Here are the results for an Aston Villa simmed season for loaned players:

Season 1

Out for Loan:

Gardner 64
Weimann 67
Clark 75
Albrighton 75
Delph 73
Bannan 73
Delfouneso 73


End of Season:

Gardner 65 (+1)
Weimann 67 (0)
Clark 77 (+2)
Albrighton 76 (+1)
Delph 74 (+1)
Bannan 74 (+1)
Delfouneso 74 (+1)


I'd say that's pretty conclusive that loans are working for player growth. Let me know if people want more info, but I'm pleased. Not sure there is a need to do another season, but I might later this weekend.

Still kinda weak I was getting similar progression pre patch. This is more consistent among all loaned players. Was hoping to see some players with higher growth.

For what it's worth, I haven't had any crashes today, nor have I seen the odd issue of "no replays available" other than that one time. I played 6 matches today in my career mode.

Hey NaturalSelected, i've got the same progress pre patch.

I'm playing as Sporting CP, and i've noticed that youth players get up to 3 OVR points at the end of the season even if they don't go to the pitch. I found a CB (Simone Benedetti) that got OVR +20 in 7 years (he's OVR 85 right now, i'm in 2017 and bought him last season, when he was an OVR 84 player).

I don't have the patch yet, but, if someone could help me, it would be great. I'm having a problem during player vs. cpu games. During exhibiton matches, if the cpu team make a sub, the game freezes during the cutscene. Could anyone helpe me?

Thanks guys!

So much for the game being easier since patch. I must have been riding a mid season high with so many players in great form.

I've been a FIFA fan for many years. When they rebuilt the game like 6 years ago I was on board & saw them completely pass Konami's PES as they stood still. But FIFA 12 is a disaster, and I have no idea how this game got so many raving reviews when the game is severely flawed out of the box. It's virtually unplayable online due to the lagging & freezing issues most of the time. I'm yet to get a clean game in. Ranging from the UT to a club match. Not to mention other issues. Career Mode is still flawed, the VP is flawed. I don't understand. The game freezes me out constantly to the point where I give up playing it all the time prematurely.

If it wasn't for PES I wouldn't know what to do about getting my football fix.

Although there are people that have similar issues, you may want to check out your Internet and Router settings. This can have a big effect on lag/freezing/etc. For what it's worth, I've had 3 console freezes in 300+ UT games.
