FIFA 12- Official Thread

ive played about 15 online games so far, lost 2, drawn 1, the amount of people who also play as city is insane, ive only played the rags once! times be changing
 
I do not know what your lads experience has been but I have scored more own goals in the last few days (picked up FIFA 12 this weekend) then I ever did with the three previous FIFA encarnations combined. And I am a fairly decent player playing at Pro level to get used to the tactical defending (thought I would play a season or two and then go back up to World Class). If you do not tell your player to clear it they'll just poke it into their own goal (previous versions the player would automatically clear if they were facing their own goal). And this would be a problem that is mostly my own if they had not done it several times off of scraps in the box where The game literally just auto-switched me to the defender that just gained possession as they knock it in. And if you do have control for more than a split second you have to be extremely precise with clearing our you ended up hitting your own player and potentially scoring.

I have scored four incredibly frustrating, nonsensical own goals so far. One of them the keeper to watched roll in from about quarter-pitch as I desperately pressed "Y".

I like the tactical defending, as difficult as it can be at times, but the awkwardness of how it comes off in the box is beyond what you see in real life. I had one of my own CPU-controlled players run into as I was running the ball out and some how glance the ball in the opposite direction for an own goal. At that point I shut the game off and went out to play some real football to alleviate the frustration.

------------

Another observation, but in my first season with a League 2 club City sold off David Silva, Kompany, Edin Dzeko, and Milner in the Summer transfer window. This along with Barça selling off Messi, Villa, and Dani Alves, Spurs getting rid of Modric, and Bale, and Chelsea buying literally everyone under the sun. I love that they have made the transfer part of the game much more robust but my god none of those teams would ever do that in reality.

Is anyone good at Team Play?

I've been playing <a class="postlink" href="http://www.totalfifaleagues.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.totalfifaleagues.com/</a> for a few months now, just makes Fifa more enjoyable. Basically I got a manager job as Zenit, then got an upgrade to Inter Milan and then another upgrade to City.

I've got 2 striker's & my other mate can play GK or CDM. Would anyone like to join my team? I need a GK, CB & CDM....

There's a Premier League & Super League. Premier League has got the Premier League teams in it as expected. The Super League has got all the best teams in Europe. You have 4 games a week, you also can move games forward but not backwards. I've got 2 games on Sunday v Liverpool & Man United. Liverpool I should beat easy, but United have played 13 & won 13. I've recently took over Man City & won 3 drew 1.

I go as any so I control the players who haven't been picked, I've got a mate who plays GK or CDM & 2 other guys play upfront. I just need a GK or CDM & a CB.

It's also on Xbox...

What a fucking save.<br /><br />-- Fri Nov 25, 2011 7:42 pm --<br /><br />If you play Head to Head seasons & you need to win a match to either get promoted or to stay in the division be Stoke City.

------------- Begovic -------------

Huth - Shawcross - Woodgate - Upson

------------- Palacios ---------------

Pennant ------------------- Etherington

------------- Jerome ---------------

------- Crouch ----- Jones ---------

Get Pennant or Etherington on the ball who are both fast as fuck and cross it to Crouch or Jones, works a treat. I only use that team when I need to win. I play Jerome in CAM cos he's also rapid.
 
Starting to enjoy the game online again. Used to always be city but then just got bored of playing Madrid or Barca every game, where they just seem to give it to Ronaldo or messi and score. So started using stoke for a few games, then have now finally settled with everton. Won the past 5 games with them and having some decent games. They just have shit strikers so I play Cahill there on his own
 
Why would you play as Stoke if you need to win a game? surely you would go Real, Barca, Bayern or City etc

Anyways,
I have started a new ultimate team;

------Dzeko------------Sturridge---
--Milner-------Merieles----Wilshere
Clichy---------------------------Richards
------Skrtel----Dawson---Lescott-------

I always play as 4/4.5 star teams online. Much more interesting than always playing the same game time after time or playing against City. If you really need to win a game then you're better off being a crap team, then you'll be playing a crap team and at least they'll struggle to pull off amazing long shots and skills against you!
