I pressed the fucking shoot button and when he touched the ball he just KEPT FUCKING RUNNING

[–]muffinmonk 153 points154 points ago

When my defender does a perfect tackle to win the ball IT FUCKING "PASSES" PERFECTLY INTO ANOTHER STRIKER'S FOOT

[–]dontneedyourkarma 80 points81 points ago

When I make a cross: "WHAT THE FUCK!!!! WHERE THE FUCK IS THE REST OF MY TEAM. FUCK THIS GAME."

[–]tenacious-g 17 points18 points ago

Even better. Perfect cross: FUCKING VOLLEYS IT INTO THE UPPER DECK

[–]Tactful 19 points20 points ago

Just take Heskey off man.

[–]midnightsbane04 30 points31 points ago

My entire FIFA experience summed up in three short comments. Used to play this for ~3hrs straight with my friend 2x a week between classes. I am now a football freak.

[–]SmallChildren 81 points82 points ago

I think FIFA is leading America into watching soccer/football.

I'm not even kidding.

[–]mattb1615 37 points38 points ago

FIFA... the gateway drug.

[–]JpSax 32 points33 points ago

Symptoms of Addiction: broken controllers, punched in walls, loud yelling, hemorrhoids, and heart palpitations

[–]WEASEL_DEVOURER 8 points9 points ago

Possible death may occur.

[–]JpSax 10 points11 points ago

These are risks I am willing to take

[–]TucaTuca 14 points15 points ago

You are correct. I've actually watched a few soccer games after playing FIFA. It's simple to explain and I don't have a shit-ton of formation changes to make pre snap lol

[–]GARY_GAGA 6 points7 points ago

i swear i really believe fifa has done more for football in america than anything its how i got into it

[–]rf1293 7 points8 points ago

That's how it got me. Still love my American Football, though.

[–]hejner 8 points9 points ago

I swear, for some reason, for a European like me, it's impossible to love American Football. They aren't playing for 90% of the time, in my eyes.

Please, do enlighten me. What makes that game so fun to watch? I must be looking at all the wrong things.

[–]irunsoicaneat 4 points5 points ago

as an american, i enjoy both sports. but you do have a point.

11 Minutes of Action

[–]heyimrick 4 points5 points ago

There's a lot of planning going on during those moments of non playing. The strategy aspect and how it all needs to be executed perfectly on both sides is pretty cool, I'm just not very good at explaining it. There was a bestof just the other day of someone explaining it perfectly but I can't find it yet.

[–]tenacious-g 7 points8 points ago

I can confirm this from experience.

[–]rellim1214 3 points4 points ago

That's literally the reason how I came to start watching soccer. My friend had FIFA World Cup 2010 for PS3 and I played it. I was hooked immediately so I bought the game myself. Luckily that summer was when the real world cup was.

[–]midnightsbane04 4 points5 points ago

That's what it did for me really. It started with watching the World Cup as it was the only time soccer was on tv outside of the MLS, which was absolutely horrible then and isn't all that good even still. But then came my first FIFA purchase, and now that ESPN shows matches all season long it finally won me over. I even have the famed Mancini Scarf, and to be fair to myself I was a ManCity fan back when they weren't all that good just a few short years ago. It seems to be European soccer fans biggest joy to attack all the Americans that like ManCity suddenly because it's "cool."

[–]ColonelSounders 9 points10 points ago

MLS isn't going to get any better if you're not out there supporting it. I strongly recommend you try following your local team if you have the chance, there's something about being at the games live that you're missing on TV.

[–]Scottyxander 2 points3 points ago

Actually European fans biggest joy is attacking Americans that glory hunt any team to be honest.

[–]cac2976 2 points3 points ago

I think so too. It's a good gateway because it explains the rules and strategies in soccer in a "hands-on" way.

[–]Kuido 1 point2 points ago

I hope so, it worked for me!

I mean, holy shit that was hilarious.

[–]Professor_Oedipus[!] 1 point2 points ago

Or not even a cross!!! I do a drop pass to my defender, it rolls half way there and gets picked up by the other team???? Who the hell was he passing to?

[–]Refactory 5 points6 points ago

Coming from a defender, when this happens in real life it is 10Xs more infuriating.

[–]erinadic 3 points4 points ago

THAT SHIT HAPPENS TO ME SO MANY TIMES, PISSES ME OFF.

