Coffee is a broth, not a beverage.

@JojoTheWhale

I know you're watching the PoE2 thingy with a beverage right now.

A++ Early Access. I was in a closed test. They’ve done a ton of work.

Then saliva is Striiker broth.

Anyone play Stalker 2? I need to give it a try once I get my pc to where I want it

Sorry to interrupt the soccer thread, I just picked up Civ VI off humble bundle.
I haven’t played a civ game in at least 5 years and the new stuff is throwing me off.
Any suggestions on how to relearn how to play other than trial and error?
Long games are fine, but long games that are losses suck after a few rack up.

I grabbed it but I was out of state working last week so I haven't started it yet. Loved the original, can't wait to play this.

Hasn't been soccer talk in weeks bro.

Haven’t played since CoD came out but I got Figo in the max 90 icon sbc.

I don’t know if that’s even a win. So expensive.

I might join you. I am so bad this year. I played WL for the first time for the obj and got 6 wins. SIX. I lost in pens four times lol.

Figo is a rare card. I forgot he was even in the game until I ran into someone using him in Rush last night. Looks decent.

I am not opening a single pack this week and have held off on SBCs so far this week (although I want that Talisca). This promo is trash and the Black Friday promo looks amazing.

It feels like they made the game even heavier and more ice skate-y. Don’t feel bad, the games just shit and you can’t play the right way.

I still haven’t t gotten a single promo card out of a pack since that DiMarco in the first few weeks
Pack weight is either horrendous or I’m just cursed.

And yeah, Figo is pretty good. Salah is the MVP team though. The finesse shots are too good. Currently trying to a silly amount of XP in record time to get the Malen from the season rewards.

Ya know, I was a lot better when I was just ripping finesse shots with Griezmann. Just got tired of using gold cards.

Wish I could donate some XP. They do have XP in the store if you get desperate.

Really?

Ok, that’ll be a last resort if I can’t make it. I’ve got it down to about 4k so we’ll see.

@FLYguy3911 played a guy who scored a long range power shot 30 seconds in, hit the griddy, and then paused for me to quit.

Before halftime I scored 5 straight goals, griddy/paused repeatedly, and then got this

Gotta at least respect that he took it like a champ lol

I tried the 4-4-1-1 yesterday and it was like I was playing a new game. Need a power shooter though.

Btw these SBCs about to drop are going to hurt me financially.

Yeah, that’s what I’ve been using since I got Figo… but I just had to change it to 4-1-2-1-2 because of the above.

And yeah, the new cards/promo/SBCs look nuts.

You have to be shitting me haha. Out of a 81+. Congrats you rat. I have yet to pack him in any FIFA. They must have juiced the packs since no one is opening any.

I also got the FC Pro promo card of the #1 ranked pro from the 75+x100, so I’ve just had crazy luck today after having horrific pack luck all year.

Probably because you stopped playing for CoD.
