FIFA World Cup 2010

Get over yourself you gimp. :lol:

It's a fecking computer game. It doesn't actually matter.

I often say that to myself when i'm in the middle of a rage, it doesnt help though.

Ultimately it doesnt matter, but at the time to really fecking does. :lol:
 
Has anyone managed to win the online world cup yet? 3 finals for me a 3 defeats

And that achievement to win it with a 1/2 star team is impossible, because every cnut plays with Spain/Brazil/France :boring:

Why are you surprised? It was always going to be the case.

No i haven't won it yet either. Got to the semi's with Angola before i ran into Spain, or should i say Torres.

Manucho was on fire and everything.

When you do an online world cup from which point do you start? Just the knockout stages i presume?

Yea, I understand that.

I just don't get this whole 'you can't do tricks or 1-2s' thing he's on about.

I bet RonaldoVII is one of these annoying guys online who'll score cut-back goal after cut-back goal, then quit when you score a decent skilled one against him.

:lol: oh yeh i know the sort.

I was playing this guy the other day, he beat me 3-1 and 4-1 but they were really well contested games. Every time he score he celebrated like like a complete wanker. By the way i was Galatasaray and he was Chelsea (fecking Live Season (:mad:) Anyway, when we played the third game and it was 1-1 with 10mins to go. I went 2-1 up then 3-1 up moments later. He quit then messaged me calling me shit etc etc etc :lol:

I'm not surprised. I hoped some gamers may have had a little big of originality though, because when you've won it once, what's the point in going back to it as Spain or Brazil?

Because they just care about picking the best side, scoring as many as they can then celebrating like complete wankers when they do it.
 
I have just qualified for the World Cup after topping the South American qualifying group as Argentina.

I've now beaten Sweden in the first group. All of this ON NORMAL.

I know you are all trembling with fear. Especially Preston. Judgement Day is almost here, Bill.

:lol: Shit, I'd better start getting some practice in.:nervous:
 
Nah, group stages first. I had a group the other day that was me as Lithuania against France, England and Spain. And managed to qualify thanks to them being shitters.

How do the groups work though? Does it rely on all 4 people being online at the same time?

No. Once you play your first game, the other games are generated, and only your results matter really (if that makes sense?)

For example, I played as New Zealand (just to get my 20g achievement) and the first game was v Iran, then Germany and my final game was v Spain - but I backed out of that and ended up playing Croatia.

It does work really well though but my biggest gripe is that you could end up with Spain v Spain in the knockout rounds, which looks really, really shit if you like to to be a little bit realistic.

Ah ok. So you pressed continue, saw it was someone playing as Spain, backed out then went back in and got a different opponent?

Get it now. So, hypothetically, could you play against Spain all the way through?
 
Do any of you actually use the tricks to beat people? I don't.
 
D'oh ! Got knocked out with Australia by Portugal in the quarter final today, was 2-0 up, but ended up losing 3-2. Had some cracking matches before that as well, 4-4 against Spain in the group stage and beating France 2-1 in the 1/8.

I'm not changing teams until I win the bloody cup with the Socceroos !:mad:
 
I just sprint blindly in one direction. I should probably freshen up my tactics.

2nd play through won it, after losing to France first time round in the 2nd round on release date.

Yea, I understand that.

Can you not read? I never said you can't, it's just ridiculous doing the same trick from kickoff. I don't see you can say that's fine when you complain about cut-backs, which happen all the time in football. How many times do you see someone do 3 Zidane turns then 1v1 with the keeper?
I don't see a problem with any method or scoring online, but that's just lame.

Get over yourself you gimp. :lol:

It's a fecking computer game. It doesn't actually matter.

Ahem. What is the problem with cut-backs? Not that I do them often. I'll more likely play right through your team than go via the wings. Fancy a game and I'll demonstrate ;)

then quit when you score a decent skilled one against him.
You took all that from me claiming the goal was lame? :wenger:
I've never quit because of a goal, or losing. Most of the time I fancy my chances to get back into the game...

