Yeah, I'm gonna need to practice. Right now my settings are on Semi-Pro, with assistance, and I did some random slider movement, mainly in my favor. I got one match in before I had to come to work, playing as Real Madrid against some suck-ass Austrian team.
First time playing a full FIFA game since last time I played FIFA 10, probably back in early or mid 2011, and boy did it show. While I ultimately won 8-1, playing on 10 minute halves, pretty much all of my goals came on counterattacks. If I didn't get a counterattack, I couldn't do shit as far as getting the ball anywhere near the goal.
The final stats, I had something like 14 shots, 12 shots on target. They had 6 shots, 4 shots on target. We both had 16 tackles each, they won the possession battle, 51%-49%. We both had two corners, and while they had no cards, I ended the match with 3 yellows thanks in part to my poor tackle attempts as I got reaccustomed to playing FIFA again.
The final stats looking like that, considering I was playing as Real Madrid, with team ratings in the high 80s, against some 5th rate Austrian team with team ratings of something like 60-57-57, WITH the sliders turned up and tuned in MY favor, this is gonna take a while to get my skills up to par in this game.
It's a really fun game and I can guarantee I am going to end up playing the hell out of it. Just gotta get better so I can actually compete in career when playing with crappy teams.
