FIFA 13 Season Ticket Early Release Impressions

[Altimus]

Ok... I am impressed. Backline defending is still suspect at times but... something has happened we have never seen in a FIFA game until now. First game I start up against Stoke with Chelsea. 9 minute halves, Legendary, and slow. All game long Stoke play the long ball. Tons of crosses in the box and just a whole lot of long balls. I almost didn't believe what I was seeing. I was up 1-0 and in the 70th minute Stoke start pressing like there's no tomorrow. I never adjusted and in the 90th minute paid the price and game ends 1-1. You never seen that kind of pressure on the ball before by the AI. It grabbed me by surprise and I paid the price.

On to playing more but seeing Stoke all game just play the long ball and defend up until the end was just amazing.

One touch football is indeed fantastic and was a little hard to see in the demo but watching it here it truly is a game changer.

On to playing more.

This is the first game I've played in a long time after playing the demo in which I could tell there was a noticeable difference. I was forcing myself to like the demo whereas I really enjoyed the two full games I have played thus far.

There seems to be a more organic experience from the demo, plays slower, and I have had some exciting scorinig chances. The demo was more of a fit of frustration.

Presentation and atmosphere is top notch. Love the ESPN integration.

Finally got the game up doing an Arsenal vs Stoke match. I must say this the pre game presentation is great best I have seen in any footy game. I will be back with more after I string together a few games.

Would anyone be able to do a huge favor and post the list of 4 star and 4.5 star teams in FIFA 13?

Would be greatly appreciated!!

How do you create your virtual pro and play pro ranked matches? I don't see it anywhere in the menus.

Good game. Teams play different. AI shows great situation awareness. When the game is coming to an end and they need to score or they need to stop you from scoring to tie them, they hammer down pretty hard. Commentary is very good as well. I like how they tell the back story of clubs and club owners, but yet still focus on the game at hand while they are talking about the back story.

218 minutes left, taking a long time. Must be a ton of people downloading. Looking forward to seeing what has changed from the demo to the retail version. Going to get some games in and then will post what I think about it.

Love the game so far but I was under the impression it had a connected careers (online dynasty with friends) like Madden.

Am I missing it? I want to do a EPL with two buddies.
