Fifa 13

[matt_vtr_15a]

So who has played on it then?

I went and lined up for the first time in my life, got there for 11.30pm and was sat at home playing my first game at 12.15am!!

Love it, I ended up getting a bit carried away and played all night until 7.00am with a few mates online until it was time for work!!

Can't wait to get back on it, got a sick ultimate team already!!

Is it just me or does your career mode virtual pro not carry over onto online pro clubs anymore?

I was quite annoyed as I spent a good hour making him half decent for online play and then realise you have to gain those accomplishments online for clubs... (I imagine to prevent boosting etc.)

[Brettles1986]

Arrived at my door by the home I got home from work yesterday.

Awesome game tbh and as I have gone from FIFA 11 to 13 i'm not all that good as can be expected I guess.

Feel free to add me and have a game this weekend.

I'll add you when I get home later mate... I'm not brilliant on it.. I just love clubs and opening gold packs on FUT lol :y:

[GolfJay]

Currentlt trying to convince my gf to buy me this on her way home haha

[AzzAW93]

ive got it and yeah you have a online and a offline pro.
i think theres also a bug where it dosnt save your accomplishments and there a bit messed up but other than that its good

someone make a saxp club?

[holdawayt]

You are all awful human beings

[GolfJay]

You are all awful human beings

What are you doing out of your room? Today isnt the day they should be letting you out. Now back on your box!

[holdawayt]

In the office - it's a quiet day and all the fools are talking about Fifa. I want to break their faces.

[imDan]

Same shit diffrent year.

Trololol.

[GolfJay]

The missus has caved in and got me Fifa! Good bye life, it was nice knowing you!

[smiith]

Got it today, played 3 games, won 2.. Few little issues.. One is the ref wearing the same colour as the opposite team in all 3 games, pissed me off abit, because it cocks up passes, trying to dodge him thinking he is one of their players!

The other is on the odd 1st touch, il be running onto the ball, and he will just belt it forward with his foot, miles away.. like asif he was running and didnt see the ball..

Other than that, its pretty awesome

The only way I have figured out to pre empt the first touch thing is.. If you have the space to let go of the sprint trigger and hold the left skill trigger as you receive the ball.. Obviously it's slower and you don't take it in your stride but yeah..

[smiith]

aye, just when your trying to run onto it, when you have a defender on you, abit of a bugger!

[GolfJay]

Anyone having alot of connection issues?

All I get is that the other player has left, every game I try to get into.

[smiith]

I keep getting when i 1st turn it on, that i try to join twice, then it says iv disconnected from EA servers, then i have to go to home, then sign into live again, then start the game again and it works.. But i think thats my new router because 12 did it too..


This 1st touch thing is pissing me right off.. I will pass the ball, simple pass, try to turn and run, and it will just hit my foot and trickle away to my opponent.. at least 50% of passes it happens..

Also, when im running for the ball.. there must be a new button that pushes my player off.. Because even when im running Hazard or Mata, 2 pretty quick players, against someone big, and not silly fast, like kompany, i just get pushed off the ball, they get infront, and i have to go their speed to the ball and fight for it..

Plus theres when im running with the ball, they tackle from behind, and i don't get as much as a free kick, even though im on the floor, and lose the ball!

Needs some serious updates!

[GolfJay]

Whos up for making a team? Seeing as you ignorant bastards never accept invites

[AzzAW93]

I said above ill join a club, I'm on xbox tho?

[GolfJay]

Arent we all? This is the Xbox section lol

All this to be honest!
Played online against my brother, bayern versus barca
Messi never got away from me....
But puyol could keep up with ribery/robben
And the first touch, well you might as well just pass to them and hope they mess up to get possession again!
And as for getting fouls/pushed around, even with 'strict 60%' ref, I'm still left on the floor whilst play goes on!!

[GolfJay]

Im not having any of these issues to be honest. Although saying that, I am obly using bronze cards in UT

[smiith]

I only play online seasons with clubs..

Seems to be silly today, playing as Chelsea, against man united.. Ferdinand can keep up with mata, torres, and hazard..

And when i tackle, the ball seems to always go to them, i run a player onto the ball, they stick a foot out, and they just keep it at their feet..

Iv been promoted and won the cup every season so far, but still, the loses for silly things, are just taking the piss, from them getting something which shouldnt be a tackle, then being 1 on 1 with my keeper! Yet, i play a through ball, and they always seem to have 2 defenders in their box waiting for me!

[Gabbastard]

Defenders being able to keep up with speedster players has always been an issue in all the fifas sadly.

[smiith]

Iv just fucked it off now.. conceded 4 goals in 8 minutes, all from passing it to a defender, and the 1st touch nudging it 10 yards away from me, and an attacker getting it and running straight through the middle.. Its a total piss take.

I mean im not shit by any means, i was constantly in the top 3 divisions of fifa 12, but this is just taking the piss now!

