I got an invite to the FIFA 15 FUT Closed Beta and I may have played like 10 minutes of UT in the last 2 games

I heard 16 invites were going out currently. I never get invited to these deals, which is nuts considering the amount of FUT I've played and having a club since around FUTs launch, but who knows.

I wish we could get a TD league of some sort set up for FIFA. It's a shame that isn't possible.

I'm not great. Division 2-4 level player with this squad. Got to division 1 once and actually did alright, relegation standards in D1 are tough though. Haven't been back

Sure it's possible. We set up an NCAA dynasty on SECr with like 10 members

Yeah, I only got to 2 this year. Last year, I stayed in 1 on PC with a decent possession based Serie A squad and my super PL squad. This year, it's just a lot more difficult to be consistent.

I'd be down for a decent sized league with a point system in place. Even just a tournament would be awesome.

I'm pretty damn good at Pro Clubs and Co-op, but I am just okay when it comes to actually controlling the entire team. I find myself constantly frustrated with the AI players just not going where I want them to go.

We've gotten two pro clubs teams to D1, but I feel like if we had 5-6 people actually doing their jobs you would destroy people. For us it just usually leads to way too many people calling for the ball and bombing up field.

I'd really love a possession minded Pro Club. I know that's a lot to ask, but it's just so devastating when you force people used to just pacefesting to actually play the game. It's so fun to watch a bunch of guys playing too high and just using simple passes to make them question their life choices up to that point.

You, sir, are a man after my own heart. I love playing as a CDM and just being the base to move the ball every which way across the field to make idiots chase until they run themselves into the ground. Sadly, it's hard to get teammates on board with the idea.

In my experience, these only work seldomly. The team I'm on right now, we thrash almost every possession team we've played in Division 1. Unfortunately Fifa isn't real soccer and really the most effective way to win games in pro clubs is to know how to use the skill moves some (which I suck at) and run deep through balls.

It's bull shite, but that really is what works the most. As long as you don't run the swarm defense, you can limit what a possession based club can do.

It is why you see so many damn teams with 5 man back lines that park the bus once you get to these higher divisions. I refuse to park it out of principle

It is why my friend and I just shred people when we play. Simple 1-2 passes in the middle just gets these defenses all out of sorts.

I can't skill. It's pretty degrading when a guy gets to the edge of the box and then just morphs right through my back line, hopping and spinning, and just cooly passes it into the corner of the net. Cuadrado and Ibarbo squads are the fricking worst. I wish EA would dumb the skill moves down a little, or limit their effectiveness. You shouldn't be able to take over a game with an average player because he can playground dribble.


The most frustrating opponent though is that guy that takes the lead in the 70th minute and then passes around the back four for the rest of the game.
