Gaming FIFA 17

[NYAS]

In a manager career and just played against Chelsea in the league. Noticed that they had a lot of good defenders, and then I remembered that I thought the same thing when I played them earlier in the season too.

Went to search players and looked at their team. They have 14 fecking central defenders, and most of them are of starting quality.

Let's name them, shall we?

They already had David Luiz, John Terry, Zouma, Ivanovic and Gary Cahill, Christensen and Kalas came back from loans and stayed there during the season, and two youngsters in Tomori and Omeruo. Not to mention Azpilicueta can play at CB. Fair enough, right?

No, they only went out and bought fecking Laporte, Varane, Manolas, Sokratis and Savic. And all of the names I already mentioned earlier are still there and haven't been sold!

I haven't even mentioned the full-backs they have. I wish EA would put about 10 minutes a day into working on career mode, to make it more realistic. There have been slight improvements to it this year to be fair, but that just takes the cake to be honest.

Another shite weekend league where I didn't finish it. Got 18 wins from 22 games and was on for elite but just can't finish it. Never have enough time and usually hungover on Saturday and working on Sunday I've not managed 40 games once.

 

[Big Andy]

Can you not have a tournament where 4 players can play as locked players? I know you can in career mode with 2 players...

Had the lads round last night for a FIFA night and the plan was we all lock to players and play on the same team, but the custom tournament didn't give us the option...

anyone?

 

[SSSSnake]

Managed to get gold 1 this weekend but my god it was such a bore fest. So many 1-0 because fecking dicks play park the bus! I'm so desperate to get into the Elite for those totw packs but 29 wins is such an ask!

It's quiet annoying, in my career United have Zlatan,Kane, Lacazatte, Rashford and Aubameyang as their strikers, also as you said Chelsea keep buying up all the cb's

Some crazy stuff happens on Career Mode.

Someone posted on Reddit Rashford being sold to Bayern for £165m!

 

[bosnian_red]

Just did one of those squad building challenges (marquee matchups), ended up getting de gea! Usually just gain around 5k after completing the set of them, huge boost this time.

 

[Skills]

The defending system is completely broken in this game, made worse by the dreadful passing.

Why are the feckers who just chop you down rather than actually try to defend rewarded so much in this game? Because of the dreadful passing system you can't kill them off, rather they chop you down not get a yellow or are the ones who actually get the advantage.

When I finally took over United from Palace after three seasons , they had around seven world class strikers. Kane, Lacazette, Ibra(still), Benzema, Martial(89) Rashord(85), Aubameyang and some other Italian striker rated 86. And you know what? United were nearly battling relegation before I took over.

The game is muck. Tempted to give PES another shot..

 

[Mihai]

Started playing the journey the other day.

I opted to sign for Middlesbrough, to get game time and just so it seems more realistic.

Anyway, everything went well, till they signed Harry feckin Kane on the last transfer day I will never play this crap again.

It's only one fecking season too. Utter bullshit!

Yeah, it's good old career again this year.

 

[Zebs]

That answers my question. I'm most of the way through the season and am getting a bit bored by it so was going to ask if it goes on for much longer. I'll finish it so.

 

[berbatrick]

Are the FIFA 13 servers still up? And is there a place to download it from officially?

 

[Sarni]

I don't think they will be up. I don't think even FIFA 15 servers will be up and I actually suspect FIFA 16 servers will soon be out too. Am I right?

 

[DatIrishFella]

Two questions for ultimate team aficionados;

1. Why are the likes of James McClean, Darren Randolph and Harry Arter, silver players in the low 70's going for thousands of coins?

2. I bought fifa 17 off the American psn store, last night I completely forgot about that and bought 10euro worth of fifa points off the Irish store, seems I can't use the points I bought. Any work around?

Don't be a fruit and play Proclubs?

Oi.

I'll be back on later. Going to get food now.

