hell.

    I don’t know what’s happening or why but I’ve gone from winning 4 to 5 games in a row in division 3 a couple of weeks ago to getting relegated to division 4, now on the cusp of relegation to division 5, with no Rivals wins in about 15 games.

    I have a great team so it’s not that but I literally cannot win a game anymore. :(

    That was me last weekend :pac: went down to div 5, haven’t had too much time to play since but every squad in div 5 is a god squad. I ended up just overhauling my squad with a new formation and new players, been doing well since.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,898 ✭✭✭✭Osmosis Jones


    Not playing much this weekend but if I get to 8 wins I get a 100k pack from Milestones


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,638 ✭✭✭Iago


    Pointless playing at the moment from what I can see. Lag is horrendous, played 1 & 1/2 games and logged off. Crazy they let this happen


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,175 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr Moon


    Weird, I’m having a great weekend. I’m 11-3 so far haven’t found any issues with gameplay.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,638 ✭✭✭Iago


    Last couple of hours have been terrible here anyway. Will try again tomorrow morning, in the last few games had multiple instances of the screen freezing for 2-3 seconds which is a lifetime in the game obviously.

    12-8 currently.

    Honestly, I was surprised when I saw that, cause I felt I was having an awful weekend.

    14 should be doable. Can I get a 5-5 record to hit 17? Time is probably going to be an issue tho. Busy tomorrow.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Two jumbo rare player packs. One for fivty rival wins, one for 500 goals.

    In both, the best card was the same 82 rated Portuguese LB IF. Absolutely nothing of note in either.

    I played Rivals today and found the gameplay was mental but was winning at least. Then went into my first 3 WL games and things were back to normal so honestly I am more confused then ever.

    Ended up taking a break and having a look at some 4-2-3-1 custom tactic videos. Liked the look of what The FIFA Analyst was running so gave it a go.

    4 wins in a row, averaging 4 goals a game so hopefully that continues!

    I’ve also been trying to add some more skill moves into my game and been having some success with the Berba Spin, La Croqueta and then the elastico with Neymar. I’m far from adept at them and will often panic or get confused about what I should use in what situation, but I’ve gone from never using any of the above to starting to add them in a little more each day.

    I have to say Neymar is so, so good. I’m really lucky to have packed him. Everything he does seems to be at twice the speed of my other players!

    Nice one man. The elastico was so good pre-nerf... still useful now but need to have good timing with it. Another useful skill move is the feint and turn back - just flick your right trigger to the opposite direction your player is running. One of my favourite skills... makes mince of so many players. Skill move cancel is also very broken if you time it correctly with the croqueta.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,565 ✭✭✭Parawind


    I was having a great start to my WL matches, I was going for my 8th win from 9 games, I was in the zone. I get matched with a guy running Messi and Ronaldo up front and he was a dam good player too. So I knew I was going to need a bit of luck and to be really disciplined. I manged to get a goal either side of half time and I am pretty happy with my overall control of the game. Cue the 65th min I am standing up Ronaldo on the edge of my box but I should be ok as long as I don't lunge in.

    All of a sudden BOOM BOOM BOOM, some little prick is after banging on my bloody living room window and bolting, in shock :eek: I involuntarily move my left stick up and let Ronaldo walk in and bury it. Conceded straight from my own tip and end up going to extra time only to lose a goal in 120th minute.

    After that I took a break but my focus wasn't there and my form fell apart, so I have 12W6L now.

    Moral of the story: I hate kids! :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,773 ✭✭✭SureYWouldntYa


    3 games left and need 1 win for Gold 3

    3 times in the last hour iv had disconnections in the lead, one 3-0 before HT and one was 4-1 at 85 mins

    Iv had 7/8 the last 2 days and always while in the lead, and always able to immediately get back into FUT as well

    Very frustrating


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭BrentMused


    Has anyone tried Salah and if so, what did you think of him?

    I’m debating an upgrade on Moura as RAM but Salah’s 3 star weak foot concerns me a bit.

    That said I would be subbing whoever I get in on so chemistry isn’t an issue so I could even go for someone like Rashford either. I wonder what he’d be like as a RAM?

    I use him as a RAM on 7 Chem, I was going back and forth with Bale and Lucas but wasn't really impressed with either. Rashford going wide causes people to panic and helps to open up the defence.

    With Lucas I found I was able to pass it around better but lacked penetration against tougher opposition. Even when you don't do everything right with Rashford, he tends to get the break of the ball when Lucas and Bale never did.

    I packed him untradeable yesterday out of one of those gold upgrade packs. I usually find that I can't get either RW/RCAM or LW/LCAM involved in the game as much, only difference here is that he can finesse a goal in on his left foot from just about anywhere if you think you have a shot! Handy if you are having trouble breaking down defenses.

    Played 5 and won 5 in WL since packing him, and three of the games which could have gone either way went mine due to him belting them in out of nowhere.

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,355 ✭✭✭Jim Gazebo


    Those no boundaries friendlies are impossible to get a win in I have decided. Fellas with teams packed full of icons is all I come up against.

    Went one down to a team full of icons and meta players. Went 4-2-4 constant pressure pushed right up, balls to the wall. It was some craic. Went 2-1 up somehow, he equalised last min we went to ET. he got two quick goals, I got it back to 4-3 but couldn't equalise. Was so disappointed when the highest rated player in my side was 82!!!

    I know there is an issue on xbox that if you hit "resume match" from the pause menu it can disconnect you it cost me 3 games last weekend. I'm not sure if its a issue on the Playstation and its soul destroying especially when you're winning its very hard keep the motivation to play on.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,602 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    14-12.

    I actually hit 14-9, I think, but can’t get the three wins from the final 7 matches to get up to 17. Certainly can’t see me doing 3 in four now. Nor do I think I’ll have the time.

    Maybe I’ll leave it and convince myself I’d have done it :P

    Play 1 depth, long ball, full bar players in the box. Sit back and just hoof it up.. rotten tactics but it gets the job done vs all the icons :pac:

    How good is Mbappe compared with IF Rashford? I've saved up enough coins that I could just about get Mbappe but having doubts about whether he is worth it or not.
