Amazing gameplay improvements across the board for the fans of sim style football.

Can't wait to get home and play this again. I will be starting my women's tournament tonight, then I will be also possibly starting my Sheffield Wednesday manager mode today. So excited.

The changes EA made to the physics alone in this game are remarkable. I left home this morning just gushing with joy after playing a single game in my brand new career mode.

On that note: it's so awesome to choose a club with historic kits. I'm going to run with Everton this year and they have TWO historic kits. What does that mean for me, as a PC dude? I get to create four custom kits! WOO!!!!!

The Women's tournaments are amazing! I just wish I could set the group stage to where everyone played each other twice before knockout, it may be possible and I am just too blonde to figure it out... But this is not a big thing and they are so fun.. I have two going.

One as England as Jordan Nobbs is pretty much my hero in the world of sports. And I took Sweden just for kicks as they have players who seem to fit well in the formation I like, plus I kinda did not know the squad which makes for a cool discovery. Eventually I will complete a tournament with each team. Though winning it with some may be not possible for me. USA and Germany are pretty hard to stay with. In my Sweden tourny I drew Germany 0-0 by just keeping them off the ball. I had only three shots the whole game.

MM I decided to take Burnley and attempt to someday see the BPL again. Their kits pleased me and I like that they have a stadium in the game. The preseason summer tourney is a way cool thing. I liked that I could sub a lot and try things and made a little cash also.

I always liked Wednesday maybe will eventually do a MM with them. I also want to do AC Milan and see if I can win Euro eventually. Then maybe do a Velencia and try and topple the powers that be in Spain. Though I need to do a Bundesliga MM also.... HAHA I need more gaming hours in a day.

Totally! The physics and where the CPU shoots from and how is awesome.. I have conceeded goals and replayed them because they are so life like. It is no shocker when watching a goal I scored over and over but you know the game is good when I am watching one the CPU scored and not to complain it was impossible but just to see it again.

First time ever I do not feel cheated in a FIFA game when I loose.

This does change depending who you play. But you see long crosses from mid field flying in for forwards. You see players shoot from wide and for me a lot of out side the box shots. I tend to drop back to prevent someone getting behind me and they shoot from outside a lot! In my opinion the shooting issue from the demo is also gone. I have not seen finesse shots unless I used the R1. Literally the best football game ever made. I love PES and am not a FIFA fangirl. This game is purely wonderful. Not perfect... but very good football.

I have only been playing the demo as I'm getting the game tomorrow. The game plays great but I'm worried about the AI shooting. I have been playing. Top Player level against Madrid, Man City and ,Dortmund (I was either of these teams playing against them) and it seems they don't shoot much or attack the goal until there is like 15 minutes left then score then. They get it the final third them muck around with it then I eventually tackle them (no shots outside the box). Did anyone else experience this and please tell me it's fixed in the retail version. I did play against Barca who attacked and shot lots so that was good to see.
Cheers

Still haven't tried the Women's tourney, I plan to give it a go this weekend. I haven't even checked out the teams but I am curious to see what reserves they used to replace the so called ineligible players on the Canadian national team.

My experience is they shoot early and often from anywhere. And most the goals I have conceeded are from outside the box.

I kinda feel the short half lengths in the demo made the teams hold and wait for a shot at the end of the game. But regardless why, Iam not seeing this happen in the game. Though for a first time teams do play more life like and aome teams do play possesion style football. But they shoot more than a couple times a game. Unless others are just way better than me at defense.
