    I am surprised that none of the folk who have played at BC Place have mentioned the nice graphical touch that you can see the CFL yard lines faintly on the pitch.

      Nice.. I was curious about how it would look. Is the lighting different? I believe it is the only closed stadium in the entire game.

      Any new usmnt faces?

        I'm barely seeing any fouls. It's a bit silly really, as I think I've seen one two free kicks in about five games -- none were anywhere near the goal either. No sliders to adjust fouls, so it looks like set pieces won't play much of a role in the game this year. It's too bad because I'm really enjoying the general gameplay.

          Didn't say anything for me. Must be like 2K where you have to be connected online for that sort of thing.

          I was wondering about that. There was stuff that seemed like it should've been called (I'm not really up on the rules of soccer) but the commentator was going on about lenient that particular ref usually is. There was a free kick and an AI player did get yellow carded.

            The lack of fouls is the biggest thing for me right now. EA historically releases one and one patch only in November but it's usually never geared towards gameplay, at all.

            So, I have a feeling we might have to live with it.

              Has anybody else discovered holding down L1 (PS3) while moving with the ball? It's really tight control and is a great addition. I draw a lot of fouls using it

                Unless fifa 13 changes the game drastically, It will be 12 for me for awhile.

                The games really clean and gorgeous looking.

                  More I play this game the more I realize that this is really plays somewhat better with human vs. human and even that is marginally enjoyable for me but even versus other people I notice some weird tackle animations and players flinging themselves, it gives me a good laugh though. I think its a good game for what it is but its not for me. I haven't tried other modes yet but later tonight I will run a career mode with Newcastle United or Feyenoord and see how that is like.

                    My man got tripped in the box and there was no call at all.
                    That's the first horrifically bad one I've seen,I'm talking NHL 12 horrific. Seems rare at least.
                    Playing in the snow is pretty cool.

                    Having fun overall but still not seeing anything particularly great about it. That said I would've had it at a 7 yesterday and it's up to a 7.5 today. Maybe it's one of those more you play it the better it gets deals.

                      Yeah, it kind of sucks right now. The ref seems way too lenient and willing to play the advantage. That said, I feel like this has been a common issue with the series where every other year we default back to the issue with lack of fouls/resultant free kicks. Last year I felt the incidence of both was solid.

                        Love the gameplay and how there are multiple ways to score. You have to work on drawing fouls using L1 or L2... I draw about three a game near the box. Anyone know what is the norm 'should' be?

                          is English commentary not available when playing as RM at the Bernabeau? It aint working for me. Only Spanish works.

                            One beef I have is with the speed on some shots. I will hit a ball that looks like it is trickling towards goal, yet the keeper has to make a last ditch dive to save it. I feel like the speed on rips needs to be increased.

                              I am getting dominated in the air. Most goals I have surrendered have been a result of headers. Playing in the MLS I spent most of my funds improving my backline and they should be the strength of my team.
                              Seems as if every jumpball the AI wins. Am I doing something wrong or what?

                                I am noticing the keepers parry soft shots and even missing them, too.
