       Well, I gotta say.. playing a couple of nights now on 16 has
       reminded me why I quit 15 in the first place...
       Playing online against little sh!theads who just use any trick
       in the book to win, is simply the most infuriating way to spend
       four hours.
       They either go all out high pressure from the kick off, OR wait
       for me to go ahead and THEN go all out high pressure [slow
       clap].
       And with my players' inability to string three passes together
       in this new version, it takes the effectiveness of high pressure
       to a whole new level.
       I can't get out of my half, and I simply no longer have the
       inclination to try and figure out how to.
       No pleasure to be had playing this game online against these
       ar5eholes. What. So. Ever.
       Let them have their stupid fncking high pressure game...  I hope
       they'll be very happy together.
       Just serves to make me angry.
       After my brief slip, I am reverting henceforth back to my status
       of ex-FUTter.
       This gamer is a FUTter no more.
       This FUTter has ceased to be.
       Gaming that makes me angry is pointless.
       PS.  See how angry they've made me?
       PPS. I am going straight back to GTAV to mercilessly slaughter
       some shopkeepers and mow down some pedestrians to ease the
       aggression out of my system.
       PPPS. Enjoy your game guys.  I quit (again).

       Aw Nop.
       I thought near on 2 years gaming without 'randoms' might've made
       me super susceptible to that kind of rage but I think it's made
       it easier to take on chin so far. At 1st every little thing they
       did was irritating me, and still does to a point, one extra turn
       on the ball was all it took for me to start rolling my eyes and
       muttering twat... It's actually not been too bad, I've not
       received a single gloating or insulting PSN msg, which has been
       disappointing. Shame they still have the shush/violin etc and
       have now added the TV camera angle. Pillocks, everywhere
       pillocks.

       Damn ... 35k packs are decimating prices - no one spared. Well,
       maybe the very high ones are ok - not checked those.
       Pretty much a 20% dip in the club value. BUT ... opened the
       'free pack' and managed to halve that loss - got Lewandowski! :o
       [/quote]
       now thats just not fair :(  i need more Lewandowski in my free
       packs

       Yeah - it was a fortunate one! Probably the best ever in terms
       of those packs.
       Definitely made things a little easier on the 'club value',
       because it has been a big drop.

       Back from holiday and time to try out my teams and I'd like to
       give a balanced and rational view of the game but quite frankly
       it's the worst FIFA game I have ever played, it's utter garbage.
       Every aspect of the game is broken.i have no control of my
       players, they can't pass, shoot or tackle, it's like they are
       running in glue, the ai is atrocious, I've lost count of the
       short 5 yard passes I've attempted only for the ball to fly
       across the pitch to the opposition on the far touch line. My so
       called world class players wobble about the pitch as though they
       are tony Adams after a night on the lash, my defence is static
       and seems unable to even try to move into a reasonable position,
       my keepers are rubbish whilst when I do manage to fluke a good
       shot the opposition keeper fly across goal as if they are on
       tripwires. Right rant over time to play anything but FIFA

       Had plenty of games like that over the last couple days
       Sherlock, but following Eric's instruction and example, I'm
       gonna stay strong. Good sessions do happen and when they do, the
       football can be pretty great.
       Static defending is the one thing I've been most frustrated by
       in my many recent draws/defeats. Either they collectively stay
       put and allow the opposition free reign or the guy I'm about to
       switch to has quite purposefully stepped a yard or 2 AWAY from
       the good position he was in, effectively moving himself out of a
       tackle/shot block and giving the attacker direct line of sight
       to the goal. So I end up switching from a half useful position
       where I might apply a bit of pressure to a completely useless
       one, spectating the open shot.
       The passing AI can be very annoying too, missing the intended
       recipient by a yard and trying to find one some 20yds distant,
       helpfully positioned the other side of several opposition
       players.... Always a great way to set someone up for a deadly
       counter attack if you're particularly fed up with winning games.
       I do wonder whether messing with the assistance settings will
       clear both these up. I remember mucking about with them before
       to useful effect.

       Hi everyone : )
       Howz life? I hv been very busy in the last few months. New job
       since may, been working like a dog, overtimes etc. On the bright
       side, wife was at her parents summer house with the babies. So i
       had 3 months of "lone times" : ) at home and max of fifa and bf.
       Maybe some of you would remember, have left fut due price ranges
       where i was making like half a million a day with IF trading
       before the ranges. Lost appetite at some point... then we
       started to play a draft league among friends, said why not, a
       different version of fut (funny enough they implemented a draft
       version this year) anyway.
       Proud to say, i dominated it out of 12 leagues i managed to play
       in 9, winning 7 and a second place. It was a lot of fun.
       We said to do it with fifa 16 as well, my concern was the free
       time i could spare, wife and kids are back; job is still hectic,
       so i was the last of the bunch to get the new game. First tourny
       is down i am sitting on 7th out of 8 : ) so my throne is gone.
       They had already 200+ games while i did not have more than 20...

       So my view of fifa 16, it really is a good game, with a lot of
       flaws of course, but it is just growing on me.
       I am pretty sure fut is full of annoying kids. I do play a bit
       of fut draft tough since i have many accts i am using the free
       tokens : ) could bot get past 2 wins tough.

       Welcome back, good that all is well! The new game is such that
       if you haven't played from the start when it was released, being
       a month/few weeks behind everyone else, it is going to be a
       struggle learning the new game without getting a lot of losses
       quickly.
       It is a decent game I think, but if EA doesn't tone down certain
       things, high pressure/stamina top of the list, they will lose a
       significant number of people playing the game. It is beatable,
       but it's a lot tougher than previously, and there are a lot less
       viable ways to play to be successful. Even without lob spamming
       and pace being lessened, games are not of enjoyable as they
       could be in previous FUT's. Literally everyone uses crazy high
       pressure, and a lot of people have left the game from what I've
       heard.
       I think it is a big month for EA. The release of these big hero
       cards this early stinks of desperation due to fall in pack sales
       before the next set of accounts are due, which I believe is the
       next week or two.
       The gameplay patch is huge. EA need to get it right. They have
       to drop high pressure.
