why is fifa so shit

EA

Because EA are greedy and lazy.

>not asking the really important questions
So can you dab in Fifa 17?
I will shill out and buy the game if you can.

Do EA actually pay for the rights to this awful music or do companies just donate it for free?

maybe

Yes

It isn't

>only a week

So first crash coming in today?

Is the journey good? I saw a few trailers and it looks pretty good but im not really sure if i should get it. I don't know much about soccer/football, and I've never really played fifa. Is it worth the buy?

Thankfully, getting tired of waiting for prices to drop to finally buy my teams

>ones to watch
>one potentially decent one in real life is Das It

>morata
>better at dribbling than mane

ikr, I assume the OTW card will also upgrade for his imminent winter upgrade if so that's the only one I would want

Didn't realise I was on futhead comments

Its getting a bit silly with all these new colors though. Almost 2k tier.

>Xbox update
>going slow as fuck

>Want to play the FUT Championship qualify
>Need a team over 75 chemistry
>Market is inflated as fuck
>Can't get good players.
Fuck this community

R1 triangle triangle or rb y y depending on which console. Only griezzman can hotline bling though unfortunately, just tap x or a for that 1

Why does that matter

So is the Alex Hunter card the position you play in the Journey?

Is it even worth it do draft? Even when I get 4 wins the money I get from the packs almost never exceeds 15000 coins.

If you win it every time its worth it. Especially at the beginning of the game.

I wasted over 100k on drafts in 16, got some OK players, mostly shit tier and contracts. Not worth the coins if you want a shit hot team tho.

Balotelli is gonna be one of them for sure, right?

Yeah whatever you pick the card ends up being

>big transfers
>nice
>player no one cares about anymore
I would be surprised

Time to make an Arsenal RW then.

Alright thanks

He's worth 8/9k and he's playing in a shit league and he has a shit card. People do cares a lot actually i think. And he's basically made for "One to watch" since he will probably get a lot of upgrades toward the year and a winter upgrade is a guaranteed. So?

Same stats for everyone?
The card looked like trash in the trailer

Still can't make another team

I just have my Serie A team and 60k coins because

>la liga strikers
>bundesliga strikers
>premier league prices
etc

Pato no good aye?

r8

Daily reminder

>the CANADIAN AUTIST named steven whos gamertag is StevenF

Got smacked by me last night 3-0 and then blocked me. What a pussy!

Is coin buying easy again? I want to know why I already see legends like Del Piero

Did the latter part really happen?

You can get del piero from a squad building challenge

Wow, is it a tough challenge? Does it have an experation date?

Just started playing Fifa. How the fuck do you score in this shitty game? I tap B and he just rolls it along the ground. I hold B for longer than a millisecond and he'll smash it over the bar!

It gets easier m8. I had the same problem. I would shoot like it was 16, slow roller to the GK. Im sure it cost me quite a few goals early on. But now im scoring blooters outside the box

Hold rb or lt to take a controlled shot

Is the FUT Daily Knockout Challenge worth it?

Still afraid to invite me and reveal your gamertag?
>Did the latter part really happen
No, it didn't

Any of you lads got the 9nations 7 leagues squad builder need help

I imagined, so did the del piero challenge expire? I don't have FIFA yet but it's a limited challenge that sucks

Kante is a fucking beast at CDM

futhead.com/17/squads/483912/

You'll need loyalty on all players to get the required chem, it's impossible without it. If you offline challenge the totw with these players in your starting 11 and quit at kick off (right after the ai passes the ball back, if you quit before that it won't count) you can get loyalty without affecting your record. Do it 10 times and you'll be able to complete the challenge.

How much money +- to get Giovinco?

It's a 20 match loan Del Piero only. Not worth it just for that. It gives some packs as well I think though.

No idea. Probably 60-80k I would think. You might be able to snag some deals on MLS players when people are ripping packs for the OTW cards.

Thanks m8

When do they go in packs? 6?

Totti is amazing god damn

Is he not too slow?
Was thinking of building this team for cheap.
With Totti at CF
futbin.com/17/squad/35263

How are you cunts affording these IFs and other good players when the game just came out yesterday?

>journey
>choose to be a CAM
>always get subbed on as a striker
>always either get 6 mins injury time or none at all

Because it didn't all over the world and I'm smashing the ever loving shit out of it

>yesterday

at least 1/3 of my 15 or so games have been people using that fucking disconnect cheat

You have to use him as a point through which your attack goes, not the attack itself. I play 4-1-2-1-2 with CMs and he's perfect in that formation, 2 strikers for him to feed. Nice shot on him too

>playing on pc
what do you expect?

squad building challenges are fucking top.

I've spent 45k on them, gotten back 13k coins and 252k worth of packs + 2 rare gold players.
From the packs I got Neuer, Rooney, Vardy and a bunch of players worth 5-15k.

