Pretty Hard

Was playing on Professional, and at least the non football guys won't be having a breeze, it's like you have to have a knowledge of football to play, I played two different games, passing and move, passing and move, which is how I usually play. Then just charging all around with the likes of Messi, and at least these kids won't be noobing it, the tactical awarness of players is amazing, really good realism in this demo too, thoughts?

I played Barca versus Madrid, on World Class they ripped me apart, the opposition is so much better, Ronaldo was doing all sorts of tricks to beat my defence.

Yeah same haha, the shots are so realistic form long range, how they dip and bounce and swerve, mental.

Yeah, noticed that. It's a lot tougher than last year - saying that, once we get used to it, we'll be saying it's easy..

I like it. Still haven't scored in open play but they need to sort out the penalty thing. Players like Xabi Alonso and Higuain are blasting over every time they do the shuffle.

Everyone I've talked to doesn't like the penalty system, mad. I think it's more realistic, penalties aren't as easy as everyone thinks. But, then I get the same answer "They're so easy in real life it's only 12 yards".

I like them, I'm used to them though because I have the World Cup game. I can get them right in the bottom corners nearly every time.

Yeah, I have the WC game, the touches players take are really good, some have one of a bulldozer, the others like Xavi just gently caress it in their metatarsals.

Lovely use of the English language.

Haha yeah, I'm usually really anal about spelling and grammar, but I probably used the only two words that i can't spell...

Oh I didn't mean it like that I meant the lovely poetic choice of words

Haha Sorry, thanks btw 3 minute halves is an improvement too, and Be-a-Goalkeeper is looking good, pretty hard making saves against Kaka when your on the edge of the box, gonna be a right lol on 11 vs 11 matches.

Gonzalo (Higuain) Rounded Valdes Intelligent AI for once?

Haha, I hope so. The AI look so much more aware, I went to play the ball across to smash into an empty net and the opposition just whipped their back legs out to stop it at all costs.

I'll try my luck from distance sometimes

I like it, it's just that the opposistion are always missing.

AI is deffo more intelligent. I took a short goal kick to first defender and Higuain nicked in and put it in the open net.

Fucking twat.

What's Messi's celebration if you hold A? is it the little thing he does where he bounces his head?

It's so easy to defend, but hard to score because AI play with too much pressure and aggression, every time I get the ball in their half, there are at least 3 players charing at me.

I love it. Very realistic in all areas.

So it's not just me then. Shame, I was thinking that I was intimidating their players and making them miss..

It's definitely harder to get past defenders right now. I love the AI using skill moves; I have been owned by it a few times now.

I think it is awesome, it is making the player think for once instead of just pressing L1 X and beeing a noob. Also I love getting it to Essien and Lampard and having a good dipping shot from 30 or so yards.

Im glad it's harder because i used Legendary on Fifa 10 and it became really easy.
Only shit thing are those bloody penalties, i never had Fifa WC so i dont know what i have to do to score. When i draw i just quit the game because know matter what i do i either put them over or wide, never on target .

First, press Square when it's on the green, then pull where you want it to go slightly.

You know Rutter was talking about signature celebrations?
How do you do them?

No idea, i cant really work them out either. I like how the teammates get involved in some of them by jumping, hugging etc. On Fifa 10 they just waved their arms in the air.

They always ruin mine, I'm about to launch into a triple backflip thing with Anelka and Drogba suddenly grabs my chest and spins me around so the celebration stops.

You press A to do signature celebrations


Its impossible to save penalty's down the middle my keeper trys to save it but just falls backwards on his arse.

the celebrations are phuckin' awesome!!
