FIFA 12 Demo Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3, PC)

[rangerrick012]

After playing some more, this game is just TOO DAMN FAST! Even on slow. 3 min halfs don't help I'm sure, but it's still too fast and the AI just attacks, attacks, attacks without abandon and has perfect passing, which makes things even harder on D. I just can't get into the new D controls. I'm sure this will still be fun to play w/ friends, but I'm gonna be in wait and see mode and see if the guys here can come up w/ some sliders to balance things out.

I played a little of FIFA 11 last year but basically yes. For example I don't even know what button Y (through the ball) for the XBox 360 does.

Shadows, it's not a matter of your rig, but for fraps pertaining to some games you have to at least drop the resolution, and/or the AA/AF settings for your vid card.

To me it's always safe to just drop the resolution a bit.

I've seen many of your videos, and they are good quality - but some are quite choppy. Hursty had this issue as well till he changed up resolutions with fraps.

Of course, if FRAPS continues to give you issues - download bandicam, it's the same except you can choose your export filetype, and apparently is getting better reviews than FRAPS.

Sorry for getting off topic - just thought I'd say something because you post videos quite a bit, Shadows - and they are always awesome, just thought I'd help.

The game looks beautiful & the new defensive controls add another layer to the already impressive gameplay.
Is it a must buy? I'm 50/50. It feels better than FIFA 11 but not by a whole bunch. How much EA have done to Game Modes will likely be the determining factor as to whether it is worth paying for the new game.

The first few games I experienced that the CPU had lots of possession and more shots on goal that I did, but after I got the hang of tactical defending and the new ball control I've had games where I had 57-58% possession - especially when using Barcelona.

I've had a harder time scoring and let in more goals than I normally have in FIFA 11, but it's all for the better IMO.

When they said they were going to make defense more difficult they weren't kidding. Played about 15 games tonight and won 1 and the funny thing is I didn't feel cheated at all.

I downloaded this and PES tonight and I must say I enjoyed FIFA a whole lot more.

Well... As usual Ea is hyping everything up but at the end its not that special.... I'm getting it tho...
