Try playing a career mode game - it wasn't until then that I started seeing cards and fouls. Might have just been that particular referee too.

Re: FIFA 13 Season Ticket Early Release Impressions

I've mostly played the skill games. Those are fun. I don't really get how hitting the bigger targets is worth more though. You'd think the smaller ones off to the side would be worth more. Well not in the bucket game but the other ones.

Played 2 games and enjoyed them. I've had lots of corners and one yellow card. I scored a spectacular bicycle kick off a corner but I'm not allowed to upload it. Also it doesn't save the camera angle you pick so that's a bit of an issue. That ref seemed rather inconsistant. The AI did a similar thing to what I did to have gotten the yellow and wasn't penalized at all.

Though I will add in that I don't know as much about soccer as other sports so if a rule is buggered up or Gerrard's shoelaces are tied wrong I wouldn't know.

Sorry if this has been asked but if you start career mode now, does your progress carry over when you buy the retail game?? THANKS!

My question is though is the AI aware enough to not attack when down on leg 2 of a game but up overall on aggregate.
Based on my experiment with the Spanish Cup it looks like no to that. I pruposely lost the 1st leg 4-0 and they continued to attack even in the 2nd half after they made the agg. 6-0

Re: FIFA 13 Season Ticket Early Release Impressions

I think I'm starting to come around. I need to play FIFA 12 now and see how it compares. I started with Krebstar's FIFA 12 sliders and tweaked them until I now am really, really enjoying my matches.

The crabwalking thing is still driving me up a WALL and needs to be patched. But other than that things are really starting to come together.

I HAVE to be imagining this but it feels like the game has slowed down some now. Could they patch that without us knowing it? I wouldn't think so.

I'll play FIFA 12 and 13 back to back to see. I'm probably just getting used to the speed now.

But it will have to wait... Gamecocks play football in 6 minutes.

Yes it does.

Re: FIFA 13 Season Ticket Early Release Impressions

Some random musings so far:

The Good:

1. First touch is good - needs a little tweaking, but adds a lot of randomness and player skill difference to FIFA.

2. Career mode seems improved, but tough for me to tell (see #3 below).

The Bad:

1. It's too damn fast. FIFA 12 "Normal" = FIFA 13 "Slow"; FIFA 12 "Fast" = FIFA 13 "Normal". Offline is totally playable on Slow, but online is wayyy too fast on Normal.

2. Fouls are whacked. It's far too easy to pick up a booking for taking a shot on goal, whiffing and nicking an opponent's boot. There are almost none called on the CPU, ever. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS FIXING EA!

3. All of my Career mode saves are corrupted and cause the XBox to freeze when I try to load any. I haven't seen anything else online about this so it must just be my config.

4. Fewer licenses compared to FIFA 12 is an disturbing trend.

5. Still only three subs for friendlies in Career mode.

Mexico was up 1-0 and I couldn't get anything going. When I added a striker and pulled a defender Mexico did nothing to respond.

In fact, their shape never changed. The 2 subs they did make were "like for like". Their play style never changed. They never pulled back to defend. This is sad for me because what they should have done was drop a striker and clog the midfield as well as drop a midfielder between the 2 center backs or replace a midfielder for another center back.
I am convinced we just are not going to see that in Fifa this gen. I think it just the way the game is coded IMO.
