GreenManGaming has their 25% off coupons to lower the price. Some people were VPN'ing into Mexico to get a cheaper price.

Yeah, but they have the European Championships at least and Copa America I think.

Whatever they did to the ball physics they need to change back, it acts like a loving beach ball.

A few quick questions:

I own the game on PC and it runs really smooth but some of the replays and "someone is getting booked" cutscenes are kind of janky as if the framerate is greatly reduced. My PC is pretty high-end and isn't maxxing out so I assume the game is just a shitheap, confirm/deny?

I'm playing an offline season and at the end of games that I win all my dudes look depressed as if they have lost. Is this normal?

I haven't played FIFA since 12, have they got rid of Live Seasons or whatever it was called where you play a season according to what happened in real life each week?

Literally all of my games online have been reffed by Mehmet Yildiraz, whether I'm home or away, anyone else have this issue? Again the defense in this edition is poo poo and it would be at least halfway decent if pushpull tackles did anything like they did last year.

No shits will be given
DNF multiplier is broken as gently caress, it's stayed the same for 3-4 straight games.

Also my opponent hit the ball into the side netting and the commentators freaked out and said he scored a goal... then it was called offside. What the gently caress is this game?

Ha, good one.

I still feel that playing 1vs1 games is leaps and bounds more fun than in 14, although definitely also more random as 8raz said. The number of bugs is unfathomable though. Why don't player instructions I've set before the match stay in online friendlies, when they do in seasons?

Pro clubs however have been becoming intolerable for the last two games. Playing as a lone defender, there's slightly more you can do than in 14, but still not very much. We've had the best experience by stacking all the others in attacking positions, while someone controls all defensive players as an any. CPU controlled defenders are a joke, full backs don't even bother trying to stop anyone running past them with the ball.

EA needs to do a huge reworking of defense for next year. Since AI controlled players are so passive, you need to do absolutely everything yourself while trying to make sure several players are even remotely close to their positions. This leads to people just playing with five defenders and parking the bus in all game modes, since playing defense in other ways is so hard.

Lost my poo poo at the short passing skill game with the circle of mini goals. Nearly passed it but my final pass was deflected by a stray ball from earlier.

I have a question as a FUT novice. I have an MLS team set up in a 4-2-3-1 formation. However the game defaults to a 4-5-1 whenever I play and the formations I can select once in game are extremely limited. Is this a bug? Are there specific items in the market I need to acquire to change my teams default formation?

I put together a german team in FUT for the legend pack and it defaulted to my keeper taking all free kicks. He got an assist off a corner this way (I'm aware I can switch kick takers).

This is definitely something that is happening this year. I don't get it either. It used to not be like this.

Would anyone gift me the level 53 and/or 83 increased transfer list size? I'll send the best coin boost I can in return. PSN kddidit. Would be nice if was able to earn FCC or xp to get there myself. Thanks EA.

I don't think you can gift the coin boosts, are the increased transfer list boosts actually supposed to let you list more things at once because I have a 40 capped list but can only list 30 items at a time.

This game is kinda fun once you get over the fact that its the worst soccer simulation ever, that crosses and long shots are useless, and that you're just playing NBA jam by walking through the defense and unleashing sizzle t-90 net blasts every time you get the ball.

Replace t-90 with slow rollers through the goalies armpit and near post bullets. That's my experience.

Every time I play Pro Clubs and select RM it puts me in LM in-game but claims that I played RM. Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround?

That reminds me of this hint: when you play pro clubs, you can play as a forward or mid, but start your guy in defense and have your captain switch you to the forward role and you will still get the defensive accomplishments.
