*** Official FIFA 11 Thread ***

Any videos of the impact engine? Proper in game video, not the trailer.

Did you find players get tackled more? Did it slow down the pace of the game? I could see that being a problem.

What about tall/strong players vs weaker players. Does this come into effect? I've seen Messi shoulder barge his way through defenders like Richards and Kompany.

No gameplay vids yet, weren't allowed to record! Umm tackling is a totally different game. It requires perfect timing and positioning. Basically you press A to 'contain' which is ensentially the same as holdingnleft trigger in 11. This causes your player to jockey the player, and then you press B to go in for the tackle. It's much better than just holding A as in 11.

Player characteristics seem to be improved. Especially with the impact engine, messi won't be able to overpower bigger players, if he try he will just eat the dirt.

Generally the gameplay speed has slowed down but in a good way. With the new tackling you get more time on the ball, and have to really work to make space.

12 is so much better than 11, but still not perfect but debs assured us it will be much more polished.
 
Sounds good but it will be no doubt ridiculed with a ridiculous amount of game breaking bugs. EA servers being one of them!
 
Which Alex do you use? I was considering IF Alex before I got TOTY Nene - be great to hear an account of all three of those and how you play them - I really need someone to win headers and is a capable passer with some pace - a Brazilian Cambiasso...

ps3ud0 :cool:

I've only got the 85 Alex in CM form. I think he'd be better suited to CAM probably. He's not any good in the air though he is nippy and has great control. He plays a bit like Sneijder for me. I usually play him RCM.

Hernanes is on LCM and is more effective. He often pops up on the edge of the box and has a fantastic finesse shot - though you'll probably know about that anyway. Hernanes > Alex if you're wanting a Cambiasso style player.
 
OMS I wacked out the old PES6 the other day. It's best feature by a mile being QUICK menus, and I mean quick. Makes Fifa look like a pos.

Cool. Yea, tackling sounds much better. In Fifa 11, if you press x and o, your players are like homing missle rugby players.

My new team. Defence is killing teams.

Up front Im hoping a IF Fabiano and TOTY Pato partnership will work - Pato just suits me down to the ground so whomever Ive tried I just prefer him...
ps3ud0 :cool:

Should be an awesome partnership, I thought Fabiano was great, the best La liga striker I tried.
 
Will Fifa 11 UT's transfer over to Fifa 12? Would hate to start again in 12.

Yup, unfortunately you start again. They didn't show any UT but the showed abit of online which is awesome. You now have Experience and can level up etc, and are able to pledge your allegiance to your favourite club and earn points for them etc.

good game robert, your probably the best ive played off here, mind you if Declan had your team he probably would be really good too.

swap asamoah for inler if you can mate, i found asamoah to be useless, de rossi is better and costs like 2K, when i saw him running at my defence i backed off and went towards ibra i think it was, because i thought there is no way he is going to shoot with him, i laughed at your shot, lol.

rematch with my 2nd team next time?

Only played Asamoah for a few games. His states are good and I got him for 13k but he is useless like you say. Was just trying him out really. I have De Rossi and find him good. I just came off a 3-0 lose in final. Was feeling really down about lossing that. Rematch would be good.

yeah with his stats you would expect him to be amazing, but stats dont tell the full story, the reason why i have menez (750 coins) in my first team. i cannot find a better player for that position lol.

cant remember how much inler is but he is a lot better.
