I'm guessing it's only going to be 1 half or a short game, but still looking forward to it.
My mate and I have recently added ourselves through the "Be a Pro" thing or whatever it is, but then you're default in your teams squad. You're so s**t its funny. Revelinho is tall but thats about his only quality. Lacks any pace, accuracy, power or positioning skills
It's funny tho because you forget all about passing it to your team and just make yourself want to score.
woop woopFifa demo out Friday.
Questions..
1) How long is the demo? Half a game? 5mins each way?
2) Do you get the arena bit with multiple players?
3) What teams are available?
Tricks work better, you can really tell when you're in control of a good dribbler.
Loving the " Tony Adams " style defensive blocks..
CPU has just had a shot from about 25 yards out, on the right sideline of the pitch. I'm thinking "what the hell? stupid glitch!"
Nope, the CPU saw more keeper was way off the line, smashed it over everyone including the goalie, and hit the bar
Nice.
Long passes are MILES better! A lot more zip to them, quality
Lots of good new animations, I love the shot blocking and I just saw an "Ibrahimovic" type attempt at goal.
This is only the demo but for me this is the business.
Just played a couple of games, stood up and let up a big "Hmmmm".
I'm not the biggest FIFA fan, but I desperately WANT it to be good.
First game, Chelsea v Chicago, was typical FIFA fare (for me), frustrating passing, midfield scraps and it felt 100% like playing FIFA09.
Second game, my Barca against Marseille and in this game, I saw about 5 new things!
* The skill dribble is now so much more effective. Was doing a slow dribble out of defence, was closed down and did a little skill move which happened without the old lag of 09 and I was past him - very good.
* I barged someone just outside the box, quick free kick layed off and they hit a hard shot from about 30 yards off the post.
* Play got pulled back for a booking. I know it happened on 09, but advantage play is MUCH better
* Passing feels more crisp now, but its the freedom and speed of movement thats got better.
* GK come off their lines instantly if you hold the charge button down - and they dont stop either, much better.
Overall, I still fear it will be a drag playing as lower league teams, but I think this is definitely 'evolution' rather than 'revolution' and its a better game for it.
I'll keep the pre-order now, but will be interested to see how PES plays on the PS3 in comparison.
Keepers seem much better and anything palmed out, there is usually a defender diving in to make a block of any follow up.
Gonna be some amazing goals scored in this game.
I think more than ever with 09, you REALLY have to put PES out of your mind, get the finger off the sprint button and play it like 'real life'.
I think the engine is good enough now to do it. The pace and response of the players even in walking mode is about spot on. I thought it was too slow in 09.
Fifa, it was well behind Pro, but last year it came back and was the best of the two (IMO!)
Wow! That is some funking shiz!
Lol at the fake shot! Pro evo since 2000 I think.
Probably just to show the controls.
Are you a 360 man scutch?
