Time to discard my Fifa 11 Ultimate team and buy packs with the earnings.

Anyone else noticed that holding LB/L1 gives you some sort of super-close control.

Seems to slow you down loads though, difficult to get any momentum on passes and shots are pretty weak :/

Nice for getting out of a tight spot though!

It's the new precision dribbling.

FUT 12.

Also, I don't like Alan Smith. It sounds like he's eating his own face when he talks.

Robbo · 18 Sep 2011 at 14:51

I don't mind Alan Smith actually, I did like Andy Gray though.

peterattheboro · 18 Sep 2011 at 15:21

Andy Gray got boring. At least it's a new voice this year.

Robert1986 · 18 Sep 2011 at 15:31

last.fm > Alan Smith

I agree it's a good change.

The commentary seems perfectly fine to me so far, and there will probably be even more of it (more phrases etc) in the final release too.

I do miss Andy Gray, they should have put female officials in the game and just forced him to record some praiseful sound bytes! Alan Smith is more dull than you can imagine! Still, could have been worse, could have been Mark Lawrenson?

They should have cutouts to Chris Kamara after a big play, which he will have missed..

So whats with the RB/R1 and pass, it does that weird pass thing. I don't get what the point of it is

?

To make conceding cutbacks online even more annoying!

cutbacks arnt as easy to do now imo, ive played a good 15 matches against friends now and the defenders track back very well, some amazing defending, just the same as through balls and lobbed passes arnt as easy to pull off against the new defending.

mmmm tuesday

What do people mean by UT is out Tuesday? Is that the web based thing?

Yes it is the web based app

Me and a few hardcore fifa mates have come to the conclusion after playing the demo a lot that it is crap and unenjoyable to play against the CPU. As they seem to have a force field around them yet can take the ball off yourself with ease! Also they seem to intercept passes rather roo easily.

IMO they should have based player vs CPU matches on how your typical player vs player match pans out. By this i mean to base how often passes are intercepted for example.

Somethnig i found is that my players were in bad positions a lot of the time. But this is probably due to me lacking skill!
