FIFA 16

[John Stones' Paint Trophy]

I'm enjoying it a lot and the new changes are nice for how I play in Pro Clubs which is box-to-box. I can drill passes wide, use little feints to make a yard of space. It finally feels like it isn't just going to be "give it to the fast lad and run" online this year.

I'm still crap at tackling, mind.

Speaking of ideal UT teams, as someone that loves a good BPL team, this is like heaven (pity it'd cost at least 195k >_> )

I'd use Oscar instead of Silva because of better workout for Oscar. 

[Benji]

Skills training is about as helpful and intuitive as figuring out how to nuke your dick off.

Passing is absolutely broken in this game.

Also gotta love that the kick off glitch is still a thing.

How is passing broken? I've been playing and passing the ball fine ...

Oh yeah, I bought the game. Play me and shit >_>

I seem to be remarkably good at hitting the post, why is this?

Tap a to pass to a nearby teammate... OH WAIT LETS SEND IT HALF WAY ACROSS THE PITCH TO RANDOM GUY SURROUNDED BY PLAYERS.

It's dumb, and fells really arbitrary about whether it'll go to the player you intended it to. At least with Pro Evo if I fuck up a pass, I know it's 90% likely that it's me doing something wrong, rather than the game deciding that its time my pass didn't work.

[Liam]

I dunno. I've honestly not felt like I've had that problem whatsoever.

[MDK]

Does stamina have an effect in this game at all?

[The Lusophone]

On Pro Clubs it does absolutely.

Are you copying and pasting that from another forum? If you right click and select "paste as plain text" it won't look odd

Back from EGX now ready to get my FIFA on. A bunch of guys I bought have gone way up in value too

Dunno how seriously to take it, but Rio Ferdinand is going to be a legend in the next game, according to an interview he did with Copa90.

[DavidMarrio]

Won the Champions Trophy with my Portuguese league team and doing average in seasons so far. 

Yet to get an amazing cards the best I've had is probably an 81/82 although I've sold the likes of Abate and Batshuyai  for 2-5k. Also sold the Nou Camp for 5k. 

[Cheeky Hughes]

Best I've packed are Leno, Eriksen and Mangala. Sold the first two, trying to create a North West hybrid.

[Benji]

Jesus Christ, I just went to look at the controls and realised there's so many more options than I knew. I basically only knew Slide Tackle/Standing Tackle, Short Pass/Lob Pass/Through Pass and Chip Shot/Finesse Shot/Standard Shot. There's an absurd amount of useful other moves the game never bothers to teach you, even in skill games. Really getting tired of games not bothering to properly do tutorials for new players.

Right thread this time

[Baddar]

What's the other stuff? I can't remember how in depth the controls are in the menu.

[Benji]

Loads of fake out stuff, stuff for bringing the ball to a full stop rather than having to deal with rebound, jockeying in defence, quick get up after going down, and a whole bunch of other stuff.
