[reef patio]

but it feels so bad

[buoyant hinge]

Sup yall

[torpid musk]

Im in a streak and idk if for every win I get an additional point

For example

I won and i got 4 points

If a win the next match i get 5?

[torn wharf]

for rivals rewards?

you only get 3 right doesnt matter if ur on a streak

[torpid musk]

Here it says “Wins are worth a +1 additional Reward Point”

[proven galleon]

Yoooo did they fix the controller issue???

[torn wharf]

I just completed the “diving in” objective but in the “path to pro” objective it says I haven’t completed it. anyone else having this problem?

[proven galleon]

Plzzz LMK

[heavy ledge]

leave defending alone

[unborn mortar]

https://tenor.com/view/sweating-nervous-wreck-gif-12986085083782148824

[proven galleon]

Pos

[exotic copper]

Please leave defending alone

[patent oasis]

No

[wet surge]

leave defending alone

[worn phoenix]

Don't change defending

[modern dune]

Please don’t change defending

[olive wharf]

yea my friend has the same issue

[plucky apex]

How we feeling about post patch gameplay to those who've played? Worried for when I get on 😭😂

[modern dune]

It’s not too bad tbh it’s pretty much the same thing

[olive wharf]

not major icl

[modern dune]

Can’t really tell the difference

[olive wharf]

drivens from ridiculous angles arent working agaisnt me

and from the graphic they showed it was meant to add shot error for full power shots

[worldly wigeon]

its already live?

[modern dune]

This gameplay compared to the start of FC25 is levels ahead

[olive wharf]

so it makes sense that the really sharp angles dont work

[timber dragon]

Still can’t connect to FUT

[olive wharf]

but barring that pretty much same

[ruby latch]

patch is good

[olive wharf]

i did notice while playing dkt that my players did stop running when they went offside more often

[modern dune]

It’s actually a good patch

[olive wharf]

but thats not that major honestly. just feels like it happens slighlty less now

[modern dune]

They are actually listening

[olive wharf]

ye

[floral dirge]

Ea pls dont improve defending

[olive wharf]

if i see defending win on that poll im gonna cry

[plush plover]

Had a bug that didn't let me make any subs during the game, one of my players was dead on stamina and I couldnt change him leading to a loss

[modern dune]

Where’s the poll

[olive wharf]

in

polls

lad

[floral dirge]

Idl u can click on polls

[olive wharf]

xD

[modern dune]

I’m blind asf 😭

[split light]

To be honest I Am ok with the defending

[modern dune]

73% neutral rn

[plush plover]

It's been an issue since FIFA 23 lol, idk if they are homie

[modern dune]

Hopefully it stays like that

[olive wharf]

dude defending is good

its actaully just a learning curve

[unreal rain]

hey guys do you think prices will go up or down when rivals rewards come out

[modern dune]

If u can defend its a skill issue

[olive wharf]

i have been a manual defender through and through, disliked ai defending

[floral dirge]

Yeah, neutral must go up

[modern dune]

All rewards are untradeable

[olive wharf]

up

coin injection

[plush plover]

Lil kids that got used to AI defending and just running with cdms are crying cause they thought they were good lol

[olive wharf]

untradable supply

so mostly up imo

[modern dune]

AI defending just made bad players look like they are good no offence

[olive wharf]

EXACTLY

[errant halo]

I forgot when do we the get rewards for the challenges from 25?

[split light]

Yes defending is great although I Am bad at it i Am getting better and I Am enjoying the game even more

[olive wharf]

we can no longer keep running with 80+ pace dms with high agaility to cover while vvd aura farms witth his ai

u gotta actually time tackles

and mark players

[copper bane]

pc controller bug fixed?

[olive wharf]

its so good

[modern dune]

The people who want realistic gameplay can go play career mode or smthn. It’s the reason they put 2 different styles

[plush plover]

I had it on 23, fc 24 and now, I didn't get fc 25 but it might have been there too

[modern dune]

U gotta actually use ur brain

[olive wharf]

yea big w for me icl

i feel like im playing fifa 17

[modern dune]

Same here I’ve enjoyed this start of Fc26

[split light]

Yes and I like that it makes u think what is going to be ur next move

[split light]

Yes

[plush plover]

lets not go that far, still feels like some players are on ice skates some times lol

[modern dune]

The best thing is acc winning the ball after tackling

[olive wharf]

yea like the closest its been since

fifa 17 icl was my goated fifa

[plush plover]

Lets pray EA doesn't kill the game with one patch

[olive wharf]

so this has actually brought my joy back

[unreal palm]

idk some people are saying it is but it still doesnt work for me

idk what to do about it now

[olive wharf]

this bro!

im debating if i want saliba

[plush plover]

I use controller and its fine, if you're on steam chekc your steam input settings

[ruby latch]

how?

[unreal palm]

like is it on my end or is it still on ea's end?

[olive wharf]

idk if people saying hes bad are just the bad defenders or if hes not that good this year

[modern dune]

I’ve been a Rank 1 player these past couple years and imo this is the most I’ve enjoyed playing

[unreal palm]

makes controller inputs stop registering during online play, mainly happens on corners for me

[modern dune]

No more holding ur CDMs to defend

[unreal palm]

im pretty sure its not on my end cuz the pause button still works

[olive wharf]

u goota cap ur fps

[unreal palm]

what should i do with them?