Overall the players are worth 310-320k, so I've made ~270k profit with sbc

If you're talking about before going on loan, that's normal

i expect for all the hassle they go through with denuvo and origin to make it hacker-free

They have literally no anti-cheat, and never have.

Defending is fucking broken in this game, especially when facing an opponent making a run at a slightly diagonal angle

The amount of times I've faced someone with the team name Harambe....

Dicks out xDDD

>playing the journey as hull
>they sign di maria
This premier league money is some good shit

>15-20 hour, Mass Effect-inspired story mode called The Journey.

lol That's rich.

Have you got the 3 nations 2 leagues and 5 nations 3 leagues ones too pal?

The Journey is the epitome of storytelling in a sports game Japan, it really is the bomb Nagasaki-I mean diggity.

ITT:

CANADIAN AUTIST named steven with a gamertag of StevenF got btfo by me last night and is now denying it like a little pussy.

Thats pathetic steven, even for an autist such as yourself.

When are OTW released into packs? I have 2 50k packs here to try my luck

hurry the fuck up and announce the squad ea

how do I sell players on the transfer market? FUT noob and xbox one user

>David Luiz is a more effective defender than Mane as a forward....

Meme game. Meme ratings. Fucking Leaf developers ruined this game. Glad I stopped playing with FIFA 12.

Now onto PES

Select player, press x, list on transfer market

Aren't the ratings based on fans?

Has anyone given if Hernandez a shot yet. I mean 94 finish is rlly good for early game and only 60-70k?

what's the best bundes striker that doesn't cost a gorillion coins

using a 4 321 if it matters

they're out
Let it all burn

I reckon this lad could be pretty good

Ones to watch

I like how EA thought it was unfair goalkeepers could catch the ball in football so they just replaced them with amateur volleyball players

>7k
mate. he said doesnt cost a gorillion coins.

>dembele
>mustafi
>bailly

>7k
>a lot

I was looking at Hahn and Volland but they have h/h and m/h workrates

So does a otw card get a permanent upgrade each time they have an inform? So it's basically a top inform right now.

Do squad building challenges like that godly looking Giovinco expire?

>Do squad building challenges like that godly looking Giovinco expire?
There isn't a time limit on it so I'd imagine it doesn't.

Forget that first q I reread the explanation and got it.

Nice. EA making positive changes this year.

Except I've not found the game fun yet.

I was enjoying the squad building but when I got to the games and realised its all pace and OP crosses (basically fifa 14 with worse keepers) I got pretty pissed.

Milik B)

All the squad challenges are here. Good luck with the packs m8.

reddit.com/r/FIFA/comments/54s3ji/if_youre_doubting_the_value_of_the_squad_building/

>all the players are now price fixed
>check recent futhead squads for newer ones
>authors have pricefixed those players as well

God dam, I just want to do some challenges.

Ratings don't matter you retarded faggot
>tf tp

I modified a lot of those squads and put in players I already owned. Pretty much just look at where the links are and try to replicate them with cheaper players.

I'll just give it a week or two to start on them. Prices are shooting up for everyone cause release week everyones trying to get them done.

>Build a Man City team, England team and Premier League all with a minimum rating of 81 to get this
No thank you, EA

Try looking at what you have to do before posting and looking retarded

>89 DRI
>Sterling

That'll work. I didn't get anything in my reward packs for them anyways.

Someone on my timeline tweeted it and I just took their word for it. Seemed pretty believable tbf

Fuck this gay game, the penalty system is the most retarded shit ever, why fix what isn't broken? I had maybe 5 saves out of like 300 penalties in 16

Prem team is minimum 83

>Ben Arfa
Even Emry want him out already

Not a OTW but bretty good

>brother buys fifa 17 deluxe edition
>i take a picture of the case with a piece of paper with the date on it and tell EA live chat my game didnt have the code for the content
>they give me one

You got chinked.

Post teams so far

Everything good I do goes through Totti, hope one day he gets an inform

Nah, close enough

I bet you're the same americuck that was whining about how you can't defend too lmao

Looks good. Check out Asamoah if you need a solid CM. He's awesome.

Current squad I'm using while building coins from playing offline with coin boosts.

Have no idea what team I'm gonna build though as I only have 25k so far.

he's right though

Morata is somewhere between a benzema and a negredo, while possessing neither the ball skills or finishing of either

Defending is actually easier, taking penalties is what is shit you autistic Canadian.

Is there anyway to get a better team without having to hoard coins? I don't know how to get tons of coins and my team is not so good

Play games and use your coin boosts.

Mane literally disappears after november

Doing it as we speak, need that card

>I packed piguain yesterday

Name my ultimate team

Need a new name after using Diamond Dogs FC last year

Punished Allardyce

So with that bug that makes the offline games in ultimate team use the difficulty of your main setting, can you set it to amateur then play the hardest seasons and get lots of coins?

