No way, 13 is so far improved from 11 in manager mode it's not even funny. Gameplay can be hit or miss but all the outside factors (requesting additional transfer funds to target that must get player, Int'l manager duty, counter offers for transfers, able to send players as part of a transfer offer) make 13 better than 12 and 11

I started the player career and its sweet.
Anybody know how to improve my game rating? It's basically like if I score I get a rating in the low 7's; if I don't I'm in the 5's. sometimes I'm doing nothing right or wrong, balls on the other side of the field and my ratings randomly goes down

Score goals

No but seriously, if you aren't involved it's going to be lower. What position do you play?

Fwiw, ratings seem to be generally lower in 13, I had a MotM in manager mode with a rating of 7.8, they are usually in the low 8s or above in 12

If you are just controlling your VP, hold LB to stay in position when you aren't directly involved in the play.

Was going back and forth between midfielder and forward. Finally settled on center forward (I like to score haha)
Holding LB is a good tip, I do get over aggressive trying to get the ball sometimes

Agreed. I LOVE this shite. Other than the Kun requesting a transfer 5 days before the window closed ...I've been pleased.

, I guess he really wants out of MC then? He requested a transfer in my game as well, but it was in mid-July. I didn't have any funds left or I would have tried to get him

I turned him and Tevez into Ronaldo and Gomez

Actually scratch that. I got Ronaldo then my game crashed. Couldn't get him at the same price when I rebooted so I went with Gomez and Benzema.

Very nice, I sent out transfer requests for Sturridge and Walcott, thinking someone would turn me down. Got acceptance emails from both clubs on the same day, decided to sign both of them

How do you play head to head seasons online in this game. That's all I ever played in 12. Just got 13 and don't see it in the Xbox live menu selections. Did they take this game mode out or am I just over looking it?

H2H Seasons got "rebranded" as seasons for 13. It's still there, best change is your starting xi is saved now, don't have to make changes every match

I had an amazing season in Season 1. Won the treble simulating sparingly, now I cant advance to the next season w/o it freezing...