[–]JeepTheReal 64 points65 points ago

Button pressed for 1 second or less : Weak shot easily stopped

Button pressed for 1.001 seconds or more : A billion miles too high

[–]Secret_Agent_Gay 3 points4 points ago

There's some truth to this. You see real football players shoot it way over the net, too.

[–]MJSvis 7 points8 points ago

There's not truth to it, you can hit it as hard as you can but lean over the ball and it will stay low, hit it softly but lean back and it will enter orbit, depends how FIFA is feeling.

[–]well_clearly 20 points21 points ago

"I guess B isn't the shoot button cause I hit B and nothing. My fault, Xbox."

[–]twentybinders 16 points17 points ago

[–]letmetellyouhowitis 1 point2 points ago

when I try to shoot a penalty goal I have no idea what to do and the ball gets kicked on the far side of the corner

where can i learn to be better in this game?

[–]OnizOner 2 points3 points ago

Hit the button when it's in the green part THEN and only after shooting you choose the side (left right or nothing to shoot in the middle)

[–]ecacn6 1 point2 points ago

I try to defend and win the ball...passed out of bounds because you hit contain too many times.

[–]Kick-N-Wing 57 points58 points ago

Im glad I am not the only one that feels this way, fifa brings out the worse in me.

[–]titos334 24 points25 points ago

I was just having this feeling today after getting destroyed all day, FIFA makes me want to break things.

[–]calj 24 points25 points ago

Same, they should do a study on why FIFA is the only sports game that pisses people off to such a magnitude.

[–][deleted] 18 points19 points ago

FUCK! Why would he pass it to that guy. I didn't press that way. Damnit!

[–]titos334 8 points9 points ago

They really should, probably cause it's so inconsistent, you never know if you will dribble through a tackle or how the shot will come off the foot. It's so damn aggrivating I want to pull my hair out but also so damn addictive.

[–]Secret_Agent_Gay 3 points4 points ago

If you hadn't specified sports game, I would have nominated Mario Kart. Still kinda counts if you call racing a sport.

[–]CaptainNoBoat 3 points4 points ago

I think many sports games are frustrating.

FIFA is pretty bad because it is soccer: you're tying to achieve one thing (A goal) for 10-30 straight minutes and it feels like you fail on every empty possession.

[–]filmmaker29 4 points5 points ago

My girlfriend is terrified everytime the cup opens up. You know how impossible it is to win 4 games in a row????? Aarrgggghhhh

[–]titos334 5 points6 points ago

Haha yeah it's so hard!!! I got to the finals once I was proud of myself

[–]mattmckillip 11 points12 points ago

Once I start throwing and punching things. That's when I know it's time to stop playing

[–]keptit2real 3 points4 points ago

Lost 3-5 games straight once almost threw controller at the wall, punched my pillow to hold my anger. Roommates thoughts I was going crazy.

[–]Bluemoon_333 4 points5 points ago

Especially if you play it with someone you already feel competitive with in real life. I get so angry I start playing horribly!

[–]Zosoer 6 points7 points ago

I have lost many a controllers and friends to this game. I feel ya

[–]adoxographyadlibitum 2 points3 points ago

It's funny, I switched to Fifa from PES and never looked back. But I can never remember feeling the same levels of frustration with pro evo. It felt so much more consistent.

[–]iloveazizansari 49 points50 points ago

I swore I wouldn't let it happen to me-- but one of those cuntbags with the "JuanPabloVivaMexico1996" username finally pushed me over the edge. I used tottenham to his spain and lost 5-4, and of course there's the obligatory message ("lolol pussy suck my moms dick!!") so I chucked my controller and hit my fish tank and broke the R1 button and cracked the tank and almost killed roscoe. Fuck fifa

[–]AlienGrill 28 points29 points ago

One player completely open, another player at similar angle completely covered: pass it to the covered player. f&kin BULLS&T MAAAAN!!!!

Even though the covered player is beyond the free/intended player...aaarrgghh!

[–]JAnon19 4 points5 points ago

My pain. You understand.

[–]not_prompt 2 points3 points ago

More like pass it to the feet an opposing player standing in space.

Fucking Bullshit!

[–]TheEagleEye8 2 points3 points ago

Omg this is my biggest pet peeve. Fucking through ball to a player and all of a sudden it's going to another guy coming out of nowhere , with zero chances of breaking a run at the goal.

