I played a ton of 4-1-2-1-2 on previous games. On my Udinese career I had Muriel and Lacazette (bought cheap after a loan) up top with Adryan or Coutinho (whichever I could get cheaper & sooner). After a few years that team was sick.

This year I'm having good luck with City running the base 4-4-2 with a bit of tweaking. I upped the build up speed a good bit. It is such a strong formation for them. The way they play it probably better called a 4-2-4 since my LM & RM are rarely going back.


Jovetic----Aguero
Silva--------------------Navas
-----Fernandinho---Torre------
Clichy---Nastasic---Kompany---Zaba
Hart

Jovetic is absolutely FILTHY.

Bench is usually:
Dzeko
Negredo
Demichelis
Richards
Nasri
Milner

I bought Luke Shaw and Dybala in the first window. I loved Dybala in 13. He reminds me of kind of a younger and slightly more aggressive Aguero in some weird way

I know some posters were talking about how crappy the passing can be (I was one). If you turn the pass power assist to off it helps. You have to be more accurate with the direction but at least you won't have 'full power bar' passes dribbling 20 yards and being intercepted.

I just bought this game and wow it's pretty tough! I haven't played in about 6 years so there is a rather large learning curve for me.

How does one start a season say in the BPL? I don't want to play other people just yet, just me against the computer.

Play a couple of exhibition games and give it a whirl. You'll pick up on it pretty quick. The game plays pretty well out of the box but once you get the basics down try some good sliders. I'm using Orion's from operationsports and I like them. I tweaked them a bit since I don't have time for 15 minute halves but they're great.

5 min halves usually at most for me.. but then again I spend a ton of my time on formation tweaking etc

Lots of folks on OS do. I will play 10 every once in a while. I've tried 15 but I just can't hang in there that long.

Pardon the ignorance, but what is a slider?

I played for several(5 or 6) hours yesterday and could already tell I was getting better. Defense is way harder than I thought it would be. I've read a bunch of stuff online and done the skills practices and that has helped a ton. Can't wait to get home and play some more.

I play 10 on slow speed. With the correct sliders, you can get a more realistic set of game stats (shots, passes, fouls, etc.)

Was pounding some Chick Fil A in the Student Center after I left the AU game on Saturday perusing the Plainsmen while watching the end of the game and saw some of your stuff in there. CSB

I really enjoy it when I do play 10 or 15 minute games for just that reason. It just makes me 100x more pissed off if I lose. I hate spending an hour on one game only to lose

I would just hate to spend so much time on one match when a season has about 50 matches or you get the same amount of coins etc

Ok, I can't score for shite. I'm never able to get a clean shot off. Any tips for 1st time players on getting shots off? I'm getting the hang of defense, I usually don't get scored on now and end up in penalty kicks to decide a game. Frustrated!
