FIFA 12

Loving the realistic purchases on that Man Utd save, SB.

Oh yeah, I bought Agüero for Barcelona.

I hate making signings that are unrealistic ! I am extremely fussy when it comes to CM for some reason. Bare in mind some of my later signings are based on club reputation

Errm, I just finished a career with Toulouse, had quite a good squad going.

I hate unrealistic signings too. I signed Periera (Valencia) for Chelsea and sold him 6 months later.

Yeah I always make sure the people I sign are linked with the club IRL or at least somewhat realistic (i.e. Same nationality as the club and/or it just seems "right").

Does anybody else notice the opposition getting harder the further in to a save you get? (no pun intended, getting harder, further in etc)

I never used to care about realistic signings. I do now though, when I'm a League 1/2 I never sign anyone outside of the UK/Ireland. Sometimes if a team or the nation the team is from has a tendancy to sign players of certain nationality I will e.g. Portugese league and signing South Americans.



@Jela - Easier because my team gets better...

It happens to me in the Champions League QFs.

Started a new manager mode with Hearts. After half a season, I get a message from Marius Zaliukas saying he's struggling to settle in the area and is feeling homesick. Zaliukas has been at Hearts since 2006

You also cannot sell him to a team from his home nation. Ridiculous feature. Got that with a few players who's nations are in the game and they are happy to leave for somewhere further away.

Only just started playing online, played 8 games, 6-1-1, but I've played Liverpool 6 times

One game I had 20 shots, 15 on target and 3 hit the post, he had 1 shot..

I drew 1-1

Get used to it.

Worst thing is, I was Belgium in that game and they paired me up with someone with Brazil. I thought you were meant to get equal teams

I was using Atletico Mineiro last night (3.5 stars) and got paired up with Dortmund.

They said that should be sorted for FIFA 13.

You get equal stars. Its not as bad if you play lower than 4 star teams or lower although there is a big difference from using the best 4star teams to the worst. Santos, CSKA Moskva or Sweden (examples of strong 4 star teams) don't require that much ability to win with due to the attackers they have at their disposal against most other 4 star teams.


I don't think thats something that should be fixed except maybe making the star ratings overall smaller, the gaps between low end 5 star bracket and the high ones is too big. so rather add a higher star rate systems, so Real Madrid, City, Barcelona, United, Chelsea, Bayern get 6 stars and can only get to play each other and the national teams that match up. Especially if they are bringing back ranked head to head play where all teams are mixed.

I seem to not be able to play my game in front of an audience, was playing at my friends and got him relegated to division 5 instead of getting him up as i said i could

If 1 person lags, does the other?

Depends, but pretty much yeah.

O, I feel bad for whoever i'm playing then

Just quit in the first 5 minute if this happens.

played a head to head match against someone who used Gladbach... he scored 4 goals on headers on me, i am extraordinarily terrible at defending headers for some reason.

Try using the special clearance thingy (the one that makes you attempt bicycle kick clearances).

I've been EA'd so frequently in the past couple of days. It's ridiculous.

My signal is awful but I tend not to get EAd for head to head ever, just clubs.

Finished my second season with Spurs. Won the league with 85 points, won the Champions League vs. Marseille, and I won the League Cup.

Top 7:
Tottenham (85)
Arsenal (82)
Man City (79)
Man Utd (76)
Everton (76)
Chelsea (75)
Liverpool (71)

Top 5 Goal Scorers:
Downing (Liverpool) - 21
Rooney (Man Utd) - 20
Alexandre Pato (Man Utd) -20
Mata (Chelsea) - 19
Huntelaar (Tottenham) -17

End of Season Team:

Downing on CM.

He is always in the top 10 scorers no matter what.

Is it possible to make, for example Kevin Mirallas have 5 star skill moves? Or is he stuck with his 4 star?

Think you could probably do it in edit player or creation mode.

I can't do it in edit player sadly, creation mode...don't I have to pay for that haha?
