I love this shite so far

The off the ball runs are like..... Realistic!!!!!

But I had some nasty benders from the edges of the box with podolski last night... Don't get your hopes up too much

One more dumb question:

Can I just go to a store and pick it up on the 25th or will I need it pre-ordered?

I have heard only positive reviews so far, so that is awesome. Also, players you are not controlling go for loose balls, which is fricking awesome. This should be sick.

The fact that my players go after the rebound following a shot makes me very, very happy.

Tried a shot with Reus, gets slapped away. Lewandowski comes flying in, I get quick control of him for a diving header.

Maybe its just because I'm playing on a forgein TV or something, but I feel like 13 plays so much more slowly than 12. My dudes feel slower and the overall game tempo seems slower

eta: This is the only complaint I can find so far

That's one of my favorite upgrades about it. Everything is so much more smooth and it's not all about high paced bullshite.

You should be able to pick it up, depending on where you live

That isn't a complaint in my book. Much more realistic.

Oh, I absolutely agree that it's smoother. Which is great. But I guess I just like the fast-paced gameplay much much better. Not just in FIFA, but in NCAA, Madden, NBA etc. Maybe it's just my style of play

Set your game speed to Fast, then.

I put it on slow and it's perfect.

The 12 demo played much slower than the finished product IIRC.

oh it does. it's really, really hard to get a fast counter going unless you have like goetze or silva dribbling

the computer is a super pro at snatching through balls on runs, while your defenders are retards half the time

computer defenders slide and block shots all over

on offense i've found that you absolutely must play wide, and sending the ball back for a shot right outside the box is best. it's hard to dribble by people, even with a tevez or reus

the computer and i typically pass around 90%. the game is built for possession soccer for sure.

yeah it seems that guys on breakaways lose balls a lot more easily, so ronaldo shouldn't be as much as a pain in your arse

Apparently I got a glitched version of the demo because Arsenal still had RVP in mine

Playing against him on World Class fricking sucked.

Isn't he only rated like 81 too?

The computer hasn't changed much since 12, though... They still do whatever they want when they want

Yeah. When the full game comes out, I'll start working on some sliders.
