The Ginger Prince Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Dunno if it gets the rest of you but this is what gets my blood boiling to f**k: - throw ins, ball goes out right beside the player, player then sprints 10 yards away to where ballboy has thrown replacement ball. - advantage, opposition player gets 30 seconds, I get 1 - keeper winning every single ball in the air, even if you've got Lacina Traore in your side - kick offs, pass to centre midfielder then lump it long, striker receives ball, goal - cutscenes at corners, pressing A to let your player proceed to take the corner only for the other boy to press it just after you meaning you pass it to the defender closest to the camera - strikers like Suarez, Eto'o, Negredo etc missing a simple 1 on 1 in the box yet opposition with the likes of Ramires, Lucas, Sandro etc can go right up the park and leather one in from 30 yards. - players who watch the full celebration and every single fucking replay. I've you've scored a decent goal, by all means watch the first one but not the whole episode - players who just fill their teams with pace and go down the wings/chipped through ball - Mertesacker/Terry/Vidic outpacing Suarez, Navas, Hazard etc. This game really riles me at times 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Are Pars Fans! Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I'd agree with all the above but also include: Stoppage time basically played until someone scores. The game is shocking in the rain Trying to get control of certain players is shocking then the game auto switches to some random nowhere near the action 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFC Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 If there's one thing that gets me seething it's the 'shhhhhh' celebration with the earcup at the end. Imagine Suarez doing that five times after scoring from a through ball chip then watching the replay three times. Other celebrations included the run to the half way line then doing gangnam style dancing. I just said out loud I fucking hate this game.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobBairn1876 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Can't be fucked with FIFA. Honestly, there's about 7 games in a row where everything breaks for me, get all the luck, win all the headers and 50/50s followed by 4 games where I get f**k all. Stupid. Hate the fucking thing. Servers are shite as well, anyone noticed that when you're searching for something below a certain BIN price, it never searches properly? Bollocks. f**k off EA. Hope you all get AIDS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginge123 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 The replay thing annoys me more than the celebrations. I'll usually just hit A from the time the goal goes in until the restart so the game can keep going unless it's a particularly weird goal then I'll maybe watch it once. There's a direct correlation between people with all EPL teams and this watching every replay behaviour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightscamera Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Celebrations don't bother me at all. In fact one guy had me in stitches with them. He beat me 3 or 4-0 and every goal he made the player run round and round my goalie, doing the twisty-hand-to-ear celebration. I cant understand how these people can remember what to press for certain celebrations, I just press a mish-mash of buttons until something happens and then try to get the thing to finish early. I also dont think ive ever watched goal replays, only when its some twat that has gone in front watching all replays only for me to end up winning by a decent margin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamdunk Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Pretty sure it's right for the sssh, then right + triangle for the ear cup, which are the only two you should ever be using. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1875 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I do know certain celebration buttons off by heart. Mostly the knee slides or flips. Celebration I mostly use is either the backflip or knee slide with arms out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreddieDaquin. Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 For the running celebrations - shhh is right on the analogue and ear cup is left on the analogue. To finish standing with your hand to your ear it's L2 and right on the analogue. I usually leg it to the corner flag giving it shh/ear cup then finish with the shoulder fall! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClathyDave Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Got to agree with We Are Pars Fans, I hate playing matches when it's raining. The game always ends up being absolute pish. Another thing that annoys me is some of the leagues appear to be really boring, notably the Ekstraklassa and Serie B. The last thing that really does my nut in is penalties and free kicks. I miss around 75% of penalties by kicking it right down the middle, even though I've tried to direct it. EA should bring back the free kick system that they had around a decade ago, the one where there was a picture of the ball and you could decide which part of the ball to kick. That was far better than the current hit and hope! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulises de la Cruz Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 The only celebration i do is the Cantona one which is RB and then tap B twice 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1875 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Can't believe I forgot that it seems the computer decides how good and bad your AI teammates will be, no matter what their OVR rating is Doing player career, at Bayern Munich with the likes of Robben, Gotze, Ribery & Rooney. Yesterday they were all amazing in every game (I only control myself in matches), sublime passing & running. Today it's like someone swapped them with Highland League players, utter dross; shite passing, barely any runs. Yesterday the Bayern defence was locked up tighter than a drum, no one getting near goal, only conceded from a penalty in the 10 games I played, today it's looser than Cheryl Timmons and everyone is getting in & scoring 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1875 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Can I add scoring a goal only to have the ref cancel it to award you a penalty, which you then miss? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobBairn1876 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Clear the ball, offside given the second your defender makes contact rather than wait to see if the offside player will actually be active in the play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1875 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Noticed this happen to me in multiple player careers; go on loan to a team but they refuse to play you, every game comes up with Sim Match instead of Play Match.... what's the point? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M0rtonfc Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 In the 2nd division with Corinthians who are 3.5*, down to the last game to get promoted and FIFA picks a game against Porto, a whole star better than me, guy just destroyed me, beyond livid. The only other things that annoy me are: 1. Offsides, when ever you try and play a quick ball if say you win possession your wee guy feels the need to be running back from an offside position, infuriating. 2. Corners, it's far too easy to concede / score from corners, every time you get one you know you have a 70/30 chance of hitting the target or going close with header. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Some of the footballs that you can choose to use on UT. In particular, the black and red one. I've got a decent sized HD TV and I can barely see the ball. They really need to sack this, or at least let you see which ball your opponent is using before the game starts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah this can get to f**k! Some guys I think purposely choose balls that are nearly impossible to actually see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
