Divisions 3-1 are some amazing human on human football, completely changed how i viewed online games. Not bashing or hating, just sharing a different view point. If only EA put as much work into Madden, NBA or NCAA football. FIFA again is the sports video game of the year

Cheers, my post wasn't meant as a slam either. I am also quite bad at this game, so that has a lot to do with how I feel. It may change, because I did play one game as Juventus against another guy who had Barca and it was quite competitive!

Thanks man i'll try this because that is the one thing that frustrates me the most in this game

I play often online and I only take 4 stars or less.

Playing against 5 stars might be boring someitme

Have you played Fifa 13 multiplayer yet?

Because I loved Fifa 12's MP too. Got to the 6th division (I got Fifa 12 late).

But this game plays a different game of football. The counter-attacks are really brutal because of the increased speed. Hard to explain. You will notice it when you penetrate deeply into your opponent's pitch, lose the ball, and suddenly find yourself struggling to keep up with Ronaldo - even when you have men in front of him.

Game is great! I have seen more cards in 5 games than I did in all of 12..love it.

# 66 Broncos86 @ 09/26/12 04:58 PM

I love that I just got a "top story" about how one of my transfers ended up paying off.

Loving the gameplay and it's nice to see the sliders work and that you can see some unique styles of play from different teams.

I have just played 2 games in CM and have a dumb question:
When and where do you get those "match roundups of other games played" that I've heard are so cool? I started a CM with Madrid and have only played the last friendly and 1st Super Copa game vs. Barca and I haven't seen any of these between matches. Maybe I"m not deep enough into the season? Let me know if I'm missing something...

When you get ready to start a match and you go to the screen where it offers play, team management, etc. look on the bottom. It should say Goal News. Click on that and it offers you a list of games being played and you check the ones you want to hear about. You get goal updates, penalties being taken, etc. It is really cool. A lot of the commentary is generic for smaller squads. It'll just say "goal for the home team." It makes for nice background chatter to add atmosphere.

Okay, I didn't know they added "request additional funds" in the management screen. Would've really helped during the first transfer window.....

Yes. I have done that exclusively so far as I've used h2h matches as my primary means of acquiring FCC for the store!

It's pretty fast, still, because it's "Slow" but on default sliders. Nonetheless, it beats the crap out of so-called Normal.

Yeah, I didn't click it yet either and I should have because the Cardiff City board seems to think I should be winning the league so what could it hurt to ask for more dough!

# 72 Alistair @ 09/26/12 10:22 PM

Like Madden, replays are garbage. What's the point of a 10 second upload unless it's a set piece? I want to see the rewarding build-up to a goal. Not just the ball bulging the net.

# 73 Perceptor @ 09/27/12 12:15 AM

Hey anyone want to add me to their PSN friends list for some UT or online matches?

On a similar token, I had a bench player request playing time from me yesterday and because I was playing some ****ty team in the League Cup I gave him the playing time he requested.

I scored twice in that game with him and afterwords I got a "Top Story" that was an interview with that player filled with comment after comment of the player praising me for giving him a chance. It was awesome.

Then it was back to Premier League action and even though he requested to play again there's no way I was benching Dimitar Berbatov for him. It was like a 20 point difference in OVR between that guy and Berbatov.

That wasn't the first one either, and they've gone both against me and for me, I'm just finding it weird.

I had 2 tonight. I watched them in slow mo and one pk was from running in front of a player with the ball. The other was a slight bump. Def an issue here.

# 76 streamline @ 09/27/12 03:06 AM

anyone else having trouble finding an online game? I'm in season mode and it takes forever to find a game. Occassionally, when I find a game andi m in the arena it'll just keep me in the arena. Didn't have this many problems at launch with FIFA 12. When I can get a game I love it!

# 77 ~LiverpoolRed~ @ 09/27/12 09:21 AM

I downloaded a roster update last night. Michael Owen appeared on Stoke. Not sure what else was altered.

# 78 kerosene31 @ 09/27/12 11:12 AM

I'm definitely seeing some questionable calls, but I'll gladly take that over last year.

I must admit this game plays really well with a few slider tweaks. I bumped up the pass error for both human and cpu and the man marking for both and had a great game. Lots of back and forth at midfield and very few scoring chances. I was playing MLS teams and the difference from playing in the EPL is very noticeable and feels really great. You can't just one touch pass the ball around with an MLS team like you can with an elite team in a top division. With 10 minute halves I had no shots on target and one scoring chance with a header that missed (was well covered).

Going to pick my copy up at midnight release tonight when I finish work. Reading some of the posts here I can't wait to get stuck in.

# 80 Broncos86 @ 09/27/12 12:38 PM

I finished my first season, and I was impressed with player progress. Very dynamic in general. Keeping players rotated is key.
