       How to implement custom tactics.
       --- Quote from: TWS001 link ---
       >
       > To make or update tactics or view what one each club team
       uses, just start a single player match on the main Fifa menu you
       get when the game loads. Once you've chosen team go into team
       management. One of those options that appears is Custom tactics.
       Here you can make them and save them. To assign them to your
       dpad, go to quick tactics and you can assign up to 4 of your
       saved ones to replace the Possession, Counter Attack, and other
       two preset ones you have.

       Think this why I'm loving all these Italian CM's. They seem
       perfect with it. IF Aquilani, Montolivio, IF Cigarini,
       Marchisio, and the foreign Serie A CM's, Borja Valero and
       Pizarro. Looking at IF Conti next and also IF Borja Valero, if
       he gets cheaper when the upgrades come. They all have great
       passing and good work rates for the 433(4) apart from Valero
       maybe,and can set any of the more advaced players loose in an
       instant. They can also hit great long shots.
       Has anyone used IF Conti? Seems like a great deep playmaker and
       will be decent hopefully in 433(5) which I want to attempt at
       some point. Would probably suit Borja Valero a bit better as
       well in 433(5) as one of the CM's in that.
       Do we have a tactics, work rates and formation thread to get
       deep into this sort of thing?

       Has anyone else had any luck, or felt their play, especially
       attack wise because we know how random the defensive AI can be,
       has improved using custom tactics?
       I have never ever touched them until around Christmas, and the
       difference is huge when you get a tactic that suits you. I
       really would recommend persevering with them and keep tweaking
       one until you get it right.
       Also I think getting good work rates in the right positions is
       very important. A H/M CM can be immense in one formation but a
       liability in another.

       As you know TW, I have tried them, but only for a couple of
       games, with the Turtle Tourney sides.  Didn't have much luck.
       I wonder if the formation makes a big difference also.
       As always with FUT, there are so many variables it's sometimes
       hard to know which one is / how many are broken..
       I will persevere.
       You have been using 433 predominantly with these customisations
       haven't you?

       Have used it to best effect with 433(4), and 442(2). Have only
       used 4312 in the tournament but that works quite well it seems.
       Also did well for a bit with 4411 and 451, but they're not too
       far removed from 433(4).
       What works well for me may not work for someone else though.
       Another variable is that I play on the co op camera at maximum
       height and fully zoomed out so I can see a large amount of the
       pitch and can see off the ball movement and positioning of mine
       and my opponents players. Some people dislike this but I got
       used to it playing pro clubs a lot last year. Helps with
       switching play to the opposite wing which is especially useful
       against manic high pressure. You can also plan 3 passes ahead
       once you are comfortable with it and control the match better.
       You can pull defenders out of position easily when you can see
       all your attacking players.

       Custom tactics does not work unless you put it on full on
       pressure extreme right or to the extreme left.
       Everything in between is just a placebo effect.

       adjusted the camera, height and zoom, as TWS suggested.
       better at passing now.
       still playing tele broadcast though...