Red/Green colorblind here.

I honestly couldn't tell you which slice was which, but after careful deliberation I'm going to have to say that I hate you for the burning you placed upon my retinas for a short time.

Fucking bullshit!

[–]nawkuh 3 points4 points ago

Since you brought it up, WHY CAN'T I TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ANY OF THE PLAYER MARKERS BUT YELLOW??? Not to mention, I always have to play with a dark kit and a light kit.

[–]Bucky_Ohare 1 point2 points ago

I mostly commented because of the colors, having never played FIFA, but isn't there usually (as I'm used to looking for) a colorblind version of markers for most games? I know even BF3 had 'em. It's hit or miss, but it's usually in there somewhere buried in the options or even an INI.

[–]nawkuh 1 point2 points ago

Not on 360 :/

[–]crazy_pedro 7 points8 points ago

Why would anyone choose these colours? Surely it even looks bad to people with normal colour vision.

[–]itouchboobs 60 points61 points ago

Looks fine to me. Christmas must suck for you.

[–]Bucky_Ohare 7 points8 points ago

It sometimes hurts, but other times it's pretty cool. If you get the right combination of colors, usually red on a green background, to me it looks like there is a "hole" in the paper and there's an infinite sea of red behind it, like I'm looking out a window on the floor of a plane down to the ocean. Otherwise alternating red/green patterns make my head hurt and I typically avoid "festive" shit.

[–]whywecanthavenicethi 1 point2 points ago

What do green eyes look like when you are color blind? Can you see some green and not others?

[–]Bucky_Ohare 1 point2 points ago

Most red/green will see shades of colors but have a hard time immediately distinguishing which one, but for the most part if it's a more "pure" (lack of better word) color I can tell. If you point at something and go "is that red?" I will most likely give you the correct answer if it's fire-engine red. Same for grass, I don't see red grass. What does happen though is I get really iffy if they are close shades or intermittent patterns. Took me a while to figure out which color went to which part of the pie chart, mostly figured it out by the obvious joke.

Green eyes are green eyes, to me at least it's pretty easy to tell.

[–]tentaclesjr 10 points11 points ago

Jew here, Christmas ain't all that bad. Great time to get some Chinese food if you ask me, watch a movie, or just wait for the next 8 days of Hanukkah.

[–]Feb29thCakeDay 6 points7 points ago

You can get Chinese food or watch a movie during the rest of the year, too.

[–]adoxographyadlibitum 8 points9 points ago

Really? Everyone in division 1 I play uses Madrid.

[–]eblees 5 points6 points ago

I play in division one and Barcelona is team almost everyone uses in that division

[–]Alex1609 1 point2 points ago

As a lowly division 3 player who uses Arsenal (dat Walcott), I can confirm that Real Madrid and Barcelona are the only teams I ever fucking face. Once in a while I may get lucky and play against Man City or Bayern Muncih -_-

[–]2bluntsatonce 7 points8 points ago

I've reverted to only playing with 3 star teams purely because of Barca

[–]johnbob101 3 points4 points ago

OH man I think it's Real Madrid and Man City i run into most.

[–]vsky 28 points29 points ago

One of the more frustrating, yet gratifying games.

But seriously, fuck finesse shots.

[–]alexLAD 14 points15 points ago

I know right. That moment of pure rage when your opponent shapes for that finesse shot from outside the box and you just know it's going into the far corner.

[–]SmallChildren 6 points7 points ago

That feel when you run up in front of their finesse shot and it goes through your defenders' legs. There's a dent in the wall when I got scored on in the 120th minute that way.

[–]HarroPrease 3 points4 points ago

This was my specialty in Fifa 10 but I can't do it in 12 anymore :(

Seriously fuck FIFA, all 6 versions that I own, and all the future editions that I will own.

[–]NJknick 3 points4 points ago

Seriously! How dare he stop sprinting the distance of the pitch?!

[–]Adzmodean 34 points35 points ago

Let me pre-cursor this by saying I've been a gamer for the past 22 years. So I say it with some level of conviction and experience.

FIFA CHEATS LIKE A MOTHERFUCKER!

Before picking up FIFA I've not had a game induce controller throwing levels of frustration since about 1997 (DiddyKong Racing). Seriously, play against an easy team, score twice in 2 minutes, suddenly the AI increases to level 11 difficulty, don't score for the rest of the game, tackling becomes impossible and let 4 go in past the keeper. Absolute Bullshit.

