The game is out and shipped already. What you get now is what you will get when it's officially released. So if the lag and disconnecting from the EA servers issues are still present, I will hate this game.

I can see the tactical defending system pissing me off. I think I won only 1 match in the demo because I can't get possession of the ball, yet the opponents get the ball from me easily.

Head-to-head matches are P2P (peer-to-peer) - most likely need to sort out your own connection. Put your console in a DMZ.

Only Clubs is played off the EA servers.

Yeah, I was referring to Clubs. When I play my friends and other people one-on-one matches, it's fine. However, I get frequent 2 second delays when in Pro Ranked Matches and in Clubs.

Yeah I think all they did to Clubs this year was sort out those issues - they admitted the problem themselves. Once all those issues are sorted hopefully they can start to introduce more features.

On my way to get the game!

Need to wait for my dad to get home on Thursday. Even then, he probably won't buy it for a while.

Wish I could buy it myself.

Just thought I'd play v every team on World Class as Arsenal, beat everyone and Rvp tormented every defence except Barca, I was 1-0 down then came back to 2-1 with two lovely Van Persie goals and then Iniesta equalised, in the last minute was going through with Gervinho to win it and he pulled up with an injury.

Loving this game though, feel comfortable on Tactical defending now, keeping clean sheets v World Class quite often, and scoring goals.

Can't wait for career mode.

Ask your mother.

Ask your mother.

If he done that and his mum bought it his dad would attack his mother.

Getting right after I get out of school today. If my teachers ask why my homework wasn't done I'll simply respond, FIFA 12.

Anyone on here ordered from The Hut? If so your game won't be sent out until Friday. Mate at work is in bits

Heading out to grab my copy now.

I preordered the game from Best Buy. I was checking the tracking number today and it said that it was processed today and it should be delivered on or before October 4. Fuck that shit!! I'm pissed at Best Buy now. I preordered this thing more than a month ago.

I will wait until the delivery man comes today. If he isn't here with the game, I'm going to my local Best Buy and grabbing a copy.

That's why I don't pre-order games (unless they come with something extra) just pick it up at your local game store the day it drops.

Well, I had a gift card from Best Buy. I was worried they would run out on release day considering non-gaming stores usually don't order enough copies of FIFA.

I have. Where did you hear this?

EDIT: Just saw it on my order details.

I don't like taking the risk of going there and it not being in stock.

Game comes out on a Friday

Me: "Do you have ________?"

Them: "No sorry its all sold out"

Me: "When do you next have it in stock?"

Them: "Let me check"

*10 mins later*

Them: "Our next lot come in next Thursday"

Me:

Happend to me with GTA.

Might pre-order tonight, I'll probably get the Ultimate Edition, where is the best place to get it from for reliability/price?

Gonna play a bit of career mode tonight on the pre release

Lucky for you, GTA sucked.

I do a bit of what Dena does and a bit of Gegil, Pre-Order so that I can go in shop and pick it up with no risk of it being sold out, reserving a copy.

Order = cancelled.

Edit: It says it's been dispatched .

I'll be pissed if the supermarkets have it for £40+

I just seen you talking about Pre-Ordering so I assumed you did, and it is similar.

With the exception of GTA Advance and GTA Chinatown Wars, every GTA released after GTA 2 has been incredible, a triumph.