[olive wharf]

my friend had to too

lock ur fps at 60

and try

[unreal palm]

i capped it at 60 and set hz to same

[olive wharf]

it worked for my buddy

[unreal palm]

it made it better

but it still happens

[olive wharf]

oh what

yea idk they said the patch was meant to fix input bugs

[unreal palm]

alr ill try it

[copper bane]

sad

[olive wharf]

also whats with mariona being dirt cheap

[unreal palm]

yeah maybe i just need to keep on playing hopefully it will work itself out

[olive wharf]

i swear shes just the best midfielder comparable to bonmati too

[unreal palm]

also is there something I'm don't know about kubo that's making him so cheap?

[south bough]

Yo I did a objective called diving in but on the objective path to pro it doesn't say I've done it anyone know how to fix it?

[unreal palm]

5/5 good stats

[olive wharf]

glitched

[south bough]

For everyone?

[olive wharf]

i finished my objs on the first two days so it counted

my friend on ps5 did it yesterday and his is glitched

[south bough]

Ah ok thanks

[unreal palm]

4/4 woops

[olive wharf]

I also noticed that the objs lock u out from doing other objs

for example the hagel obj, was do 4/5

i left the 80x3 for the end and i cannot do it if i did the other 4

which is the best pack

and i noticed that the weekly play completionist also says do 4/5 whereas week5 gives 83x2 i believe

[south bough]

I hope they fix it by the next patch

[olive wharf]

so we can essentially just never get the 83+

which is annoying

[plush plover]

objectives are bugged, the dive in objective shows as inactive so i cant get my TOTW pick

[dusky haven]

ME TOO!!

[unreal palm]

oo ansu fati totw and lewa gold from a prime gold players pack

not bad

is fati good?

[plush plover]

idk tbh, the 2 +78 packs are goated ngl, Got Marmoush and Davies

[unreal palm]

damn

[pearl orchid]

Keep defending as is for now! @main pier

[viral raven]

Is anyone experience trouble accessing the transfer market in the web app?

I finished all objectives, been playing like a maniac. Still no access to transfer market in web app

[rocky ivy]

Hi

Who wanna play

[olive wharf]

bro

i packed marmoush twice in 2 days

i feel like bro got nerfed

everyone has him suddenly

i sub him off for kerr at halftime

shes class

[plush plover]

tbh I use him as winger, his finesse shot is nasty if you can cut inside

[olive wharf]

i was playing 41212(2)

i tried 4213, loved it but ehhhhh i didnt enjoy it

loved it in terms of wins

now im trying 4231

so i cant use him lm i think

[raven granite]

Yo I was trading now everytime I try a play it says there was a problem connecting to the servers how do I fix this?

[olive wharf]

restart the game

[raven granite]

Tried that

[olive wharf]

if it persists could just be servers

since the patch came out recently

i wouldnt be surprised

[raven granite]

Ye maybe

But I did buy a lot of players

[olive wharf]

the last game i played like an hour ago

i got catch up lag for the first time

so i got off after

i just assumed servers were being iffy

[raven granite]

Ye that’s fiars

Also

Where is quaresma?

He’s in the game as a name but no concept and not on the market

[olive wharf]

price range messed up?

[raven granite]

Na he’s not even got a concept card I don’t think he’s even added

But u type up his name he pops up aswell as his photo

[olive wharf]

yea wait what

he doesnt even show on futbin

i didnt know

[ruby latch]

anyone else only use 1st owner?

[median widget]

best card to invest in?

[raven granite]

Ye was confused I wanted to buy him lol

[raven granite]

Gordon

Buy 1.6-1.7 on release day he goes to 3-4k

I got over 300 was gna get like 500 ish but my transfer markets bugging up

[median widget]

Whens release day

tomorrow right?

[raven granite]

Friday

Ye tmrw

[gritty spindle]

i cant play rivals, any help?

[toxic sparrow]

What do you think about people who pay other people to play on their accounts? This happens all the time in Brazil.

[olive wharf]

yessir

[plush plover]

this happens everywhere, and most of the time players are hackers lol

[olive wharf]

tryna grind the 100k pack

[torpid musk]

It’s hard to defend and easy to attack that you are winning 4-0 and ur rival won’t leave because he can still score four goals 💀

[median widget]

This is why fast wingers are nightmares to play against

[torpid musk]

Valverde Pepe sbc Julian Alvarez and Ayose

Im cooked 🥀

[vestal hollow]

Hello everyone

[olive wharf]

bro that alvarez

warra card

i get nightmares

[stuck pike]

Input problem didn't get fixed at all 😞 sames that we need to wait for 1 week more

[plush plover]

i feel like attacking and defending are just as hard, but most people are used to AI holding their hands in defending so now its hard for them to actually mark the players and track runs

[pseudo panther]

Hey I completed the diving in objectives group but it doesnt appear completed in path to pro , anyone know why?

[plush plover]

its been bugged

[pseudo panther]

Do you know When does it get fixed?

[plush plover]

idk man, ask EA lol

[torpid musk]

One win for Div 6 and the weekly rivals

Why im a playing with these players

[median widget]

Szoboszlai is a good budget card

Hes been solid for me

[drowsy ferry]

Is pc release in 9 hours?

