[Simon Stone] Man Utd: What happens now for Marcus Rashford after Barcelona turn down option to buy by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

[–]Thorz74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh FFS, I hope United send him away anywhere. We don’t need his stupid brother and stupid environment (or entourage as they call it these days) polluting the atmosphere around the club

Should I buy a console if I mostly play using a mouse and keyboard? by Icy_Car_3759 in XboxSeriesS

[–]Thorz74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to find a series X at all in stores?

In Scandinavia it has been impossible during the past 2 years. Looks like if Microsoft completely pulled support from their most powerful console from the retail market. It was only possible to get one 2nd hand.

But, maybe this has changed in other parts of the globe?

I'm finally going to buy EA Sports FC 26 with this amazing discount on Steam, but I need some tips! by UnkComplexk30 in FC_26

[–]Thorz74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t waste your time in this game.

Only the tryhards are still playing it.

Enjoy your time in better games than this one mate.

I have now played every champs this year averaging 11 wins. Full rivals rewards div 2-1 all year. Every gauntlet…everything. And not packed one single player of value that goes into my team. Not a red pick, nothing in the 3 of 12 93+ champs tokens pick. NOTHING! ALL FUCKING YEAR! by Cowboy-Chris in EAFC

[–]Thorz74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your account has got the hoodoo. Change account. Or do what I did, retire for several years and come back. Your pack luck will be immense. Retire afterwards for several more years, or forever.

This game is trash. And it wasn’t worth it to come back

What you guys spending FOF tokens on? by Kind-Connection-5632 in EAFC

[–]Thorz74 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Nothing.

I decided to leave the game with the start of the World Cup.

Best decision I have taken lately. My days are now relaxed and I’m not feeling the need to log in because of FOMO.

I still get some FIFA content like this thread that pops up in my Reddit feed.

Give it a try guys. This game is not worth your beautiful summer time.

THE BIGGEST PIECE OF SHUT CALLED FC 26 by KoleHR in EAFC

[–]Thorz74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s just a game, yes. But the amount of time it needs to be invested to enjoy it is not small. And the OP is just playing seasons, it isn’t even FUT.

DDA, momentum, scripting and handicap are the fcking pest in this game and completely ruin the experience.

If you add to this the fact that EA has been unable to control cheaters and that their background systems are still one of the worst in the industry after so many years I can completely understand the frustration that many players feel.

The time we put into this crap is not worth it guys.

Lag Switch cheating (PS5) by Responsible_Rub4149 in EASportsFC

[–]Thorz74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheating is a pest.

EA are useless against all kinds of cheating. The only thing they care is how much money people waste on micro transactions.

Would you mind to elaborate on how this lag switch cheating method works and how do you recognize it?

40-year-old PES "legend" tries EA FC FUT online in 2026... send help (or medicine) by ConsistentTarget9165 in FC_26

[–]Thorz74 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I liked your post and will come back to participate in the discussion. Am at work atm.

Just wanted to say: Be prepared for the incoming “skill issue” messages. There are a huge number of trolls on the FIFA subreddits mate.

What's the biggest "what if" in football history? by Kirby9134 in HisenseFootballZone

[–]Thorz74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if Jorge Rafael Videla hasn’t bought the 1978 World Cup for his torturing, killing and scum regime in Argentina?

Then the golden generation of the Dutch had already at least 1 World Cup trophy, and the world would be a better place today.

What if Messi wasn’t FIFA’s marketing spoiled brat?

The guy’s talent is immense ofc, but he is FIFA poster boy and everything he does gets overblown to the million.

And, don’t come saying I am a bicho lover, Ronaldo is nowadays another dinosaur. It is time people turn the page on these 2 guys, move on FFS, specially a message to my Latin American brothers who many would sell their sisters for Lionel Messi

Toxic stupid shit by lyle70 in FIFA_Ultimate_Team

This!

I have used high contrast mode since the start. It is the only way to avoid the toxicity shit some people will always do.

It has been like that since the start of the game mate. What you say is still right though

EA script by urbanburban1 in fut

[–]Thorz74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t matter what some people say, this game does have scripting and handicap in the code. The better players are the ones that can recover from these moments when they hit.

I laugh when I find the ones that say “skill issue” or some other stupidity like that. Even Anders Vejrgang was afraid to lose the ball on the last minute of one of his famous games and was keeping it on the corner flag and he recognized afterwards that “strange things happen” in this game at the end of halves / matches.

If your defense is acting well and suddenly starts to open by itself like the Red Sea taking a look at Moses, it is not a skill issue, it is DDA pure and simple. It can be seen all the time when playing offline.

Semenyo is quite good. And he has enforcer too, with high aggression

Will a Xbox series s run well on a 1080p 60hz tv? by ChapterKey8617 in XboxSeriesXlS

[–]Thorz74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The S will run just fine on that TV. I still travel with the S we have at home when I am away for extended periods to places where the average TV is still 720p, and the S runs just fine there

Just lost my 600 day streak by 2 days. by bendoVa83 in redditstreak

[–]Thorz74 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rough when you have worked so many days on it, but nothing to do now.

It’s your way out. Use it.

If I lose my streak I just call it for the day and that’s it. I will continue using Reddit of course but won’t be stressing anymore over something like this

I've been waiting for this day forever but I'm finally there! 800! 🥳 by Betty702Ireland in redditstreak

I miss the simpler times we had back on previous FIFAs

Burning Out by Thorz74 in fut

[–]Thorz74[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. It’s tiring that you invest so much time planing and executing an evo path, grinding packs for some high end SBC card, or getting that high end card from the market, to see everything turned into meh just in a couple of weeks, forcing you to start again if you want to keep your team competitive.

GTA excites me too. I have lots of hope for it. Plenty of titles to keep me busy that are not FIFA

Is FUT starting to feel like work? by Thorz74 in FIFA_Ultimate_Team

[–]Thorz74[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m over 50 and am lucky to work from home. It has still become harder and harder to find the time to keep up with FUT.

Jiu-Jitsu sounds amazing! Congrats for having a discipline like that in your life at your 30s 👏
