FIFA 13 Thread

[Onyx]

FIFA 13 Discussion.

[RedOranje]

Would anyone like to make a FUT13 thread that is separate from this one? I think it'd be a good idea, personally.

[Blue Barrett]

^Done.

[Onyx]

Thought that 'edit player in career mode' thing in the catalogue would allow you to change hairstyles, it doesn't. Glen Johnson still has long hair, so wanted to change his hairstyle.

[McLewis]

Nah, you can just edit their boots and what not. I actually like that feature honestly.

As for my pro, currently on loan at Leeds from Chicago. The Championship is not at all a bad league to play in in this game. First time I've tried a lower league in a FIFA game since probably 06.

I like the editing feature it's a great idea but hair and facial hair need to be included.

Because obviously unless a player rocks a beard months before release he won't get it. I need Pirlo's Chuck Norris beard

I've noticed Johan Djourou still has dreads in this game

I've mostly been focusing on improving my virtual pro so far. For some reason the manager of Toronto FC decided to loan me to Dundee FC in the SPL though the other day even though I was easily the best player on the team with an average match rating of 8.8 as a CDM. I pretty much had to go or they were going to sell me to Chicago Fire for a measly $2 million. I cannot say for sure, but sometimes it feels as if the Dundee FC forwards are the worst 2 players in this whole fecking game .

One question: does anyone know if my achievements/skill levels will transfer over if I were to start another career or do you start from scratch each time you start a new one? Thanks.

[vizkosity]

i cant beat the computer :[
im bad at this game T_T

[Amar]

I've already quit H2H as I've been monged in every game I've played.

From Oscar beating Boateng in the air to Kagawa outmuscling Lescott, I've seen it all.

[vizkosity]

what are some good attacking methods do you guys use? I cant seem to make players making runs/creating room for a pass/through ball and it frustrates teh shit outta me :[

[Jay29]

Just got handed a win because my opponents didn't have enough players.

lmao

FIFA

I got named manager of Argentina, and I realized I don't really want the job, but I can't seem to find out how to quit

I don't want to have a part in helping that fat stat-padder Missi become GOAT

I'm debating benching him and winning without him intentionally

I play exciting tiki-taki football

Don't always try to force a goal though. If there are no runs open, just make the safest possible pass and wait for them to open up. It can be annoying to wait for an opening since you don't have much time per game vs. a real life match, but it feels like they're making scoring goals from very direct play harder and harder these days. Or, the problem is that I'm not good enough at the game to force direct goals, but meh the current strategy is working well enough for me.

Purposely go on the worst losing streak in the country's history to get sacked, then rebound by making Northern Ireland win the world cup?

Hopefully they fix career mode soon.

[Freeza]

Hopefully they fix career mode soon.

What is wrong with career mode?

[Onyx]

It freezes the console when I try to advance. A lot of people seem to be having that problem.

[Ganso]

That used to happen in FIFA 12 too,I lost 2 saves,1 with Arsenal and Bayern because it kept freezing every time i loaded

[Nishankly]

Can we create clubs in FIFA13?

[Onyx]

San Siro pitch with that light shade.

Can't even see what your doing on that pitch.

[white_star]

Playing as Liverpool in career mode.

Reina
Enrique-Agger-Skrtle-Johnson
Sahin-Leiva
Gerrard
Assiadi-----------------Blaszczykowski
Suarez
Bench: Allen, Alba, Kelly, Borini, Honda, Shelvey


Beasting in the league with all out attack. I am playing on the highest difficulty level and concede goals but alway outscore my opponents. Best game was beating City 5-4 with Suarez hatrick.


The best part of the game when watching pregame and the fans singing you will never walk alone at Anfield. I have a badass surround sound and it's like watching a live game.

[Swanhends]

I quit the Argentina job and immediately got offered the Germany job

Errybody recognizing dat talent

Holding out for the USA job though

[Jay29]

Finished my first season as a player. Started at Arsenal as a striker and was sent out on loan to Shrewsbury. Got promoted and scored about 21 goals in the league. Now at loan with Ipswich.

Only rated 72 atm.
