damn that UT record is good. I guess it's because I only use gold players that I face these ridiculously good teams?

Nope, there doesn't seem to be any sort of matchmaking going on, and it's entirely the luck of the draw who you'll be up against (I played four games with my two-star bronze team and was up against 5-star, all-gold teams every time). Utterly ridiculous.

 

[PrematureQuiche]

Anyone who is debating getting FIFA on PC just do it! Playing in the GAF pro clubs is so fucking fun man!

Damn that's bullshit. Fix that shit EA!


I preordered at gamestop and I just got my 2nd gold pack today. Also bought 2 since I had some spacebucks just floating on my account for ages (220 pts damn ms)

The controls are different than h2h ranked I'm sure

 

[Draconian]

So apparently my online pass file can't be detected. Tried redownloading it, doesn't work. Now I remember why I don't like EA.

Have you tried clicking on enter code when it says that your pass isnt working and then exiting the store straight away without entering the code. It happened to me a lot on FIFA 12 and that's how I got rid of it.

 

[AndresON777]

Is there a list of the celebrations yet? I want to do the matador thing when I score with Villa

 

[Awesome Animals]

Got to love losing because of lag

 

[AndresON777]

I'm like fucking liverpool when I play. There should be a mode where you get points for hitting the cross bar and posts

 

[RibbedHero]

Can you activate a copy of FIFA 13 from the US GreenManGaming store in the UK? Would be able to get it for £18.

I will try that next time. Thanks.

There is lob pass gold challenge.



I've reached the point where all I'm facing is people who abuse the skill stick and pace. There goes UT fun

 

[AndresON777]

Yeah I can't wait to do the skill challenges it's so much fun before a match. It's a cheesy game just be cheesy. It aint easy

 

[Awesome Animals]

Just got David Silva in a pack. Hahahahaa

FUCK YOU



-never mind I thought you said David Villa LOL

Did UT die for anyone else?

 

[InertiaXr]

Did UT die for anyone else?

Yes on PC

 

[AndresON777]

It died for me the other night when it was released in Europe. Fucking EA servers are dog poo

I don't play too much FIFA, but was disappointed to play a few online matches tonight and see that people still employ the strategy of mindlessly lobbing it over the top and running onto it. It's a good way to win against someone that doesn't play a lot (I did go 3-1-0, though!), but it's not football. Don't understand why that's enjoyable.

 

[joeygreco1985]

Of course it goes down when I'm in extra time in a FUT game. Theres 20 minutes I can't get back

Isnt that how some english teams play though?

 

[QuikZilver]

Pick Real Madrid since dude I was playing didn't want to budge from 5 star teams. He had Man city I completely mauled him 5-0 in the first 36 minutes of game time till he quit. Didn't do anything special just counter attack with speed. Feels completely cheap although deserved win. The guy was completely ass. This kinda feels like SSF IV: AE where playing versus low level players makes you fall into bad habits.

 

[G.Newell]

Off course UT goes down when im 6-1 up in a final of an online tournament with 5 minutes to go

 

[QuikZilver]

Shots fired.

I had trouble against this tactic last year.

 

[MisterRoboto]

i cant believe it counts as a loss when the servers go down mid game..unreal

 

[Shining Sunshine]

With that simple description, it's how Chelsea played.

Strong defense, send the ball to Drogba or Torres to score.

 

[JLG-]

Servers down? Just got booted from a clubs match. :*(

I was thinking Stoke or the national team in the euros

 

[Got the Shakes]

Doing maintenance I believe.

 

[Meier]

WTF, just finished a game where I won the MOTM and had 2 goals and an assist online and it didn't update any of my pro's stats or accomplishments! I got notifications during the game and at the end but nothing updated. Fuck you, EA! :|

 

[Fratkabula]

Only the club matches are working for me. None of the head to head modes work.

 

[brokenbeans]

Got Stevie G in a pack lastnight also Sturridge and Dembele.

Not gonna gamble my coins anymore, sat on about 60k now gonna let them stack now.

Really enjoying the sp divisions.

That's why I don't play head to head anymore. It's all about online team play

im in!

 

[Mr Cola]

i have just accepted your transfer request! Welcome, remember to download mumble if you can, its kind of a team requirement. Absolutely no need to talk but we need to communicate vital information ingame otherwise we can screw everyone over. Basically at times we need to organise a group quit from the game and if we do it before 5 mins then we get no penalty but after we auto lose. however if say 8 people quit and 2 dont then the game continues, those 2 are the ones not in mumble.

 

[JChalmers]

Apparently the game going down was for EA to do some maintenance;

During maintenance, we will address the following:
• Connection stability during matchmaking in Seasons mode
• Trade-pile issues in FIFA 13 Ultimate Team
• Users experiencing a disconnect while purchasing FIFA Points

Hopefully this means I'll be able to play Seasons mode now without being stuck in the Arena when its loading and having to restart. Managed one game on release day and that's it!

Roll on 5.30pm GMT tonight for me to get home!

 

[Awesome Animals]

Yea, but they didn't fix the critical issue where I can't get on the web app!

 

[Mr Cola]

they need to hotfix to remove rain from online play

OMG yes. 90% of my games are in the rain.

How's the PS3 club doing? Need a winger?

How's the PS3 club doing? Need a winger?

Well, asking in the thread would probably yield more results
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=42765201

But whenever we meet there arent more than 3-4 people on at the same time, so more people definitely wont hurt. We are still trying to find a formation that suits us, so if you notice winging doesnt give the results you want, feel free to switch a bit around. I tend to float between CAM and CDM atm.

 

[brokenbeans]

Damn it EA fix my FUT status I want my free packs.

 

[chancellor]

I just won div1 title in UT and got 8,000 coins and a premium gold pack which was a nice surprise. I'll open it tomorrow when there is hopefully better IF players out.

Just got David Silva in a pack. Hahahahaa

I so want him.

That's a nice prize not to mention the coins you make in previous divisions.

I'm glad they have given us more incentive to actually play games in UT.

 

[AndresON777]

Lol single player tournies against the cpu are the new hotness on UT.

you can play like 12 tournies before you hit legendary difficulty. Probably racked up like almost 3k coins on the first one and its amateur difficulty, lol

drilled the cpu like 11-0

Payback!

Does anyone know if EA has taken note of the bug where in 1v1 seasons you get stuck in arena and have to restart the game to play on?

It's happening for the majority of people, last night 419,000 people playing online for PS3 and only 36 matches being played online.

They apparently rolled out a fix would should sort out some of the connectability for online games but it seems like it's not fixed it

 

[Gueras]

I'm a novice on FIFA... I was playing ultimate team offline... got some coins and have bought 5 gold guys...

that was the problem when i went to play online, i'm playing against master guys with a lot of gold guys...

it sucks... there is no balance to choose a player against u...

If you can get to 100 chem, you should be able to handle your own against most teams.
