How's your FIFA 13 career mode going?

[razorkaos]

For you guys who need a winger, you should try Wellington Nem, from Fluminense. He is not that expensive, has a lot of potential and is very talented. In 12, there was a CB called Simone Benedetti, from Gubbio, or Gobbio... i dont remember, but is a team from Serie B. Kid became the new Hummels.

For those interested in scouting young players, in 12, i had great success finding new stars. For technical strikers, search in Brazil, Argentina and Germany. For defenders, Italy, Côte d Ivoire, Germany and Belgium. For fullbacks, Cameroon, Nigeria, England France and Netherlands. For defensive midfielders, Argentina, Poland, Belgium, France and Ghana. For creative and technical midfielders, try searching in Brazil, Italy, Spain, Uruguay, England and France. Good GKs are the easiest to find, but the best are in Italy, Germany, Brazil and Denmark.

How do you know the potential for those guys?

My Career hasn't gone quite to plan yet, but it's early. I'm sitting in 8th with Hertha BSC in 2. Bundesliga. I'm doing a CM dynasty page (link in sig) if you want more info.

Working my way up the Liga Polska standings. After a rough couple of matches I've surged to 7th with L. Poznan after knocking off our rivals. L.Warska.

I'm having a blast playing this game!

Horrible because I can't even get into it (PS3). Game freezes as soon as I try to launch my career.

Any ideas to fix it?

I just recently started a Manager Mode as Chelsea, and haven't made it very far yet. I signed Mats Hummels from Borussia Dortmund to strengthen our defence, and then I went on to win the first three matches:

Community Shield
Chelsea 1-1 Manchester City (Chelsea win 4-2 on penalties)

Premier League
Wigan Athletic 1-2 Chelsea
Chelsea 3-0 Newcastle United

I have a Capital One Cup match coming up against Leicester City, which I should win.

Start a CM with the seattle sounders moved them to the EPL and started them in the Npower2 which i am walking through im 15-0-2. i created (myself) as a 17 year old striker rated as 65 speedster. currently i he has grown to a 69ovr. if it plays out like last years game ill breeze thur year one and then the work begins in Npower1

Started my annual Career Mode with AS Roma.

Recalled Bojan, Angel, and Borriello from loans. Placed Osvaldo on the transfer list and got an offer from a Ligue 1 side. I countered and they accepted. A week later I received an email that they could not come to terms and Osvaldo was back in the capital city.

Received a message from a young LB named Dodo that he wanted to play in the opening friendly against Frieburg from the Bundesliga. Put him in and he ends up with 7.6 rating.

Finished the 3 friendly games at 3-0-0 beating Frieburg 1-0 but had to withstand a furious late game rally. Beat Everton at Goodison Park 1-0 on Osvaldo's goal in the same week he returned to the club. In the final friendly beat Grenada 2-1.

It looks as if I will have to go with more of a youth movement type of strategy as Totti will retire at the end of his agreement and I'm also getting plenty of offers from elite clubs for DeRossi. It would be tough to let him go, but I have a young Greek CDM and Michael Bradley from the USA is just a beast and can bump anyone off the ball. The future of the team will be built around Bojan, Lamela, Pjanic, and the Greek.

The three games brought a good variety of play styles with Frieburg playing a more ball control style, Everton, a long ball and counterattacking style, and Grenada a more quick paced ball control style as well.

I drew 10 fouls against a clearly outpaced and outclassed Frieburg and 7 fouls against Everton who did a lot of chasing as I went to a Long Ball strategy mid way through the match. Grenada provided the biggest challenge as the held a 63-37 possession edge.

Passing percentages(CPU pass error at 95/First Touch at 75):

Frieburg 75%
Everton 68%.......lots of long balls
Grenada 81%

It's early, but man this game is goooooood!
