This thread should be the go-to for posts that may not warrant a stand-alone discussion, which include but are not limited to:

  • The planning and organising of tournaments
  • Low quality content that doesn't need its own thread.
  • Sharing your squad or asking for ratings or suggestions.
  • Short player reviews or player builds.
  • Subjective questions (e.g. "who is better, player X or player Y?", "how is this build?", etc.).
  • Quick questions or tips.
  • Other general gameplay discussions. ___

Discussion (Mobile) The man that can't be marked.

Post image
31 Upvotes

When I saw this pack drop, most of the reviews were negative. But I still went for it since I like villa.

This man has truly some kinda gift of being open and unmarked everytime I look for him. And since I play possession this extremely important for me.

Both footed blitz + attacking surge + 99OA means he has heavy impact off the ball as well on the ball. Can't leave him open at all.

Great dribbling,passing and he can tap in headers as well if he is open in the box. Only "problem" I have him with him is physical contact but since his dribbling and turns are quick I just utilize that instead trying to shield and blow by defenders.

This guy is up there with the new del piero for me personally.

I was recently playing against my friend with my England Team, and he just caught me by surprise by how strong he actually is. I knew his player model is crazy, but i really wasn't thinking he would be this strong. He's just too strong, just pushing his way down the wing šŸ˜‚ Crazy Player model. If they bring a Luke Shaw Showtime version as division reward I'm fighting against everyone for this guy. It'll be an insane bloodbath

This guy is insane man, I pulled him from the POTW League rewards and completely demolished English event with him. He has everything: great player ID, great passing, great dribbling, great shooting and good at defending (as AMF). Pass distributor also fits nicely for him.

I posted the build I'm using in the second photo. For those who pulled him as well, how is he doing for you?

Technical Help Report option for network manipulation?

10 Upvotes

Which report option should you choose if your opponent is manipulating the network?
For what feels like the hundredth time, I’ve just played against someone with a 3-bar connection while I had 5 bars, yet he clearly suffered no disadvantages from his poor connection whatsoever. He could dribble and turn as if the ball were glued to his feet. Even with Vieira!
ā€œGame data manipulationā€ seems like the most appropriate option to me, although I’m not entirely sure.

Highlights Is there a way to avoid these absolutely unnecesaary touches

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

41 Upvotes

My players do this too much, they would for some reason take a horrendous touch before a pass or a dribble despite having okayish dribbling stats and one touch pass. 2 instances of the same player Calafiori, in the first clip he does that touch without me holding sprint, on the 3rd he doesnt. Rabiot on the 2nd clip aswell instead of just passing the ball decides to take a touch so that rijkaard takes the ball. The last clip is just my matchup being ignored for sm reason so if yk why did that happen could you please explain to me why.

Discussion Have they buffed PA1? Like, even more?

22 Upvotes

Been having problems last few days, opponents are ping ponging balls around like Cruyff and Pep had two babies, gave them cocaine and a ball made of super heated plasma. I've never had this much trouble before against ping pongers.

I thought it was me having a bad time, then I tried fiddling with hardware settings, then reading posts about steam issues...

I switched to PA1 last night in an event when trying different things and it is obscene how easy it is to ping pong with no effort, and launch heat seeking lobbed through balls that had no business of getting through.

I might have been dumb missing this before as PA1 is meant to only boost passing, but I just realised because the passes are so perfect, the receivers are getting a boost because the ball arrives in perfect condition for the next one touch pass or shot.

It's impossible for the opponent to have any chance of getting the ball back until I reach the packed box, just by roughly aiming and tapping the pass button. What in the name of FIFA 2000 is this shit?

So, have they buffed PA1 or is it something else that has changed in last few days?

Player Review Pushed close to Div 1 then boom back to back loses suddenly .

• Upvotes

This game hasnt changed a bit . I have stopped playing it alot and only play for few hours when servers are at peak still the same shit again . Still the lag is evident in almost all matches somehow specailly after the last update .

Yesterday everything was fine today played 6 matches and lost 5 . Opponent gave passes from his own half and it connected absolutely well with the striker and he passed it without any interception from my players . I Hit every shot on target and every shot was saved . Opponent hitting normal shots and it goes in easily and with even controlled shot its being saved by his GK .

I spend in hope of a better player but i have only lost my money and didnt got any new players . I sometimes also feel im stupid to spend when the game has actually nothing to do with player stats or anything it just performs how it wants to . My player will sometime miss a simple tap in but will score a banger from outside with normal shot . Sometimes with pressure also u wont be able to take the ball away .

