Official FIFA Soccer 14 Thread

[slamcity]

Why won't FIFA let me be great, period. I have yet to advance passed Div 6.

Man, I got to Div 5 and got relegated in record time. Now im Div 6 bouta get relegated again. I just ignore my record these days and am at peace with the scripting.

This cat flyeed though.. I haven't played you on 360 yet, but I see you man (Div 1, 50+ wins and only a handful of losses). Even if you only play with RM, i damn sure couldn't replicate that :x

 

[flyeed]

^haha I used Bayern in D2 just for a change of pace and had a minislump. Switched back to my team RM for D1, so far won my first 2 matches by locking down defensively.

hoping i can keep it up, whenever i post here i jinx myself

Edit: jinx was in full effect, tried to be too cute with my finishing and caught an L

 

[rhythm808]

Got this is one of my packs

I got this too....it's just a free FUTWC pack.

 

[rhythm808]

Here is the WC Squad I am running with at the moment.  I have Matuidi on the bench in case I need more pace in the middle of the field. 

 

[sfn 155]

Took advantage of the market crash and built some more teams

 

[arstyle27]

Yea, prices are really dropping. Agüero can be had dor just about 47,000 coins. Just two weeks ago he was still goin for close to 100,000.

 

[miketysonthekiller]

Yo, this WC FUT mode is frustrating as hell. Maybe it's because my chemistry isn't on the green side or something, but my players be making ******ed mistakes, terrible and delayed passes ie; run and pass, but player keeps running and lose possession like wut?

Either, way, its aight.... I don't have great players on my squad and I have no realiable striker as of now. I think my best players are david villa, nani, kaka, honda, and dembele

I use Campbell and this mexican striker during second half because my euro striker is ****e

How are you guys building these stacked WC FUT squads? Are you guys buying coins for the packs?

Also, I have more Goalies than defenders, wtf b...

 

[dabottom305]

What's the offline mode you guys said to play that helps you get better?

Pro Clubs or career mode?

 

[taj gibson]

I still can't play FUTWC, everytime I select a nation to support I get an error message and returned back to the home screen.

career

manager mode

 

[dabottom305]

Thanks. I just played 6 games on player mode. I'll start manager mode tomorrow.

Just won the D1 cup on my first attempt. Had to win 6 of my last 7 and it came down to the last match. I was down 1-0 after getting suffocated in the first half. I gambled on an offensive Isco for Xabi Alonso sub and was able to pull out 2 goals for the comeback. It wouldn't have felt as good to do in a second attempt so I'm happy I was able to win it my first run.

Gunna give seasons a break now so there'll be no more updates from me

 

[cs02132]

Who are you guys favorite LM and RM? I play career so they will progress over time

i use a 4-2-3-1 but RDM/LCM

 

[flyeed]

Depends on the size of the club you're using and what your budget is like. At LM there are plenty of good options. Jese is the truth for me in a 4-3-3 on the left side. I've always had trouble finding a good affordable lefty to cut in and finish with. Saved up and got El Shaarawy who's got a 4 star weak foot and he's been really good for me.

If you can get Marco Reus he's a must cop. I use him as a striker but he can play LM/RM/CAM also.

 

[flyeed]

Oh and another thing, if you're willing to ask around about who to cop on here, there are sites like sofifa.com and futwiz.com that you can search players up on google with to find potentials and reviews for.

I personally think the right way is to make your own decisions, but I also hate the new global scouting network so don't blame anyone for just checking online.

Remember too that it's important to see things in young players like showing great potential, an exciting prospect, and has potential to be special. i stupidly sold a player with potential to be special to Barca for 4 mil and like 2 seasons later wound up buying him back for 40 mil.

Draxler. Bought him for around 30 mil and sold him to barca for 60+ mil in the same season

 

[dabottom305]

A while back I was messing with the formations and I ended up making 4-3-3 my default and the midfielders are not lined up properly. My issue is I use Ivory Coast and their default is 4-1-2-1-2 or something like that. I can't reset it. I've tried deleting my profile, resetting squads, etc and it will not reset when I go play sessions. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

 

[rook]

I run with the 3-5-2 in FUT.

Love it. Just have to make sure my 2 holding Middys are always fit

 

[jewseejay]

Won my 3rd of World Cup with this squad .

Baines and Mangala are my only defenders worth mentioning . Figured out Ozil plays way better with modric and Dembele behind and **** with gunogan for some reason. I normally bring in Neymar on the RW and Toure for whichever CM isnt playin well

So for FUT do you basically have to purchase coins with real $$$ to get your squad up to be competitive?

I started my FUT last night, played 3 games... won 2 with my ****** *** squad.  Barely any coins though...

No you don't. Sometimes 1k players are better than 50k players.

 

[bamez]

You know how everyone hated playing only Real Madrid in seasons? FUT is like playing an even better squad every game until you yourself can have a celebrity squad

 

[tomdiginson]

As said before a 1k can sometimes perform just as well as a 50k player. If you know what you're doing you can outplay them.
