FIFA 12 - Page 67 - Video Games - Video Game Systems Forum

Grats dude!

Cant pass, cant shoot, cant dribble, cant defend, cant win.

Gone from a 5:1 ratio. Won roughly half of my last 20. Getting beat 4-0, 5-1 etc

Every game feels laggy, it seems too easy to blame new TV. Gonna set it up upstairs later and try again.

Just got up into Division 4. That's promotion every season without fail so far.

This was the closest one yet. I needed 18 points and had 13pts with 2 games to go so I had to win them both. Didn't hold out much hope but I won my next game easily enough to setup a title decider. It was against Barcelona FML.

But I had a dream start. Went 1-0 up after only 8mins with a nice break up the park before Tevez cut inside and drilled a shot past Valdez into the bottom corner. YEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! But early days yet, more panic than joy at this point.

What to do now? Should I go ultra defensive and hold out for 82mins? Would I be able to sustain attack after attack from arguably the best attacking team in the game? Prob not so I will just keep it balance and see how the next 15-20mins go before changing anything.

What's this? Silva has just skinned three of the Barca back 4 and left them for dead completely out of nothing, squared the ball and Aguerro taps it in! 13mins gone! OMG I am jumping around the room at this point! Sit back down quickly and with my hands shaking try desperately to set my formation to ultra defensive.

Too ****ing late. FML. 2-1. Typical break through and messi slides it home. ****KKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!! Only 16mins gone and 2-1 to me! **** it defend defend defend. And that's what I did. Wave after wave, stupid balls bouncing around my penalty area off of defenders while I try and frantically get the ball away only for it to come back again in another Barca attack.

But I can tell I am frustrating him as he starts tilt slide tackling all over the place. I have it in my grasp now. Let's get to half time and regroup. Half time is here. Run through to the bathroom and wash the sweat off of my hands and my forehead. I look into the mirror and say to myself, it's your destiny! DIV 4 is your calling. WIN THIS!

So the second half kicks off. I am much more in control having the lions share of posession. Just passing the ball in the middle of the park waiting for an opening. Every time they break I cut the ball off with ease. I am growing more and more confident and then Silva cuts in from the wing again and puyol snaps him down from behind just before he shoots. PENALTY!! YESSSSSSSS!!! Surely a red card aswell..............no yellow! WTF?!!!l alkdjfa;dlksfjilajfdkl;adsjf! Bull****! Stupid ref. Tevez steps up to take it and FML keeper pulls of a save and then double saves my rebound. Is this my destiny?

I start to question myself again. Doubt is creeping into my mind. We have just over 20mins to hold on. My hands start sweating again. Finger slipping off of the analogue stick. I scream HOLLLLLDDDDD as if I am playing durrrr heads up and we are aipf for a $200k pot my AA v his KK. HOLDDDDDDDD.

My opponent has obviously switched to ultra attack as almost every player of his is in my 1/3 of the pitch. I can see the gaps up front. If only I can get the ball out to one of my wingers and then I will be 3/4 v 2 on a counter attack. And then Clichy does it. He makes a great last ditch tackle when Messi tries to take him on the outside, he gets up off the floor before Messi does and then punts a long through ball high up the pitch. Puyol gets their first but the ball bounces off of him. What was he doing?! Stupid perm head. Aguerro, his legs tired and like logs finds energy from somewhere to break into the box, the crowd go on their feet, I go onto the edge of my chair, it's like slow motion, I HAVE TO SCORE THIS, I have to, there will be no more chances and then I press shoot and before I know it the ball is in the back of the net. I roar with joy. I have done it. I have done the impossible. The media doubted me. The fans doubted me. My fellow managers doubted me. But I showed them all. Tonight will be party night.

The last few mins were a formality. Final whistle and 3-1 it finished. 3-1. I sat back in my chair and just sat staring at the screen with a smug look on my face. It was never in doubt I muttered to myself, the confidence returning with every passing second. I really do pwn scrub nubs.

Can't imagine the dismay. Then took the whole replays to send him some message about how cool it is to quit (I never do) and more generally to be a ****ing idiot. SCUMBAG

why do you guys even attack in the first 5 minutes?

just pass the ball around until 4 minutes then start building. You know everyone will quit if you score at 3.40 minutes.

Not everyone is an angleshooter who tries excessively to exploit every single advantage possible in a game as they are usually dwarfed in skill level.

GOML 5 MOTM in a row on Clubs with 2 of them being 10.0 and 2 as 9.9

TV seems fine, although I think having PS3 downstairs and far away from the wireless router may be causing me connection problems. A lot of the games seem laggy.

I find that most teams are like zomggg run onto the line playing with Ouroboros a team put like 3 on the line I roll it to a cpu striker gg.

Yea i'm never intentionally missing a shot inside 5 in the hope that the 20% chance they stay.

Nice well played

I am currently in Div 4. Gone 4-2-0 so far so only need 4 pts from 4 games. Pretty confident.

I wish I still had the fifa grind in me. Takes me a week just to play the ten games

Russian league has some crazy sick fast strikers, love, doumbia, etoo, welliton

Def the best team to build on a budget.

Some decent midfield and def also with likes of danny, bruno alves and akinfeev in nets.
