I have 2 PKs in 3 games. Not sure how I feel about that.

One big issue I've had...I have a player kick the ball out of bounds and I get the ball. wtf??

ETA: Happens when I'm in the box. I'll take a shot, keeper blocks it, my guy gets it and tries to pass outside to my wide mids. It will go juuuuust over their heads and I'll get the throw in.

I know he's stout, but Swago has trucked Toure several times. Just straight up slammed into him and dispossessed him. another wtf

Guys, Jesus Navas is hilariously fast. He looks like fricking speedy Gonzalez.

Yeah he's quick. Aguero is too, but that is kind of expected.

Navas is absurd. Milner is pretty damn good too.

Anyone care to point me in the direction of some good FUT tips, tricks, tutorials, noob information?

I've never played FUT, just regular head to head matches with friends. Building teams, trading cards, etc seems fun so wanted to get into it.

So I just "pre-ordered" at 12:10 because I wanted the bonus 15 gold packs. I'm debating on whether I should actually pick it up tomorrow though because two engineering tests on wed and thurs...

First year i didn't go to gamestop at midnight in like 5 years. I think that's probably a good thing but i still don't like it. Probably won't get the game for weeks. Depressing

I haven't been playing UT for very long. In my limited experience, you can build a pretty ok team for cheap by snapping up regular gold cards for just over their base discard value of 300 coins. You can also flip them for a little more if you're patient. I've found Serie A cards to be cheaper in general. Remember that FIFA takes 5% of all transfers, so keep that in mind when you list players.

Just played my first two games online. Got my arse beaten 3-1, then beat some guy who did nothing but defend with rb and try to play through balls to Kevin Volland and Luciano Becchio.

Is the manager mode transfer market better?

The transfer and scouting system in 14 was my biggest complaint. Completely broken.

Does "first team quality" still mean 19 year old, 48 rating, third-choice at their current club player?

Do players you want to send out on loan actually go out on loan?

It happened a couple times for me. But at least when out on loan they aren't crying about not playing...

Depends on what kind of team you're playing with, I guess.

It was hard to find "first team quality" players after a few seasons with clubs like Roma and Atletico. You would get like Messi, Ronaldo and a few others you would not have a single chance at getting.

That's why I just have my Macbook open to SoFIFA when I play. Just like having the old system with the added benefit of seeing a player's potential.

So far I've had a few loaned players improve. Loaned them out before the first friendly and out of 12 or so ~5 have improved +1.

So far I haven't seen any absurd transfers if that's what you're asking.
