    I'm not sure how the above is annoying?!? People are allowed to play whatever teams they want surely?!? I play Neymar as a striker on 7 chem and I get messages from people complaining about it. Not sure what the issue is. I just think he's better up top than Benzema. Bale is great as a striker too.

    Playing Ultimate Team, in division 4 now I think and feel like I'm playing with a handicap, every team has some sort of combination of Diego Costa, Mario Balotelli, Gareth Bale, Ibarbo or the Russian pace whores who's names escape me at the moment. I have Walcott but jesus it's rediclious feel like their is no point in playing till I save up to get Diego Costa. Usual team I play against, Howard, Kompany, Koscielny, Fabregas, Mata, Balotelli, Costa then fill in the blanks, unplayable against really.

    Get two pacey fullbacks and the wingers will be relatively redundant. They'll still do you in if you can't defend but you'll have a fighting chance. Huge fan of piszcek, although not sure how much he's going for these days.

    playing seasons online and everyone seems to pick real madrid with their only tactic being lob ball over the defence for bale or ronaldo to run onto. no skill involved in it at all. that and people who watch every single replay.

    Picking 4.5 star teams solves the Madrid problem.

    That is true, but its a terrible solution.

    Its a shame you have to more or less avoid playing 5 star teams to get around the Real bandits.

    I honestly think they made changes like that to get people away from seasons and into UT.

    I just used to back out against people who'd go for the edge team when ye picked together, id rather still have that option.

    Or a pre pick but load into a UT style kit selection so you can filter them out that way

    I didn't think it was as bad this year until a few weeks ago when I noticed more and more players playing as Real. I suppose the novelty of being Man U or Chelsea with all their new signings wore off.

    One lad I remember had one tactic: play the ball down the left to Ronaldo. Didn't even bother with Bale, Benzema or James (or even Modric and Kroos for that matter).

    I don't get how people can get any fun out of doing the same thing over and over and over. It's much more fun scoring a variety of goals rather than the same ould sh1te all the time.

    Absolutely this! It boggles the mind and is just totally painful to witness. Are these people totally ****ing braindead?

    Cut scenes feel like there getting longer every game of clubs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    The inability to skip straight to a penalty kick is beyond infuriating. Even worse when they score and you're subjected to a big long celebration with no option to skip it.

    still getting booted from EA servers and its doing my head in

    Ball bouncing over keeper's head from a kick off hoof ten yards inside his half, seriously lol, Courtois just watched it all the way.

    Is there anyway to prepare for that corner kick routine where they have a second player to pass to and all your players are miles away

    Finally got a copy of the game last week. Had hoped EA had sorted everyone quitting when behind, apparently not. Have played 30 UT games and probably only heard the full time whistle 7-8 times (Mostly the ones where I was losing but played to the end). Once guys go 2 behind they just quit immediately! There should be some deterrent to this, maybe ban a player for 24 hours if they quit more than once a day or something.

    They lose coins.

    Tho I have to say I never get the problem with it. If they quit cause they think they're outclassed then fair enough. Surely you'd rather just get on to the next game where it might be more of a challenge...

    They lose coins over an extended period of time as your DNF modifier is lowered which lowers your coins over subsequent matches.

    It's a good deterrent, but it also screws over genuine players. A few times I have lost connection to EA servers mid-game (rest of internet and xbox live etc is perfectly fine) and it lowers my DNF.

    Argh just lost 5-1, 11 shots on target vs his 5!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,890 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    Won a tackle, won the ball, my player stayed down on the ground and his forward hit my players body when attempting to kick the ball

    Penalty

    WTF


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,492 ✭✭✭brianregan09


    Penalties are awarded for nothing in this game ****ing awful


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


    Last 5 goals conceded in the last 2 games:

    First game:
    • Random penalty
    • Short corner (which was given away because my defender miss-controlled the ball 18 yards backwards),

    Second game:
    • Run straight from kick off with Ronaldo
    • Random penalty
    • Random penalty

    Just to top it off, I didn't get any fouls at all, and even when my shots are blocked by a defender, goal kicks are given in both games.

    Can they not fix the collision detection and make the ref referee the game fairly?