Inter ya nan

AHAHAHAHAH

xxInTeR uR nAn69xx

is this why I was getting my asshole rekt on amateur? Because it's world class otherwise.

Does money do anything in the journey?

why is this guy so overrated

It ruins you if you let it go to your head (see: Balotelli)

No idea but he sold for 120k so I won't complain.

I swear to Christ in the football league in my old job one of the utter mongoloids called their fantasy team "Inter Ya Mum".

Stopped manure finishing bottom half last season.

she was only XI

Have enough to replace Asamoah with Marchisio but they've got pretty much the exact same stats so I might just hold off. Asamoah is a tank.

What kits are you using?

underrated as fuck

no way I can get that sterling with those inflated prices.
I sold about 5 city players earlier too

> people pull fucking legends
> I get a 84 Garay
fuck sake

>one of the best looking kits in the game, Germany Home 2016 is only 200 coins
god damn.

>pull

He bought points for $200 and got him with the coins.

Mate, the best player I've got so far is Willy Caballero.

Well he is like 10k now

>Brasil

WHY ARE ALL MY PLAYERS' TOUCHES SO HEAVY AND CLUMSY REEEEEEEEEE

Also, is FUT always so tough at the beginning, when everyone is first buying the game? It took me two seasons to get out of division 10, and I just got the shit kicked out of me in Div 9, just barely getting enough points to remain in it.

I told myself I wouldn't do it, but I've already spent $7.50 on points to buy packs... gotten pretty much nothing for it.

Fucking EA and your sports crack.

Spend 3 euros on an autobuyer

Seasons needs time to settle, I've not touched it for that reason

Pls explain

auto buys players you tell it to, tell it to buy a player at x then automatically put it back on the list for slightly higher

does putting the accomplishments_online.ini file into your FIFA work for pro clubs like it did with previous versons?

Naming my team

Hill Valley FC
Hill Valley United
Gotham City FC
Valhalla FC
or Los Santos United

This game is even more shit than 16 was. Why do I keep buying them

Those are terrible, call it the Mogadishu Marauders

How about Upmybutt FC

>not interurnan

Just sold him for 2k, his lowest BIN was 2.1

Now I can buy a shitty gold player!

I don't find it that difficul at all yet, played 3 seasons with 2 titles and a promotion. It just depends on how long you've been playing fifa, as a lot comes down to habit.

>Garay

Well fuck you, I'll swap him for my Immobile I packed...yep the best fucking none loan player I've got so far is Ciro fucking Immobile

I've also gotten Payet and Mahrez

i've got Garay and a legend. life is good.

Hillsborough96 fc

I hate you

best pull has been IF son (Spurs) but I packed a few good gold cards.
Got martial in a upgrade pack

No

slippy 96ers

is there any risk at all of getting banned?

EA doesn't ban players

Yes they do.
If you buy coins, they ban you from accessing any EA game online.

Wow I've been garbage so far this FIFA

37-6-16 so far but I think I turned it around with my newer squad and I figured out how to abuse the shield mechanic. Back to 60% possession each game. Totti is wonderful in this game btw

don't worry stavi, i'm 32-5-14 because i tried to play old fifa on new fifa.

it just took some getting used to the different mechanics while using FUT as my learning ground instead of offline shit.

The Banter Brigade

Sorry lads in going to need to see some (yous)

1st game 4 goals. His shots inside the box pretty much always go in ( especially since people t using budget teams atm) since such high finish. Well worth the 62k so far I paid.

Spaff in my Bum FC

Can't argue with those dubs, my man

exactly my issue. I tried to build the play slowly and relied on RT+LT too much. Kids would just do that annoying one touch passing counter. I've starting to find a right medium


also peep my squad and gib feedback pls friendos. Verrati gets tired so quickly and it's very frustrating but his card is incredible. Would Pastore be a good CF? Love totti but I want to play someone else over Motta but he's there for chemistry. (decent card though desu)

going to find a way to get manolas 10 chem eventually desu

Karnezis is a greek 82 rated keeper from Udinese, that'll get Manolas to full chem.

I'll try him out to see how he is. Thx

just went back into work to unfuck a few forecasts that some idiots nearly deep sixed, but i'm using this to remind myself to respond to your post.

>not buying loan players on the catalogue to do this

You can't submit a squad if it has loan players in it, senpai.

I did for my first practice squad. Weird. I haven't tried it since. Is it worth trying out?

No

>not bringing on loan messi, aguero and tebow in the 80th minute

Fuck, Can't decide on a starter squad to build to replace my shitty bronze team.
Anyone have any suggestions for a PS4 team worth 20k?

I mean is squad building worth trying out Shen

Yes, they're really addictive and pretty fun. The ones where you need to buy club/league specific ones like the Sterling one are shit because all the players you need for them skyrocket in price, but the league/nation hybrid ones are good and the prizes you get are decent too.

is selling hall my cards to buy discard squads for upgrades viable?

