Fifa Bicycle Kick

 Recently, as in today, I got the Xbox Achievement "Riding Bikes." What you have to do to unlock this achievement is score in a game with a bicycle kick. If you don't know what this is, here is a pic to show you.

It is an overhead kick, in which you jump and kick the ball backwards. In the video at the end of the post, Zlatan Ibrahimovic hits a stunning bicycle kick. It was beautiful.  Anyways, I have found an easy way to get this achievement. Start an exhibition match (You may use any team but a high star team is better) but before you start the match, go to settings and User Game Customization. Make the sprint speed and acceleration to 100 and the shot and pass error to 0. Go to CPU Game Customization and change sprint and acceleration to 0. Make the goalkeeper ability 0 and exit. As you play now, your players are incredibly fast  and accurate while the other GK will stink. Now quickly get the ball and sprint to the other side. When you reach the penalty box, turn so your back faces the keeper. For Xbox, click LT and repeatedly tap RB. The next part depends on your camera angle. While holding LT and clicking RB, flick the RS to the left and then hold LT and hit B. If done correctly, you will score and unlock the achievement. This is a good trick to use online and it never gets old. So, once again, here is Ibrahimovic's amazing bicycle kick.(In real life, that is) There is also a video of Matt Eliason scoring a bicycle kick in  a Messi and friends game. Amazing

FIFA 12 Tips and Tricks

For many years now, FIFA has reigned as the top rated game in my list. Be it Fifa 13, 12, 11, etc. Playing for over a year now, I think I finally understand the way the game works and I am here to share the few secrets I have discovered in the brief time I have played FIFA 12.


Tip 1: Don't worry about the higher levels (Semi-Pro, Pro, World Class, or Legendary) if you are a new player. There will time for those when you develop faster thumbs and quicker game reflexes. Just play with Amateur for maybe 50 matches and learn the way your team and players work
Tip 2: From the beginning, pick one team that you will choose as your best team. Work with this team and learn it's players, weaknesses, and strength
Tip 3: Know your players. Do not put a left footed player on the right as it makes your shot weaker. In most situations, (if you have your south paw player playing right forward) you will be forced to shoot with your right. This makes a weaker shot and the ball will not always be on target.
Tip 4; Don't always go for the 5 star teams when choosing. (Barca, Real Madrid, Man. Un., and the others.)
Some teams like Ivory Coast which is 4.5 stars can demolish a team like Barcelona.
Tip 5: Speed is 3/4 of the win. If you want to win, your strikers need to be quick on their feet and not be beaten by lousy defenders. As I said before, Ivory Coast can demolish teams like Barca, Madrid, or even Arsenal. Why? Because their strikers are incredibly fast.
Tip 6:  When running down the field with your left or right strikers, keep close to the out of bounds line. Don't pass it but don't stray too far from it. When the defenders go in for a tackle, the ball will either roll out of bounds, giving you a throw in, or you will regain possession farther ahead of the defender.
Tip 7; Don't do tricks when sprinting down the field. Instead of doing a rainbow over the defender or crossover or stepovers, pass the ball to your team. The only surefire way to always win is passing. No long passes. Short but perfect passes are the key to success.
Tip 8: Do not get mad or frustrated if you are unable to win. score, or defend. Keep a cool mind or your anger will greatly benefit the opponent.
Tip 9: When you are facing a goalie that runs out to stop you use the finesse shot. Chip it over his head to make sure it goes in.
Tip 10: When winning a match, waste as much time as you can. Pass the ball back and forth between your defenders and waste time so you know you will win.

That's all for know. More to follow up.
