Starting to dominate a little too much I think a bump in difficulty is in order. Won't matter, even if I get good at World Class............. the second I get to play online I'm going to be schooled so bad lol.

whats the online strategy? seems from what ive seen, its just run thru the middle tiki taka style and minimal air balls?

Back in the old days it was a lot of through balls. And everyone was either Real Madrid or Barcelona. I enjoy still going on runs from one end of the pitch to the other (like the old school Fifa's in the 90's and mid/late 00's) against the AI. I usually do a lot of zig-zag passing to move the ball closer to goal.

I don't quit, even if I am down 5 - 0 before the first half ends I stick around and keep trying lol.

I like how Marcus Rashford is an authenticity consultant in the Journey.

Bought $30 worth of points.. got oscar and Felani and Tiote as my only 3 rare players.
Was happy with oscar but he only goes for 5k.

Will prices keep rising or should i sell everything right away?

lol'z, $30 is nothing... people are spending 20x that and still getting nothing.

Anybody found any gems to sign in career mode?

In past Fifa's it used to take awhile to play in any weather conditions other than sunshine.

In Fifa 17 the only game that I have played in crystal clear conditions was the intro F/A cup final at the start. Every other game has been wet weather lol. Guess I picked the wrong home ground for my club in career.

 

[Cruyff14]

Yep, played it for I guess 2 and a half hours.

Good stuff.

Sign anybody of note?

Tielemans.

Fellaini is a beast (in UT).

Into div 7 with a 13-1-5 record so far. Courtois in one my first packs was a god send, he is a jet. Have picked up Vertonghen and Kompany as CB's, good luck scoring

Wish the Journey was a little less scripted

brb average more than a goal per 90 minutes
brb average an assist per 90
brb always 8.0+ despite rarely starting a game
brb sorry lad ye shite, we have to send you somewhere else

hmm....doing journey still and dear me, your teammates make some absolutely horrible crosses and shots.
I set up I think Ozil who kicked it out for a throw-in, which was taken relatively close to the halfway line (it was BEYOND bad)
Elneny one game did the most horrendous volley and find him bad in general to play with, some of the team selections are strange (you could say the same about choosing me though )
The crosses seem just as poor as well.
The concept is cool but teammates are pretty hit and miss. Passing isn't too bad, but I've noticed that a lot of players are just hoofing the ball out (one time I swear out of the stadium) in strange positions. I swear the ball has been out a few times but players just kept on going.

Just had a my goal keeper red carded.. i had zero control over what webt down. Was a legitimate red tho so i wasnt to pissed. Seems like we will have to take a keep in on the pine in 17.

Going for 6 wins in a row against Wellington. This coincided with me experimenting with the squad and playing players I hadn't used in the previous matches. Huge mistake, Wellington scored early, I couldn't get momentum until late in the first half so I was struggling to mount a challenge. Second half much better, controlled the ball (would eventually finish with 85% possession), took shot after shot, header after header... I either just missed or it was blocked very well.

It wasn't until the 89th minute where I got lucky and scored. 3 minutes of extra time after the 90th wasn't enough to try and get the winning goal, the cpu kept playing keepings off. First draw for the season, still 5 points ahead of second spot.

Sign anybody of note?

Not really, doing a Portsmouth career so nobody really notable.

Does anyone actually like the new cornering system?

Does anyone actually like the new cornering system?

Or penalties for that matter.

 

[Xtreme]

Or penalties for that matter.

First penalty shot I sprayed it and it trickled to the left lol.

Only took 3 attempts before I scored from a corner. Technically did it my first go but it was the cpu that headbutted it in.

 

[Notorious_29]

Yeah penalties 100%. Corners im starting to get used to, starting to nail a few with my cb's.

Does anyone else think it feels arcade like? It's way faster than previous years.
