Fifa 09

[Lörd TH]

I'm finding the AI on be a pro really really aggravating and annoying!

You should have heard me when I chested that ball the wrong side; "SHOOT! DON'T CONTROL! SHOOT!"

Yeah, I was thinking that they must be cheating. It was just too farfetched for van der Sar to make 3 mistakes againt the same opponents. Don't know which one of his was the worse: The Massimo Taibi, the one where he just ran right past the ball and it bounced in, or the one where he literally hit the ball in to the goal, when it was going wide.

The team of the night for me was the guys who picked Valencia. They played some good football. Their movement was brilliant. Very hard to track. Although, I think if the throw went where I wanted to go (to Rafael), and not to the place where I didn't want it to go (to Ferdinand who had Silva right behind him), we wouldn't have conceded that early goal and I think the game would have been a lot closer. I can't explain the throw though. I guess I just didn't put enough power on it, so it went to the closest person. Was really annoyed with myself.

As soon as I saw the ball heading to me as Ferdinand I thought "Oh fuck" because he was surrounded by Valencia players and the ball came to my chest so I couldn't do much with it. I missed a couple of chances with Nani mainly because the guy doesn't have a bloody left foot. They were a very good team though. You could tell they'd played together a hell of a lot before and 3 of them chose to be fixed midfielders which worked very well.

The second match against the Inter boys was insane. Even after we converted the last minute penalty I thought they were going to equalise on 3 occasions!

The free kick Valencia scored from was a joke and should never have been given. Same goes for the red Vidic received, since they scored from the advantage. :faceplm:

The Juventus guys were pissing me off when they all did that rotating arm celebration together. Pricks.

I know we got battered by them, but I don't think they were that good. The problem is we got outnumbered. Having five active players makes a difference.

 

[Haribo]

The guy controlling Amauri was obviously a pro at using lobs. He scored a hat-trick of them ffs!

Who was the team who hit the woodwork about 6 times? :lol:

 

[Phatmann]

I can't believe we weren't awarded a win for that game where we were 3 or 4-0 up and our opponents quit. :faceplm: We're now only 2 wins away from getting the 10 wins trophy for our trophy cabinet.

 

[Bež]

I'll join your team, if you're looking for 1 more active player?

Long time ago since I last played BAP but I'll give it a crack nonetheless.

 

[Phatmann]

Club game tonight fellas?

 

[Charlie]

Just beat someone online with Derry City and New Zealand.

Derry City 2 - 1 Manchester United.
New Zealand 3 - 1 Manchester United.

This game is terrible.

Haha. You'll find that most hardcore football game players will be PES players. The more relaxed gamer will just pick up Fifa and play it here and there so the standard is much lower in Fifa games. The game has virtually no lag for me online though which is a major plus over PES.

 

[Lorenzinho]

So I'm currently playing a guy with Kaka, Zlatan, Messi and Gerrard playing for Real Madrid? What is this cheating fucker doing? And how?

 

[Joel]

If it is an unranked game, you can use the squads you have created.

I played some Liverpool fan and he had Messi and Eto'o on his team. I beat him 4-2 though, so it didn't make a difference.

 

[Lorenzinho]

It's a ranked quick match...

 

[Joel]

In that case, I don't have an answer.

How damn good were those guys who picked Brazil last night? It was a nightmare to mark them, as they passed the ball like Gods.

 

[Haribo]

I thought they were lucky rather than good. Most of passing seemed to be in the 6 yard box where Foster was struck by a force field.

You do realise that it's the captain of the team who controls when/if the keeper comes out, right?

 

[Fab]

Hello guys, I am interested in joining the club. I am a very good team player. How do I go about getting in and when do you usually play? PSN: Fabcio

 

[Phatmann]

We usually play some time after 10pm. I'll add you on the PSN and if we need another player I'll let you know through there.

 

[Ziss]

Do any of you lot do this on the Xbox? Spent about 5 hours on FIFA today, which is very unlike me.

 

[Phatmann]

I do have the game on the 360 but I've only ever played Nath on it, don't know if anyone else has it.
