The implementation of individual instruction for each player on the pitch is a great addition. And something one really must use to get the most out of the game. My first impression when I tried out the demo, I was completely frustrated and thought my CPU teammates were brain-dead .... Then I discovered the individual instruction option in Team Management (and also implemented a team tactic for 'possession' futbol, from my own personal preference) and the game transformed! My teammates were cutting off passing lanes, giving me support on D, and players were making the right runs for through-ball attempts, etc .... And of course, the authentic EPL presentation, 'emotion' engine (btw - EA has done a phenomenal job with this emotion engine that we have seen here in FIFA and Madden. Fingers crossed for NBA LIVE - BUT I digress. LOL!), and I feel like the 'Pro' level is where its at in regards to players on the pitch performing to their ratings. The CPU is more aggressive, but of course, I feel that play build up could be improved & of course more 'Player ID' ... But overall, I'm super impressed with this iteration of FIFA (based on the demo). Definitely a first-day purchase for me!