Is anyone else disconnecting from EA servers very frequently?

I've got a draft I want to play but I daren't in case I just lose in the first round via disconnect

My internet is fine, it just drops ne out of the servers every 15 mins or so

Describe your experience so far in green texts. I'll go first.

>All my players have clumsy first touches

>shot blocked

This is so fucked up.

>daren't

Didn't realise we were still in the 1700s

Earlier, sorted itself out

Stay away from EPL cause of that squad challenge. Bundes looks cheap. I myself have spanish/serieA team.

Felt weird typing it out but didn't think anyone was enough of a cunt to point it out

same as usual

i play thoughtful passing football, trying different approaches

i get dispossessed in the final third, they ping pong it down the pitch then through ball it for a 1on1 with the keeper. doesnt even matter if i tackle them during this because the rebound will go straight into their path

i also really hate how when you're playing defensive your whole team piles into the box when you get a freekick at the halfway line. really leaves you open for counter. any way to stop this?

>grind offline drafts for packs
>very easy but boring
>play tournament game against full bronze against my bpl golds
>dab on em
>rage quit
Pretty good gMe

This so much. Its actually led to a lot of goals for me. But I know I will be one W away from title, leading by a goal 90', and have my opponent tie it on a deflection off the keeper.

Ended up going with a 10k Turkish team with Sneijder and Eto'o

You thought wrong

>somebody drew this
Y tho

dont you have to pay 15k to do draft

>Somebody saved it

Look at his flag

>grind offline drafts for packs

that's literally what i do.

do you use pro or world class or legendary?

This. It's pissing me off

>not just doing it on amateur cause difficulty doesnt affect the rewards

Shit, is it really? I was playing in semi pro and it was way harder than that

Rude senpai

Calcio or la liga, la liga may have a little more variety

>tfw just had to play the final 20 minutes of a game with 10 men because 4 of my players got injured

Thanks guys

Excuse me

What do I press to dab on em

sooooo tempted to sell in this inflated ass market.

Maybe, but in the real world he's a pretty decent player.

kys

the only OTW I would consider getting is Mane because realistically he has been playing out of his skin and will probably get a TOTW or 3, maybe even tomorrow

Got outbid and going to buy the Milik one instead for the reasons:
>He's already decent at 83 and can be used
>In good form
>Slow for now so he'll be cheapish

>tfw walk out from an sbc pack
>tfw thiago silva goes for 60k

Milik will for sure get a couple IFs and possibly a TOTS. He's on fire right now.

lel. I got a walkout 85 Dani Alves on Tuesday. Still beats the usual crap that's in packs though.

Definitely gonna buy him since he's only 70k and already has an 85 shooting stat

I had his base card on my starter squad and he was really good. Wouldn't be surprised if he finishes the year with 96 shooting and a 90 overall card.

Just picked it up for 75k. Would suggest you do it as well since you have the coin

>Sorry this listing has expired

Just bought Vieri so I've got like 3k now unfortunately, otherwise I would.

>Just bought Vieri
Literally why

He has 7 goals in 2 games right now. He's the perfect striker for this years game.

Yes but why a legend at this point in the game

I buy Vieri every year. He's my favourite fifa striker.

This team is amazing, but why do I feel like I could buy a team for a 10th of the price and still ruin people?

>just sold Jean Beausejour for 9000 coins

thank you squad builders

>tfw I've probably discarded him multiple times

Ok lads I need your help:

Nainggolan or Marchisio?

Marchisio

anyone else having trouble installing FIFA 17 on PC?
EA's shitty new Origin client stops the shit at 25%

This is the second time I'm downloading it again because my first install wouldn't open the game. Of course I did all the normal troubleshooting procedures.

These squad builder challenges are pretty good imo

>playing fifa on pc
lmao

>mfw they buy my Pjanic's at 48k, 2k below max bin, when yesterday I got him at 25k

it's exactly the same as on console

Is there even a way to not get loaned if you go to a big club?

lower pass, higher possession breh.

No. Story line is the same, regardless of performance, club(high profile or shit), or 'choices' in speeches.

>1-0

baka desu imo iirc

That's bullshit. I want to play for Arsenal or a big club, not fucking Aston Villa.

Villa are a big club lad. Won more European Cups than Arsenal.

you also need to win by at least two goals

Whoever does this challenge gets 10k xbox one

fucking REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

here's a cheapish squad for the Nation&League Ultimate challenge incase anyone wants it

only Mertesacker is more than around 1k/1.5k

sorry for the shit quality picture

also you need the Loyalty chem for all the players so just do the TOTW Offline Match glitch to get it

>living in a trailer in Montana with 56k internet

No but seriously. I downloaded the game in 2 hours. Quickest game DL I ever had.

