Fifa 12

[DB.]

Anyone know of any good signings to make in the career?

Playing with Birmingham, so average players are about 71-74.

Managed to get a GK rated 77, for free + £2000 a week, so a real bargain. (Free agent). Need to bulk the squad up a bit more in midfield though but have a shite budget"!

 

[nobblebonce]

is the ultimate team mode any good, unsure whther to get special edition or just standard, whats the deal with ultimate team, also how much does each pack cost.

 

[Jordi17]

Sounds like you're blind

how? i cant even get a goal ffs, played three times with chelsea then newcaslte then chels again and drew 0-0 and couldnt tackle the opponents

 

[Philip.]

Ultimate team is always good at first, but I get bored of it after a while every year after about an hour or two, lol.

LOL Jordi

 

[Jordi17]

also are the commentators just random on each game? or can they be set a certain pair

 

[iain187]

I assume that leaderboard stuff on the select button is the new equivalent of lounge mode


Not being able to see the other persons team in online seasons is poo... Real, Real, Real, Chelsea, Barca, Real, Real...zzzzzzzz

 

[Darren S]

Out for the iPhone now as well - 1GB in size!!!

D.

 

[chriscummins7]

I love that the stupidly dramatic break dancing physics engine is still there. Hilarious!

Online is too easy ATM, people just can't defend It's laughable. The AI is rediculously boring as they just keep the ball. Really annoying!

Haven't done any Head to Head yet but I expected this to be the case - if you choose a 3* team it should match you with a similarly ranked 3* team.

Think i'll be using PUFC for my head to head games.

You aren't good enough, there's nothing wrong with the game

What's that mate? Do you just mean online?

 

[Jordi17]

ha ye course not i was s**t hot on the last one but this is winding me up big style, they dont tackle just stand there and watch

what about the commentators can they be selected? played 3 like i said and it alternates to one another

CHEIK man is good on it mind you, as is MATA, he is great player

 

[Philip.]

Why do YOU use capitals for footballer NAMES?

Nothing wrong with the game mate, YOU'RE not good enough.

I think you can turn off Townsend, not sure if you can select them

By default, Tyldesley and Townsend are the tournament commentary team, Tyler and Smith are league

 

[Scutch]

I would whole heartedly recommend using these settings via the sliders:

USER:
Sprint 55
Acceleration 55
Pass Speed 60
Injury Frequency 55
Positioning: Run Frequency 70
Power Bar 62

CPU
Sprint 55
Acceleration 55
Shot Error 55
Pass Error 63
Pass speed 55
Injury Frequency 55
Injury Severity 54
Positioning: Run Frequency 70
Positioning: Line Width 55
Positioning: Fullback Positioning 55

Really does make for a great game.

That's playing on Professional or World Class on Slow.

 

[Revels]

On slow?

I used to have respect for you.

 

[Cookie]

I don't like the crossing now

No matter how hard I try, 9/10 crosses end up in row Z behind the f**king goal

 

[Joe#]

So unrealistic this game.

Just played shity and Tevez came of the bench:S

 

[danh90]

Just played it think its a lot harder than 11 take some getting used to defending going to be online again monday so will play a few of you

 

[Scutch]

On slow?

I used to have respect for you.

Slow is awesome. Really nice pace to it all.

 

[Kris86]

it have manager mode again?

 

[chriscummins7]

I didn't even realise there was a 'slow'...

just thought it was normal or fast!

So far, not too bad. Online record of 10-0-2 (W-D-L).

 

[Scutch]

it have manager mode again?

Yup. Much improved too.

 

[Josh220]

I'm having some problems with manager mode.

It's started crashing. Also when I load my game up it's forgotten all the players I've signed. They've vanished!

 

[cafcross]

I'm getting so frustrated with this.

I'm playing as Charlton on world class, and Yeovil are passing it around as if they're Barcelona, every pass splits my defence and they seem to have infinite stamina and out run and out muscle all of my players.

 

[chriscummins7]

aye. AI is a bit annoying, the odd mistake would be nice.

 

[Scutch]

Alter the sliders like I've said. Put the AI passing error and shot accuracy error up.

Make it more realistic.

 

[cafcross]

Where did you get those slider numbers from Scutch? Or did you make them up yourself?

 

[Harpham]

Just bought this today on my way home from a week away.

Defending is going to take some getting used to... Although, I have seen the fun of Pro Clubs finally with a few mates.

 

[Cookie]

They have properly ramped up the difficulty this year, which is nice

I've been struggling on Professional

 

[cafcross]

EVERY shot is blocked by the defence. ARGHHHHHH

 

[Cookie]

Just got Casillas and Neymar in 2 different packs

 

[Scutch]

Where did you get those slider numbers from Scutch? Or did you make them up yourself?

Someone posted them on the FIFA board as the preferred adjustments.

 

[Cookie]

I'm s**t online :/

One goal in 4 games, average loss of 5-0

 

[Adamio]

I've been playing Manager Mode with Crawley on World Class, it's not going well !

I've scored a few and had a few very close games but no wins so far.

 

[Cookie]

Close to killing myself

How could I be this bad at Fifa /o\

 

[iain187]

Yesterday I was playing real Madrid every game online and getting battered... Earlier I played a variety of teams and won 5 on the bounce.

I guess it's the difference between the season pass people practising all week vs people who went the shop this afternoon

The matchmaking is horseshit, I've not played one person yet who's even near the same level as me

 

[Pete Nov]

Most annoying thing about the game is the constant collisions, and no fouls being awarded, when clearly it is obstruction.

 

[Birdie*]

The ai defence on clubs is stupidly good and strong vs our average vp's abd the VP gk's are still unbeatable but you can't see if they have one till you get into the game! Not played anything serious offline to comment only used for boosting my pro..
