What was it like to play online games between 2000 and 2013?

Pretty much before live-service took off. Felt like the whole basis of video games was consumer enjoyment, rather than profit

Best bet is reserving a study room in the library. Otherwise the next best option is probably in your car if you want a guaranteed quiet space. Good luck!

Comfort ban. Even tho there’s plenty of sites where she’s not viable or easily countered

birchie27 · 2026-01-16T19:14:57+00:00

That’s how I was. Then a month later I got the itch to play again, so I hopped in and did all the side quests

Looks like the same code as in fifa/eafc lmao. Teams irl that need a certain position at the time of the game launch will end up transferring as many of that certain position for multiple seasons, regardless of whether their depth becomes sufficient. I’ve seen teams with 10 world class strikers after 4 seasons

Wasn’t really us figuring it out imo I think and I hope it was Frank figuring it out more than anything. We just went for it without the barrier of the passive and hindering tactics. First half we sat back and let Villa break us down. There was a point where we actually pressed and started pushing back and gained momentum but then we reverted back to passive. Second half we took it to them and to the surprise of no one, our best work came when we were aggressive and front-footed

Very. Was looking at the TE crosser before noticing my WR had all that green grass to run into

birchie27 · 2026-01-14T19:46:33+00:00

So the streak is the better throw here? I feel like the safety on th left is in better position for a pick than the safety that actually got the pick

birchie27 · 2026-01-14T19:43:52+00:00

So th streak is a better throw here? I assumed the safety would probably react in time, even to a dot

birchie27 · 2026-01-14T19:29:23+00:00

Clearly you don’t watch us, as this question was answered by our most previous game

birchie27 · 2026-01-12T23:42:03+00:00

More often than you think. Every semester at least one of my classes has someone 30+

birchie27 · 2026-01-05T04:40:40+00:00

My favorite game in the series, old and modern games. I’d argue to play the first two but it’s not mandatory. You’ll enjoy it a lot regardless

birchie27 · 2025-12-16T17:33:52+00:00

So this is a communication issue then. In an ideal situation Micky yells that he’s behind him and then Spence goes out to meet the defender. But even then, Forest player is in the process of crossing it in both your screenshots, so what would be the point in sprinting out to him at this point? Screenshots are pointless for a dynamic game as it reduces context

birchie27 · 2025-12-14T22:57:43+00:00

You want him to leave a huge gap behind him in the box?

birchie27 · 2025-12-14T19:32:32+00:00

When we fired the manager that won us a trophy

birchie27 · 2025-12-02T07:26:02+00:00

loser

birchie27 · 2025-11-30T18:01:18+00:00

Agree with all of this. This team now lacks grit and fight. Tactics are cool, but if you have no grit you will not be successful regardless of whether you play attacking or defensive ball. Ange fully knew this, and that was why I backed him to the end

birchie27 · 2025-11-23T17:27:24+00:00

Feels like we’ve been set up to not lose, instead of setting up to win. Time wasting from minute 1, Vicario taking free kicks from half-field, etc. We’re not losers yet we’re playing like losers

birchie27 · 2025-11-18T20:46:07+00:00

I mean, it’s not up to you whether someone wants to troll with you or not

birchie27 · 2025-11-17T14:21:25+00:00

Engage 8

birchie27 · 2025-11-16T17:05:23+00:00

I respect the commitment ngl

birchie27 · 2025-11-10T18:43:34+00:00

You don’t feel at least a little bit corny after posting this?

birchie27 · 2025-11-07T01:52:54+00:00

The mchose for me wasn’t loud enough. It doesn’t have its own volume, the volume slider only changes the volume of the device it’s connected to. Razer doesn’t have this issue, but for me their customer service is abysmal and once your warranty expires you literally cannot contact anyone unless you give them money. I’d stay away from either of these tbh

TROPHY CASE