[plush plover]

its on friday I think

[drowsy ferry]

It said Thursday 8 am est on the ea sports website but on the ea app it says 7 pm

[patent quiver]

why does the ea play trial not work

ist telling me to upgrade my game

[olive wharf]

yo gang what we saying ab gyokeres

190 seems a bit too cheap no

[plush plover]

annoying af to play against, guy can win any corner

[olive wharf]

yea i bought him at 240 during the first crash

and sold him when he hit 310

used him for a couple of games in the middle

but like these prices are scary

im iffy ab tradable supply with cornerstones but i also feel like buying meta cards and holding could work idk

this is tough

[quaint stag]

How is my marmoush getting outran by Gabriel Nice game Ea

[olive wharf]

bro im telling yall he got nerfed

thats why we all packed him

my marmoush has been useless for me today

[quaint stag]

Dude the pace in this game doesnt matter sometimes

[olive wharf]

and i have like 40 games on him with 78 goals and 35 assists

[rose blaze]

Musiala is him this year

[silent bear]

vamos gremio vamos

[alpine arch]

There is heaps to consider in that scenario. Before getting to the running types

[quaint stag]

My Rodrigo with almost 90 pace cant run for shat

[spark talon]

So 7 days of investigation and haven't fixed 1 single issue for the pc

Absolute m0r0ns

[quaint stag]

Bro quit yapping if a player with 20 more pace is running the other guy wont catch up is that simple

[olive wharf]

XD

[olive wharf]

i mean he has a point brother

but i get what u mean cause i noticed it too

[quaint stag]

He doesnt dude

[olive wharf]

when my guy is clean through, he is getting caught

which shouldnt happen with pace differential of 15+

[quaint stag]

Whats the point of having 20+ more pace if you cant outran the defender like its not even outranning its the defender catching me up

[misty ore]

Tap the sprint button repeatedly instead of holding it and youll go faster

[olive wharf]

huh

[quaint stag]

Only with playstyle no ?

[alpine arch]

Lengthy v controlled matters - clean through for sure, but maybe Gabriel was already running

[olive wharf]

that will just make ur touches loose no? cause of the push ball

[misty ore]

No works on every player

[torpid musk]

And I lost

[alpine arch]

I’m not saying it’s right or wrong. Just saying there are other factors

[quaint stag]

Dude listen to me stop being brainwashed sometimes pace dont work in this game

[hollow aspen]

I need a CAM and another striker for my 41212, should I buy them in the morning after rivals rewards or should I wait for the new promo to drop

[misty ore]

True you push the ball more forward but still in your distance thats what you need when your clean throut

[olive wharf]

F

[hollow aspen]

And who should I get? I'm thinking ekitike and perez

[olive wharf]

depends

high meta lowkey, buy rn

lower tier i hoenstly have no idea

[alpine arch]

Okay mate. Just don’t play then 😊

[quaint stag]

Dude why are you even talking

[hollow aspen]

Who do you suggest buying? Budget is 70k for both

[quaint stag]

Rage baiting

[plush plover]

yeah idk, 76 pace players catch up with my 93 pace attacker in .2 secs lol

[olive wharf]

id hold off for a bit wwith 70k

[quaint stag]

See

[olive wharf]

see if the amrket dips a bit more

if it starts going up u can always buy before it peaks

[hollow aspen]

Who should I be looking at for the two positions do you have any suggestions

[plush plover]

ngl bruno fernandez has worked for me, Odegaard also works well

[quaint stag]

Man im telling you dude its the only thing holding this game Back

[misty ore]

I think market should dip after everyone gets the game just my opinion tho

[olive wharf]

dm me ur team

[misty ore]

If you have use dolan

[olive wharf]

i believe the opposite

supply will be lower demand will be higher

and champs

so people will wanna spend

[misty ore]

Champs is in a week

[rose blaze]

musiala feels like he has 95 pace to me. Hold R1 and just walk by everyone. His finishing feels inevitable too 8 games 31 goals in div 6 on shadow striker

[olive wharf]

yea so going into full release we should ideally see an upward trend

[hollow aspen]

Sent

[alpine arch]

Couldn’t agree more - great evidence

[olive wharf]

unless we get a lot of tradable packs

[misty ore]

Check dm when you have time

[plush plover]

Oh I've seen I got a guy who only did that all game, just get with your CB and run directly to him. EZ

[quaint stag]

What in div 11 is that

[rose blaze]

its not a joke he scored 4 a game for me right now. Broken player.

[quaint stag]

You are playing agaisnt ppl who are clueless at defending

[misty ore]

I hope they dont patch defending

[rose blaze]

well its div 6. people cant handle technical plus right now it seems.

[plush plover]

doesn't need a patch, people just need to learn to defend lol

[pseudo panther]

Has anyone tried rashford?

[misty ore]

Yeah needs to stay how it is now

[quaint stag]

For me the game is good as it is only thing is the defenders randomly having 99+ pace is annoying

[misty ore]

For me its somtimes the opposite players with 90 pace feel like 30 like caicedo from real madrid she has technical but no legs it seems

[quaint stag]

Like last game my 76 pace defender put Haaland on fraud Watch How is that possible

[quaint stag]

She is so so bad

She is always getting catched up

[plush plover]

i mean tbf, running with the ball and without the ball is completely different, I haven't tried but maybe if you do the double tap R2 to just push the ball and then run can help. Still makes no sense

[misty ore]

Thankfully shes a bench warmer i got pretty lucky on my pulls i was surprised

[vestal adder]

@main pier what’s up g fix defending pls x

[misty ore]

Got yamal like day one 😅

[quaint stag]

Ik dude but like there is not a reality where a 60 pace defender like Gabriel is catching up my marmoush

[plush plover]

nah defending is good, learn it

[vestal adder]

ong it’s the worst thing ever

[wintry silo]

Seems like a skill issue, just running through defence with pace is not nice gameplay

[misty ore]

Go play carrer if its hard bro

[olive wharf]

ladies and gentlemen

[plush plover]

i don't think he can read?

