re: FIFA 17 Thread

Still hit or miss for me but im in the top four of the table most the time.

Once you have better players it makes world class much eaiser.

I've got a Serie B save with the board asking for 20 million profit and automatic promotion. Da fuq.

If I had a nickel for every time I kicked someone's arse and lost in FIFA I'd treat myself to a steak dinner tomorrow. Just played a guy that beat me 1-0. His keeper was Joe Hart, who is notoriously average in FUT, and he had 19 saves. 19 fricking saves. 4 from inside the 6 yard box. There's rubber banding and then there's predetermining. This game really chaps my arse sometimes

Of course his goal was a tap in off a rebound that Neuer could've easily caught.

Yeah, they also want automatic promotion. 11m profit (highest rated is 72) is absurd for a newly promoted League One squad.

I just started a new one today after my St. Pauli career eventually turned into me taking over France with Monaco. I got promoted, finished 10th in the Bundesliga and then finished 7th in my three seasons there. Unfortunately, I didn't have nearly enough transfer money to push myself into becoming a legit European contender, and I didn't have a young player good enough to turn into a ton of cash.

So I left, and I later won the Champions League in 2021-22 behind the god Mbappe and a world-class level Morgan Sanson.

(I took the United job in 2022 just to see what they were like. Pogba was a 94, and Martial was a 91. They also had Lukaku, who was up to an 88. The Martial-Lukaku-Rashford front three was pure flames. Not fair, even on legendary.)

Decided to take the Inter Milan job for 2017-18 after simming this season with Porto (just somewhere I could step into a UCL contender after one year). I initially wanted Valencia, but they never came up in the offers from Spain.

Goal is to turn them into a superpower again. Just something different instead of building up a smaller team. The goals are gonna be insane once I start rolling with them.

ETA: Step one was bringing the prodigal son back home.

I've only played a few games and man I suck so far. Trying to get used to this tactical dribbling or whatever it's called when you hold both L2 and R2 down. Also can't seem to get crosses to go anywhere close to where I want them to go

Do you sim a lot of games or just have a lot of free time on your hands?

I probably sim half of my matches if I've built a team up like I did with Monaco. I sim most league matches against non-Europe contenders with good teams, just to get some variation of results. But I'm trying to play everything in this Inter save.

I like the managing aspect more than anything, which is why I should be a FM addict. (But I hate playing computer games after working on one for most of the day.) My 2K saves are mostly me trying out management ideas in MyLeague and simming through most games.

anyone ever do a league online? i'm in Div3 almost Div2. Looking for some people to play online with. I don't do FUT


PS4

They patched NYCFC and Orlando in during their first seasons as "Rest of the World" teams. They should do it with Atlanta.

Then, to play with them in career mode, you could swap them in for another Eastern Conference team. Not ideal, but the best you can do.