Do it. I sold vardy for 48k, now i got coint to build a bretty good team

what the fuck is this cancer

Thanks m8. I will post one for league hybrid I made.

fine, here you go

>Using players on 7 chem
It's still absolute fucking cancer

it's for the squad building challenge you absolute retard

>Excusing your cancer
Cancer

it's some government bullshit. literally an hour away there is google fiber.
basically I live just within a county where the local government republican jews have set up a geographical monopoly, and there is only one available ISP.

Sold my epl squad. Have about 100k coins now.

Im going to build a cheap serie a hybrid with Jovetic.

Post your serie a teams

I want to add..
I made so much profit. 1 card I made 9k coins.

The prices will drop as soon as EA release the first player packs with no consumables.

Use totti instead as a false 9 433(5)

Nainggolan and Verrati with Thiago Motta as a CDM

I personally like El Pharaoh and Cuadrado as my wingers but that's up to you. Honestly totti in this game is ridiculous. Ball shield and let the wingers make their runs and then you just slide them in

That's not the point.
Why even bother then picking the team at the begining? Why even simulat a competition?
Want to play as a Premier League player? Nope, you get loaned to a FLC team.
What is even the point?

I highly recommend Ghoulam with Anchor, he's a monster

also he has those based giant throws

>clear ball
>it somehow curves so much it turns back towards my goal
>gk just stands still watching it bounce in over his head
What is this shit

If you wanna play for a Prem team just play a virtual pro career mode.
Its story building, whether its a shit story or not.

>waaaaah why is this story mode based around a story!!!!!!

literally who can stop me, huh?

>2 hours

LOL

brehs i'm about to cave and buy another shitty fucking fifa game for the millionth year in a row

talk me out of it. does it suck again? is it still aggravatingly full of bullshit?

It's better than 16, however, you need to relearn some things.

For example, shielding the ball (L2 or LT) is super important this year.

Obvious upgrades?
I've started playing MUH POSESSION and winning most games with like 65% posession, Only just got to Div 8 though, assume I'm still vsing scrubs since all the good people have played non-stop.

What players should I try? I like this formation but open to new ideas

shit this makes me want to buy it more. i hated 16, only put like 500 hours into it

as said, get that little rat down at lb

what is teh TOTW offline glitch?

I just installed this game on origin and when i started it up, this fucking game taunts me by only showing up in my task manager while the window is nowhere to be seen. Have any of you had this problem and how did you fix it? 2nd time i reinstalled and it still happened.

Just let go and surprise yourself

Its too one dimensional a he is too slow.

I play a 433(2) and my striker is well balanced. Total football for me. I like having the option to make runs as well as hold it up.

basically (on xbone at least, I'm not 100% how to replicate it on PC/PS4 but I imagine it will work like this)

>start the ToTW challenge where you play the ToTW offline
>allow the computer to kick off
>press the guide button on your controller
>press start whilst highlighting Fifa
>go on Quit
>load it back up and you will have a game played for the players in that team
>do this 10 times and you can get Loyalty chem for the players, which is needed for some Squad Builders
>your record will be unaffected

it's tedious but still better than getting loyalty the normal way

I'm a bit disappointed this is my first walkout.

Has anyone used him this year?

He's always been awful for me.

I guess it can be an excuse to build a Serie A team.

what's a walkout

had him on loan for 8 games, he was okay

I then went back to Mirante who has done pretty much the same, haven't noticed a difference really

what the screenshot shows, when you open the pack high rater players walk out from behind the card

>tfw I got an 88 player
>skipped it
i want to see a walkout :'(

Well fuck me, two packs later and he pops out.

I guess I'm really building that Serie A squad now lol

>everyone packin Aguero, De Gay, Buffon
>I open pack
>its another Cleverley

I swear to god half these posts are made by fifa shills tricking me into buying packs

how is naldo this year? I usually don't like h/m cbs

He's not too slow you shitter

what do lads, how do I make this into something

THIS SHIT HAS BEEN DOWNLOADING SINCE 12 PM

damn, chem styles are really neat

filtered

Reminder to buy a one to watch Milik asap

really tempted to throw a bunch of money away to get that sterling card, do I do it?

need cheap serie A cm and can't decide on who.

Options are: Jorginho, Allan, Kondogbia, Baselli Donsah, and Badu.

ASAMOAHH

Not worth it for an untradeable card

I'll most likely be sticking with a bpl team and have a second team of other leagues for fitness. + it's always nice to have special cards once they're out of packs and intradeable

too expensive. I have very little coin. The ones I listed are all under 2k

He's good mane and not expensive. Donsah is pretty based too. Serie A ramires

>wanyama

>10/10

love that big dickked man.

I have a EPL squad its good but not expensive cost about 30k is it worth going into serie A like you lot?

>tfw you dab on em and they dab on you
That purple Sterling is OP btw

How do I free kick in this shit?

controller motion controls, or the touch function on the ps4 controler

You get more value, that's for sure. This team cost me about 30k. About 9-10k of that was from chemistry cards.

