If anyone is looking for a young striker that will develop well should look for Yassine Benzia. He's 19 and starts at 63 overall, but has a potential of 85.
Can he be bought for cheap? Seems most of those known young strikers are more expensive than 99% of MLS teams would dish out. What about South Americans?
I went to download the Football Manger Demo to see if I wanted to buy it. I guess you can only play it if you have Steam even if you want to play it offline. Stupid.
I love steam. I always hit up the sales when they have them, pickup a bunch of games on the cheap and play through them until the next sale.
Dood, kan u reed? Steam is a centralized platform presented by Valve that allows access to games across multiple platforms. It's a great source to purchase and install games that you can play anywhere on any computer as long as Steam is installed. I am not much of a gamer and I still love it--the idea is just awesome. I play TF2 almost exclusively. Check out this awesome vid from one of the characters from the game: the Spy (it's so totally worth watching!)
Steam is a product of Valve, makers of Half-Life. It's basically a desktop app that allows for purchasing of games through other companies and also has a built in dashboard in game to chat with friends and whatnot. The incredibly nice thing about Steam is that it's a nice way to buy/play through games they offer. steampowered.com is their site, it's a solid platform and they have sales on games there all the time. Thanksgiving/Xmas/Summer is when they'll have bigger sales on a lot of their stuff saving up to 75% off some games and game packs. They also do a really good job supporting indie games, some of which are rather amazing (and inexpensive!) Typically I can go through their sales and pickup 5 games or so for incredibly cheap, casually play through them, then grab a few more when the next round of sales hits. It's always funny seeing some of these new games come out at $60, and steam will throw them up at 25% off within a couple months. Great way to save some cash if you're willing to wait a couple months to play some of these games.
I use ORIGIN (similar to Steam) to run FIFA 13 on my PC (thats a segway to get back to FIFA 13 discussion). I tried EA's Football Manager, FIFA Manager 2013 free as a demo on ORIGIN but I found it boring. I need to control the players and also be able to play. I can't play manager and thats it. Thats boring.
C'mon boo! Dunt make fun of me cuz i beez illigitimate! I beez werkin on my reedin and ritin! Thanks...that was a lot easier to understand than sneaking peeks at the Wiki page, while the boss is trying to bust me for net surfing.
Origin is far and away terrible compared to steam. I hate that it's required for FIFA13 as far as manager games go, Football Manager is easily the best and most detailed out there. I almost love playing that more than FIFA, but I can understand why some would rather play the players, instead of managing everything else about a team. I'm just a huge fan of developing tactics around the players available, or trying to find the players to fit a system I want to play. I lose far too many hours to FM vs FIFA when I really get playing.
Agreed--that is a large part as to why I like it so much. Okay fine, Prime. Back to your FIFA stuff. For the record, I wish I had the patience to play soccer video games. I've tried...
Well RSL would never buy him then. Any way I can just convince him to come for 100k and a great deal on a Hansen townhome?
Thanks. It wasn't quite like that, but if you hit the X button in the Trade Pile screen, it does give you a similar option. Must be a 12 vs 13 thing.
How about a bump? Anyone done anything interesting in the last month? According to FIFA, Rimando is a shit keeper (the dumbest balls just roll right past him), but Salcedo and Plata do very well for me. I also scored my first bicycle kick, on accident, with a 60 rated striker (Garcia). http://www.ea.com/soccer/videos/ugc/155194321
We've gotten a little sucked in by FIFA on the iOS devices. Fun stuff. Been building a FUT RSL team, still looking for an elusive Olave RSL CB. And why are there so many Bonfiglis out there? Argentine fever anyone?
