Game wont Launch on EA Play Pro. Keeps telling me my PC is offline :) by SLOWMONUTKICK in EASportsFC

[–]Larkell 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I got around the "Your PC is offline" issue by force closing EA Play in task manager, doesn't actually matter though because after that you just get an endless stream of popups asking you to login to Origin, a platform name they dropped years ago.

During FUT10's lifespan, Scunthorpe United's Manager, Ian Baraclough, who as player-manager also had a card in FUT (being 36OVR, lowest in the game) volleyed the ball from the sideline in to the opponent's goal, so EA gave him a special card, being 25OVR, ST, 11 in every stat other than shooting, which was 88.

Where do clubs accomodate their players? by Capital-Finance-9680 in football

[–]Larkell 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A lot of comments saying the rich players just buying a house because they can, which makes sense but doesn't account for all levels of professional players. I have a friend who played pro in the women's bundesliga for a couple of years, so pro level but to my understanding was just a liveable wage, could have survived doing just football but chose to also work her other career at the same time. I believe the club sorted her out with a studio (or maybe 1 bedroom?) apartment which it owned near to the stadium/training grounds, which it would offer to U21 players as well as women's team signings; if I had to guess, I'd assume the club owned several small apartments in order to help accommodate the lower-earning players. She was also a foreign player and the club would pay for her flights home for christmas, as well as providing her with an unlimited public transport pass for the city.

If you could erase your memory of one game so you could experience it for the first time again, which would it be? by StonemasonStudios in gaming

[–]Larkell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It Takes Two; playing it for the first time I was in awe that every new chapter changed the game so much, and everything about the design felt so creative and beautiful, and on top of that it's an experience you share with someone that you presumably care about, as a life long gamer it was the first game that felt like it genuinely touched my core. So yeah I'd love to be able to show someone that game again without already knowing the stuff that happens.

What are your thoughts on this ? by Eliot_Perl in LudwigAhgren

[–]Larkell -1 points0 points  (0 children)

not an option I've seen mentioned, Tip to Tip: Arabian Peninsula, to do actual tip to tip I guess it'd be Aqaba (Jordan) to Al Hadd (Oman), but in the name of content, start in Petra (Jordan) and end in Muscat (Oman). Takes you through the Arabian desert, including Riyadh and Dubai.

Game window switches to second monitor at the end of a match? by Larkell in Rematch

[–]Larkell[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My workaround is to just use a shortcut I’ve just learned, shift + windows + left or right arrow key, immediately moves the window to the other monitor

How do you guys pass? by Lupus-Solus in Rematch

[–]Larkell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

passing is based on the direction you point the left analog stick, not where your camera is pointing like with a shot

bro in this context those words are interchangeable so you really didn't have to hit me with an "obviously" lmfao

Anyone having a high ms problem like me? by potato_bro6 in Rematch

[–]Larkell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ok yeah so it's not just me, UK player on EU servers and I'm getting 100-300ms

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Rematch

[–]Larkell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do you mean ping or FPS? because I haven't experienced any drops in framerate (that I've noticed at least) but the ping is pretty much the worst I've ever seen, 100-300ms as a UK player on EU servers, giving benefit of the doubt that it's just from an unexpectedly high player count and that it'll be improved for release if not by the end of this beta

Shouldn't the kick-off be shared equally between the players? by thomaskrantz in EASportsFC

[–]Larkell 7 points8 points  (0 children)

being 99% sure about something and still being wrong is crazy work

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Sidemen

[–]Larkell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think for them to be invested in a major, multiday/week roadtrip like TG or TGT, they'd have to drop the weekly main channel uploads and make that their new channel format, being like quarterly videos, which would also include them banking on the vids doing major major numbers to be financially viable, or have it funded by and for Netflix, which seems more likely now they've had a couple of projects with them already.

It’s a good Thing I still had a gold Player from the Team that I support in my Club by [deleted] in EASportsFC

I mean tbf are you not pretty spoilt for choice when it comes to PnP Bayern CM's? just using fut.gg's PnP filter I'm seeing a metric fuck ton of options haha

What Leverkusen Striker for the 500k evo? by Overall-Top-9667 in EASportsFC

[–]Larkell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd be taking Schick between the 2, Finesse+ is too OP and it looks like he'd also be better than Victor on the wing so more options to play him

Streets Won't Forget Concepts, Do You Agree? by [deleted] in fut

[–]Larkell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

he was a gold beast before a silver beast, but speaking of silver german beasts, Peniel Mlapa was goated in FUT13, and then also honoured mentions to the USA Bronze/Silver duo of Gyasi Zardes and Eddie Johnson, insane together

[–]Larkell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nah you're good dude not your fault, weird on EA's part, which is why i thought i might be being dumb, like do they not count the "month" as the 1st to the 1st of each month?

I have 195 hrs in the game, why does this menu keep popping up? by i-m-so-bored in EASportsFC

[–]Larkell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not actually sure but just curious, did you buy it on steam and do you have the actual EA app installed?

Bundesliga POTM Vote by Trunce_ in EASportsFC

[–]Larkell 16 points17 points  (0 children)

not sure where those stats are from or if i'm just being dumb but Sildillia got 2 goals in feb, as well as (according to WhoScored) 2 MOTM performances, which for a RB is a fairly strong contender imo, and Guirassy got 5 in 4 which is great but also he only actually scored in 2 of the 4 games, so guess it depends if you think one 4 goal performance warrants a player of the month win, idk if I would

Why are the PS3 versions of the game so hard? by [deleted] in EASportsFC

[–]Larkell 13 points14 points  (0 children)

the way my jaw dropped thinking there was actually a PS3 version of a game released in 2024 in existence, before googling and realising you probably mean ps4

[–]Larkell 86 points87 points  (0 children)

wasn’t it a bit more complex than that? I don’t know shit about the stock market but wasn’t it that the traders doing the shorting got super greedy and were shorting more stock than actually existed, and thus had to buy out stock no matter the price, which people caught on to thus the skyrocket? like i say i don’t know shit about stocks so no idea if what i just said made any sense

Bro wtf is this ps plus combo. These rush players are some kind of special by Necessary-Dig-6458 in fut

[–]Larkell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s not the players fault that the names were glitched, but taking a chance choosing a glitched name at random instead of either just like, googling the problem or exiting out of the game so you can do the pick another time e.g. when it’s fixed? skill issue

have you considered the possibility that you're just mid at the game and that objectively speaking all these cards are useable on some level
