10 mins. this is long enough. I already played 15 mins but this is just too long for a season.

Doesnt really make sense, does it?



I play 5 or 6 minutes

5 minutes for me.

Anything longer than this and the games will end up being 5-3, 4-4, 6-2 etc.
When playing 5 minutes, the games are realistic with the results, and I feel these are quite long anyway.

Some games I will have 4 shots and its a tightly contested battle in the midfield.
Some games I will dominate and have 10 or so shots. Not too many games IRL have more shots than that. So im happy with 5 minute halves. Plus I would get too bored with 10+ min games haha

Not too many games in real life have more than 4-10 shots per side?

The average between both sides in the Premier League is typically around 27.

Sorry, I meant 10+ per side.Game on game, its around that mark. Or less if a team gets dominated etc, so this suits my fifa experience,.

I was playing 10 min per half but the scores were just too high so I've settled on 7 mins now. Shot totals can be a little low but it's a trade-off I'm willing to accept to get more realistic scores and to simply get through seasons much quicker.

8 min. It is the sweet spot for me. Playing at Pro or World Class, 8 min gives enough time, when I fall behind, to have a realistic shot at coming back. Not too long where seasons become tedious.
