    Re: How's Your FIFA 14 Career Mode Going?

    Going to keep my SUFC going, but played around this afternoon with a few different Premier League clubs. I know it wouldn't be much of a challenge, but I'm not contemplating Arsenal, West Ham, and Southampton.

    Tomorrow, I'm going to try and play a few Championship matches to see if there is one that I could try to use and bring to the Premier League. Millwall and Sheffield Wednesday are the two favorites.
    Teams:

    NFL - Packers & Browns
    MLB - Brewers & Twins
    NCAA Football - Wisconsin, LSU, Virginia Tech
    Soccer - Arsenal, Wolverhampton
    NHL - Wild

      Re: How's Your FIFA 14 Career Mode Going?

      The game on World Class difficulty is really frustrating. I really came close to throwing my PS3 controller out of the window last night....

      There has been so many times where I have played so much better in terms of possession, defending and creating chances only to either lose or draw. Yes I know this happens in football but when you have Barnet running rings round everyone, playing like Barca when you have a first string XI for United something clearly isn't right.

      I swear that in certain matches in my career mode it doesn't want me to win so I did a scientific experiment in my career mode with United.

      I basically restarted the same match 10 times to see if there was any variation in the experiences I had and sadly there wasn't.

      I played Spurs at Old Trafford in the league. Spurs were in 3rd a few points behind and I was in 2nd spot so it was a huge game. Completely carved them apart for 90 minutes in all 10 matches, creating chance after chance and missing every single one including several crossbar shots and one which hit the inside of the post and bounced out again.

      Possession wise I could not get anywhere near them. They literally seemed to have 99 pace and accel in all 10 outfield players. From memory the 10 games I played were 55-45 in Spurs favour. For most of the 90 they couldn't get anywhere near my penalty area. Every single pass I tried to make fell short. I was lucky to play more than 3 consecutive passes.

      In each game I took the lead only to concede pretty much every single time in the 90th minute or close to the 90th... One instance Smalling who was my CB decided to literally stop dead in his tracks when Dembele played an aerial through ball to Soldado... Lloris seemed to save absolutely everything....

      In short I'm very close to giving up FIFA 14 due to the blatant cheating by the CPU that I've encountered on a match to match basis in my career saves.

        Just started my Brighton & Hove Albion CM last night with Oscar Garcia, their current real life coach with little experience.

        Garcia spent his career playing in Spain, most of it with Barceloan, so I'm going to use that to shape the way the team plays. The board wants me to fight for promotion, which I'm assuming means they want me to make the playoffs.

        It's pretty tough playing attacking football with a Championship side that are only 3*, but it's a fun challenge. The goal will be to heavily recruit from Spain, and slowly build a team full of technically skilled players that can stay in the Premier League.

        Would love to know if anyone else is doing a Brighton CM.

          I took some time off my Player CM to wrap up GTA V, but now that that's done it's time to get back to it. That is, unless there is anyone here willing to get a crew going...

            Just kicked off with Leeds, looking to bring them up and win the Premiership one day.

            Any tips on transforming this team into world beaters? Looking at signing a few young guns to make some profit on and also hopefully find a few gems through the youth academy.

              Use financial takeover as soon as you can...I'm in my 19th league match with Leeds right now. I highly recommend Rafinha (Brazilian) LW/ST. I also have Bruma and Bakkali who have both started to improve quickly. Anthony Martial is also an excellent potential striker (starts 64ovr). Victor Andrade (CF) is a good buy as well. On defense, Eric Dier (English CB) with Sporting I think in Portugal. Chalobah (CDM) at Chelsea and Tonny Vilhena (CM) are good buys as well.

              Feel free to check out my Leeds Career mode website, I have my entire roster listed amongst other things. Good luck, I'm enjoying it so far.

                Just finished 7th in my first season as Aston Villa. What is odd though is that ive had 2 major bugs in my 1st season career, both against Tottenham. The only way ive been able to progress my career is to sim both games. On the 2nd match vs Spurs when I simmed I noticed that the entire Spurs lineup was completely blank. Obviously explains why the game was crashing. Strange bug this one, anyone else had anything similar?

                  I usually only play in the English leagues I was wondering is there other good fun leagues where you can build up low level teams and make them compete internationally?

                  Also I am currently Fleetwood Town as my manager mode. What teams have awesome kits that are in the League 2. or just awesome kits in general

                      Thanks man! In future seasons I'm thinking of creating separate tabs for tourneys, so that you would have the league tab, Champions League Tab, FA Cup, etc. Once I have the template it is pretty easy. Wish I could upload/embed video, but may have to wait to get something that would allow me to next year.

                      Under honors after first season I will probably create a player records page along with the honors page. My plan is to keep tabs on all my stats for the entire career. I'm gonna start writing stories in the front page news section probably next season as well.

                        I think It's time I to start getting that youth academy going maybe.

                          I started off with Everton. I had planned to stay away from England but then I wanted to give them a go, and I'm loving them.
                          In my first year my only signing was Juan Jesus, and I also had Barry, Deulofeu and Lukaku on loan. Lukaku was an animal all season. I was awfully inconsistent in the middle part of the season, but picked it up again, and managed to snag 4th place and won the capital one cup. On top of that I was offered the Ireland job, and got them to the quarter final of the World Cup. Not a bad season.
                          Into the second season and my loanees went away, but I brought back Deulofeu and also brought in Adnan Januzaj. Kevin Gameiro came into replace Lukaku. Barkley is out for 4 months, so Kone is filling into the CAM spot, with Vellios as cover. Destroyed Lech Poznan 9-2 on aggregate in the CL Qualifier, and am in a group with Juventus, FK Austria and Lokomotiv. 1-1-1 so far in the league.
                          As much as I'm loving Everton, I might snatch at a job in Italy or Spain if one appears.

                            My striker was injured in the first moments of the fl cup making my team Yeo loose. So sad after an extremely good run.

                            5 weeks later docs clear me and hello Brazil. Gonna make a run for the cup as USA.

                              I just finished my first season with Fleetwood Town and it was an interesting one to say the least. I traded away a star prospect for 400,000 and got a couple good ones and picked up a few more via the youth academy. I can say that I started off rough with being in near last place almost the whole season but I ended up in 8th place to finish the season. I loaned out some players and managed to end up pretty good. I had so many draws and as a league two club that's not very good I will take that. Wish I could have finished in the playoff run but overall I'm OK with where I ended up. Now i have 1.2 million to start with know of any good players that I must sign to get my team over the hump? Or do I just sign several good players or like one or two amazing ones? Any suggestions and ideas would be greatly appreciated
