Gaming FC 25 (Fifa 25) - Solius' favourite thread

I quite like it at the moment.

Only play career/ seasons.

I feel like when I play risky I get suitably punished so playing with United and going full transitional football is end to end stuff.

We need to make a spreadsheet and of everyone's user names and general availability for play for Rush. It could be something special

We could make a redcafe pro clubs. Usually goes for a bit before dying but might have better longevity with rush rather than full pro clubs?

Feel free anyone to make it in advance, otherwise I don't mind setting it up tomorrow probably and then I can make a thread for it and tag the usual people.

Edit: Nevermind, missus went to bed early so I made one.
RedCafe Utd FC, should be a public club so just search it and request!

Will join this eve!
 
Anyone else is up for joining the Club on here?

I always feel this is the best game mode each year– and the addition of the rush mode definitely gives it an extra dimension.
 
Was doing that Alex Morgan sbc and packed Sofia smith from one of the packs.

Been Having a blast using Morgan, smith, swanson and rodman

The 4 USA girls are very overpowered like cheat codes.

Smith is impossible to defend, did the Dunn sbc and was thinking of playing Sophia Smith. Morgan seems not agile enough for my style of play, and I don't play with wingers. Are you playing a 442/4222?

Yeah start in a 442 my player tactics are

2 CMs as box to box
RM rodman + LM swanson at inside forward and attack
Morgan is poacher
Smith is advanced forward

Think they all have + or ++ and you can feel it.

Smith is definitely the woman mbappe of this game she's insane. Morgan isn't very agile that's true but every finesse she hits on both feet is a goal. rodman is also a star considering she's 84 she feels much better than her stats.
 
Utterly perplexed by how poor the gameplay is at the moment in so many aspects.

Relying on insane patches to make the game even playable.
 
Just started playing some UT over the last two days having been playing just career mode since getting the game. It's safe to say I've gotten a lot worse at this, as I'm currently struggling to get out of division 9 in rivals :lol:

Rush is fun

Do you still play competitively? Imagine that scene has taken a nosedive.

Seems to be a pro issue this because I see loads of complaints about it, but it's the first fifa in years that I'm enjoying and actually sinking a decent amount of hours into. Granted I haven't got people abusing meta glitches constantly in div 3 though

Not a pro, but consistently get rank 2 in Champs, think the gameplay is fine. Well on PS4 that is. Apart from the still present speed boost, just think keepers are a bit too good this year 1 vs 1.

Yeah the + and ++ make a huge difference this year. My whole team is nearly ++ and tactically the set-up is just rock solid without doing much thinking on my own.

Yeah I think the middle ground that are decent at the game are enjoying it. The top and bottom are hating it a lot. 1v1s I usually score by pea rolling it into the net as the keeper can't get down quick enough

Unfortunately I do. The scene itself is not much different from a few years ago.

The gameplay is just an abomination for competitive play. It's never been ideal, but it's never been this bad. So many issues.

I've seen a lot of other people complain as well that aren't pros, but if you're playing on PC(or on last gen consoles), I have heard the gameplay is much better/more responsive.

Nope playing the ps5 version but have taken a break from it for about 2 years before this one. Game definitely still isn't perfect at all but it feels better than the last 2 for me
 
Fifa mobile is sh*t as well since EA took charge, yet I’m just going to triple my coins thanks to the latest live +ovr promotion event, so not complaining until Christmas!
 
The single player is much better if you enable the simulation setting on the sliders.

It's allowed me to whittle down my free trial to 4 hours before inevitably getting bored again.
 
In FUT, basically all the best players are cheating with a Zen Master, where they can green time any shot and score consistently from 30/40 yards out.

In Elite Division, you constantly see it. Whenever a person green times headers/volleys you can know for certain that they are cheating.

Really frustrating.
 
People always say it's scripted but it feels more like RNG to me. You may as well have an on-screen dice that gets rolled when, for example, you have an attacker and defender competing for a through ball. If the attacker has better stats then the game will either mysteriously drag your defender out of position (I see this all the time, both for or against) or not automatically make the defender run towards the striker so all you have to do is press B to put in an easy tackle.

It's also obvious when there's a loose ball because the game doesn't like these, they always need to stick to a player. Whoever wins the dice roll gets it regardless of how the in-game physics should work.

Anyway it's still fun when it balances out. I packed a RW Onana yesterday (yes our goalie) :lol:

Not sure if people still play this, but a big gameplay update dropped yesterday.

Game is finally playable to me.

It's the most I've played FIFA in a good few years. It's more due to how it's a laugh with mates rather than a decent football game though.

First game after the new patch I got a Trivela scored against me from about 30 yards out from a crazy angle with Maicon though so I'm holding off proclaiming it as great just yet :lol:

The gameplay is way more responsive and quick. Dribbling feels more responsive.

And players can't really catch up anymore when they're a good 5-10 yards behind. Normal ground passing has more zip to it as well. The defensive AI isn't as overpowering as before. There's more gaps to attack.

Sounds promising – will have a look :)
 
Totally fecked up the gameplay imo, it's too bloody fast! It's like playing fecking Mario Kart.
 
Nuked my entire club for the Mbappe SBC. Very overpriced from EA, but he's worth it for me.

Servers have been atrocious lately. I wish they were far more stable, but I doubt that happens.

That’s why I’m reluctant to do the big SBC’s like Mbappe. I did Bale but have barely played since because the gameplay has just been horrible for me. Had a week after the patch where it was okay and I played up to D2 on Rivals but since then it’s been a poor experience.
 
Had 500k and an attack of dinho, Lukaku and sane. Then I didn't evo my palmer because I still needed a striker.
Then lost 200k for stupidly buying hm nico on the release day. You can imagine how well my toty was going. Then decided to do kane SBC and the upgrade packs.
Now my attack is dinho, toty mbappe, toty salah with kane in bench.
 
Only thing I hate about this year is the huge amount of hackers with Zen Master. Who can shoot from anywhere across the pitch with green timed finishing and glitch your keeper and score. Think it's a huge issue and becoming the norm.. especially in elite division.