[quaint stag]

Yeah dude for sure playing football

Is not Nice game play

You can have the fidget spinner game play just make it Make sense

[olive wharf]

also technical plus really aint that good idk what i just read

its so easy to stop

just tackle literally

instead of jockeying and hoping ai will get it

[misty ore]

Just get good at reading the game and close options (like a real football game) and youll defend

[median widget]

Fr bro how do people not like playing high scoring

[vestal adder]

i’ve tried to learn it and somehow with van de ven and hincapie at cb fckn mateta and wissa can just walk right past them

[olive wharf]

+1

[olive wharf]

ahahahhahahahahah

yo bro

[quaint stag]

You people love to throw that word around . Div 11 player

[olive wharf]

i have an issue w wissa bro ong

that guys runs are amazing

[plush plover]

track runs and mark players. Learn how to defend AI is not doing it for you this year lil bro

[olive wharf]

i can stop alvarez and marmoush and what not

but not wissa

[misty ore]

I have the problem with lookman

Dudes op

[wintry silo]

You Are the one complaining about not being able to abuse pace

[olive wharf]

yea him too

[vestal adder]

honestly hes just a cheap mbappe at this point

[plush plover]

bro Ayoze has been destroying me LOL for some reason he seems like Zico

[olive wharf]

ayoze is a goat

icl

[vestal adder]

gonna be stuck in champs challengers cause of that mf

[torpid musk]

Are Div 7 rewards bad?

[quaint stag]

How is a guy with 90 pace getting catched up by a def with 60 pace abuse ? you are mentally challenged

[vestal adder]

oh yes

[torpid musk]

Yes

[olive wharf]

let it go bro

[misty ore]

I havent faced perez at all yet but the kolo sends me to early showers every game

[olive wharf]

game gotr over 10 years ago

q into a new one

[torpid musk]

I will try Div 6 hut I have school tomorrow 💀

[olive wharf]

i got to div 6

bless

[vestal adder]

ea said they are gonna slow the power curve but then drop 100k pack on the first day of early access like what the f

[misty ore]

I need a win for 5

[wintry silo]

Running with ball vs without is diffrent, just like real world

[olive wharf]

i wanted to get to 5 before rewards but idk the game do be hard

[misty ore]

Packs have nothing to do
With power curve

[plush plover]

they are slowding down the curb, unless you're willing to pay for it 🤑

[shrewd parcel]

What do you guys think about the defending Situation ?

[misty ore]

The players arent juiced at the start like last years

[olive wharf]

gang are we okay?

power curve = stat boost

[vestal adder]

no we ain’t

[olive wharf]

ur still welcome to spend money if u want

they never said we dont wanna make money

[quaint stag]

Bla bla bla

[wintry silo]

Agility and stamina also important to look at. Fatigue players with high pace still slow

[olive wharf]

they just said the boosts will be lower

which seems to be true

[vestal adder]

n giving everyone a free icon as well like what

[olive wharf]

from what ive seen

[shrewd parcel]

Do you like the defending Right now or do you Not Like it

[wet surge]

85 icon btw

[olive wharf]

it wasnt free....

and slippy g doesnt even make my team rn

[misty ore]

If it was last year chukunweka
Would have been 86 with 84 and 85 squads

[plush plover]

if you payed for it lol

[olive wharf]

yessir

[quaint stag]

Im not def i know that

[plush plover]

Defending is good, just need to learn it

[olive wharf]

bro they even lowered the boost from showdown

that is slowing the pc

idk what people are complaining ab

u always had the ability to spend money

every fifa i played

[misty ore]

Also these guys complaining about power curve if it stayed the same you would face full juiced teams week one instead of golds soo just stop

[shrewd parcel]

I also like it as it is but i See so many people commenting that they cant play it because „There is 0 defending“

[vestal adder]

fc25 < fc26

[plush plover]

only complain I have is same bugs as last year, and the new anticheat seems to be crap cause theres hackers already lol

[olive wharf]

yea

also i feel corners

[quaint stag]

Game play is good until u get to sweaty divs then its just repetitive imo ofc .

[vestal adder]

i just turn off cross play

[olive wharf]

and kick off

[shrewd parcel]

Pick did a video on that

HES always Right

[olive wharf]

those two things needs a bit of tuning icl

[vestal adder]

saw him doing 4-1-2-1-2 before and i was like what

[plush plover]

Yeah the ones complaining are poeple who cant defend and expect AI to do it for them lol

[vestal adder]

bot formation

[olive wharf]

nah

u didnt just say that

this kid aint og man

[quaint stag]

Clueless

[shrewd parcel]

Best Formation ever

[misty ore]

This is the first fifa where i used my own tactics and im scoring goals left and right

[olive wharf]

every fifa i start with 41212(2)

warra formation

[vestal adder]

narrow or wide

[quaint stag]

Narrow

[misty ore]

False 9 op

[olive wharf]

yea ive heard this bro

[vestal adder]

yh i use narrow n it’s amazing but wide no no no

[quaint stag]

But the formation doesnt work in high divs . In div 4 you only play 1 formation

[misty ore]

I got diani she ++ on false 9

[vestal adder]

lemme guess 4-2-1-3

[quaint stag]

4231 its so tiring ppl gotta use cdms

[olive wharf]

i got bellingham untrad, u reckon playing a flase 9 striker with bellingham on shadow striker would be a play?

