  1. Hello, I am facing a problem when I used to play with my friend in 2 player match. He uses keyboard using custom control. I use Controller. Now i also want use the alternate or custom settings for my controller. But it seems i can’t. Basically, what is happening, if both of use custom controls then only can play with their own settings, others is switched to classic. Its very irritating. Is there any solution? TIA.

  2. I can’t find press in my button configurations “x” is displayed as contain and no other button has the press option how can I retrieve press or set it to reappear thank u all

    1. @Timothy: There is no control for “press”. In the Tactics (d-pad) you can choose “Team Press”.
      For PS4 Button x is “contain” – in the “Classic” adjustment in the Controller Settings.
      If you have Button problems go back to this “Classic” adjustment.
      From Alternative (mostly used by Ex-PES players) or your custom settings (which i would not advice, because you get great problems with some commands which are maybe very complicated then)..

      @Johnny:Lob Pass is square, but there are some other options too (Lobbed through ball etc.) for high passing.
      —-
      @Muhmmhad: choose Classic in the controller settings, then all buttons are fixed.

      There are nearly 100 control button commands, i suggest you practise every one offline against a very weak KI so you can really understand what the commands are doing.
      The information on this site is really good afaik.
      Sure you cannot use all in an online game, but its good to understand them.

  3. x in my version of fifa 2o is press
    circle in my version of fifa 20 is to teammate press
    R1 is usless in my fifa 20 version
    there is no option of standing tackle in my fifa 20 version

    how can i fix that ?

  4. They should add
    Sicko mode by travis scott to the sound track

    Add fifa street features and make an open game feature so we can use the money we get in careers.
    Add awards where the best player awards are given seeing them like reality
