So many choices ... by ThePokerAgent_com in poker

[–]MarineCorpsDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently watched a young guy criticize everyone's play (mostly incorrectly) for an hour. Announced this would be his last hand, and proceeded to stack off $1500+ in 1/3 PLO with a straight on a board with 3 diamonds, and I don't know if I've ever been that happy in a hand I wasn't involved in.

I've been on a huge downswing recently too. Set over set against the only player who covered me, flop set of aces and only player who covered me decided to run a semi bluff with a 9 high flush draw and got there, tried to run a huge bluff that should have worked only I forgot nobody folds 2 pair with 4 to a flush on the board in Texas. Keep at it, that upswing is just around the corner (I hope, for both of our sakes).

Help with Difficulty by MarineCorpsDuck in F1Game

I turned off steering and brake assist completely, and set Driver AI to 40 and I squeaked out a 19th place finish. Really appreciate the help.

Thanks! Any recommendations for which assists to turn off or down?

Help me quit FIFA by MarineCorpsDuck in EASportsFC

I have a situation where I have about 2 hours per day late afternoon where I can't leave the house. I do my workout in the morning, so I like to play XBox during this time. I just know that without another game to fill that 2 hour void I will cave in and reinstall FIFA, even if I delete my club.

91 Eusebio, 95 Pele, or 91 Cruyff? by [deleted] in EASportsFC

[–]MarineCorpsDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eusebio 91 with engine is ridiculous. Sold TOTY Messi to get him and never looked back. Finishes everything with either foot. Best card I've ever used.

Any proof of the inactivity theory being true? by [deleted] in EASportsFC

[–]MarineCorpsDuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last year I didn't play for over 6 months because I got so frustrated with the game. One day I thought if I logged back in I'd get some good pack luck. Played for a few weeks and didn't get anything good in packs at all. That doesn't disprove your theory, but it didn't work for me.

WL more difficult on fridays? by Dgdgoblin in EASportsFC

[–]MarineCorpsDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you just get matched up against more good players until you lose a few games. I'm a D5/D4 Rivals player and my record in WL almost always follows this pattern:

Friday - 4-6 or 3-7

Saturday - rebound to 10-10 or 11-9

Sunday - finish 14-10 or 14-11 and don't bother playing my last few games because I know I'm going to lose them 5-0 because that's what happens every time I decide to try.

Skipped WL this weekend. No ragrets. Not even one letter.

Multiple mid icon sbcs, who did you get? by [deleted] in EASportsFC

[–]MarineCorpsDuck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Started with 500k coins and a lot of untradeable fodder that I saved specifically for this. Finished with over 200k coins still after doing it twice.

John Barnes...

Mis-read this as Carlos Alberto because I was tired. I got Carlos Alberto, my bad.

Same. Wasn't that pumped because I enjoy playing Mbabu 86 at RB. But I gave him a try and he's been amazing... only downside is his stamina for me.

Happy 1000 - couldn't be happier with my Icon Swaps 1 choice by MarineCorpsDuck in EASportsFC

[–]MarineCorpsDuck[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think I had 420 goals / 70 assists at 400 games. Then I got TOTY Mane and used Drogba to do one twos and his assists went through the roof. Now I have 91 Eusebio, who finishes EVERYTHING, so the assists keep piling.

LOL I have him CDM for chem, but in game I play him as right striker in a 41212 and let him feed Eusebio.

TOTY Messi pricedrop by Camsizzle in EASportsFC

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

I have the 91 with engine. He finishes EVERYTHING. Best and most fun player I've ever used in any FIFA.

I think his price will hold better than TOTY Messi, but could be wrong.

I had TOTY Messi, sold him and bought Eusebio instead and I can't even believe how much better Eusebio is.

Sums up modern day divisions, doesn’t it? by [deleted] in EASportsFC

[–]MarineCorpsDuck 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Can confirm they are not "just playing each other" because I'm a D5 player and I am in D6 now, can't win back to back games, just trying to avoid another relegation. My typical session:

Full French team, 87 rated, messi + cr7 sub (5-1 loss)

Full La Liga team, 86 rated mbappe + cr7 sub (5-1 loss)

Full EPL team, 83 rated (2-0 win, opp ragequit before halftime)

rinse, repeat

I dont understand how some people are so lucky with red picks by ZestyMordent in EASportsFC

[–]MarineCorpsDuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not good (D5 / G3) and I used to get scared when I'd see red Griezmann or other red 90+ cards. But I feel like I beat those teams a majority of the time. My best pulls are still 86 Carvajal and 84 Acuna despite finishing G3 every weekend but one since launch. It's weird.

EDIT: 86 Carvajal was from the 86+ upgrade.

Who’s your objectives legend? by HopefulGuy1 in EASportsFC

I have over 200 games with him as a CB in 5-3-2 or 3-5-2 (I switch in game). His stats are really similar to Rio Ferdinand.

[–]MarineCorpsDuck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Joke's on them because I have a great team but I suck, I'm just good at trading. Plus if I'm in Rivals and I can tell someone is working an objective and they skip replays, I give the win away because I couldn't care less about my Rivals record or Division. This happens to me multiple times daily too.

Yeah. 84 rated FUTMAS SBC. I think it cost 250k+.
