Overlap FC - EA Sports FC 24 Pro Clubs

[LL!]

Use me as a bruiser that will guarantee a red card every game, but will assure you that one of our opponent's players will be severely injured.

I'll play whatever @Kaney is playing so that we have to leave Kaney on the bench.

I'll leave your face on a bench you son of a bitch

Doubled for emphasis?

[Kaney]

He has a sizable face.

I'm sorry, I thought you were a Zohore.

I forgot to mention that actually, we'll probably need Discord (or whatever software works best) to manage the audio chat in game if we've got people on different systems. The text portion will probably help too for people asking to play, posts in here might go unoticed if people aren't logged on.

There's always the old EWB server we can make a room in?

WELL WELL WELL

[METALMAN]

maybe I will get this game on PC. I've never tried Fifa where you only play as one player before. In the real world I play on the wing so I've got a vague idea of how that works and where to stand etc but I guess I could probably pick it up and play anywhere I'm needed.

[Baddar]

Discord will probably be the best way to communicate if we're all on different platforms. I've never tried a chat from my PC with someone on PS5 but I imagine it works just fine.

[King Ellis]

On second thoughts, let's not give TEOL the satisfaction. Who still has Skype?!

[Captain Kirk]

Forgot to put I'm on PS5, looking what everyone else is wanting to play I'm happy to just go in defence. Preferably RB/LB though.

I'll make an IRC server.

 

PS assuming I end up getting it promptly, im on current gen and happy to play wherever.

[Twist]

I'd be up for this. Series X. I'll play wherever I'm needed.

[Benjamin]

Is Pro Clubs playable across different servers? Or how much ping will I be facing teaming up with you guys on the other side of the world?

[Baddar]

baddar1988 is my Discord for those wanting to add in advance, or if Ellis wants to include them in the first post.

[Dang117]

I'm in for current gen, can play winger, central midfield, just not goalie

[King Ellis]

I went ahead and made a Discord server. Lord knows I'm no expert on such things so if something needs turning or whatever, give me a shout. Again, just with the generic EWB FC name until we come up with something more interesting. If anyone has any thoughts on kits we might want to use as well or colour schemes if we use the in game kit creator. Orange is the most obvious thought given it's use throughout EWB history. I think FUTBin used to have all the kit items and you could narrow by colour as a useful way to look at all the different kits, but they're dead now. Not sure if any of the other FUT sites have that and/or if the data is live yet?

I assume it will work similar to previous years where, if you choose a real club, you take their logo, kit etc so you can't just pick and choose. If we go that route, some possible options in the spoilers:

Spoiler

Inter Milan 3rd kit. They have their standard blue/black stripes for t heir home kit and a white away kit with a blue/black diagonal sash as well.

FC Lorient, nice mix of options amongst the away/3rd kits.

Ed Sheeran and filthy Tractor Boys aside, I think that's pretty snazzy. They have their usual blue kit for home, can't see they have a 3rd so no extra variety there.

Early access through EA Play will be coming up on Friday 22nd September, we could potentially play next weekend if people have that? I know it comes with Gamepass (which I need to sort anyway to play Lies of P so I'll be around), not sure if it comes with the Playstation Plus thingy too?

[Baddar]

I like the Lorient ones.

I won't have access til the 29th though.

The link isn't taking me to a server invite or anything, it's just opening Discord for me.

[King Ellis]

Case in point about my knowledge of Discord. Link should be fixed now.

[Baddar]

What's your EA ID's? Presume I'm gonna need that to get you all added. Mine is simply Baddar so you should be able to find me that way.

[King Ellis]

Mine should be KingEllis

I'm not 100% how it all works but I think it would be the owner or someone with manager responsibilities that would need to add people and invite them. 

Also, whilst I'm here, any late calls for team names? Will probably just go with EWB FC on Friday if there's no other ideas.
