OT: Video Game Thread Part VIII

[TB87]

He reminded me a bit of Father Gascoigne from Bloodborne in that he's the first enemy you encounter that has a similar moveset to you. I don't know if I'm actually getting better at these kinds of games or if I got lucky, but I beat him on my first try lol

1st try eh? You bastard lol. Took me about 30 tries. For whatever reason, I was having a helluva time stabbing him in the back. Once I did it right, I got him but it took…awhile haha. I’m liking the game so far…that was just wild man

Pal world has no right being as fun as it is.

At least you can see I wasn’t making shit up last year. The game is ****in rigged.

I’d never heard the term DDA (dynamic difficulty adjustment) until I started playing FIFA but now I’m a believer. Passing suddenly changes, goalies either become gods or traffic cones, 95 finishing players can’t hit the net, 99 pace players get outrun by 80 pace CBs…

Not to mention you end up playing skillgods with $1000 teams.

Also be sure to turn off crossplay if you haven’t already.

This might have been the worst WL ever because every other team was a loser who spent a grand on TOTY packs and was running out the loans + Cech. Played some dude that had Sam Smith on 80 games. You can imagine how many packs he opened. Another guy had 4 attackers with 5 star skills moves and was just elasticoing all game. Buncha losers.

See I had cross play off but the games felt sweatier and I feel like that was probably because I made the player pool smaller. Maybe I’ll turn it off next week.

It didn’t help that I played all 20 in one day either. And I’m the worst penalty taker in the world. Lost 3 games in pens.

And this is the first weekend my stupid ass played a few WL games. Hasnt been fun.

Oh and I should’ve explained: turn off your crossplay because there’s a glitch where PC players can make it so you can’t control your players, as if your controller turned off. I’ve seen it happen to a few streamers this weekend.

Yeah I heard of it. Haven’t run into it yet though. They do it just to farm coins. It’s so ridiculous.

The hilarious part of the loans is if someone quits in a tie game, the loan game still counts. So people pay real money for these things and can’t even get full value lol. This game is so dumb.

And EA isn’t going to fix it because it just makes people buy more shit

A grand! People spend that kinda money on Fifa?? What the actual f***.

 

[Striiker]

Down 0-3 17 minutes in against TOTY Haaland and Pele, come back and tie it 4-4 in the 73rd minute with two quick goals…. kid immediately pauses the game and quits.

Second game in a row where I come back and the opponent quits when tied, which means I don't get the win...

Raging.

Some content creators dump an average person's annual salary into this game.

I really do not get EA's logic for not awarding wins like this. I've played into the second half of extra time only for people to quit.

That might be the play but I sure as shit won’t.

20 in one day is too much

5 minutes until I open over a hundred packs and get absolutely nothing

I think tomorrow is the day. Honorable mentions and 12th men are supposed to be in.

Apparently the odds on Toty cards went down for store packs so good luck in regular Untradeable packs.

How many packs lol?

I watched a three hour stream of store packs and nothing.

Roughly 100, like half of them being 83+x10 or 84+x5. So many duplicates. Didn’t get a single 89 or 90, even with 87+’s.

Only good thing is I finished Sawa and I got a lot of TOTW’s with duplicates.

Hopefully you have better luck.

Edit: oh and I made mini-Mbappe WITHOUT using both Finisher Evos lol
