Gaming FIFA 17

I ended up getting it after like 130k. Got nothing good from the rewards either. Oh well. Card looks great so I dont regret it really. Wanted to get a POTM card and this one is one of the only ines that was realistic

130k is a fair enough price. I was stretching my budget to do it for 100k though so will probably have to wait and hope prices dip a little.
 
Never thought I'd say this but I fecking hate Georgie Best. Anyway I've finally found out how to beat those hyperteams. Lots of possession and slow buildup, don't let them control the game.
I think this is the way on Champs unless against people who really don't know how to defend.
 
I've now given up. Most of the players I face are to be found in top100. Wasn't a good idea to play the entire thing in one session. Also, the opponents are much weaker on sundays it seems, or at least you don't come up against freaks with no life who can't wait for the weekend to start so they can play their 30m teams.

Was never going to work out with two defeats in my first ten games anyway.

I had to do my full weekend in one as I'm at the game today and then out at night so no time to play today
 
Here's a really good tip: Never play away games. It means that the opponent has a better connection than you which increases the chances of meeting a really good player, I think. Also, I don't think the best players play away games at all so you avoid meeting them by always playing at home. Also, if you match up with an opponent who's eager to start the game even though the kits have similarities it's also more likely to be a pro player. That logic probably doesn't make sense but at least that's how I feel.

Edit: If his club name is a pun, it means you're going to kick him in the bum. Always play against them.

That's rubbish fella come on. Bet you're the type of player who backs out if you see an EA kit even though some are free lol.
 
So guys looking ahead to the premier league team weekend league, looking to build a team to compete before prices go up. looks like you'll be alllowed 2 non premier league players. I'll likely use my Ronaldo and griezman.
I've never played with a premier league team and will likely sell most of the players I buy but I'm looking for a way to improve the team I Have in my club. I play 4-5-1 and have this currently.
ST if giroud
CAM tif Kane & griezmann
LM martial RM Ronaldo
CM kante
LB Gibbs CB stones CB smalling RB Cedric( will sub on a better RB in game- currently have darmian)
GK pantilamon

Think I'll need a better GK, fullbacks and CB especially.
Only got about 50k and will need a few decent subs advice would be appreciated
 
I'm going to sell my EPL side when prices are sky high for that WL and buy it back when they drop straight after it. I should get an absolute fecking fortune for it.

If your not playing weekend league you may aswell. Only problem I see is that most people have premier league sides so the price won't drop that much really.

Butland in goal, Bailly next to Smalling and Shaw on the left back. That's crucial
 
16-4 after 20 games. Two peno shootouts and one absolute garbage game against a terrible team who managed to win even though it was 90 minutes of me battering his goal.

Ah well.
 
Hopefully Martial grabs a few goals today. Been waiting all season for him to get an IF card, would basically pay whatever is needed for that :lol:
 
Its horrible slug lag now. It ruins the game and I can't play my normal game at all, fast 1 2's and stuff. I had a great start 5 in 6 but its 5 in 9 now :/

Hope Pogba gets a few goals because I have his OTW card, one of the reasons I bought him was because of the extra excitement watching us play now.
 
Martial inform would cost about 500k minimum.
Eh, not necessarily... Willian's normal is 55k and then his in form is like 330k. And that's for the right wing where there aren't too many great options. Left wing has a bunch of options. Miki's 2nd in form is only like 230k... My guess is 300k max. Or I hope so at least.

Left wing has a bunch of options, yes, but 99% of people with PL teams (not even an exaggeration) use Martial because he's so good. So his in-form would be brilliant and have loads of hype.

I think he'll get an in-form. Goal and an assist and there wasn't too many other standout performers in the PL besides Gabbiadini and Sanchez and I doubt Sanchez will get another in-form for a couple of goals against Hull.

Plus with the Prem only weekend league. He's going to be expensive as feck at first but by the time the next weekend league comes with the no prem weekend league his price will go down a lot I'm sure.

His stats and traits on the base card are ridiculous.

Traits

Shooting - Finesse Shot
Flair
Dribbler - Speed Dribbler
Technical Dribbler
Backs Into Player

Specialties

Speedster
Dribbler
Acrobat


91 pace, 79 shooting, 70 passing, 87 dribbling & 76 physical.


I can only imagine what his inform will be like. Probably like 94, 85, 78, 90, 80
 
I have the same pattern week on week. Excellent start 8-9/10. Dodgy middle but still on for elite 14-15/20.

Then comes the shit. Can't buy a win to save my life. 18/30 max.

Last 10 turn it around to make gold 1 25/40.

This happens no matter how many disconnects, legendary teams, TOTY front 3 etc I come up against.

Surely I've got to make elite 3 at least once this year.

It's like it makes zero difference what squad I use or what squad they use I can only ever make gold fecking 1!!!

Same. 7/8 and now I've lost 5 in a row. Had 3 people message me out of those 5 to say 'GG, you were the better team by far' or similar.

In 2 of those 5 games, we both had DDG in net. His made 16/13 saves, mine made 0/3.

All of a suddent my players don't even pass close to where they're supposed to, controlling the ball takes 2 extra touches and I can only play the pass once my player has run offside.
 
30 goals in 20 games for MOTM Son. He can't be stopped.

Currently 14-4.

He's awesome isn't he? Perfect foil for my 88 Lukaku :p


Chances of Bailly getting a TOTW for my OTW card?

Unlikely. Pretty comfortable game against a lower-placed side.

I think EA only give in-forms to defenders if they score or perform very well in a high-profile game. Good defenders don't sell packs.

They will favour OTW defenders this week though as it encourages people to try for him in the SBC. Just have to hope no defenders have big games this weekend :)
 
I have an untraceable OTW Mane. If he gets an inform does that card get an upgrade?

Not sure how these OTW cards work exactly.

Yep. Will probably jump from 82 to 84.

Maybe even 85 if he gets a hattrick.

Edit: Actually, it will be 85 since he's already got a TOTT 84 card.
 
Bought a couple of OTW Mane's yesterday for 130k each thinking EA would release Winter upgrades, they didn't but with those two goals he's already shot up 150k in price :devil:

Go to My club-> players -> EPL -> Liverpool and he should be there.

Bailly had a monster game today so there is definitely a possibility of EA giving him TOTW with the OTW just having been done. It's the sort of thing they love doing and tbf his performance definitely deserved it.

That's what I'm thinking (hoping).

Yeah same after missing out on Pogba and Kante it'd make up for it quite well.

I quite like this OTW aspect and definitely think they should retain it for future FIFAs.
 
My OTW pogba has gone down in price. I love how he has a deeper role now and probably less chance of getting a third in form.
 
15-3 so 22 games left tomorrow. Not going to manage it again. Last game I was 3-0 down but he scored from 4 shots (one being the rebound) and never had a shot after that. Finished 7-3 after extra time but I was struggling for a while :lol:
 
People who pause the game at kick off and change formation and make subs are just twats.

:lol: I do that.

Honestly though, EA need to scrap chemistry. I want to build teams freely and the 41212-2 is a pain to hybrid. So starting 4321 lets me use the players I want.

Doubt EA ever do though.