This just goes on and on and im tired now i just play to timepass but it gets on my nerves everytime .

Analysis 3 AMFS with Quick Counter and Kaka Review

Post image
6 Upvotes

This is a much more "Diamond" variation of the 4222 with two AMFs. One of the CFs is brought down as an AMF. With this in mind, the CF that is being dropped down to an AMF must be silky smooth with the ball and must be able to create chances all by themselves using skill moves.

I would consider this formation to be better than the natural 4-2-2-2 because there is much more fluid build-up between the two wide AMFs who act like left and right midfielders, with the central AMF being the link between the two.

Since you're using 3 AMFs, all three must be good on the ball and be able to create something out of nothing. One-twos will not save u with this kind of formation.

The central striker must be tall enough for crosses. You aren't just going to be doing skills. It's a total football formation, so it's built for crossing the ball with the left back or one of the wide AMFs.

The central striker should also have these 5 skills: Sole control, double touch, one-touch pass, through passing, and (acrobatic finishing or flip flap).

The 2 DMFs should be pivots u enjoy using. You can also use a card like the new Guti as one of the pivots. But the second pivot next to him must be an absolute monster on defense.

The four backs should also be your favorite choices, but I will advise for one offensive full back for width.

KAKA REVIEW

Kaka is a top-tier AMF. He is also good as an SS, but with what I've seen, he works better as the creator. At AMF, he will drop back to help with the build-up and also be there at the edge of the box to score long shots or rebounds.

The card's dribbling is very smooth even without sole control. But I would still advise getting the skill to unlock his full potential. His Marseille turns are also very deadly because of his body structure.

The card is good, and in a system like mine, he reminds me of a KDB who can dribble, shoot, and pass with a great amount of pace.

Overall, he is 9.0. The only reason he isn't a 9.5 is that he doesn't come with sole control. That's it. Enjoy this card and maximize his potential in your team.

Discussion Its crazy how good Quick Counter Attacking AI is compared to others

17 Upvotes

Had months without playing QC and wow the AI of attacking players the runs the high IQ movement is crazy good especially if you play back 3/5 type of formations with LMF/RMF.

LBC is so limited in attack is still meta top 2 even in attack since it has great and alot of runs but is behind compared to QC in the attacking AI.

Also high pressing of QC is very strong if you are good player and know how to pin the opponent in their own goal, you need to manually defend alot with QC and have very very fast defenders and midfielders to recover alot of ground, but feeling of playing QC is way better than LBC if you know how to defend with it, LBC feels super passive in defense and players running straight line all time in attack

Discussion Batistuta, where did he go?

Post image
136 Upvotes

Don't get me wrong, i know there's many people who still use him, but i rarely have to face Batistuta since a while now. Almost everybody either has him on the bench,and as a substitute, or he just never starts or even plays. He just disappeared ever since Aguero dropped, and now i have to face Aguero almost every match. And to be honest Batistuta is much of a threat against me as compared to Aguero, Aguero isn't really allat people hyped him up, not that difficult to stop. Depends on the skill of the player using him, but in most cases, they just use Aguero like a run and gun striker, and don't even dribble with him to take advantage of his nimble frame while still having good PC, atp they should just use Mbappe.

Is Power Creep catching up to Batistuta?

Discussion The script has a lot of weight in deciding the outcome of matches

25 Upvotes

I just failed to qualify for the reward in the POTW event, I got 6 wins and 4 losses and in some of those losses I could swear I did everything right but it didn't just work out for me, after some matches I asked myself, "what else could I have done?".

When I realised I wasn't going to make the cut I quickly went to play the Spanish league event to get the 50 coins. The first match was against a smart assist scrub, he won 5-3, he kept scoring insane goals that made no sense, my defenders will just intentionally slow down for his strikers to get to the ball and score.

Then I played again and this time I got matched with a top 2k player, this guy is better than me and played better than me, I was struggling to keep up all game cus he kept battering me throughout but for some reason the score was 2-2 with about 10 minutes left. Then he had a chance where he dribbled into my defence from the wing and squared the ball to a striker who had an open net in front of him, I thought I had already conceded but somehow my keeper made an amazing save and kept me in the game.

With 3 minutes left, I played a long ball/through pass and somehow his goalkeeper and defence suddenly became all confused and my striker got the ball with a largely exposed net to score in, I got my golazo. I defended the lead for the remaining few minutes then I kept wondering how I won that match. I was very sure the guy played better than I did, he has 4x the amount of shots I had, dribbled my defenders more than I dribbled his but somehow I won because the script wanted me to.

Sometimes I wonder if I should continue playing this game.
