    Re: FIFA 13 Season Ticket Early Release Impressions

    the ball is too bouncy. Almost all the short passes are like that. I do like a few small touches they added like the silver MLS championship ball. Also the crowd reacts more appropriately. I had scored a goal and the crowd went crazy but then the offside flag came up and the crowd let out an "awwww"

    My first game on legendary where I won 4-0 was probably a freak thing. My games after that played out much better

      Re: FIFA 13 Season Ticket Early Release Impressions

      I am reading these impressions with serious focus. I want to get this game. However, I want to feel challenged by different ways by different teams. I want to see and feel that the other team is being strategic, passing the ball around, and actually playing with purpose apinstead of simply rushing the ball into the box, then trying to score from in there.

      I also want defenders that don't just gaze at the ball when I am on defense and simply escort players into the nap box to watch them score.

      I want this game so bad but I am both encouraged and worried about what I am reading from these impressions.

      Any additional insight would be greatly welcomed. Thanks for all the impressions thus far.
      When the game is on the line, winners want the ball.

          defense is extremely disappointing. Especially in the box. A lot of ball watching and too much space.

            Played a bit, and gotta say the game speed seems faster than what it was on the demo, and I set it to slow. It feels like every player is on a sugar rush from hell.

            The AI is improving, that's for sure. Different from last years game. Seeing a bit more variety from the AI.

            AI Defense is better then what was showcased in the demo as well. Still needs to be worked on though.

            I don't know, I'm having a tough time really describing this game. The speed of it is way too fast. The speed in FIFA 12 was better, not sure what happened here.

            As Zoneblitz mentioned...defenders...but I won't get on it as I always do.

              Ive been going through the menu for 37 minutes and can't find a way to play a simple exhibition match!

              What am I missing here?

              8 more minutes of NOT finding how to start an exhibition game!!!!!!!

                  Agreed. It's horrible.

                    Thank you. I'll check there next. I actually started a custom tourney just to play the game

                    Every choice seemed to be online and I'm strictlyan offline player

                      Sliders are important. I think the "stock" game doenst feel that great but tweaking the sliders helps a lot to improve gameplay in my opinion.

                        Using Mau U, hosting Mexico

                        Played 39 minutes of the first half and paused to say a few quick things:

                        -Slow is still a bit fast for me. Wish there was a very slow like in Madden

                        -Mexico has fouled me 3 times from behind. First 2 were simple free kick re-starts but the 3rd cost them a yellow card. Great to see the cpu fouling me

                        -Conversely, and sadly, I cannot foul the cpu no matter what I do, not even slide tackling from behind. i believe this was in last years game as well.

                        -The game is visually stunning

                        Now that Royce showed me where I can start an exhibition game, I'm going to host the Netherlands to see if they will shoot from distance against me. Last year, for the most part, they did not.

                        I also want to see if the CPU changes formation based on score. If I'm up 2 goals late will they drop a defender for a 3rd striker? Last year the cpu did not do that.

                        I am a PES guy and have always bought PES but, like last year, am using Season Ticket to determine if I would buy FIFA. I won't buy both games.

                          Question for those who have the game. How do you get the ESPN graphics and intro? Is it default when you pick a regular exhibition game? From the MLS video's I've seen on youtube, they all start with the EA Sports intro and graphics but the La Liga video Ive seen has the ESPN graphics.

                            KG,

                            Juve did play 3-5-2. There still is not enough midfield play IMO and I think that is because when the CPU gets the ball they are still very direct in their approach. I would not say Pirlo dictated the pace but that could be because I was up 2-0 at HT. I will say those I feel his pressence was felt with his passing. Also, Juve definetly came out attacking in the 2nd half trailing 2-0 which was good to see. I want to see what happens if a team is winning though because in the past they still attacked.

                              Attacking is one thing. Changing formation is another. Do you remember if they dropped a defender and added a striker? Did the formation shape change? Were players pushed up at every position?

                              I'm hoping to see this

                                I can say they didn't attack when up.
                                My question is though is the AI aware enough to not attack when down on leg 2 of a game but up overall on aggregate.