Just got IF Yaya Toure in a pack

 

[P-Nut]

Just got IF Yaya Toure in a pack

Bastard!!! I've got 132k saved up since I stopped playing draft and spending the coins on packs.

In other news I suckling as weekend league! Get gold 1 consistently but elite 3 is always just out of reach!!!

 

[Eddy_JukeZ]

Nah 15 servers are definitely still up.

14's are up I am pretty sure. I think 13's are too.

It's guys like you that give us hope when buying packs.

Managed gold 2 this week. Had a right shocker....Does anyone know when the November monthly awards get released?

 

[Smores]

Do you all qualify for the weekend league through the tournaments or by way of division placing?

Find the tournaments such a chore and not got high enough in a div to qualify yet

Got promoted to Division 1 to qualify and then stayed in since if you get 18 wins, you qualify automatically for the next week.

The October rewards were released 15-16th of November, so about the same time in December.

My goal for the month was gold to get the 3 in-forms. Managed to get Elite in the end, 11 fecking in-forms! Don't even care if they're untradeable.

Fair play mate- I can never manager to get through 40 games constantly. I will always have 1 or 2 weekends where I'm away or can't get the game time properly. You must have a fairly decent squad to get in the elite?

Cheers. I'm never actually going to play FUT Champs again, it would drain you. It's like grinding in an RPG game or something. But I saw the monthly rewards and said I'd give it one concentrated go for a month.

Had two teams. One main team and one for fitness.

Even with Ronaldo, Neymar, Bale, Aubameyang and Sanchez getting in-forms this month, Depay is actually the card that I want.

I have not played a football game properly in ages and am going start in the next few days...I have fifa 16 yet to be opened, which was bundled when i bought my ps4.

Is fifa 17 worth the upgrade?

For the casual gamer probably not mate. However the story mode is a welcome upgrade on Fifa 17.

The story mode is the most scripted thing ever! No matter who you sign for, the club will buy Harry Kane and you will play in the cup final against your mate.

Thanks, did you play the fifa 17 demo? if so, is the gameplay the same as the final version or was it tweaked?

Nah I didn't play the demo mate. So can't really compare.

Tweaked quite a bit, and in some frustrating ways but it's still an upgrade on 16 I would say

The Journey was so shit

 

[SSSSnake]

The Journey was so shit

I quite enjoyed it and I'm sure in the future they can expand on this game mode quite drastically. At least they are trying compared to previous versions of FIFA which is same shit.

I played with United.

Every single game, without fail, Pogba started on the bench and came on in the 55th minute, while Mata replaced Rooney after 65 minutes. Every. Single. Game.

Harry Kane and I never played together once. In fact, when I came back from my loan, he didn't make a single appearance.

We won the league with three games to go and just wandered off the pitch as if nothing had happened. The trophy celebration for the league and the cup were identical.

The interviewer would constantly put the microphone back in front of me after telling me the interview was done.

Despite playing for Manchester United, the game said I was based in London, but when I got a loan move to Norwich, suddenly I moved out of London so that I could play for them.

This was the first time I've owned FIFA since 1996 so maybe people are just used to mediocrity. You can have all the badges, kits and team names you want, I'll be going back to PES now.

 

[Utdstar01]

Probably the worst fifa I've played in terms of scripting. So many games on ultimate team where I'm absolutely destroying the guy his keeper will make about 15 saves and they score from 1 of their 3 shots they have on goal from outside the box the ball isn't even hit at pace and it rolls underneath Cech's legs in the middle of the goal

 

[Berbaclass]

What rewards do you get for playing FUT draft?

 

[Hernandez - BFA]

I'm incredibly good at this FIFA.

 

[Carolina Red]

So I've been unable to connect to the FIFA servers since this past Thursday...

 

[Grylte]

Can someone please tell me how to turn off the sound of my opponent?
I have no interest in hearing people's kids crying, them talkin to their mothers, shouting when i score, sing or whistle.... these are the only ones i've met.
Can't seem to find where to turn it off.
