    I am I have to get the Tango 12 ball, at first I thought about getting the official one, but it seems that there is no difference between it and the replica (apart from the 4x difference in price!)

    Re: The FIFA Gaming Society
    The one thing that will annoy me with the EURO 2012 DLC is if the menus and the menu music doesnt change at all, and is just like in fifa 12

    Remember the world cup 2010 game how good the menus where, and the menu soundtrack was also VERY good (in my opinion) thats what i want, the feeling of playing a new game

    yeah i know its on the fifa 2012 engine and im cool with that, but when i press the button to load the add-on, i want to be loaded in to a completely new experience design wise, because otherwise it will seem like just another game mode for fifa 12 such as live season.

    agree ?

    Was putting my Torres up for 35k to sell to replace with a new striker and put him up for 25k by mistake :facepalm2:

    I'll just wait for the US happy hour and try my luck on one of those premium packs

    First time online in a while and new updates to UT look good. Just bought 2 premium packs and the best players were an 81 keeper from the Brazilian league and Reo-Coker

    I think it's a real bad ploy of fifa to do it imo, though they make crap loads from it so win win for them. I've never liked ultimate team. Whenever my mates play it it looks complex and i've never seen them win a game lol.

    I always end up buying packs. It is absolutely stupid, I agree. But people like myself keep forgetting it's just a game. And it doesn't help that you get absolute **** in packs. 7.5k is a lot of coins considering how long it takes to get that amount. And well Microsoft points are so easy, I only ever spend 500ms in one go. And I genuinely believe you get better players with money... Well based on my luck anyway. :yy:

    another annoying thing is that they all choose barca or real,or chelsea{with the overrated running black ones and also amazing torres,which in real life is crap} there are many annoying things in fifa but what you can do? they should make a mode that you can choose the team which you would like to play against and if any player comes along then ok..even though why someone whith milan for example will choose to play barca or real..dont know..at least something should be happen!

    Winning 3-1 with 20 mins to go till FT then EA servers are down. FFS. :sigh:

    Then my PS3 crashes. ****ing brilliant. :sigh:

    Will be away for a few days so wanted to fit as much FIFA as possible into tonight... :unimpressed:

    Don't think I'll be joining the FIFA society next year for FIFA 13. Highly contemplating making the switch to PES. I'm just not having fun on FIFA that much any more.

    What on earth are you on about? If you want to play a worse team, than you can yourself play as a worse team. There's no point in someone who wants to play as Barcelona being able to play against a three-star team.

    I'm so sick of winning/drawing and the EA Servers crashing on me. It completely ruins FIFA for me as online head-to-head is the only mode I find continually tolerable. It pretty much does it in four or five out of every ten games. Any idea why it happens? :banghead:

    No idea tbh. I think its more frequent with people who have Virgin as their ISP? :dontknow:

    This time the servers were down completely, no one could play online matches for up to an hour until they went back up.

    Meh. Mine is BT HomeHub, so...it's infuriating. I'd really like to be able to just get through a season without losing two or three games due to internet crashes. :mad:

    Since when is anyone ever Chelsea...

    Milan, Bayern and Man City/United are common too.

    Swansea are the team i always am atm. Got a formation which works 100% with the team. More fun than playing as a 5 star team. I like Napoli as well if i want to choose a good side. Though it's got to be custom formations again.