[vestal adder]

yh she’s unreal

[quaint stag]

4231 4213 same shat

[vestal adder]

her and durmornay wow wow wow

[misty ore]

What im running is diani false 9 wirtz shadow striker players dont expect wirtz to be the main goal scorer 🤣

[vestal adder]

it’s just the same old same old every game

[olive wharf]

yea bro my bellingham has better positioning and finishing than my first owner strikers

[misty ore]

Also tonali scroing crap tons from cdm 🤣

[olive wharf]

currently he is my goalscorer

[vestal adder]

honestly tho guys gyokeres or isak

[misty ore]

Box crusher is great

[olive wharf]

w role

w tonali

[vestal adder]

also has anyone used versatile on anyone this year

[misty ore]

Need patri on that role

[quaint stag]

Yeah Thats why i said even if the game play is decent its repetitive cuz you cant rlly use what you want withouth cdms you get abused

[olive wharf]

tried my fullback on that

idk

they just did nothing

[misty ore]

I run wingbacks

[olive wharf]

xD

[vestal adder]

🤭

[olive wharf]

went back to wingbacks

[ruby latch]

I feel like any bought card could drop in price 😭
Market crashes

[vestal adder]

tell you what tho having one of my cb on centre half aggressive OMD

[olive wharf]

thats what i am worried about

[vestal adder]

he just wins that ball so much 😢

[olive wharf]

im really fighting my arsenal fan demons and resisting buying gyok rn

[misty ore]

I get tempted to sell my bacha got her for 15 or smt she up to 30

[misty ore]

You can literally use the enforcer playstylr and spam l2 while dribbling

[vestal adder]

[quaint stag]

Rewards r terrible

Gameplay is pretty simular to back then

V

O

T

E

[vestal adder]

what?

[olive wharf]

yessir

[shrewd parcel]

Couldnt send the Message man they blocked it

Poll

[vestal adder]

rip

[vestal adder]

how tf are people putting neutral are they brain dead it’s so bad

[shrewd parcel]

Why

[olive wharf]

aint no way lad

[vestal adder]

it’s like my defenders have no legs

[shrewd parcel]

Defending is amazing Right now

[olive wharf]

im assuming u put underpowered

[olive wharf]

+1

[vestal adder]

oh fck yeah

[olive wharf]

seek help

[vestal adder]

i put somewhat

[shrewd parcel]

You need to time your tackles Right

Then you Are fine

[vestal adder]

every game i play someone who waits for me to bite and the second i do bang 1-0

[olive wharf]

so what do we do then?

switch to ur dm

[vestal adder]

Cry

[olive wharf]

add pressure

and then time the tackle

instead of biting and saying its the games fault gang

[shrewd parcel]

Couldnt have said it better

[vestal adder]

it’s just so boring and frustrating watching someone do the MOST for 0 reason

[shrewd parcel]

Right now at the State of the Game the result is 90% Because There is a skill cap between me and the opponent and Thats amazing

[vestal adder]

tried that got me in the same position

[olive wharf]

tbf thats how i felt ab fc24 and25

i would dribble and create so much space

just for my opponent to not care

cause his ai would cover

yall deserve this whooping icl

[shrewd parcel]

And then there is that Van di ck that just takes the Ball Off you without Even selecting him

[vestal adder]

it’s good they removed ai defending so you do it more yourself but fck me i didn’t realise i needed a PhD in standing tackles

[vestal adder]

virgil van maguire

[hushed wadi]

people who relied on ai defending too much getting exposed in 4k and I’m here for it 🍿

[olive wharf]

this year?

[vestal adder]

uh huh

i’m guilty

[shrewd parcel]

Last year

[vestal adder]

idc

[olive wharf]

yea last year defo

i played vvd one game this year

[thin marlin]

yo guys quick question

[olive wharf]

that guy was clueless bro

xD

he quit at 8-1

[shrewd parcel]

This year vvd is pretty balanced

[thin marlin]

for those in playstation 5, do you play on ps5 or ps4 version?

[vestal adder]

i wanna try him but i don’t wanna pay that much

[hushed wadi]

Ps5

[shrewd parcel]

Slow but physicallity and defending Helps him

[vestal adder]

haven’t tried ps4 version yet

[shrewd parcel]

Ps5

[olive wharf]

i feel like he will work if u know how to defend

[vestal adder]

better than vdv

?

[olive wharf]

specially with the intercept now

[shrewd parcel]

For me yes

But the worst thing are the price ranges Right now

[olive wharf]

i need saliba tho icl

that anticipate gonna get the ball so well

[vestal adder]

tried him and it felt like he was towing a caravan behind him

[olive wharf]

even hincapies slide tackle is insane

[dense trench]

just saw the tweet.

EA PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE DEFENDING .

We are finally having some FUN after all these years playing ea fc/fifa.

[vestal adder]

oh yeah when he eventually caught up it worked a dream

[shrewd parcel]

I have gervinho, doumbia and sissi and cant Sell them because i am waiting for pr to be adjusted

[vestal adder]

how much money have u spent gng

[olive wharf]

im sensing ur a pace abuse player

[shrewd parcel]

Go to the poll

[vestal adder]

possibly

[olive wharf]

who is struggling without the ai handholding

[shrewd parcel]

Got vini at the start

[vestal adder]

possibly

[olive wharf]

xD

[vestal adder]

guilty 🙋‍♂️

[shrewd parcel]

Go to the poll

[vestal adder]

https://discord.com/channels/1164979454557290546/1328800571402096794

[shrewd parcel]

Thanks

[dense trench]

yeah im there but i really dont know which one to choose so they keep it as it is. neutral?

[vestal adder]

yeah

[shrewd parcel]

Neutral i think is to keep it as it is

[vestal adder]

that’s winning by a fair margin

[shrewd parcel]

Like its not op and not up just right

[olive wharf]

bro people voting op are a menace

[shrewd parcel]

Pretty close tbh

[dense trench]

Btw a "Should we change defending in FC26" poll with only "yes" and "no" options would be WAY EASIER EA lol

[vestal adder]

i wanna meet the people who put very overpowered

24 of them

really

[shrewd parcel]

They dont like it easy

[olive wharf]

xD

[dense trench]

haha yeah I see

[olive wharf]

hey maybe they are gods at manual def

we dont judge

[vestal adder]

defo got dorito dust in their joysticks

[drowsy ferry]

is the web app down?