[Gabbastard]

Its weird man, I was talking to online mates about what you were saying, but none of us are being affected the way you are. The odd time someone will belt a pass and the receiver will miscontrol it, but its out of the ordinary.

Tell you what is pissing me off though - achievements not unlocking when they should. I chipped the keeper 8 times before I got the "chip a keeper" achievement. Similar with the "score a free kick after a player running over it".

[GolfJay]

I don't have the issues Smith is having either. The odd long ball gets away but its nothing bad.

[smiith]

Most games its alright, seems like the odd one, it almost gives a player an off game.. But feeding the ball to hazard, more than a few times its just bounced off his heels.. Same with when i go to tackle, i touch the ball, and it goes back to them.. They wipe me out in the box, and just wander off with the ball :/

Answer your party invites! I have no idea how many me and Chris sent you last night!

[DUFC]

Pretty decent at this now, in Division 1 on online seasons with my dutch team on ultimate team.. As usual pace is king and I kill all the people that are still in the dark and play with overrated premier league teams..

I use my mates gamertag which is: TDUM

Is there a saxperience pro club thing?

Pace is the best tbh but the amount of stupid goals I have conceded puts me in a rage with this game.

[smiith]

On Online seasons, i was doing awesome with Chelsea, had about 11 straight wins, went on one day, suddenly over 3 days, it turned to 17 losses.. No idea why.. I was playing games where they would have 2 shots on target and 2 goals, and i 9 on target and not one goal!

God knows what happened!

Left it a week, and last few days iv been playing alright, about 3 wins to every loss/draw.. no idea what happened to have all them losses though!

[GolfJay]

Pro Clubs, Saxperience were 1 point from being promoted to Division 7.

Ultimate Team, my Spanish side are in Division 2.

This.

FIFA is a confidence game.. and when you're on a losing streak, even though you may be (in form vs in form) far more talented than your opponent, nothing will drop or fall for you, you'll hit the post and the bar, miss sitters and it feels like the world is conspiring against you to lose football matches. Then every shot they take will fly in. And it takes until you meet someone in the same situation and get a nervy, scrappy 2-1 to get back on track.

lol.

[Brettles1986]

My losing streak has been abysmal.

The amount of times I have had shot attempts in double figures compared to the opponents 2 and still lost is stupid.

Last game I played, my keeper caught the ball then my defender fell on him and it went in

I had one the other day, i was running to the edge of the box with the ball in the keepers hand to do a long kick.. One of his players ran into my keeper, my keeper fell over, he got a free kick for the keeper holding the ball outside the box.. He scored.

Although i am SO HAPPY, That playing as Chelsea, i no longer get put against Real Madrid, or Barcelona.. Was just silly before, such an up hill battle on 12 to beat them..

Still think its abit shabby how Chelsea show as a pretty poor squad, yet they are european champions..

[PastyVTR]

Anyone else won division 1 yet ? 8k and a 7.5k pack

[GolfJay]

Anyone else won division 1 yet ? 8k and a 7.5k pack

Is that for championship win? I was wondering what was next...

[Bound]

Yeah.

What's weird is you get 10k for winning the division 2 championship (and therefore getting promotion into division 1 also).

But as you can't get promoted from division 1.. you only get 8k for winning that championship :S.

[Bound]

It annoys me why Tottenham are called "Spurs"

Why don't they call Arsenal "Gooners" and so on then.. Just stupid.

I never noticed this :panic:

[smiith]

Its annoying me how when Ashley Cole loses the ball, they call him Joe Cole..

[Scott]

So bought FIFA for the first time since FIFA 98 on the n64 so bear with me.

Only fucked about in the practise games. The menu system is a bit confusing what the heck are all the modes? What al I looking for if I just want to play as a team for a full season don't want to play online until I can at least get a hang of it

[PastyVTR]

Yeah.

Yer but the 7.5k pack will get you more than 2k normally, and it gives you the chance of someone big.

Whats everyone's team like, i've got a Brazil team, linked to Russian league forwards (using Welliton). Quite a good team if your bored of the usual teams...

Your probably looking for carrier mode there, but if i was you just start your ultimate team, or just play head to head seasons online. Playing the computer is really boring, and you wont improve much.

Not to fussed about improving. It's just a stop gap til halo is out

[P_Connor]

I want to get some club matches on the go! Was thinking about investing in forza 4 as well, but horizon is out soon is it not?

I won Division One the other night and the pack gave me Cassillas, sold him for a healthy 87,500 coins

I still hate you for this...

[GolfJay]

Quickest career progression ever?

Started at Leicester City and was loaned out to Swindow instantly. Played 10 games, scored 38 goals, simulated the rest amd managed to win the league and top scorer. Back to Leicester and transfered to Fulham straight away. Played 1 game, scored four and then AC Milan put a transfer request in for me!

[GolfJay]

zzirGrizz is an absolute animal on this game!

[Brettles1986]

So far won ballotelli, aguero, Cassillas,
Sneijder and ferdinand, I'm well on my way to winning division one again as well
