Hahaha yeah I do mainly use a 5-4-1 customized formation... I thought you noticed it right away once you started keeping possession a lot in midfield and I mean A LOT lol cuz you literally just passed the ball around playing keep away like the whole game when you used Barca .... but like I said it's a customized formation, I don't play ultra defensively, I just like having an extra player out wide mainly to contain wing play/crossing... I do move them up in my formation so it looks almost like a 3-4-3 especially when I adjust my tactics... Iyt works really well with Brazil cuz you have Marcelo and Alves on the wings.... Also don't know if you noticed but I put Maicon in CDM he seems like a beast in that position - I actually used Brazil a lot in H2H but their finishing seems to suck at times so I mostly use RM now.... So yeah the customized 5-4-1 works well for me with RM, I hate the stupid defensive AI so I like having always that extra defender in case the AI screws up... Just curious what would you do differently now that you know I play 5 at the back?? Also why the hell isn't James Rodriguez on Colombia for friendly mode? that's why I prefer to meet in the lobby cuz the lineups throw me off.... Oh and lastly Ecuador is actually a really good team to use in H2H I was checking the global ranking and one of the top 20 players uses strictly Ecuador, I used to use them a lot and got to like Div. 3 with them... I might try using them again
I usually play keep away to bring my opponents out. If i had known you were using 5-4-1, I would have attacked from inside out instead of from the outside in. And tried to make your midfield move up. If im not mistaken you played with only 1 center defensive mid? If that player gets out of position at any time, you leave a shit ton of space in the middle. And update your roster. Maybe you haven't done that in a while. Can't believe you didnt have James Rodriguez lol holy sh*t. Maybe you just didn't see him/missed him??
Ahhh ok that could maybe work.... I am not big on strategies I am not a Fifa pro but yeah it's hard to play when my opponents keep possession and play up the middle...(luckily most always play down wings) I'm not really good with the tactics and formations... I know a lot of the top players have all that figured out but I just try to play simulation futbol and be unpredictable in attack I have no set style of play. Defensively I do fairly well.... I just use a simple strategy by looking at the open players and anticipating where my opponent will try to pass... Another thing I do defensively is look at the whole field at once and get a feel for where the play is going towards, I do it offensively at times too(I think that's how you keep possession well?) - looking at the overall positioning of players and spacing, that's why I readjust players positioning a lot which works good for me when the AI is not acting completely retarded... Yea James Rodriguez is not on my offline roster which is what's used in frienlies but he is on the roster for h2h matches.. don't know why though... The teams I i used most in my road to D1 was, Colombia, Ecuador, Brazil, AC Milan and Real Madrid but RM for me is head and shoulders above any team.
Yeh Ecuador and Colombia are both good in h2h.. I used Colombia but now I use Ecuador with this formation- ---------------------------Banguera --------------Morante------Campos------Erazo Paredes----------------------------------------------Ayovi ------------------------Noboa Valencia---------------------------------------Mendez -----------------------Benitez ----------------------Caicedo Paredes is sick as a rwb and with Valencia they are 2 speedy dudes down the right... I think Paredes is 93 pace and 90 acceleration and 80+ balance/agility.. So I just use this lienup and only lost 2 of 26 games and made it to d1
my bad crackdaddy, my power went out and I just got disconnected. too many damn storms lately cuz of this heat
Crackdaddy you mutha*** lol j/k bruh ..you got me this time... but the last game the connection kept dropping in the 2nd half especially in the last 10 minutes when you tied - Did you notice I stop playing? that's cuz of lag and the connection completely dropping on me.... Still I didn't play too good.... In my defense I been on vaca for like a month with no Fifa and kept screwing up the skill moves Whatev man you won so can have the Ecua crown(for now)........
WTF EA... Why can't these retards count a win right when the game ends why if you get disconnected during the stupid after-game handshakes does it count as a 0-3 loss even if you won 3-0??? This is the sh*t that makes me want give the middle finger to EA and go with PES lol
i made it to D1 earlier this week I'm like hessitating to go for the title. Got 3 Premier Cups, 4 continental cups. I really want one League Title and i'll have won it all.
Just go for it bruh your AOL will go up though so you will face tougher opponents but I believe at the start of the season you face weaker opponents then as you start to win your AOL goes up and face better players.... I played something like 8 seasons or so and came close to the title I got 18 pts a few times... I haven't played any cups or anything but good luck in d1...
Still haven't fixed this issue? It's been like 6 years. I won't buy another FIFA until the next gen consoles come out.
I finally caved and got Fifa 13, DL'ing right now - Tell me I didn't make a mistake, it was between this and Borderlands 2 but opted for Fifa, sooooooooo is the game any good?
I've been playing FUT a lot since I got the game can't get into seasons H2H as the games are lagging a lot and I find it hard to find opponents... Sucks big time I have no lag when playing FUT, I'm on a 10mb d/l with wired ethernet which is decent so It's not my connection... Anyways been enjoying FUT 13 for the most part, I've got a nice Ligue 1 French squad and I'm 44-1-11 with 4 titles using this budget team lol... The game still frustrates the hell out of me at times though, I'm just not feelin the overdone 1st touch feature, world class or even professional player should not have such terrible touches all the time, also my game still freezes randomly I thought they would've sorted that shit out by now.... Well just A LOT of issues I'm not even gonna get into it.... I like the trading aspect and the web app, being able to build your team, wealing and dealing players, even from your labtop when you're not playing the game, it's all good times so I can't complain too much - Still there are things EA need to sort out with the gameplay, bugs, glitches etc...
well I don't know, maybe it was the servers at the time.... I'm going to try h2h again now that I moved to FL...... UT has been pretty interesting so far I'm enjoyinh it the thing I hate about h2h is playing the same teams over and over again(Barca, Real). Check it out I made a hybrid Ecuador/Russian league squad, gonna try it out now that I have internet. http://www.ea.com/uk/football/fifa-ultimate-team/show-off#kJ2qWXbxnHTwO:ps3
I went AND GOT ME HULK, WELLINGTON, DIARRA AND SOME OTHER PLAYERS - Wasn't happy with that Ecua hybrid squad too many bad touches.... I made it to Div 1 though but had to Change my squad for the last couple games in Div 2 cuz I didn't want to risk it. I'm still staying with Valencia though I got him and Hulk now on the right it's like 2 Pander tanks running riot down that side.
I just started playing that new touney thing online the World fifa club championship. I play with Ecuador the only thing I don't like is that I play with Ecua and then I have to play against real, barcelona or some top tier team no fair! They need to fix that.
Finally won the D1 championship and the Gold Tournament in FUT... Felt like the game was trolling me hard lol lost out because of disconnects and what I would consider bad luck but well I guess I had to win it eventually.... Here the team I used to win it all http://www.ea.com/uk/football/fifa-ultimate-team/show-off#jjfe2V82nHZHi:ps3 For those of you who play FUT reason I put Mirallas at ST is because he has 88 pace and is pretty strong, he works well with this lineup... I had Balotelli and Van Persie but they were weeeakkk soft as teddy bears had to sell them... Now I'm looking to get Aguero, I have like 150k atm but I don't know dudes this team just synchs up really well with my Counterattcking style and don't see any need for Aguero right now, don't know if he will green link my cam's like Mirallas does with Dembele hmmmm.... I'll probably get him shot though lol if he fails I'll just sell him like I did the other failed experiments lol. Ohh and Dembele is a beast don't know why he goes so cheap, so is Bale with him and valencia on the wings there is just too much pace and power in this team.... Valencia was my MOTM in both finals scored 2 goals in my Championship match and had a goal and an assist in my Gold tourney final
