EA have announced that they’ve scrapped their online pass. Going forward you’ll no longer need to use the extra code to play your games online. But what else have they got in store?
One of the most eagerly awaited in form teams, the Barclays Premiership Team of The Season, has landed in FUT packs today. The team includes the best players in the Premiership this season chosen by members of the EA Sports community.
The line up, unsurprisingly very similar to the PFA’s own team of the year with a couple of exceptions, includes some of the best known footballers in the league and is bursting with of pace, ability and power.
Just a week after Joey Barton’s brother sold his personal Ultimate Team card for a record breaking amount, another professional player’s personal card has made it onto the market. This time Gareth Bale’s 95 rated personal card was listed for sale in the very early hours of this morning.
When the FUT market crashes (even more) and the the hoarders finally break into their stock piles of coins and FIFA points you know it’s time for Team of The Season.
This year in FIFA 13 the schedule’s similar to last year with each TOTS remaining in packs for 1 week at a time before making way for the next one. There’ll be 8 in total and we’ll bring you them all.
Custom Audio was introduced in FIFA 11 and has remained a feature in series ever since. It allows you to add your own audio to FIFA to provide another level of depth and realism to an already pretty atmospheric game.
Although not as big a deal has been made about custom audio recently we highly recommend adding chants to take your career mode game to the next level in terms of atmosphere and immersion.
Last night Ultimate Team players got a shock when a when an unusual, light blue card cropped up in their player searches. Joey Barton’s personal ramped up Ultimate Team card had been listed for sale for a starting price of 5,583,000 coins.
Following the initial FIFA 14 reveal, EA have released some more details regarding how your AI team-mate intelligence will effect your play.

We’re seven months into this year’s FIFA and still have a fair way to release but already we can start whetting our appetite with some of the features we can look forward to come FIFA 14 in September this year.
It seems our April Fools post could have been a little closer to reality than we initially imagined. A while back Fernanda Schabarum of Boca Raton, Florida started a petition to tell EA Sports to include female characters on their FIFA games and had that petition taken off we could have been a lot closer to seeing women’s football in FIFA 14 than we are now.

The FIFA Development Team at EA SPORTS have been put on display in a new video. Now we can go behind the scenes and see who’s responsible for the amazing features, the highlights that make it great and the pitfalls that frustrate us.
A lot of people that have watched some of my videos have asked about my controller setting and what’s the best setup to give you the competitive edge in FIFA 13. So I put together this video to show you the controller settings I use that give me the most control I can get but still be competitive at the highest level of FIFA.
More FIFA 14 news as EA have confirmed that they’ll be introducing women’s football into FIFA 14.

Early reports from FIFA Kulte suggest that FIFA 14 could include the Blue Square Premier League.
They claim that according to Blue Square PR Manager Alan Alger, the Blue Square Premier League could be making an appearance in the next edition of FIFA.
KSIOlajidebt lines up against Emmanuel Frimpong in a battle of FIFA 13 that takes testosterone levels through the roof. The banter was rife from the off. If these two were CM and RF in a 4-3-2-1 formation on Ultimate Team they’d both have 9 chem!
The last time 2 people this made for each other met under these circumstances Richard Gere had to buy Julia Roberts a whole new wardrobe in Pretty Woman.
Luckily for Frimpong though, KSI brought his own wardrobe… Well… Captain America’s wardrobe…
With the next generation of consoles on the horizon one can be forgiven for worrying more about the graphics and gameplay that this new processing power’s going to bring our way and less about the more superficial things in the game.
But it’s the little things in the FIFA series that mount up without you even realising to give it such depth and variety that keeps us playing all year round.

Pro goalkeepers have often been accused as overpowered but in FIFA 13 they’re beatable from range. This tutorial will show you the best way to score past pro keepers from distance.
This FIFA 13 heading tutorial breaks winning headers down into 3 steps and also provides a few quick tips that some people might not be aware of.
If you finish in style you’re going to want to celebrate in style. Now you can learn the controls to all the FIFA 13 Celebrations and do just that.
I don’t know about you but I do the same celebration every single time I score because I invariably waggle the stick and bash the buttons in the same seemingly random pattern.
The result is the same slide across the pitch on my knees which was probably good the first time I saw it. After the hundredth time though it becomes a bit mundane and each time I do it I’m cursing the fact that once again I forgot to try something different.
This week Matt Cuttle and Darren Cross give us their FIFA 13 First Touch Control tips to help you cope and even benefit from your players first touch in FIFA 13.
First Touch Control was a new feature introduced to FIFA 13 and as well as bringing more realistic gameplay also brought an element of unpredictability to the game.
Things like rain, snow, speed of pass, speed and direction of the receiver’s run, player’s ball control all contribute to the success of your first touch but there are some things you can do to mitigate the bad touches and even work the first touch in your favour.
Sometimes a couple of yards of space is all you need in FIFA 13 to create a goal scoring chance or gain the upper hand on your opponent but against containing defenders sometimes a couple of yards of space isn’t that easy to come by. Darren Cross from Match magazine comes to The Boot Room again, this time to show us how he loses markers in FIFA 13 and creates that all important space on the pitch.
In this installment we feature the Top Pace Belgium Abuse Players in FIFA 13. It’s separated into 3 groups of Gold, Silver, and Bronze players and each group is a mix of Belgian nationals and non-Belgians playing in the Jupiler League.
Match Magazine’s Darren Cross talks FIFA 13 tactics once again with Matt Cuttle in another episode of The Boot Room.
This time it’s all about taking your thumb off the buttons and using the right thumbstick.
The right thumbstick is mainly associated with skills but when used without the left trigger can turn your first touch into a stroke of genius.
Using the left thumbstick can take you past defenders, create time and space and also be used to beat goalkeepers.
Check out the FIFA 13 Tactics video to find out how and when to use it.
Want a cheaper, faster way to put together a fast, effective team? Try players from the Saudi League. Because it’s a relatively unknown and unpopular league (FIFA13 is the first time it’s appeared in the game), decent players can be found for cheap.
Christmas has been and gone and the New Year brings new players to the FIFA scene so I thought I’d start the new year by going back to basics and listing 8 fundamental FIFA 13 tips that will instantly up your game if you’re not doing them already.
Applying these FIFA 13 tips is probably the easiest way to improve your play.

When I first got my hands on the FIFA 13 guide I was told that it would be updated throughout the year. It makes sense, the game was relatively new when the first edition of the guide was released and gameplay online evolves all the time and new techniques (and I hate to say it, glitches) appear all the time.
Obviously the fundamentals of FIFA 13 are going to remain the same but just like in any game or sport it’s the players that adapt and fine tune their game that will dominate online in the long term.
Yesterday Joey dropped me an e-mail to tell me he’d just released the 2nd edition of his successful guide and added some great resources.
In Joey’s own words:
Ever bought a player that you thought was going to be great based on their overall (OVR) FUT rating but turned out to be a flop on the pitch? We all know that FUT’s overall rating can be a bit misleading at times so who are really the best players in FIFA 13 Ultimate Team?
Use the Z Rating to find out!
I found the overall rating system FIFA used was a little misleading sometimes, and that players were “praised” for having a high attribute rating for things that weren’t important for their position. This made it difficult to find the true best players in FIFA 13 Ultimate Team.