[olive wharf]

im happy with my neutral

[vestal adder]

wouldn’t be surprised

[shrewd parcel]

But guys if you are able to snipe gervinho and doumbia and sissi do it they are UNBELIEVABLE GOOD

[vestal adder]

i’ve heard very good things about the 85 sissi

wish i got her

[olive wharf]

bro honestly i just think sissi and cha are just overhated

they look really good

[olive wharf]

+1

[misty adder]

Lol 1 of that is me. Defending needs a bit of nerf. Everyone is just running around with CM/CDMs. Letting AI do the work. My L stick is going to break if I keep spinning like a beyblade trying to get around them.

[olive wharf]

i didnt want kroos or slippy g

and i got ofc

[vestal adder]

stuck with fckn b u m c u m

[olive wharf]

slippy g

[quaint stag]

Fr dude

[vestal adder]

a beyblade 😂😂😂😂

[shrewd parcel]

Doumbia div 5 rn 76 matches 122 goals
Sissi 36m 31g 42a
Gervinho 7g 9g 3a

[quaint stag]

The cdm defending is so annoying

[olive wharf]

we have met the first superhuman

known to man

[vestal adder]

jesus what tactics are you running

[shrewd parcel]

4231(2)

[quaint stag]

On a real note hes right the only runs you gotta track are the L1s cuz the default ones all you gotta do is control the dm

[vestal adder]

hmmm might have a gander

[shrewd parcel]

With the new Patch you gotta do more work

Right now its amazing how good Runs they make

[vestal adder]

thing is i’ve not vs one person who player locks yet and idk how

[quaint stag]

You play with LW or LM? Cuz midfielders arent doing anything

[olive wharf]

idk maybe im too tragic to notice icl

felt same to me

[shrewd parcel]

They are in div 3 2 1

[vestal adder]

thank fck

well out of my way

[shrewd parcel]

Did you get the new Patch ?

[misty adder]

It feels like I am back in fifa 19 where touching your CBs is taboo.

[olive wharf]

i played a few

[vestal adder]

what new patch

[olive wharf]

dont think its that important this year

[vestal adder]

a new on already?

[olive wharf]

cause l1 r1 works equally well

[vestal adder]

good cause it’s vile

[quaint stag]

Player lock is jus another level of skill

[olive wharf]

very rearely do u need locks

[shrewd parcel]

The one Where they nerfed the low driven shots

[vestal adder]

only pros and virgins use it

[quaint stag]

Ikr and they call it manual defending lmao

[shrewd parcel]

Came out a few hours ago

[olive wharf]

i use them

and it works really well

[vestal adder]

controlling your cb this year is a straight loss

[olive wharf]

i used to use them back in 19 too

[quaint stag]

You play with wingers right and yes i got it

[shrewd parcel]

Maybe you concede because you dont touch them ?

[olive wharf]

that is manual defending

[vestal adder]

just bring back fifa 15

remaster it

[olive wharf]

u time tackles

[shrewd parcel]

4231(2)

[olive wharf]

and track lanes

cut out passes

thats how it works?

hence

[shrewd parcel]

Yeah

[olive wharf]

manual

idk

[mortal silo]

Does anyone know why my ai intercept or block nothing? They just stand there and do nothing. And there are times where they will just run over the ball without making any contact with it or the opposing player

[misty ore]

Does anyone know if players lose ingame stats if they play in not know positions?

[olive wharf]

xD

[quaint stag]

Who says im concending . Im saying if you touch them its worse in the majority of cases simple

[olive wharf]

welcome to the convo lad

[vestal adder]

anyone think incisive is useless this year

[misty ore]

Its so op on wirtz

[vestal adder]

came against wirtz and he couldn’t string a pass together

might’ve just been the user

[shrewd parcel]

Its not because if you time your tackles Right you get the Ball without stupid rebounds

[olive wharf]

i mean the guy using it matters

[misty adder]

Thats why it needs to be nerfed. If only EA could turn off auto tackling or tone it down, this game would be a solid 8 for me.

[vestal adder]

i was gonna buy him until i saw that

[quaint stag]

Nah but fr my totti cant make a pass to save his life sometimes

[shrewd parcel]

On sissi she also does some weird animations

[misty ore]

He a monster

[olive wharf]

bro got totti and hes complaining

[vestal adder]

you got totti wow ggs to whoever plays you

[olive wharf]

im actually at a loss of words

[quaint stag]

Dude listen nobody is saying that the tackles r bad i love the tackles

[shrewd parcel]

Better than musiala

[strong depot]

Guys I'm done im actually done advanced defending is glitched 100% i can't make a shoulder challenge bruiser plus doesn't work x button is useless when I'm side to side using pacho (bruiser+) and getting bodied by a 5 ft random woman

[shrewd parcel]

Damn

[olive wharf]

dont use advanced

[vestal adder]

what is everyone using advanced or tactical?

[olive wharf]

i switched to tactical

[misty ore]

I got khan only good for chem cant save a beach ball if it was going towards him

[olive wharf]

works much better

[vestal adder]

i might have to try that then

i’m still on advanced

[misty ore]

Idk if you guys know but there is a bug with advanced

[mortal silo]

My tackle button seemingly doesn't work

[shrewd parcel]

Maybe it was Prinz with enforcer plus

[quaint stag]

All im saying is in the majority of cases if you move your cb you are done for good

[vestal adder]

his 85 or whatever is godly

[shrewd parcel]

Do your cb have jockey playstyle?