>putting a hunter card on valero
wew

5 (five) injured players in 2 matches

1 of which came on for an injured player and got injured that same game...

>this is perfectly fine for some of you

His only average stats are the physical ones. He's stacked everywhere else.

>all the injured players are weak manlets

seems about right

but you dont get to play with da lads.

i want to have a bit of fun with dele alli, ect

How much does that SBC Sterling cost to get, roughly?

I don't buy packs but would love to actually get my hands on some ""free"" in forms this year

>MMMMUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Probably 100k ish easily

Eder is GOAT in 17 boys

>81

how is fifa so SHIT at rating players?

Son is similarly OP

Does anyone mind making me a 150k squad on ps4?

>spend my money for me
>americucks

Yup

mate, you can do it offline.

I wasted all my money (30k) on a shit bundesliga team. Whats a good player to make money on?

The ones you've heard of.

>shit team
>30k
How

i'm shit at this game and an idiot. what's your team?

pretty easy famiglila

That team cost me 30k ish but they'll be cheaper now with everyone tearing open packs

>he does the dab celebration not knowing what it is
>he has never dabbed before

IM TALKING ABOUT AUSSIES ONLY HERE. WE DONT HAVE WAX HERE GET FUCKED.

Dabbing didn't come from smoking wax noob

DAB ON EM

Okay, think I have an okay team.
futbin.com/17/squad/39279

Opinions? Will probably swap Lens for Depay when he gets cheaper, and get some better centre backs.

What formation and players would you recommend to build a parked train hoofball team? Coins really isn't an issue.

How are you so poor? Depay is only 6k

He's 10k on PS4. and I've literally just started Ultimate Team, I have 9k total and a full bronze starter team.

im in shock at just how bad this game is

So how do I start making coins from trading? I have 15k and I have fuck all knowledge on how to trade.

On PS4 btw.

THIS GAME IS SO FUCKING BAD AND BROKEN, IM GOING TO OPEN SOME PACKS!

You don't need to trade, use themselves 1k boosts and a simple discard value team to earn coins. You will get up to like div 5 before the better teams rape you so switch to single player and go up to div 1 (y)

Literally no packs opened and just divisions played and this is my team so far. Did some pre release web app trading also, rate squad lads.

FIFA 16 killed UT for me.

Have they improved it this year, or is it still the same bullshit pace abuse and le zig zag and cut inside with agile winger that make up 90% of goals?

I have given up on >la liga, >premier league and >bundes because they're all shitters

I'll just start using a variety of these two teams rather than two seperate teams fully, just replacing injured players/tired players as they come

I might save for Pjanic or Higuain, not sure yet,
Anyone used Bacca?

It's pace abuse as always, headers and finess is OP and don't forget the defenders are 10x stupid. Ball comes in, defender runs past it and leaves the area clear for striker to put into open net, when you pass they do it 3 seconds later.

The ball was in my six yard, my defender ignores it and walked to the side and his striker scored... This game is so fucking broken!!!!!

the gameplay is fucking awful, so many errors, theyve somehow managed to out do fifa 16 in shiteness

Pace is always going to be important in UT, but it doesn't seem to be as overpowered as it was in previous years. Short, quick passes is what rips apart defenses.

Bacca is pretty good.

>Saul goes for 1.6k in ps4
>950 on xbone


Fucking semen slurpers.

Stupid Harambe defending is what tears defences apart, the game is 10x worse than FIFA 16.

and FIFA 16 was BAD

Yo dudes. How do you ask for additional funds in career mode ?

Defending in this game is more about shape than having individual defenders charging at people. I calmed down on defense and I'm hardly giving up goals now. I really never switch to my CBs until people are in the box.

I got Aguero, Ribery and a few others in the 2 rare player pack from doing the gold upgrade squad builder challenge. My highest rated player in a normal pack was Xhaka.

This tbf. I've only conceded more than one goal in a game twice in 26 games.

Might play the journey Pmsl

its actually pretty fun
[spoiler]unless you're one of those only play online, playing the AI is boring guys in which case go fuck yourself [/spoiler]

The St Etiene Lyon challenge actually pays out pretty well.

3 packs and all I had to pay out was 2k for a shitty CB called Pogba

>try buying some gold BPL players and selling them for 200-300 coins higher
>spent 10k
>sold players for 11k
ive made 1k from an hour of work

Fifa tax 5% as well lol, it's made so you need to buy coins.

>500 fifa ponts for £3.99
>750 fifa points for £6.14

Nice one EA.

Flipping players isn't worth the effort, profit is too small. With the right players you can usually put a position change on them and then flip for a decent profit. ST to CAM is usually the best route.

EA is straight up cancer. I hate myself for putting money in their pockets.