Do any of you actually use the tricks to beat people? I don't.

Occasionally a step-over or back-heel knock forward type of thing...
 
Because he is clearly taking the piss on someone who can't defend. People try that online all the time, particularly when losing badly. Anyone who does know how to defend will tackle him, at worst, after the first turn. It's incredibly cheap, just like doing 1-2s constantly up the pitch.



How is doing 1-2s constantly up the pitch CHEAP?! LOL :lol:
 
I get where RonaldoVII is coming from though. If I scored from doing 1-2's all the way up the pitch it would not be satisfying. It doesn't take much thought or skill.

No, but it does take advantage of very very very poor defending!

If someone is poor enough to defend like an idiot and not defend 1-2s properly, they deserve to be punished.

From kickoff it is.

Solius knows what he's talking about, as anyone who has played a half decent number of games online should. Too many sound like they would take great pleasure in beating someone 16-0 doing 100 stepovers with their fullback and celebrating every goal with their finger to the lips...
 
RonaldoVII only chooses Real Madrid online, and he watches all his replays no matter how shit the goal. Or so I've heard...
Real are shite. Nobody who knows anything would pick them if they were going to pick a strong 5* team, which is probably why you suggested them...

I played online with Udinese half the time or Barcelona if anyone picked a top class side, but mostly did team games or with mates until UT came out. It sounds like you're projecting your lame ways onto me. You seem very sensitive about the game, did you sister design it?

You're so easy to wind up. :lol:

You live your life through FIFA don't you? Never seen anyone who takes it so seriously and reads so much into it.

Yeah as I'm raging with anger right here. Seriously, you'll have to try a lot harder than that.

How you can come to those conclusions from considering a goalscoring method as cheap I'll never know. How would someone even live their life through Fifa? You seem to read the opposite of what I'm saying.

Serious question, is English your 2nd language or something?
 
I'm just having a laugh at you, and how seriously you clearly take it all. The guy posted a decent (funny) goal and your FIFA ego felt threatened so you decided to denigrate it. :lol:

Then some classic lines like - "Real are shite. Nobody who knows anything would pick them if they were going to pick a strong 5* team, which is probably why you suggested them" - show you up for the FIFA no-lifer you are.

Lighten up.

Why would my so called Fifa ego be threatened by a video of a goal someone scored?

You don't need to play Fifa to know that Real aren't level with United/Chelsea/Barca/Inter etc

Lighten up? I'm as placid as they come. It's you that seems to be getting worked up with your wind ups and fabrications. I'll just leave you with your delusion.

Did you consider that the reason he chose Real Madrid was because he liked a bit of a challenge, whilst still having relatively decent team? Or do you just prefer Baca/Chelsea every game?
 
Don't worry RonaldoVII, go spank some 'noob' who doesn't know the good 5* teams as well you do - it will make you feel better.
Slow down with all your no-lifer noob gamer-speak for a minute, you're not on xbox live now. The irony is that you're annoyed by people who score cut-backs.

Are you into politics?

Nobody chose Real Madrid. He somehow deduced that I play with Real Madrid, thinking they were they best, (also deducing that I score with cut-backs all the time, quit when I concede, live my life through fifa and take it as serious as anything lol) by me calling the video lame. I had no problem who I played against when I played Fifa 10 as long as there wasn't a massive difference. You see the team you're up against before starting anything so it's no chore to back out. I played a lot with Udinese after using them against someone from on here and getting raped but played with United/Barca/Atleti/Juve if someone was using a top team. Majority used Barca/Inter/Chelsea so I stuck to playing people I know or club games until UT was released.

I don't have Xbox Live. I'm trying to get down to your level and speak the 24hr gamer lingo. Am I getting it wrong again? Is this like my terribly embarrassing Real Madrid faux pas?

Nevermind eh?

Get down to my level as clearly you can see my posts are full of them.

It's like you're reading something completely different. Don't think you've answered anything I've asked either.

UT is even worse.
