Back on for me now too. Doesn't seem like I can connect to EAS FC though (not that I'm particularly worried about that)

No comparison to NHL(which I have) where a penalty a game is the norm. As for the speed, default is a little quick but it is a video game after all and there are options to tune the speed to where you like(I have it on slow 39/47) and it's perfect. I don't mind that EA wants the game to appeal to the masses because in the end it helps promote the sport. As long as I have the option to tune the game to be more lifelike(which the sliders do) I'm good. Personally I can't with until tomorrow(since my stinkin' Season Ticket expired early). Oh well, I guess you can't have it all....

I actually didn't specify properly on the fouls. From my time playing I'm seeing fouls that well aren't even close to fouls. I think it's just the physics system acting weird and it triggers the foul. Otherwise my user fouls are basically done perfectly, I'm just not seeing CPU fouls on me on times where there is no question they should get called for one. It could be me just complaining but that's what I have seen. It's no doubt better than it was in 12 though.

I can see what you're saying with appealing to the masses. I fully agree with that, but for me when I change the sliders and options (BTW I'm using yours and they are very good) I still don't get that great soccer experience I'm looking for. I just don't see the different styles come into play from the different teams. It's still too much attack. There just isn't enough of hat kind of "boring" stuff in soccer. Just my opinion on it. I still think FIFA is a great game and it's great they offer sliders because they are necessary in making this game cater to more sim style players. No doubt a good game but for me PES just seems like the decision for me this year. It's something new where as I've played FIFA for the past 6 years or so, but the past 2 years I played a crap load. I think I'm just FIFA'ed out for right now. Maybe that will change maybe it won't. I'm just happy I have another option for soccer where as I have nothing for hockey games.

I mean what I said, I'm playing the early release right now. It was saying it was unavailable and expired about an hour ago, but now it's back on and I'm playing a friendly against the CPU just fine.

On PS3, if that matters.

# 306 Gnemi @ 09/24/12 11:41 PM

I can't even test to see if it's back up because Sony is down for maintenance. Ugh.

Nope, just been watching this thread and all the complaints about it (especially when someone mentioned a 15 minute customer service wait, that probably means there's a LOT of people pissed about this), and thought EA might have turned it back on so I went back to check. Sure enough...

Also, thelakeshow reported that it was working, which is the main reason I checked when I did.

Nope, I just started the game like usual. I believe the game wasn't working at first because EA Sports servers were down for maintenance from 9pm-11pm EST. Is it still saying EA Sports Ticket Early Release for FIFA has expired for you?

Yes that's right...any ideas??

# 311 philliesphan026 @ 09/24/12 11:51 PM

Ok, as of 10:30pm eastern time it wasn't working for me (after thelakeshow and bcruise both said it worked for them), but I just tried it again and it's back up for me now. Guess they fixed it!

Keep trying if it's not letting you in, you should get in soon enough.

Edit: I should mention, I didn't do anything differently from the time it didn't work to the time it did work. Just logged in and opened up the Early Release and it worked. This is on PS3

Yeah...it's dumb, but that's what I had to do to get my Early release download to work in the first place (on Friday). If you haven't tried it yet, give it a shot.

# 316 orion523 @ 09/25/12 12:29 AM

Mine still isn't working, 360 version.

# 317 Moses Shuttlesworth @ 09/25/12 12:30 AM

Baffled as to why this is released at midnight pacific time rather than ET...

What do you mean? It's going to be released in 30 minutes. I just saw a tweet a few minutes ago.
