Team PESGaming (PS3) - Fifa 12 Clubs

My opinion on ANY is taken from my experience with Fifa 10. I assume the engine/gameplay changes have made the game a lot harder to play as any then?

Yes a CPU any is best.

I would concur with Original. The problem Bammers is that the criticism wasn't even fair, not least in Jonno's case, as he only played two games, and to be honest I probably saw you and myself lose the ball more in those games than he did.

If we're laying our cards on the table, I will offer some thoughts. While I don't expect us to play down the flanks every time we attack, when we do find ourselves on the wing, I would like us to cross the ball more, in good positions (not delivering it at the byline or weak foot). Too often we cut inside and end up going the 'Arsenal' route. I didn't make my guy huge for nothing. And while I don't expect to receive every ball, I do think we should at least play to our strengths in the aerial department. If we're coming through the centre than feel free to pass through the middle, shoot, etc, but I just think we overlook crossing too much. I also think you should be cowardly and turn on assisted crossing if you don't have it on.

Also, I think I'm a lot better playing as the lone striker in a 4231 formation, with plenty of support.
I try to cross when I can but for some reason my VP seems to do better with his weak foot than his left. In particular this is most apparent when you see the countless poor corners I've taken in the past. When it comes to corners I think I'll stay in a bit more of a defensive position as my player is rather nippy and could be useful if we need someone to track back and stop a counter attack.

Okay, having heard what everyone's had to say, it's clear I was in the wrong with naming people, although I didn't mean any harm, and I apologize for that. I was also, most definitely, asked to who I was referring to, by someone, and I would like that person to come forward and tell us it was them. Regardless, I apologize for doing it.

Secondly, I'm sorry if people took my 'much improved' and 'upped their game' comments as being patronizing - I can assure you that they were only meant as a sincere expression of me recognizing that my concerns had been rectified and were meant as compliments.

As for the ANY-question, my personal opinion is that it's better to have a CPU ANY, because I feel if we have a human ANY, the team's performance hinges too much on that person's own skill level, rather than the overall skill of the VPs in the team, so I prefer CPU ANY.

Also, on the crossing thing, I often get my VP to bomb forward and get into the box for crosses. Obviously, if I'm playing as DM, this can leave us a bit exposed, if the other team are able to head the cross away and counter-attack, so do people think I should keep getting in the box for crosses or should I hold back?
 
Has everyone got a preferred position btw? Seeing as I won't be playing often I just don't want to stroll on and take someones place in the formation, but at teh same time I'm not a huge fan of the defending in this game, even though I got about 4 or 5 achievements for my defence with goal line clearances et al.

My apologies to Phatman from a while back. I was playing just a few offline games with a couple mates when you messaged me about clubs. At the time, I didn't have a VP as I had just bought the game, and I completely forgot to get back to you about it.

Made a VP now though, only played the odd offline match with him, mind, so he's still shit. I'd be up for making up the numbers every so often (I don't play much PS3 lately).

What position is 'vacant' so to speak? What position should I make him, in other words? I remember from the last time that all the forward positions were generally snapped up straight away by a select few, which is fine by me (I only use my VP as a forward in offline to get achievments).

So I take it you didn't beat those American cunts? I was pissed off I disconnected after the goal since I really wanted to beat them. They ticked every box - 'Press X Joe-no'.

Just break the final result to me gently.

Yeah it finished 3-1. By the end I think it was just me, Mike & Bammers. And we were all in defence..

I got disconnected at 1-0 down. Not by EA, but by ny router.

Felt bad, because the first goal was my fault. Got caught out of position BAD. Should have took Phatmann's offer of going to CAM *embarrassed*

I think if we've got that many on again it's important to leave any empty spaces (CPU) in defence, because we need all the bodies we can in midfield and attack. I'm guessing the fact that they were in the US must have affected the connections, since loads of us DC'd in that game.

I'll have to make my debut over the next few nights. Out tonight, in the pissing rain mind, so won't be on to demonstrate my shitness and make you all feel like Messi in comparison.