[–]Hack0201 29 points30 points ago

FIFA is still a godsent when compared to the bullshit in football and basketball games...

Oh so Matt Cassel decided to throw a perfect 50 yard laser while being drug to the ground, that's fucking cool I guess.

[–]Jackg28 4 points5 points ago

Don't forget: "oh, so now the ball can magically morph to go straight through my DB's hand! How fucking awesome!"

[–]dyljm2 5 points6 points ago

My biggest issue is that I can play on one level (semi pro) and win every single match by ten goals. Then suddenly I move up to professional and play as Barcelona and lose 4-0 to a two star team from the French B-league. WHAT THE FUCK??? I have been an avid player for two years and still can't get better because the difference between skill levels is absurdly drastic.

Edit: Even worse, I was really, really good at the World Cup game. I'd play online and win four out of five times. But I still couldn't beat the computer on professional.

[–]EFG 1 point2 points ago

As an addict with several decade plus rivalries in FIFA, the only way to get better if you play the computer is crank it up to Legendary, and ride out. Semi-pro, professional and world class are a an overly doting mother compared to the mentally and physically abusive absentee drunkard of a father that Legendary is.

[–]brainface 5 points6 points ago

UPvote for DiddyKong Racing controller throwing rage. Unlocking Drumstick? Fuck that shit!

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Just run over the frog with feathers, man.

[–]muffinmonk 9 points10 points ago

FIFA will favor a player, and put a handicap on you to "even" the odds.

[–]mrpopenfresh 1 point2 points ago

What was it about Diddy Kong Racing?

[–]Adzmodean 3 points4 points ago

Diddy seems to have had pretty bad collision detection. There were some devilishly hard challenge races that you'd lose with a single collision, but to win you'd have to fly really close to the edge/limit. You'd invariably collide with an invisible edge and lose the race. So frustrating - especially on last lap.

[–]eblees 1 point2 points ago

when ever i play against AI on the amateur level, I always win by a huge margin. you must be mistaken.

[–]rumham22 32 points33 points ago

After being a keeper all my life, I respond to opponenets goals with something usually along the lines of "WHAT THE FUCK BUFFON/OCHOA/CASILLAS, I MAKE THAT SAVE 10 TIMES OUT OF 10! FUCK THIS GAME!"

Oh hey, the other teams fouling the shit out of me. NO CALL My guy barely touched the other players... STOP EVERYTHING YELLOW CARD

4 broken ankles last season IN THE BOX, none called for anything. Usually about 7 fouls on me and 0-1 on the computer per game.

Dominating possession and winning be at least 2 goals at the half. Next half starts and the other team is suddenly Barcelona. This game drives me insane, but I can't not play it.

[–]Carlos1264 2 points3 points ago

When you are playing against the computer and the computer does a big ass foul and the referee was right in front and pretends like he didn't see shit. Then you get annoyed and your player just barely pushes the computers' player and BAM! A fucking yellow card! The referee is so fucking bought by the computer.

[–]Slowed09 2 points3 points ago

Fuck Dani Alves. He is impossible to get by, even when you think you are way of ahead of him hes right there to make the tackle. Fifa created a monster with him. Other than that I don't find Barca that hard to beat. Oh yeah Iker, damn you. Forgot about him.

Anyone play on manual controls??

[–]MattPott 2 points3 points ago

We don't even get mad anymore. I'll just txt my buddy, or he'll txt me one single word: "FIFA'd'. Nothing more needs to be said.

I play PES 2010 and actually right now I am waiting my roommate to get back from work so we can play 3 games and the one who loses has to do chords like laundry or dishes. It is very intense! I think our neighbors are stressed out how many times we scream "Pass the fucking ball" or "Stupid [player name] shoot at the goal!"

NCAA Football '12 (and, I'm sure, '13 as well): No, it's cool. I'm down by 2 with :17 left. It's 4th and 3 just outside my kicker's range. Go ahead and: A) DROP THE FUCKING BALL ON A SLANT ROUTE YOU'VE FUCKING CAUGHT ALL GAME. B) MISS THAT FUCKING BLOCK. IT'S COOL, LINE. NO FUCKING WORRIES. C) FUMBLE. FIRST TIME ALL YEAR AND WE'RE IN THE 8TH GAME OF THE SEASON. NOT LIKE I WAS GUNNING FOR A CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP OR ANYTHING.

