FIFA 2011

only way to stop it is to stop playing randoms! Should make a list of gamertags of people on here...


I think they will never fix the problem when you press head to head then you wait a bit and it just says 'session no longer available'

 

[BRUN]

im finding the game a bit better than the demo, or im getting better, still not had much chance to play yet

 

[Ads_172]

I've found 'professional' a bit easy to be honest, beat United 3-0 in the FA Cup with Spurs and I find most AI players just run into you most of the time.

Will try World Class today so hopefully the AI actually passes the ball around.

Am yet to score a properly good goal though...

 

[Jordi17]

Whats AI mean?

Also regarding the goals, how do you score crackers? only great goal i've scored is a Tiote great strike hit post and went in

 

[Revels]

Played 6, won 5 on live last night.

Nobody picked Chelsea/Barca either which was a miracle.

Big improvement, I really like it.

Artificial Intelligence. Just the computer controlled opposition.

No idea on the quality goals front yet, barely hit the target from outside the area!

 

[BRUN]

i dont even know all the controls to be honest, but then again i never did for Fifa 09 either and i played a lot on that, just got the basic controls and went with it lol

i ordered on hmv and it was shipped on tuesday, still no sign of my fifa 11. feck

still no sign this morning. how shite would of been cheaper to buy it from a supermarket too, pre ordered so i wouldnt have any truoble queing or it been sold out, f**king stupid.

hope your all enjoying it though

Whilst in the arena, just holding LT and doing loads of random movements with the right stick heralds some awesome skills! LOL. Now I just need to work out how I did each one and use them in game.

 

[FlameR]

I like it!!

It's far more frustrating to play than 10, but that's because it's more realistic and harder.

You can't just skip past all their defence.

Started a prem tournament and won the first 4 game, but they were all easy games like West Brom and Birmingham.

Pens are f**king solid. How the hell do you just place one to the left or right? He skies them every time for me

Theres a guide on youtube, have a look.

Hmm, online game has been "paused, waiting for opponent" for 5 minutes now. A bit glitchy...

 

[Benson]

Scored my first decent goal this morning, an absolute missile from Ribery - it's taken me long enough!

 

[z8jay]

My mate bought his copy round last night and we played a few games. It's soooo much better than FIFA 10. Love it.

+1, play.com have fooked me over this time!

Pre ordered and everything, what a joke. I was going to nip down to Asda, they have some left, but I may aswell wait, i'm working all afternoon/evening.
Nevermind, got F1 to play

Career mode freezing is back. Mines froze in april

 

[Jordi17]

Also on career mode, why does it show a calender and keep crossing off boxes, then says NO GAME etc. whats this all about ?

 

[tonksy26]

I like the whole run into another team mate to do a celebration with them, good little touch

 

[DAVE_RSi]

Clubs still isn't working, EA are onto it apparently! Probably me fav part of the game so hopefully they can get it going

 

[iain187]

when you change formation, it puts players in the right positions instead of having to arrange them all yourself.... woooohoooooo

 

[Scutch]

Yeah EA are sorting Clubs. Should be a patch out soon.

 

[Barron]

Adam Johnson is amazing this year, although his rating is low hes such a good winger on this.

 

[RDH]

For anyone who is playing career, it seems as though the game will freeze on March 30th or aorund that time.

Description in that thread and also what to do if or when you encounter it.

 

[Jordi17]

SO what do you have to do then?

 

[Scutch]

SO what do you have to do then?

It's in the thread.

Guys, that's the March-bug.

Just skip on the calender until the day after the problematic match.

You'll be fine then.

I'm loving this game one minute then hating it the next. lol. beat some guy 4-0 on live, he asked for a rematch then beat me 3-1 surprise surprise he was Spain...

 

[Paul.]

ea servers down for anyone else?

 

[Ben]

Yeah down for me too.

 

[Scutch]

Yeah I think they're updating stuff.

 

[mace¬]

Can anyone give me any tips for defending I just seem to run past them or something? Am I doing something wrong or am I just s**t and there is no hope.

 

[Paul.]

any idea wen theyre back up?

I always make sure I switch to the right player to control to defend depending on which player is attacking (don't just control, say, Evra all the way across the pitch to track a player.

Stand off the player you want to tackle, don't jump in, and then, when space is running out, use the standing tackle button (as well as calling a teammate to help) to nick the ball away. Then don't piss about with it if you don't need to, players who aren't great at passing will just give it away if you try to ping it about out of defence.

Updates on stuff there, they're trying to fix clubs so servers keep going off!

Just managed to get in one club game with a few mates.... was quality, the game messed up and put me on the other team in error!!! I just kept taking out their own players and then scored an own goal so my own club won

 

[Barron]

Won 7 Lost 2 online so far. 2 i lost were with Newcastle so i gave up using them

 

[Curley]

What's everyone doing on career mode? Player, manager or both?

 

[Waitey]

Anyone else turned hand balls on. I get at least one penalty a game now!

 

[Curley]

I have now.. Always wondered why handball wasn't an option on FIFA

 

[Ads_172]

I've quickly realised why handballs aren't on as standard - horrific option! Turned it back off after one game and three penalties as well as about 4 free kicks for it.

The only thing that gets me about this game is how AI players on your own team do not chase a loose ball. sometime's there's a loose ball a few paces away from them and they just seem to watch it, by the time you've switched to the player and tried to retrieve it yourself it's normally too late. Same goes for rebounds, they just seem to watch the rebound come out.
