Just bought it, played 2 games offline, 2 on. I notice Gaz has it as well. So far I like it, the players are much smarter, interchange positions more naturally, etc. The dribbling and passing feels a bit hard to control, that happens every year because you are used to the old ones.

I made sure to beat Gaz's online score to assert my dominance.

Yes, it's definitely harder...but Tits tells me that the comments I'm telling her about 11 are verbatim what I said about 10 the first time I played it.

Harder means that a lot of bullshit is stripped. This hinders me because I depended on bullshit (like randomly hitting X to pass and knowing it will find one of my other players regardless of the passer's positioning/momentum/footing). I will now need to actually learn how to play as intended :-/

My copy is pre-ordered. I don't understand how the US can get this game before the UK.

Just beat Gaz 5-3 in an overtime thriller. I was CSKA Moscow, he was West Ham. Two of the most infamous set of hooligan fans.

The game wasn't as near as the scoreline insinuates. One of my goals was a bs stolen goalkick type thing (that I refused to accept so beebs OG'd himself).

It was a duel of gentlemanly behavior.

To be fair though, I don't think either of us have used the teams we used in the game, so it took a while to get a feel for gameplans.

Have cracked the top 20,000 in the world, somewhere around 19,500.

Not sure if I am proud or ashamed.

Ashamed that you aren't in the top 10,000.

Beebs · 01-14-2011, 11:29 PM

somewhere around 15k now.

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 01-15-2011, 01:21 AM

I'm not really that impressed at the moment. You might as well be ranked .9 millionth for all I care. Call us back when you break top 100, anything else is the rest of the crowd.

I know you guys love your soccer, but EA has done amazing things with their NHL franchise. I have had the last 2 games, and I'm just touching the EASHL which is online league play that reups every month. You make your club etc. It's pretty sweet.

Agree, I have the NHL11 demo and play it a decent amount, my brother in law has the full game, it was damn good. I'm considering buying it, although how long until 12 comes out?

Also, I fell to 18k something on FIFA due to 2 bad loses.

Beebs, using as equivalent of teams as you could, what %age chance would you have of beating the guy ranked #1,000? #100? #1?

Don't know really, I don't have much experience because the ranking only starts at 20k, so that is why I referenced it. I don't know at what point it starts, but after a certain level the game becomes completely different and not fun, all about exploiting the game basically, playing entirely unrealistically. I don't know where that point is, but top 100 would def be included in the group that sort of just breaks the game down into just a collection of tasks done to edge percentage points towards winning, top 1000 might look more like actually playing a soccer video game.

I imagine I could draw or beat the top 1000 guy 3-4 times out of 10 if I went totally gimmicky with crazy formations and strategies; maybe 1 or 2 with my normal style of play.

Beebs · 02-24-2011, 01:48 AM

The winter update with all the transfers came out today, it also changed some players stats and some teams default formations to better reflect reality.

DJ FC · 02-24-2011, 02:27 AM

Did they make Gareth Bale God?

Normally, NHL comes out the Month after Madden, so around Aug. I started league play to late, and my player is awful compared to the other players around me. I'm going to pre order NHL 2012, that way I get an automatic player pack, plus put 2000 Microsoft points towards my player so I can get a head up on some of the other players.

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
