I don't play Fifa much as I think the last two or three have been dreadful. I'm also not very good at it, so I always got a lot of pleasure from spamming lobs over the top to Walcott and spamming crosses to Kenwyne. The fact you now have to be "good" at the game isn't necessarily a great thing for people who don't have much spare time outside of work, and want to be half-decent without having to spend hours 'practicing'. Its like trying to become a professional darts or snooker player or something but then saying, well I havent got time to practice much so can you just make the game really easy so I can beat the likes of Phil taylor and ronnie o'sullivan!!! I'm not complaining that the game is harder. But you can also understand that, for those of us who only get to play for an hour or two a fortnight, it's not particularly enjoyable that those hours are spent getting dicked by 12 year olds who've nothing better to do than play Fifa all day. I'm not saying they should 'dumb down' the game, just observing that they'll probably lose quite a few casual players (which they probably couldn't care less about, as casual players don't fill EA's pockets with daddy's cash which they've spent on packs).

I only play a night or 2 a week (for 2 to 3 hours) and just play Ultimate Team seasons V the computer. Keeps me entertained!

I keep getting matched up against teams like Manchester United and Milan.
Pisses me off a little as I need to up my game nearly every time.

I had quite a few games - on FUT and online seasons - where every single player (most of them Gold) has an appalling first touch. The first touch of it seems all the players, pretty much all the time, would be like Diouf after 15 pints of Pedigree. A 5 yard pass results in a player mis-controlling the ball at knocking it 5-10 yards away.
Has anyone experienced this? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

Can only be 2 things really 1) Youre using R1(ps) or RB(xbox) or the first bump thing on top of your cnotroller(for idiots) which is driven pass. This puts a lot of power into the pass and should only be used for crossing powerfully or 30yard+ floor passes. If you use it too close itll be impossible for your player to control it. L1/LT is pass and move and then just normal pass is the button with noting else 2) Youre using R2(ps) or RT(xbox) or the second/back bump on top of your controller(for idiots) which is sprint. Some people get into the habit of holing it down all the time due to sprinting forward but thn also getting defenders back. If your player is sprinting rather than jogging or just standing his touch will be way way worse

Does this one work on fifa 16 pass it back to your keeper relatively hard and whilst it's approaching him till it reaches him hold rb

I daren't touch Head to Head, as I know I'll get absolutely walloped. I'm fine grinding solos and Connected Franchise

You need a hattrick for a winger/striker or at least 3 split between assists/goals Midfielders need assist/goals and defenders either need to be MOTM or score with clean sheet. Gomes will get in for his peno save, Sanchez hattrick, Aguero 5 and maybe De Bruyne for 2 goals 1 assist, depending if they put 2 ManCity players in.

Been playing FIFA for a while now and I've come to the conclusion that the changes they've been banging on haven't really been brought in at all.
One of the main things they've done is just reduce the amount of attacking movement AI controlled players make. It's very rare an AI controlled player will make a run past his man even if by standing still he is completely marked out as an option there just isn't any movement.
Player reactions have a clear divide as to when they're on the ball and when they aren't, most players when near a ball not intended for them react incredibly fast, mainly making interceptions and such. However, with the intended player the ball is meant to go to, they're lethargic, slow and have the touch & turning circle of the titanic.
When it comes to defending, the worst thing anyone can do is think they need to do the defending. Just control one midfield player and bring him back in front of the player on the ball just a few yards away (not so far that they can fire a long range shot, but not so close they can go past you with a skill move) and the AI will almost always do the rest for you.
I've not played as much PES but I'm getting seriously disillusioned with football games, I don't think we've seen anything meaningful in the adaptation of player AI in years now. There's still no distinction between players, someone like John Walters doesn't close down the opposition as he actually would, despite the stats assigned to him.

Give up playing them a good few years ago. They didn't improve much from PS2>PS3 and it doesn't appear they've improved much if at all again for the new generation. Yeah graphics have got better but the actual gameplay never really seems to improve. Whilst games of many other genres such as driving, first person shooters etc have come on leaps and bounds, football games have stood still at best.

Need some advice on whether it's worth getting? Play Seasons and Career mode, never Ultimate Team.
Has the longevity of Career mode improved at all? After 3 seasons it becomes so unrealistic and you could end up having a Galacticos side with Stoke whilst the top teams are seriously gash. Training thing seems interesting.

If you play with Stoke on seasons, you will consistently draw big teams like Milan and Marseille. Stoke are 4 and a half stars that's why, and then it has some leniency when picking opposition. Slightly infuriating when you get Dortmund.