Amen. That's why I quit playing football games, the BS level is way higher than FIFA. Nothing like giving up a big play to lose a game in prevent defense or my personal favorite, fumbling while holding the protect ball button.

I KEEP WINNING

[–]Blueberry_Yum_Yum 1 point2 points ago

Try going to your buddies house and playing with 3 other people. It's utter bullshit. They all get the colors: Red, Blue, and Yellow. And what color do I get? MOTHERFUCKING GREEN. THATS RIGHT. GREEN. THE DUMBEST COLOR IN THE GAME. Because of that, I can't see the any of players on the field. So I start raging, then everyone tells me to calm down and start treating me like a child. Then they ask why I'm so angry, and all I can answer with is "BECAUSE GREEN. GREEN GODDAMIT!"

According to my calculations, I'm the best player in the world, and everyone else is just luckier than me.

[–]RPArsenal 1 point2 points ago

The EA Servers are responsible for 90% of my losses.

[–]Arash310 1 point2 points ago

I don't always loose in FIFA but when I do... Your goalie is man of the match!

[–]niggertown 1 point2 points ago

Reminds me of Project Reality.

Death by falling crates. Death by falling 5 feet. Death by not choosing the right kit on spawn. Death by friendly fire. Death by exploding enemy objective. Death by getting stuck between two rocks. Death by spawning on a cache with a hostile next to it. Death by using the wrong kit in the wrong vehicle seat.

Amen, brother

[–]jimmypoop 1 point2 points ago

i still prefer pro evo

[–]LilB2fast4u 4 points5 points ago

no, i always lose because the guy scores when FIFA makes it easier to score automatically. like in the 45' minute, 52' minute, right after you scored or 90' minute. pisses me off.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

It's all in your head. FIFA doesn't make it "easier to score automatically".

[–]CobraCommanderp 4 points5 points ago

Glad to see you guys are losing at FIFA for the same reason I'm losing at PES.

[–]Citeh 3 points4 points ago

God dammit i hate those tramp goals. FIFA aficionados will understand.

[–]mp07d 1 point2 points ago

Damnn, I just got the urge to beat some ass in fif. Anybody down for match on XBL?

[–]scoobydoo182 1 point2 points ago

Same exact thing in NHL 12.

"Oh you're ahead by half a lap and have been leading the entire race? Here's 3 blue shells, a bullet, aaaaaand you only get red boxes! Cheers!"

[–]spaceisfun 1 point2 points ago

Also true for NHL series.

[–]fassaction 1 point2 points ago

this is pretty accurate with just about every game...

I think my wife gets tired of hearing me yell at the TV while playing battlefield 3

"FUCKING BULLSHIT ....ASSHOLE FUCKING NOOB BUSHWOOKIES!" I mean seriously....its bullshit when I lose.

[–]Elokobi 0 points1 point ago

Great tackle... foul? WTF, RED CARD?!?! I raged so much at that when it happened to me yesterday

[–]Brobama2012 0 points1 point ago

Every time I play this game online. It ends up as a dead lock between us, and the absolute last seconds of the game some bulltshit happens and he scores. The second I touch the ball the game ends. This game brings out the worst of me.

[–]No-eye-deer 0 points1 point ago

I got pretty into playing Fifa with my room mate even though he was obviously better than me. Played for a couple weeks until the fateful day came one of his players shot the ball halfway across the field into my goal as my goalie literally watched the ball roll in dumbfounded. NEVER AGAIN

[–]Rasta_Man69 -1 points0 points ago

EA games in a nutshell = fucking bullshit

[–]StornZ 0 points1 point ago

It's the same with every other sports game out there including NHL 12. Really all the lucky shots u can see

[–]TheAgeOfTomfoolery 0 points1 point ago

After the atrocity that was Fifa 11, I pretty much gave up on the series...but I was thinking of getting back into it. But this thread tells me its still the same bullshit so...fuck you fifa.

[–]barish_ 0 points1 point ago

My friends can confirm this, i am the unluckiest FIFA player in Australia, at least Victoria. Last night i slide tackled and missed both player and ball outside the box. My friend won a penalty. FUCK YOU FIFA YOU FUCKING FUCK
