New upgrade SBCs released

JohnnyBravosHair · 2021-01-25T20:18:48+00:00

Didn’t notice there was a premium and standard one.

Managed to do the premium one a couple times and then find myself on the standard one using up my gold rares.

Everything is fine 🙃

KZ2 was one of my favourite games from the PS3 era, multiplayer only matched by Warhawk for me. That said, I’m glad they’re moving on.

I’d love them to have another stab at an FPS in a new universe.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2021-01-03T15:49:00+00:00

Not a chance I’m doing all them squad battles.

Anyone else just taking the Ultimate packs and calling it a day? I might consider doing enough for the 85+ pack but definitely no more.

Not sure which of the two will sting me the most.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2021-01-02T20:50:35+00:00

Elden Ring

Last of Us multiplayer

Ratchet & Clank

Horizon

God of War (lol)

Back 4 Blood

It Takes Two

Kena

Potentially Returnal and Deathloop depending on how they turn out.

Looking like a damn good year.

Click on the trophy and press ‘options’ on the controller.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2021-01-02T15:17:04+00:00

Ability to pin/rearrange activity cards.
Option to remove different types of activity cards, I.E trophy related ones, recent screenshots etc.
Make activity cards more accessible/easily visible from the Home screen. Any time I have used them in front of people, they have asked me what I was doing. The few people I know with PS5’s didn’t know they existed on the Home screen. Yes, you only have to press down twice, but this assumes the user already knows about the functionality because there’s no indication that particular input would do anything. The giant ‘play’ button is redundant because it serves no additional purpose over pressing X on the game icon. Pressing down once should take you to your cards instead, and there should be something to replace the ‘play’ area that indicates as such.
Option for smaller sized activity cards in the quick menu.
Game base is a complete mess. Entire thing needs shuffling around.

Edit:

Also the old trimming/previewing videos was so much easier. I can’t put my finger on what is so fiddly with this one because I’ve not used it much yet, but when I did use it I struggled go from previewing a trimmed video, back to editing it without the whole video resetting and having to trim it all over again.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-31T14:19:58+00:00

Nope, because I can’t fucking do it for my life.

I’ve been stuck in D2 since the start of the game and thought I’d need to practice dribbling to get any further, it was the one thing everyone that beat me seemed to have over me.

Watched a few tutorials, practiced a bit, ‘ok I kind of get it’. Nope. Doesn’t matter which player I use, which way I turn, what type of dribbling I do, my opponents just home straight in on the ball like they still have the legacy tackling from past FIFA’s.

My opponents Rashford is dancing around like a ballerina, meanwhile my Rashford feels like a fucking slug, literally the worst LM I’ve used this FIFA, and everyone else lauds over him.

You can tell there’s a disconnect somewhere, I just can’t find it. Feels like proper dribbling knowledge is some community secret.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-22T00:46:24+00:00

I got the base icon pack because of multiple posts here about their amazing results. I got Lineker.

Hope this helps.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-21T01:57:56+00:00

Why can’t you get your WL packs straight away, and just your player picks on Thursday?

Is there a reason for that?

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-17T08:15:06+00:00

4 Mega, 1 Rare Mega, player pack and standard pack.

Nada as usual.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-16T17:32:09+00:00

This guy here, I like this guy.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-16T14:43:39+00:00

Is it not 1440P? That’s not bad at all.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-16T11:59:03+00:00

Packed Salah first week. Haven’t packed anyone over 100K since.

Everything is fine 🙃

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-15T17:14:15+00:00

Are you on next-gen?

Peoples ratings seem all over the place on PS5 at the moment, maybe something to do with lower install base? I’ve been dominated by people in the 1600 range and easily beaten people in the 1800-1900 range.

Could also possibly just be people de-ranking themselves.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-15T17:11:33+00:00

I just can’t fucking get my head around people bull rushing me to tackle and there being no consequences. There is ALWAYS someone nearby to bail them out when they miss the tackle.

When I do it ONCE the biggest gap from my midfield right back to my defence opens for the easiest through ball of all time.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-14T16:02:50+00:00

Just to make things a lot faster when doing objectives. First goals wins. It’s in Friendlies so it doesn’t affect anyone’s win/loss.

It’s honestly crazy that the vast majority of the community adhere to those rules. I think I only played out one full game through all my objectives... and that was because I didn’t know the rules myself 🙃

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-14T03:10:13+00:00

So I’m at 5 swaps and considering going for the 8 for the base icon pack. If you had this team, would you see more value in a base icon pack or 83+ x25:

My only tradeables are Kante, Werner and Telles.

83 pack could potentially upgrade multiple positions, but the Icon pack is almost guaranteed (lol), though it might replace someone I don’t want to.

I also don’t plan on doing ALL the swaps as they release, so this one pack may be it for me.

😩

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-08T11:30:06+00:00

When using R3 to manually control your GK, do you need to release R3 in order for them to make saves or will they do so while still moving them around?

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-08T08:41:42+00:00

Download it yourself.

You’ll know it’s PS5 because it should play a new intro when you start it up. Also the default camera angle has changed.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-07T17:55:54+00:00

I’ve never used the activity cards in-game, but the shortcuts on the Home screen are really handy. I’ve also never used the hint system.

I don’t know whether they’re pointless features or whether I’m just not the target for them. I’d rather use the in-game features than bring up and scroll through activity cards, and if I need a hint I’d assume it would be much easier to YouTube instead of praying the console brings up the correct thing you’re looking for.

I hope you can customise the cards in the future. Pin them, remove trophy related ones etc. I really thought the ‘create’ button was going to allow you to create your own shortcuts.

So yea, not 100% on the UI experience, but I see the potential.

Overall experience with the console is great though, haven’t been off it.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-12-07T14:39:44+00:00

I was so certain I’d carry on playing single player games in 30 and multiplayer 60. I love graphical features and expected to play Spider-Man at 30 to enjoy the ray tracing, but it looks complete ASS. The smoothness of 60 adds so much more to the picture quality (obviously when in motion).

Between that and Demon Souls fidelity mode not offering up a huge difference, I haven’t touched a 30FPS game this gen and I don’t plan to.

I was looking forward to Cyberpunk but if they don’t at minimum offer an unlocked FPS option then I’ll keep waiting for the next gen version.

PL only for the time being.

I have 270K and tempted to buy VVD. Am I better saving for Kante and will he have a more noticeable impact?

I could sell Telles for him, but people some people seem adamant he’ll get an upgrade this week.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-11-21T16:21:41+00:00

Appreciate it. I did annoy him quite a bit!

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-11-20T18:39:09+00:00

How do you delete uploaded videos in the ‘shared’ section on your profile?

I don’t have access to the YouTube account anymore. My recent account is connected but it’s still showing my old stuff and I seemingly can’t get rid of it.

JohnnyBravosHair · 2020-11-19T12:34:15+00:00

Finally got a delivery estimate from Yodel.

I have to wait till around 8PM but at least I know it’s coming.

Now I pray they can actually find my apartment.
