(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hi, can anyone please give me advice on playing the gameI have several issues:

1. Defending is so confusing, so many buttons.
2. I just cant seem to get past the last man
3. Other teams attackers run past my defenders, but it never seems to work both ways

Please any help and information will be much appreciated.

No stupid remarks please, like im poor at the game, cause I think it's clear since im posting this, LOL

fifa 12 = pace

Yh I Figured that out, all my wingers and midfields are above 80+, Lennon, Nani, Hulk, Valencia.

But I cant seem to skip past defenders even with pace, they manage to drag me and steal the ball.

try changing formation as well as making lob and triangle passes (don't know the button for xbox)
also trigger runs :p

I used to get ragged by so many people but I played and played and played and I think ive gotten half decent and beat most people, its not how high your players are rated its how they perford for you, skills are for a skill person etc I recommend pace most people have slow shitty CB's cos they been spending it on the wank bank of shit packs x

For defending use this youtube tutorial


Attacking
When attacking your opponent don't always use sprint otherwise you won't be able to make sharp turns, by not sprinting you will be able out-manoeuvre the opposition.

Always make the most of through balls along the ground in the air - triangle for a through ball & r1 + triangle for a throughball in the air.

Try and use skill when appropriate, i suggest you follow some youtube videos for skill in fifa. This video should start you off




They're some basics, but you just have to keep practicing, good luck.

Thanks for the advice, I'll make most of the tutorials. In UT, I decided to use a real pacy squad, I have Bale, Lennon, Hulk & Hazard, in midfield and it realy does make it easy to play with fast players.

I've changed my buttons to make defending more like fifa 11. I've got A as tackle and B sends another player towards the ball. It's just like playing legacy, the only difference is that you have to press to tackle instead of holding it down.

As for attacking, just cut inside all the time. If you're struggling, just play like a total ****. Tramp the ball across goal if you have too! I've found that the higher up the rankings i've got the more people play like dicks