Fuck I love the draft

>Spent £30 on packs
>Got fuck all good and now have no motivation to play FUT

its not worth it

can someone tell me which autobuyer to use and how to use it

make me a team with de rossi, pirlo, giovinci, and totti

futbot manager

>totti and pirlo
are you trying to make the slowest team possible?

futbin.com/17/squad/40230
Just throw any Serie A defence in there.

So what formation is everyone using? Trying to crack the 4-3-3 (with CAM) and it's horrible. Wingers are pretty much useless you plan to sweat. Midfielders just watch as you get skipped past and it's impossible to control the defense now. Really not liking this game

False 9 has been working pretty well for me, gonna try the 433(2) later and see if that's any good.

>Tfw pack an extinct kit
Looks good too I'll make it active if it doesn't sell

Which one is it?

3 euros for 6 days? lame

Wingers are absolute memes this year desu

4-1-2-1-2 (2) or 4-3-1-2 with attacking fullbacks I think work best

...

What are offline draft rewards like this year? Still as shit as last year?

Won't you get banned for that though?

Nvm the app couldn't compare price of consumables.
Packed fernandino though so that's 20k.
It was the Rayo vallencano black/pink so I thought it was in demand

Before the release I was getting 2x7.5k packs and a jumbo pack now I get a 5k pack and a jumbo pack still better value it's incredibly boring though

the game feels horribly sluggish and unresponsive

tell me what I'm doing wrong

not being gay :DDDDDDDDDDD

being gay :DDDDDDDDDDD

Dicks out for harambe xdxd

full backs, stay back or always overlap?

depends on formation imo

found a new skill move

lel

One balanced one stay back. You need to overload sometimes.

You can put them both on stay back and manually trigger them if you are worried.

Who here has his FIFA experience fucked up most ?

Here's my submission:

> Work 2 years to master skill moves since FIFA 12, 13 and 15 they were GOAT

FIFA 17 has useless skills which are inefficient in the field, lack explosiveness and take longer time to input.

Dragbacks ? Fuck that, useless now. Stop the ball with L1 ? Nope, now it's this useless R2 mid sprint which you can't combo into a dragback. We have put Skill Moves in the game and now we do everything we can to make them useless. Tight marketing and decision making from us.

> Enjoy building silver and bronze teams because you have to create something interesting to bring the best from each league

Lol fuck you Nigger, no more bronze or silver tournaments for you, enjoy sorting by pace every league and pick the most affordable gold player in it.

As for right now, I feel like they took everything out from what I enjoy. I'm gonna play a few more games but I think I can safely say that I'm done with fifa (unless clubs is fun).

I activated my coin boost but im not getting extra coins wtf

Man all you do is build pacewhore silver squads and cross anyway. You only used two skill moves.


Anyway everything you said is right, but you are a faggot for sure.

why am i so bad at defending this year

all the goals i let in come from opposition players running at me causing my defenders to sperg out

what are you supposed to do in this situation?

>mad because shit he's done for years no longer works

Ever thought its you that is the faggot who is simply upset they are trying to make the game different?

>Next Gen game
>There is still no way to stop your CDM from pushing forward into the attack

Listen here u little shits

How do I dab on em

R1+ Triangle + Triangle
RB + Y + Y

pls make me a second team, needs to be good

same tbqh fám

haven't figured it out yet

Same. My defenders just sort of run up to the player with the ball, brush him slightly then run past him.

>You get UT packs from the journey
Nice

What do you get other than loan packs and the Hunter card?

nothing
unless u give a shit about Originâ„¢ Pointsâ„¢

>playing on PC
what about sensible people

>playing on a platform with rampant cheating
lmao

>paying to play online
doesnt sound sensible to me

>playing on a platform that has a huge number of cheaters who just force a win everytime

>not cheating
if you cant beat them, join them

>stoop to their level
what are you, 12?

>not paying 1300 coins for the GOAT

Your loss desu

Stop taking pictures of your screen you fucking retard

is this game pace oriented?

Yes, pace is OP and defenders and CDMs are retarded

>having some kind of capture card setup like a nerd

>He doesn't know how to take a screenshot and then save it from xboxdvr.com
You are genuinely autsistic

says the guy who does all this just to post screenshots on Cred Forums that nobody cares about LOL

rused :^)

thanks

fifa 16 is weird, it's all about tackling like a complete retard with your whole team. had 50 games, and most guys have at least 35 tackles while I have only 4-5

Please use a trip so we can all filter your shit low quality posts

I think they're aimed at people who have the players already in their club. they also give packs out and coins for individual ones

Post your teams. Need inspiration

Never stop trolling EA, never stop

At this point i just stop the run and don't shoot then try to play it back around

Yeah actually but not sure why it's a handout

this game is literally all about counter attacks, if you try to pass it around nothing ever opens up

I don't speak to shitskins.

I'm filtering you monkey.

t. Jamal Harambe

So what's the GOAT formations this year?