[misty ore]

I got that one from preorder doesnt save anything for me have a glove on him

[olive wharf]

bro icl

[strong depot]

Even using technical it never triggers the bruiser plus padge

[olive wharf]

everytime i add glove

[strong depot]

It's crazy

[olive wharf]

my keepers forget they have hands

[quaint stag]

Nah havent unlocked the market yet too im using shat defenders

[misty ore]

The x or a on advanced def isn’t working properly

[strong depot]

And I'm timing it perfectly side to side

[olive wharf]

just use basic

[vestal adder]

it seems in this game when you come against a keeper he’s unreal but when you use him it’s like he’s got poppadom wrists

[shrewd parcel]

Get mario gil and agabadou when you unlock it then your mind will change

[misty ore]

I only use him for chem and thats it

[quaint stag]

Havent figured out his best position my grandmother is faster than him

[vestal adder]

how does one unlock a market

[shrewd parcel]

Keepers with the rush out ps+ work really well for me

[misty ore]

I hope he will be good once hes 91 rated

[quaint stag]

Objectives ?

[olive wharf]

jesus

lord have mercy

[vestal adder]

wait what really? i didn’t realise it was locked for anyone

[quaint stag]

New account

[vestal adder]

ahhh

[misty ore]

Its locked for new players

[vestal adder]

makes sense

[olive wharf]

bro prolly got a high meta icon if not up there with meta defining

and hes still complaining

[shrewd parcel]

The objectives are kinda overkill tho

[quaint stag]

You are on hate Watch buddy calm down

[olive wharf]

you cannot be helped

im glad ur marmoush cant run

xD

[misty ore]

Who

[vestal adder]

i was using ekitike and he was god awful

[olive wharf]

oh yea defo

i didnt like him

[misty ore]

Eketike in cam better than striker fr

[olive wharf]

too inconsistent

[vestal adder]

switched to gyokeres and feel like getting a rope

[olive wharf]

hes finishes aint great

[shrewd parcel]

Ayoze Evo is good

[vestal adder]

idk whether to swap to isak

[olive wharf]

i loved gyok

[quaint stag]

all i said is I havent figured if i prefer him as a CAM or False nine and @olive wharf went mad

[olive wharf]

but i also support arsenal so

[shrewd parcel]

Gyok is the Best so far

[misty adder]

Pina is excellent if you need a striker. She is like 6k and has low driven+ with 5 star weak foot.

[misty ore]

What icon?

[olive wharf]

this

[quaint stag]

Totti 85

[olive wharf]

totti

[misty ore]

Bro totti is a beast

But in cam

[olive wharf]

gang u said

i quote

[misty ore]

Maybe 88 good as st

[olive wharf]

my grandmother is faster

u need help brother

[shrewd parcel]

Has anyone tested gyok and Isak and can say whos better?

[olive wharf]

gyok

isak is ehhhh

[misty ore]

I know low driven finnes from the side op

[quaint stag]

Is a 81 pace player supposed to be fast ?

[shrewd bloom]

which evo

[shrewd parcel]

Idk there is one that makes him a 85

[quaint stag]

Jesus dude you dont even have te player

[misty ore]

Its the 30k one

[misty adder]

In this game, no. However depending upon the situation yes.

[olive wharf]

paid one prolly

[shrewd parcel]

Yeah 30k

[quaint stag]

Yeah Thats true but tottis best attribute isnt his pace Thats why i said that

[olive wharf]

aight bro lemme tell u smth w totti

use l1 stepover

[misty adder]

Im use Pina who has 79 pace as an LM. Thats plenty of pace to make space.

[olive wharf]

or roulette

and then accelerate w totti

[quaint stag]

Dude r u serious

[olive wharf]

he breezes defenders

his accel is good enough to beat anyone

[misty ore]

I love the new elastico yamal does it so cleanly

[olive wharf]

u just need to use him like totti and not adama

[shrewd parcel]

How do you do it ?

[misty ore]

Hold l2 and do an elastico

[olive wharf]

u like yamal ig?

[quaint stag]

Totti is a card to use for Passing and driblling I have 150 goals with him and 90 games i think i know what im doing mate

[misty adder]

Who needs L1 when you can just spin around like a beyblade to get through.

[shrewd parcel]

Does it have a name so i can see in a TikTok or so

[misty ore]

Yamal on hunter a beast

[olive wharf]

true

[shrewd parcel]

Div 10

[olive wharf]

damn really

idk somethign ab his card just puts me off

[misty ore]

Just search neew elasitco fc 26

[misty ore]

Prob the pace

[misty adder]

I wish lol. At least I wont play against people just holding their CM/CDMs

[misty ore]

But his r1 so good and the agility

[olive wharf]

nah i just dont see it as worth 300k

[quaint stag]

Div 10 is Hella fun

[shrewd parcel]

You guys think gyok will still Drop in Price?

[misty ore]

Oh deff not worth that much i packed him untradr

[shrewd parcel]

Or should i pick him up for 199

[olive wharf]

been debasting this for an hour

[olive wharf]

ahhhhh i see

[quaint stag]

Div 4 is shocking dude every game makes you question reality

[misty ore]

Messi is probably a better card than him

[olive wharf]

people are raving ab messi

[shrewd parcel]

He cant Drop that much because hes Pretty much the Best ST until 1.5 million

[shrewd parcel]

Messi at cam is very good

[misty adder]

Better than the first 3 days of tournament? Everyone was controlling their CB back then. It was so much better unlike now.

[misty ore]

Gyko is only good if youre good at the game

I locked him down so many times

[olive wharf]

thats with any striker

his runs are amazing

[quaint stag]

Yeah once ppl get the Hang of it it Will be Ea fc 25 all over again no more high scores

[olive wharf]

when hes in stride its hard to push

[shrewd parcel]

Dont you just have to pass him the Ball in the box hold L2 Turn to the goal and Score ?

