New FIFA Soccer 11 Details - Pro Passing, Improved AI, Custom Audio & More

[Steve_OS]

CVG has uncovered some new details on FIFA Soccer 11, which included 'Pro passing', improved AI, customizable audio and more.

Quote:

"FIFA 11 adds swerve passes, driven lobs, fancy flicks and through-balls with backspin. Player AI is said to have improved "massively" though perversely, responding to criticism over 10's super-human stoppers, goalkeepers are now less intelligent. The coolest improvement though, says Zoo, is 'player personality', which means that the world's best footy players now play just as you'd expect them to. Each player now has a defensive and attacking work rate setting, so Wayne Rooney for example runs around at 100mph hassling defenders, while Dani Alives will charge forward but might be a little slow getting back to defend. Players are also now able to pull off their own moves depending on personality, so Carlos Tevez is full of little flicks, while Didier Drogba will use his strength to roll defenders."

Player AI is said to have improved "massively" though perversely, responding to criticism over 10's super-human stoppers, goalkeepers are now less intelligent....... YES...... Lets make this happen.

"player personality"

It's about time.

I wanted Fifa 10 - Didn't get it. I REALLY wanted World Cup - Didn't get. I think it's time to stop BSing and pull the trigger on this Fifa. I always enjoy the demos but don't buy the game. I last had Fifa for the Genesis. In the immortal words of Rakim, "It's been a long time...."

I find this very worrying. Find it rather easy to score on FIFA, and this will NOT help.

I really hope they overhaul the manager mode. It has been the same since 08.

Great game, but needs to offer more customization to its user, and not in the form of costly downloadable content.

-You can't customize any of the players. I'd like to see 2k style player customization down the brand of boots and sock length.
-You can't watch an CPU vs CPU match.
-There is no multiple game simulation option in manager mode which can be massively inconvenient at times.

I would like to see more depth added to the "staple" modes in their game. I don't think thats much to ask for along side a few minor gameplay tweaks.

I have high hopes for FIFA 11. I don't think I will be disappointed, I hope.

Very good news indeed. I like the personality idea. I'm pretty ecstatic for 11.