Looking to build one around Bacca, just got him from a gold upgrade SBC

I'm liking the narrow formations, 4312 and 41212 (2)

>It's fucking de rossi making the run

i feel your pain, not de rossi but

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

4-4-1-1 is really solid, especially with strong CMs. It's great at clogging up the midfield and keeping possession.

Can someone help me link my PS4 fut to the mobile app? Do I need to do it through the web app first or can I go straight to the mobile?

Just sign into the app and it should load straight away.
Try signing into the Webapp first, to make sure it recognises your account.

>Every single gold nonrare player has a bid on it for about 3 pages of that player as people are en-masse completing the gold squad builder

This can't be a good thing

r8

>3 red links
I feel ill

Yep, that's an Italian squad alright

What lower rated player has been consistently good for you over different fifas? like 82 and lower?

Nkoulou has been one of my favourite defenders since 2012, he's always been a rock at the back.

Jeremy Menez
Last year he was a boss for me in my Serie A team
3 years ago he was my best winger in my Ligue 1 team to feed Aubemeyang

I've got Nkoulou as the GOAT defender and Menez up front in my starter team.
They're both great, but the rest of the team is pretty shocking.

Kevin Mirallas

433(?) or 4231(1/2)?

about to start building a squad

juan angel albin

he scored free kicks for fun when he was still a gold

4411

isn't that similar to 4231(2)? but ok will go with that

>Play a guy with that overused band kit, team name banter FC
>Scores immediately from a chipped through ball and hits the dab
>I score 2 immediately after, dab on both of them
>Guy gets angrier and angrier as game goes on, constant slides and fouls
>Beat him 5-1
>Dabbed every fucking time

So satisfying

I've used both pretty extensively and 4411 is much better. Make sure you have big physical CMs.

It is, but your midfield will push higher. Allowing for more possession based football in the midfield.

>coutinho is 40k

I've got 70k coins just from SBC but I don't like buying good players because I feel more under pressure to win

Injuries were a mistake

I have enough coins to build this team to replace my ligue un team with Nkoulou

Thoughts? It's 35k on PS4.

>hes slide tackling so that must mean hes angry

Now thats autsim.

If he isn't too expensive you should get Lukaku instead of Benteke. Dude is a fucking tank for me

Benteke is 3k
Lukaku is 35k

Kek, glad I packed him then

Might do some of those gold upgrades.

>tfw qualified for weekend league on first try.
40 games is a lot though.

Kroos is fucking amazing this year.

The eaids is stronger than ever this year

Would love this to be the same poster

>Too shit to qualify for the Futchampions

Fug

Just pretend it is

Higuain was amazing in my draft. Yes the only player so far where I've really thought "wow". I have 100k, but I'm guessing prices will drop drastically once those black cards go, who is a good interim striker? I currently have no squad so any league.

I've completed all of the times squadbuilder challenges but sterling and the token one so I can't make any more money, but I'm thinking of swapping all my golds for rates. Should I do that or save them?

Holy fuck this is such a mess, I'm so tired.

Save them

i made some headway on this

youtube.com/watch?v=pBMnjUOJcbw

i followed what this guy says and won 4 on the trot

>start "the journey"
>started club CP
>get loaned out immediately to championship
>dominate
>get called up winter
>do well and win FA cup
>get a hunter UT card at RW

WTF thats pretty cool. Anyone know anything about this if you can increase stats at all during hunters season?

try playing it again and you might get higher stats

Nope, the stats are the same no matter what you do. How long does it take to get the card? I want it but I don't feel like putting in 10 hours into that shit mode.

Yeah but what can i do to make his stats better other than the training

I went through the whole season, 38 matches with CP.

Can I just get sent off and end the games early?

Play like shit and you won't even get started/on the bench

Nice. Guess I'll do that then.

You have to maintain a high form to get starting 11 spot, otherwise you ride the bench and Hunter doesnt grow at all. I think im going to try it again and get him above 80. I didnt take the training and gameplay seriously. Might even play at pro or semi pro to boost how productive he is.

the more you score and assist, the higher your stats will be. You need to play it again, and try to do better.

the only question i have is does difficulty level affect stats?

The FUT card stats will be 75 no matter what.

Are you sure about that? How do you know?

Because I've seen about 30 different pictures of the card and they all have the same stats.

>2-0 up in the 78th minute of the Futchampions
>Game finishes with me losing 3-2

Fuck

not sure, but I would imagine so.

Was doing SBCs but came off for tonight as prices are getting retarded. Did the 11 nationalities 100 chem one buying gold prem players for about 400 coins each. Now they're all selling for like 1k each.

You know this game made it impossible for that to happen if you have any sense right?

Take ball down, wing after passing it around defense for a bit. Hold LT and move side to side. No defender could get the ball from you. Let time run out.

MOST DANGEROUS LEAD

I got 250k coins and I play with an 80 rates squad too. I like the challenge.
