Multiplat FIFA 14

Looks ...um...interesting, even good...

I've always liked the idea of making loyalty count toward chemistry, build your team and they improve the more they play together. Removing morale and formation restrictions looks good. Better searches...singles matches...more seasons...pretty much everything asked for (even though in some cases they are just older features brought back).

 

[Cruyff14]

I never liked UT because your players had "contracts." If you get them, that should be that.

Well Why the hell did you remove them!!

Well Why the hell did you remove them!!

Wasn't it to do with the match-making system and people stacking their benches with low rated bronze players to be matched against lower rated teams and dominate?

Falcao 90. <3

Will still be useless as pace seems to be the be-all end-all.

Meh, I've scored 81 goals in 61 games online with 88 rated Falcao.

 

[Cruyff14]

They need to fix the pace thing. Technical players IE Xavi, Pirlo etc need to be much more powerful in the game.

And for heck sake, fix the ****ing menus and the ****ing loading times and the ref getting in the way.

 

[Super Hans]

Vidal only 85 .

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Mata only 86 is a joke, especially when Silva is 88 and ****ing Pique is still about 5 points too high.

New changes sound great, love the loyalty option, especially as I have players that have more than 300 games with each other.

However, the UI looks like shit!

FIFA said on their twitter that the ratings that we say aren't final. But who knows.

So ****ing true. Watching my brother play with England and starting Walcott, Lennon, Defoe, Agbonlahor and just running straight by players is ridiculous.

Slowest menu's ever.

I don't mind refs getting in the way too much.

The game takes so long to start up as well, it's infuriating.

Nah ref gets in the way heaps for me, I lose my shit every time.

I understand they're trying to make it realistic, but it's not supposed to happen

They might as well add in diving and intentional handballs

 

[Cruyff14]

Diving would be cool, although I get why they don't have it.

Fixing the handball issue is very hard IMO. I'm really not sure how they'd do it though I'm just glad it's an adjustable option. I tried to play with handball on for that added realism but the fact that any contact with the arm inside the box is a penalty became too frustrating. So easy to get one via a cross or shot when you're only a few feet away from your opponent. Maybe if it was say, more than 10m and not a crowded penalty area? Possible. Maybe set some parameters you can adjust like customising camera angles.

Diving would be cool, although I get why they don't have it.

Diving's an interesting one. I hate diving in general but again for added realism, I'd like it if it was introduced provided that it workable in the game. In PES it was pretty much automatically a YC and close to impossible to actually con the ref.. think I did it about three or four times in a good 200+ attempts. There was probably a way to improve your luck but I never came across one.

I loved the handball option in FIFA 12. I fluked my way through to the Euro League Final with Blackburn, team full of injury and suspension. Just kept cannoning shots into the penalty area, my only two goals were penalties from handballs. I then went on to win on penalties, felt like I was a hacker or something.

Just turn it off for penalties. There is that option.

Yes! I remember the This is Football games had it, auto red card if you failed, which was most of the time.

Yeah I don't think I ever got away with it.

I don't remember if it was in this or PES, but a mate kept doing it against me and I was getting booked every time. I was not happy.

Forgot about that option. Apart from against mates, I don't play FIFA offline these days really. Haven't gotten into manager modes for some reason and playing against CPU in general is terrible. Always goes into some god mode once you take the lead.. 13 is the first FIFA I've struggled on legendary.

Used to absolutely abuse This Is Football 2002 back in the day. L1 for diving wasnt it? My mate and I would have an absolutely brilliant time doing stupid dives and getting away with it