[olive wharf]

and he can also hold up play really well

[olive wharf]

and this

[misty ore]

U can do that with anyone who has enforcer

[olive wharf]

if ur able to read movemenet u can shut down any striker

[shrewd parcel]

There is only Like 5 Players that have it

[misty ore]

Diani has it

[shrewd parcel]

Not as a plus

[quaint stag]

What div r u btw i feel like we share same opinions on the game Thats nice

[shrewd parcel]

And her Body Type isnt the Same

[misty ore]

The dude from gladbach has it

And hes 82 rated

[olive wharf]

xD

yea bro hes most def using him

[misty ore]

Need to test him out for as target forward

[shrewd parcel]

Yeah but 67 pace

2* skills

[quaint stag]

Fodder

[olive wharf]

dont hate bro hes trying

he can do a ball roll aight

[misty adder]

Lol im div 7 at the moment. In my defense, i have only played like 15 rival games. I mostly play the tournament.

[shrewd parcel]

Pretty close to an elastico

[olive wharf]

xD

[shrewd parcel]

Fk it i‘ll bag one gyok for 199

Cant Drop that much

[olive wharf]

i hope u make money

i wish i was as brave as u

[shrewd parcel]

I have 1.7m

[olive wharf]

that makes sense

i no longer wish u make money

xD

[shrewd parcel]

If he drops 50k it wont hurt that much

😂😂😂

[quaint stag]

Tourny is hella fun rivais is so shat repetitive game play

In tourny ppl try other things i feel like

[shrewd parcel]

I agree on the Part that its fun

[quaint stag]

Not on the part that ppl try new things on it ?

[olive wharf]

waitttttt

i just saw a post

griddy isnt a celebration???????

we had to unlock it last year?

what

[shrewd parcel]

If you didnt do the objectives

[olive wharf]

bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[shrewd parcel]

Yeah

[olive wharf]

there goes half my gameplan for champs

[celest rivet]

Hi

[shrewd parcel]

Just do the L2 Right stick to the Right then Left

He will go to sleep

[olive wharf]

im doing l1 up down rn

they start dancing

[shrewd parcel]

l1 and hold up ?

[olive wharf]

flick right stick up and down

[shrewd parcel]

Ahh gotcha

[misty adder]

Yeh i can feel that. 4213 seems very common in rivals. I just played enough to get rewards. Couldnt be bothered to push just yet.

[soft rose]

servers are down?? cant login pc

[shrewd parcel]

YOOOO JUST SNIPED NUNO MENDES FOR 188k

[misty adder]

EA wants you to touch grass

[quaint stag]

Broken tactic the wingers make some of the craziest runs sometimes

Other times they sit there doing nothing

[shrewd parcel]

I‘ve Never played against 4213

[quaint stag]

Yeah

[shrewd parcel]

Its rare

[quaint stag]

It aint you only see 4213 and 4231 in rivals dude

And 442 sometimes

[mortal silo]

For people that ai defend etc it's perfect for them as the two cdms come so deep

[shrewd parcel]

I only See 4231 and 4411

[misty adder]

I don’t mind wingplays but i need variety. In previous years i used to play 41212(2), 4231 and 442. I am tired of 4213

[quaint stag]

If he plays 442 you are gonna get cooked

Ppl who play that formation r so good

[mortal silo]

The only formation I can get a tune out is 41212 narrow

[shrewd parcel]

Tbh 4231 is Pretty much the Same with the Right roles

[misty adder]

Oh and 451(2). That formation was just 🔥

[quaint stag]

No variety you either play dm or your midfielders just dont know How to track Back

[quaint stag]

I like diamond but i get no runs with it

[mortal silo]

I can't stand the 4213. I feel it's too isolated in attack

[misty adder]

It works for counters but otherwise it sucks for possession play.

[quaint stag]

In this game I have placebo dude i cant play with a tactic for more than 10 games

[misty adder]

Yeh thats the annoying part. 442 is such an awesome formation but defending is non existent with it in this game.

[mortal silo]

I've been playing ultimate team since it first came out all those years ago. Counter attack has never been how I play

[quaint stag]

442 makes me rage so much

The wide mids make fake runs

[mortal silo]

Every time I play against 442 I get suffocated

[quaint stag]

Its so dumb

[shrewd parcel]

Defending is fine you just got to get used to it

[quaint stag]

They like start running then go Back

Wtf is that

[mortal silo]

Just won a rivals game 6-4 lol

[quaint stag]

For sure but when i play it i have no midfield

[mortal silo]

Yep I can never get it to work either

[mortal silo]

How can I get used to my tackle button not doing anything?

[quaint stag]

And like i just havent figured out if i prefer counter balanced or short Passing istg im always switching like a brainded

[quaint stag]

They Will say skill issue

[shrewd parcel]

Tf do you mean your Button doesnt work

For almost anyone here it works perfectly fine

[mortal silo]

Of course it works. It just doesn't work when I want to tackle. I press and it does nothing. Others posted the same earlier

[quaint stag]

On pc that is so frequent

[shrewd parcel]

I havent had that Happening for me

[quaint stag]

Pc sucks atm dude

[tribal anchor]

should i hold onto balde or is he gonna drop tommorow?

[shrewd parcel]

On pc it doesnt count because there is Everything fckd up

[quaint stag]

The controller just stops working mid game

[shrewd parcel]

Almost Everything should Drop

[quaint stag]

Plus istg the game play is Nicer on console this year

Ive disabled crossplay the console rats r moving diff

[shrewd parcel]

What is istg

[quaint stag]

I swear to god
