    As silly as it is, if the system remains the same, you can build a roster file with the sliders/team tactics from this forum and get to a really fun FIFA experience.

    You shouldn't have to do the work, but it's possible to get a more varied experience.

        Why do the members of the development team who work on gameplay for EA Sports games not care about this? All of their games suffer from this, and it is the reason their games get boring so quickly. These features in CM are nice and will do a good job of immersing you into the game, but then you actually get to playing the games and..........
        ...and this is, every year, what stops me from buying FIFA and sends me to PES. These improvements are awesome, but they are utterly meaningless since all the teams play the same. It is shocking to see the, ignore this year after year. FIFA would be nirvana if all teams played like they do in real life. I am hoping they are working on something and just not telling us.

          I'm hoping they release some info soon about the major improvements to the player growth system they mentioned.

            Just wondering when will fifa ever try to put manager mode online. Also have they said anything about any improvements to pro clubs.

              With ultimate team being so popular online, I bet it would be another couple of years before they thought about implementing something like online manager mode. Although if done correctly, an online manager mode would be an incredible feature.

              Another thing I was wondering about was if they have added any new traits and specialties? It would be nice to even be able to edit traits for all players. Similarly to how you can with your VP.

                I hope it feels different this year. They have added some nice touches to the game, just want that dynamic feel that is missing when playing matches. Sliders help somewhat, but not enough. Definitely looking forward to the PC demo and early release. I always will support PC sports gaming, and make the purchase. Just hope I don't get bored quickly, again.

                The fouls better be fixed!!!

                  It's literally the only aspect of the game that requires major improvement for me to stay interested in the 2013 offering.

                  If it's anywhere near as bad as 2012, I'll pass.

                    Sorry i havent played PES (besides for the demo) but do they portray a clubs play style? Do some teams play more defensive or ball control and others may play more agressive? I'm buying a soccer game for the 1st time in 10+ years and debating between FIFA and PES.

                      I have played both FIFA 12 and PES 12 throughout the past several months and I think PES more accurately portrays team styles. It definitely isn't perfect, but you have more tweaking options than FIFA, in my opinion. There are preset styles you can select for each team. Apart from those, you can also basically customize a style with sliders, similar to FIFA.

                      Playing both demos is your best option. FIFA seems the better overall experience in my own opinion.

                        In your honest opinion...is FIFA 13 worth getting for a casual follower of soccer?

                        I've been reading through the FIFA 12 career thread and I don't know most of who the players are..don't understand the contract offers or trades.

                        I like the game and how it plays. Just wondering if it's too deep for a casual fan of the sport.

                          I actually have a couple friends who knew nothing of the sport, but started playing FIFA and have grown to thoroughly enjoy it.

                              Put it this way, on PES you can tell the computer is actually using a strategy to score. Each team plays very true to their style. The great thing is that PES gives you an awesome game of soccer - ball movement, strategies, great passing and wicked set ups. I have been scored on by the CPU in ways that FIFA has never been able to dream of. In FIFA, every team just brings the ball up and immediately tries to score. There is no strategy in FIFA, no team specific playing style, no thought on the part of the CPU.

                              The first time the CPU scored on me in PES I was blown away by how they set me up. PES is soccer, FIFA is a videogame.

                              That being said. FIFA looks so good. I wish they had team specific play and a deeper soccer experience. Thus far, EA seems content to just focus on looks, glitz, and glamor. Hopefully when the demo comes out, FIFA has changed. The PES demo is awesome.

                              Time will tell.

                                FIFA is great for a casual fan. It is not a deep soccer experience so you won't have to worry about being overwhelmed. When you are ready for a deep soccer experience, PES is the way to go. Although, we will have to see when FIFA 13 comes out.
