Started the game about a month ago, and through sbcs and the like ended up with the good fortune to pack a couple strong players, most notably a standard 89 aguero I run a epl squad so that's great, but as I'm broke at the moment I can't help but wonder if I'd be better off swapping aguero for standard Sanchez and making 80-100k or so to turn around into sbcs or the 100k promo pack. Would this be a mistake? Right now I'm running a 4-3-1-2 with Aguero - Vardy (Firmino, Sturridge, Coutinho) Ozil Eriksen - Gundogan - Mahrez (Depay, Sterling, Wilshire, Schneiderlin, De Rossi) Shaw - Mustafi - Ashley Williams - Coleman (Moreno, Bellerin, Cahill, Reid) Cech Is there a better use of my players than this formation?

When you say trading, do you mean making percentage sums off of buying/selling high value players strategically? I don't really have a sense of how the market behaves (PS4)

I've been using it since it was suggested itt and found that it works best for me with pacey midfielders on the outside and a solid passer at cdm. I use the counter attack style and pressure back with my cam as much as possible. Ideally I recover the ball about a quarter of the way up the field, pop it outside to a midfielder for a run, pull up and see who comes in trailing. Alternatively I just let aguero or vardy ball out but that probably doesn't work as well up the ranks

In penny-ante news I grabbed a bunch of schweinsteigers given the mls news, even small appreciation helps I can't seem to break out of Division 4, which is probably a bad sign for ever getting better

I decided to mess around with an mls squad and stuck an anchor on josef martinez because I was out of hawks it's hilarious, he's got 99 sprint/acc with 92 strength and near perfect positioning. I haven't a single complaint at all.

Seltzer posted:I could write a mini guide on some general tips with regards to winning the qualifying tournament if you like. I don't know what div I am this year since I don't play divs but I've qualified every week I wanted to except this one where I just was too frustrated to try again. Yeah, I'd appreciate it. I usually smoke the first two opponents then lose the third in frustrating, smothered fashion. Seltzer posted:Draft was a smart gimmick for fifa 16 but yeah now that the newness has worn off the payout needs to be changed. Idk they don't have a 5k draft and a 15k draft and just scale rewards down accordingly. The price is too prohibitive imo. 89 Villa and IF Martinez are such a lethal combo I can't wait until MLS tots to get a non wasteman CM to link to martinez. I don't have the luxury of 89 villa up top but I really like SBC Gio/82 Dempsey as CFs in the CAM spots in a 4-2-3-1. Kaka not so much.

Elliptical Dick posted:I'm thinking of doing the Bundesliga SBC to get Lewa and then building a squad around him. I was just wondering if chemistry affects the subs that you bring on because I was thinking of sticking my BPL squad on the bench for fitness. Have you had a chance to play with Lewa before? I was pretty disappointed

Elliptical Dick posted:No I haven't. Why were you disappointed? The card looks really good at first glance. He didn't play up to his stats in a few setups I tried. NIF Modeste outperformed him by double. I had the same thing with De Bruyne vs Eriksen though so ymmv

In a span of ten minutes I - got scored on from a bicycle kick 3/4 of the way to the corner - had my ai concede a penalty after a corner clearance while everyone exited the box - allowed said penalty via half of ball clipping through keeper's stomach why do i play this game

Do the league sbcs, there's a spreadsheet or two floating around as to how to turn a small profit. If you happen to get lucky and pull an exceptionally valuable player you can turn it around immediately. If you're going to do that, use futbin.com to make sure you're getting good value when you sell.

Yeah, as much as De Gea/Courtois/Lloris piss me off with stupid poo poo, they clearly make saves Butland doesn't. He's a good option for starting/cheap/low star squads but the fact players will still use him/musa when they could clearly afford at least Lloris/Vardy mystifies me

Elliptical Dick posted:Yeah Cech routinely outperforms him for me. I think most high end keepers are serviceable tbh. I can almost always identify the cause of goals against as a defensive mistake by myself. When I used Cech he got *lit up* by low driven balls, esp cross body. not that anyone in this game doesn't, but you know. I've settled on 88 Schmeichel for the forseeable future and I'm gonna stick with this one.

Elliptical Dick posted:Aaarrrrggghhh I just got to the final of the new DKO on the first try. Was leading 2-0 in tbe 84th and after no lag all game it DC's all of a sudden and blames me. Wasn't there a trick that people could do to force the game to think the other player disconnected? I'm suspicious as hell Contact EA about this. If you have a decent record in the DKO/WL qualification/etc they'll give you a win as a known issue. Seltzer posted:They just had to make room in the totw for pogbas 4th special card for doing nothing and a son card while his sbc is out. Oh well I didn't do the son sbc and now there is a better tradeable central card. Hopefully he'll be low because tons of people did the sbc. The SBC is super super cheap relative to value, so if it isn't I'd advise snagging him! t a s t e fucked around with this message at 17:22 on May 24, 2017 |
