    The FullBacks at CB Meta is the worst thing to happen to Ultimate team is a while

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 04:07 PM PST

    Honestly, this is a football simulation right? And yet, there's no punishment for playing a fullback at centre back.

    Imagine City just decided to rock up against United tomorrow with Zinchenko and Mendy at centre back against Cavani. It's just fucking stupid. There needs to be a downside to these pace abusing wankers just sticking the fastest fullbacks they can find at centre back.

    Would that be OK if I do some FIFA related quizzes here?

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 03:44 AM PST

    Yeah, I think it would be pretty cool. I will put a vote link down, 10/15/20 questions every time and explain the result down below. The question could be about current/previous FIFAs (mainly FUT) or football in general. What do you guys think?

    FIFA quiz/trivia #1

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 09:36 AM PST

    The link of the trivia, hope you guys enjoy!

    Note:

    1. The last question is not based on FUT, so see it as a Bonus question.
    2. Other than that question, I ordered them by difficulty. So if you wish, go do a homemade FIFA millionaire with your mates!
    3. Don't use FUTBIN.
    4. Try to ask some streamers or Youtubers to do this. Would be interesting to see how well they know this game. Let me know if any of them actually tried!
    5. Let me know ASAP if you find any problem. Also, if you have any similar question in mind, feel free to DM me and it can be featured in the next one.

    What's the point of adding 100+ icons when your never pack them?

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 03:19 PM PST

    Playing FUT since 17 and player using friends account before that. Never have I packed an icon. Never at all.

    How are people so hyped about these cards when no one gets even the higher versions of the unfavorable icons?

    FIFA 21 Hit and Hope Guide.

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 09:03 AM PST

    Its that time of year again when I craft up yet another anti-football brexit ball in a rainy cold night in stoke back to the FIFA reddit, due to popular demand of the 0.02% of us that use Targetmen in our gameplay. As a proud Burnley supporter I'm here to teach you the art of anti-football itself and how to sustain optimal efficiency. You will be seeing out the infamous nil-nil win every game.

    This tactic passed around the back leagues of England brought to spotlight by football connoisseur Sean Dyche in the English top flight has showed significant strengths in this years FIFA. The tactic relies around the same tactic used by the cavemen, the 4-4-2 (2) (yes the alternative). Why? Because having the likes of Harry Maguire and Ben Mee will ensure either the body or the ball will get by the midfield, but not both. We don't mind the occasional Jojo Shelvey and Mark Noble substitute when the tempo REALLY needs to be set in stone.

    Even the gaffa's putting in a challenge

    I like to think of this game as 2 sides. 1 is your side, you simply need the ball OUT of this side at all costs. You must rely on clearing the ball with the clearance button and not long passing it or lobbed through balling it unless you are sure of it. There is no punishment when losing possession from a clearance in this game. CPUs rotate differently before and after each transition of possession. You will not get caught out if you clear the ball. This is a numbers game.

    The other side is where you want to completely bully and control your opponent. Because most balls coming in from your side are clearances, the game will give you a more fair chance to win the ball in some way, or at least judge it a bit more obvious scenario. With your absolute units of mass you'll be having up top, these balls will only go a certain distance over the strikers no matter what their pace is. The landing of the ball varies between the stats of the receiving attacker and defender. This is a numbers game. Regardless of the scenario you will statistically have a better chance of retaining possession letting the RNG of the ball landing play its part, than play your cards passing out the back and being absolutely fucked when you lose the ball in your own half and almost always concede from, that's when big Sean Dyches mind comes into play. The odds of them fucking up off a complete restart of the play before the ball gets back to your half is surprisingly high. This is a numbers game.

    *discipline - This is what makes the system tick. (Following this flow chart) will train your mind to understand the black or white system of how to play. We are not here to play a pretty game. We are here to win and frustrate your opponents. Simple.

    https://preview.redd.it/dptqryvts8l61.jpg?width=1686&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=600a8eea2baa5ded8e64a0d3a0550b8513ba8dff

    Now starting with the back line you are going to want to practically never control these players. Put high rated CBs at all spots to ensure the cpu's perform at maximal performance. This is a numbers game. Pace doesn't matter. The game will ensure at least 1 chance of recovery before a goal scoring opportunity (if all defenders are in correct positioning), unless you are really hit hard on a counter. If the game auto switches you to a defender then it is practically telling you this is the last chance to make a tackle before a goal is conceded. Make sure these guys were brought up in only the best academies in England and can put in a tackle.

    In the middle you want to show your opponent you have more creativity in your fingernail then he does entirely by chucking 4 extra defenders in. Regardless you will get 7 chem with all of them if following the system. Decent pace wingbacks on the side to whip in crosses and absolutely leg bashing CBs to do the dirty work in the middle of the park. Snap the legs and get it the fuck out. The only dribbling you will be doing with the CDMs in the occasional hold up in your opponents half but you only need to hold the shield button. On the defense these 2 will be your most actively controlled players, so you want to be confident with your picks. Make sure you are running around these 2 like a game of pro clubs and always pressing from behind the striker and taking him out whenever possible. Frustrate your opponent and exploit his weakness.

    Now up top is reserved for only the most elite targetmen the sports ever seen. This is a numbers game. Believe it or not, you have a better chance scoring when you lay off the sprint button and let your own CPUs catch up to the play to cross it. Again, this is a numbers game. With proper utilization of the bully botton (left trigger) you should never be losing the ball off these 2 as their only jobs are to hold up the ball, win headers, and to play your odds winning the ball in their half after a clearance. When you're comfortable enough and your opponent is lining up his controller for the window, you will be able to exploit numerous opportunities to spin off the defender with this button and be free on goal. Besides Andy Carrol and Englands own Charlie Wyke, the honorable mentions for this role are IF Ajoeque, Ibrahimovic, Drogba, and Ashley Barnes.

