Great stuff BFF!

Perhaps you can identify your button configuration so I know how your button callouts match up with my setup. For instance I’m assuming B is shoot, but it could be high pass.

Great vids and I look forward to more.

360 default setup. A is pass,X is chip, Y is useless (I mean thru-ball.) B is shoot. Thanks for the complement and I'm really gonna try and get my act together real quick with the vids. I've got a great editing program and a real nice capture device and I've learned quite a bit from a friend of mine named Wepeeler. So, seeing as I'm the resident Fifa-junkie, it is my duty to share the love. But here's to hoping that I'll be up and running come Saturday. My CPU is on the UPS truck from Las Vegas and should be at my door Friday. Already have everything else(Motherboard, videocard and all new fans for CPU and case.). Just ready to start playing around with some tutorial ideas. Just can't use the wife's laptop to play around with editing. She'd kill me if I killed it, too!

I can't figure this out- I thought BAP mode online meant I could use my dude I created, but it makes me use the actual dude instead. What gives?

No, you have to use actual roster players. That's one thing that is a lot better about NHL.

Here's an example of an attack where you change direction of play and shoot without settling the ball. LB and X to the running Berbatov. LB tap to control the ball, which he beats out the defender for to quick tap of the B shooting top left. Remember to always shoot and pass before the D has time to react.

That goal with Berbatov is stunning. I'll have to work on my play with the LB you've given here.

Thank you. You should see it in real time. I like to slow do the key stuff to show it, but in real time it was just pass, trap it on the toe and slot it out of the air. Key is to stop thinking and do it. It's all about reaction time and thinking one move ahead. Problem is that I haven't been able to get quick enough to take my act online. But I'm getting there. I'm a firm believer that this game can do so much more than the "other" game in regards to creativity and gameplay. It's just a matter of getting your game together and playing the game the way the Fifa team designed it. I had to totally unlearn all of my Fifa08 stuff and approach this game as it's own animal. I'm learning, though!

LB tap? (that is L1 for PS3 players)... the only time i use LB is to stop the ball facing goal... but tapping it controls the ball? i will try that tonight...

and how did you find out about that move?
