I really suck

[Kombaiyashii]

I'm trying to get good at fifa but I am really bad at it

Here's how I play...

I usually play with Barcellona but if not West Ham or QPR.

I play with the mentality set on 'high pressure' for the whole game.

When Defending, I usually call for a team mate contain while trying to intercept passes with the player that I control. I sometimes move off that guy and then get another guy to push up the defence, not many players I've seen do it this way but I saw someone on youtube recommend it. Here's the video where I got my defending tactics from:

When I attack I usually leave two defenders back but most other players I pass and hold the button which makes them cut towards the goal directly after the pass.

When attacking I always seem to be up against a large number of defenders while when they are attacking, they get many breakaways or slip it in to a space that was being undefended, I never seem to be able to do this.

I don't know if you can help me from such little information, if anyone plays on the ps3, maybe we could get a few games and then give me some feedback where I could improve.

Any advice is very welcome

My advice would be to try different styles of play, different formations, changing your line up around, just experiment and the more you playthe more experience you get, playing against people better then you help you improve.

Komba I am finding similar frustrations. I have not played a lot online, but those I have often have 5 defenders by their goal, seem a ton faster than me, and seem to intercept without a problem. I have to assume its just my inexperience.

My PSN: Citsade - add me, maybe we can get a fair newbie game going.

I was **** first time i started play9ing online but played more and more and now i am a lot better, practice makes perfect .

 

[Citsade]

Should we all be using 5 defenders at the goal?

Fellas let me tell you a little about online FIFA, most everyone cheats by hacking the online squad files or using a lag hack. Its a complete joke and I never understood why someone would get any satisfaction when having to cheat to win. Just a heads up.

 

[Mint]

Im not clever enough to hack anything lmao.

 

[Citsade]

Is this across all versions? People do this on the PS3?

Is there a way to know if someone is cheating so as to quit the game early and save time? Which mode is the 'fairest'?

 

[Mint]

Id still try and beat them well i do unless lagging is stupidly crappy, makes them look even worse if you beat them while there cheating.

 

[jschuck12001]

I dont know about PS3 ver but its so easy to hack a VP and also the stupid lag hack works so that the game plays fine until you have the ball then the fps shoots down. I dont know how they do it but it was brought to my attention by a friend who is active on this forum but you can do a google search and read about it. Basically most people playing PC version are cheating when you get to certain levels of the game.

 

[Citsade]

Good thing I am on the PS3 then...despite how visually pleasing the PC version is.

So can someone tell me - should I switch to 5 defenders at the goal vs 4? Is this a cheap tactic?

 

[Kombaiyashii]

I was thinking today and I realised that because I'm left handed and right footed that I always try and shoot with the players right foot. My biggest problem is finishing, I actually get as many shots as they do at least but my scoring is absolutely atrocious. Obviously not everyone is left footed but surely this is holding me up as most people are.

Do you think this could be a big problem or is it just a minor one?