    Instructions n such. I play with Balance set to everything default except long balls on my offense, Get in behind on the strikers, and Get back on defense with the midfielders. On Ultra Defensive I got 3/3 widge-depth and dropback/possession with everything on the lowest. Instructions of course set to get back on all players. This is not what wins games. Its your mindset that wins games.

    https://reddit.com/link/lyge6p/video/f46j0ux2u8l61/player

    Again. You are here for the clean sheet. 0 goals let up regardless what happens on the attack is the objective. The results of what you do in your opponents half just narrows down to the numbers. But you have about 30%-50% of getting the ball back from a clearance before it comes back to your side in which then you just need to get it the fuck out.

    I can't spend another minute wasting my time on such a bad game so..

    Not winning crosses? Focus on the run of the striker more.

    Not winning the ball after clearances? Watch the receiving defenders head to see where he's passing it

    Conceding? You got 8 defenders come on.

    What my mates and I used to do

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 03:34 PM PST

    Whenever school ended for the day, my 5 mates and I would set up a little FIFA tournament with a table so who would be top and who would be bottom.

    We would all play 1 game with each other and we would tally up the scores after everyone played their games.

    The bottom two would play to see who finished last and second last.

    The top four would play a semi-final to see who would make it to the final. If they lost the semi-final, they would have to play for 3rd or 4th place.

    And the final two would play to see who would be victorious at the end.

    It was a fun, creative thing to do and I wonder if anyone did anything like this with their mates?

    WE NEED TO CHOOSE WHO TAKES THE PENS IN WL

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 04:58 AM PST

    After playing 120ms and going to pens, its absolutely unfair that we cant decide who takes the pens. I normally put in pace-y players in midfield that cant shoot at the end of the game, and the game decided they should take the pens before my wingers. Absolutely sucky

    Custom Tactics for 4-1-2-1-2 ( 2 ) ( Reached Top 200 last weekend )

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 06:25 AM PST

    Hej everbody,

    i want to share my custom tactic, it helped me last WL to reach top 200.
    I'm a Elite player but normaly no top 200 Player.
    Maybe it helps some of you to get better results this WL.

    https://preview.redd.it/39p8h4hlr7l61.jpg?width=793&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ead77908ef05f599b38e96d050c80714d7a16c16

    This my team.

    Important :

    • CDM : you need a true CDM with med/high workrates, only the defensive stats are important
    • CM: i prefer to have a allround midfileder (8) and one offensive one.
    • CAM: 5 Star Skills and at least 4Star WF
    • Striker: one agile fast striker and one striker which you can use as target man
    • CB: it depends on you , i prefer at least 80 Pace

    Tactics:

    https://preview.redd.it/75lzjwvps7l61.jpg?width=783&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c4f2862f06891b5bea970e1557204c1f73002921

    Tactics:

    Short Translation: Defensive Pressing after possesion loss Offense: Long Ball

    Playstyle:

    It is like the pressing football from Klopp at Liverpool and Dortmund, you team stays very high with 7 Depth and just 4 witdh.
    After you loss possesion there is for the next 7 seconds a high press on the opponent player, which forces them often to make mistakes or loose the ball in dangerous area.

    The most CB and CDM have not good Passing and dribbling stats and this are the players who got the pressing from my players.

    After Winning the ball we play fast upwards to the box because we are not the fan of possesion tiki taka play, we are searching fast for a shooting opurtinity with fast one touch passes.
    Most of the games i have arround 40% Possesion but is okay.

    And for fast build up the narrow formation is godlike becauase you have many triangels to make fast l1/lb passes. Look at the Picture what i mean with the triangels.

    https://preview.redd.it/cn828hz4v7l61.jpg?width=625&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1b3b6e7782f9cf440c769505aa7eff8f39fd376c

    Player Instruction:

    • GK : default
    • CB: default
    • FB: stay back - you need the 4 at back becauase of the 5-3-2 player
    • CDM: stay back , cut passing lines , cover mid ( nothing special )
    • CM: cover mid , stay at the edge of the box ,
    • CAM: come back on defense , get into the box
    • ST 1: stay forward , get behind
    • St 2: stay forward

    Alternative :

    This is my main Formation which i play 80% of the time, but there is time to time where you have to switch you formation.

    • 4-4-2 constant pressure - if im behind and the last 20 Minutes start
    • 5-3-2 I hate this formation but sometimes you play against such good player that you must play the same formation to get the controll of the wings back.
    • 4-4-2 (2) If you want close the game and you want a bit more stable defense

    FAQ:

    If you have any questions just ask, and i hope it will help some of you.

    Last a proof it's not necessary but just to give it more credit

    https://preview.redd.it/dfxcxr1oy7l61.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cf273854b327bfceb9d99c67df1bb4ca7b39af40

    You see nickname colly and just 6 hours remaing.
    At the end i dropped to rank 150.

    Gl to all of you

    Why are the EA servers so fucking shit...

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 03:14 PM PST

    10ping and 30mbps download speed and yet I'm constantly getting red connection signals every game.

    Feels like playing in cement, I wish it were like mud.

    Even the menus are laggy as fuck. There's noticeable delay just switching tiles in the home menu...

    How is anyone supposed to play this game online?? For those with bad internet that still play, I don't know whether to applaud you or send my sincerest condolences.
