FIFA 14 Thread

[Monkey D. Lars]

Number 14 is claimed by c'est moi.

Can't wait to play pro clubs again!!!

The first two days I start with night shifts

[ZJ Penn]

I'll take 4 if no-one else wants it.

Hopefully there's more appearance options than:

- generic black guy

- generic white guy

- either of the above with blue afro

[Baddar]

TCO is going to have a fit.

Am I the only person who would like some kind of reserve team/youth games in Career Mode, even as just an optional extra?

It's so hard to progress youth players (particularly ones from scouting who never get sent on loan) without putting them in the first team at the expense of much better players, but without doing that you never see any improvement in them.

[METALMAN]

Can't you loan them out?

[Chris2K]

I don't know what it is but in 13 if I sign any players from the scouting assignments it's virtually impossible to loan them out, nobody makes any offers for them no matter how good they are.

Looking forward to getting [NAME REMOVED] into the top 100 clubs this year. Since I never played 12, is it different at all to what I was used to in like 10/11? I remember that time, Dan, when we were playing all night after the monthly reset and got to like 16th in the world.

This was a good night. Probablly one of the best times I ever had playing FIFA.

I was thinking about this not too long ago. I would LOVE a separate reserve/youth team for each club, so that you can call up/send down members of your squad where applicable. It would also help using the 'squad rotation' thing for your team selection not filling your starting XI against Man United with youth players

So where is the best pre-order from? For 360.

[ZJ Penn]

Tesco Direct are selling it for £40. But there's a £5 off code at the moment and 500 clubcard points if you have one, which nets you a £5 voucher. So yeah, it's sort of £30 and where I'm getting mine from.

[MDK]

My Tesco points go to my mum so she'll be happy.

LIN K-DAWG, plz

[ZJ Penn]

Checkout code is TD-GL4Q. Expires 15/09

Might want to see if anyone has better options before you order. I have done zero other research

[MDK]

So I guess you'll be our Joe Kinnear

[METALMAN]

He Kinnear you saying that

That's right, and I'm looking forward to seeing how the lads Jimmy Bean and Ronnie Summers do up front this season.

[Cheeky Hughes]

He's tired of hearing the team talk about Bloody Jews :/

If you Euro kiddos can wait until November and the XBox One ... you can get it for free.

[ZJ Penn]

I'm afraid it's heavily rumoured that a controlling stake in the Dragons will be bought by Sony in summer 2014...

Only if you pre-ordered the day one edition, which I have to assume at this point every store in town will claim to have already run out of.

[TCO]

That and lol Xbox One.

The next-gen ports of sports games are usually glossier bare-bones versions of the originals at the start anyway. They don't start being proper good until they're the primary version of the game all through development.
