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.

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.
