Re: FIFA 23

Post by The Terminator »

I only play FUT, the rest of the modes might as well not even be there as I have absolutely no interest in them.

Every year I'm adamant that I won't buy it again, it can bring out the worst in me when I get obsessed and way too competitive. But I just can't help myself, I see a trailer, download the 10 hour free trail just to see what it's like, then lo and behold I'm ****ing out another £65 to EA and it begins all over again!

It's a proper love hate relationship that I have with the game but ultimately there's no other game or type of game that gives me the same sort of buzz that I get when I'm winning.

I packed a TOTW Mbappe a few years back and sold it for about 1.7m coins, I then spent the rest of the year pretty much changing my team every few games not caring what I spent as I never ran out of coins.

As for the gameplay this year, not a massive change from last year but that's no bad thing IMO, goalkeepers can still be the cause of massive frustration, their animations are at times still pretty awful.

I think the gameplay is better this year, but I cannot do it again. Rivals you only finish games you lose and Champs is played like people’s lives depend on it!

Yeah that’s happened to me three times in a row today. Gone 1 or 2 up and the other player forfeited. What’s all that about?

Tuned it off after the third time as seemed a bit pointless.

Seemed to become a big thing in Fifa 22. As you say I don't see the point. Watching a few streamers and seems to be lots of 5 at the back as well.

Think I'll skip this one and see what 24 brings

I understand why you ask, but I’m the chap who presses those two buttons on my controller as soon as the ball hits the net, like most normal human beings! :grin:

Can’t be doing all that stuff.

L1 + R1 (on PlayStation) skip straight to kick off? Yeah I do that, it shows people you mean business and want more goals :crossed:

Spent six hours trying to fix it and failed miserably. Ended up having to use a lead. Apparently this has been an issue for several years now.
how old is it? does it have Bluetooth? I found out there are only certain xbox controllers that have Bluetooth

if it does download xbox accessory app from the windows store, plug in controller and update the software on the controller

Yes... It's a common issue with FIFA and bluetooth controllers that goes back several iterations.
