Fifa 12 - What should EA do to make this game any better than it already is?

[TimWesty]

What the title says. What do you reckon EA needs r should do to Fifa 12 in order to be a more successful game to Fifa 11? :P

[Willvtr]

actual chants for big named players.
a better career mode as its poor
virutal pro wit your mates career mode
harder difficulties
better pinging of the ball
more techniques
when ediditing a player you should be able to choose what tekkers hell use
the ability to dive
a better online setup... ie torniesss
ultimate team needs alot of work.

they could probably make the best of the best fifa game ever right now, but they wont, as if they done that this year for Fifa 12, then every other fifa onwards would be exactly the same! - no-one would buy it!

they'll keep improving little bits year after year until no-one plays it/the world ends

agree, its more them making money, than them making a one off awesome game, they just think of the future and not right now.

[TimWesty]

Yeaah true!

[TimWesty]

The Demo comes out tomorrow, you reckon it will be midnight tonight? I'm bloody hoping so! :P

[0rang3peel]

I can't wait.

It would be nice to be able to actually beat people, with a bit of skill. I beat people all the time but getting passed for example vidic with someone like ben arfa at current is practically impossible

[0rang3peel]

does anyone know if the demo is available to download?

[squaddie]

Career mode better simple

[Ryyy]

The vision & execution of the passing like on PES.

You can just 'ping' a pass through a defence, and set someone off on a run, kinda like how Barcelona/Arsenal etc play, long/short/medium range through balls etc.

How many times on FIFA11 do you try and release another player on a run with a long through ball for that pass to hit your opponent(s). Try that on PES, and it looks good.

+ on Pro Evo the facial expressions/facial similarities etc are fantastic, even players from smaller clubs (where FIFA doesn't pay enough attention to).

Other improvements could be;

UEFA Licences ('nuff said!)
Career Mode more in-depth (Just to bland & to many bugs.)
Bigger range of difficulties/camera angles/play speed etc
&&& Attributes..You're playing a semi-pro game, you are, Neymar (whos very quick) running up against Mertesacker (not quick) you get past him..play that same scenario on World Class and he catches you somehow..so attributes mean nothing.

[TimWesty]

I got it wrong :( It comes out tomorrow! :'( (13th September)

[MickyWelsh172]

Biggest pile of shite about Fifa 11 was the online mode, too many pussies bailing out when losing, and you dont get the win! And Online Pro was hacked to fuck, lag absolutely ruined the whole concept of it! Whoever got host, won. Simple

[GolfJay]

End the series!

I couldn't disagree more, I think the passing is pretty good certainly better than pro evo where you can take it around everyone with one player, at least you have to build on your goals, I think FIFA's graphics are superior aswel tbh.


It would be nice if they fixed a few things, a few things that annoy me are...


that retarded situation you are often in when you/they do a lobbed through ball and your player taps it down nicely for them to go straight through and score beating the defender.

when the keeper instantly grabs the ball from your feet

when the keeper punches it out and it NEVER goes to your player, same with when they clear a corner.

scoring from crosses and it completely glitches out the game

make the trick system less retarded

punish online quitters

[Gabbastard]

Online team games were amazing in Fifa 09; pick a team, pick the position you want to play and thats who you are, e.g. Pick CAM for Chelsea, you go Lampard.

The team game with the be a pro thing is piss. If you and your mate want a game, you have two half decent players in the team (the two Pro's), and the rest of the team are overall 50 ability halfwits. If you play against a team with more be a pro/human players, youll get fucked. Especially when one or more of them is a 5'6 attacker with a grey afro, who you cant keep up with in a sprint OR muscle off the ball.

If they insist on using Be A Pro, then have your Pro replace whoevers in your position at your choice of team, with the real players making up the remainder of the roster.

when does fifa 12 come out to buy ?

All im going to say is this mate, next time youre on FIFA11 try and 'ping' a few long'ish through balls through your opponent(s), it wont work the majority of the time. Being Fabregas, Iniesta, Adam etc it doesnt matter, it wont work.

Try it on PES2011, happens all the time, yes abit too easily but it happens and is do'able.

demo is 16 mins late :homme:

At least you have the demo, us ps3 users dont get it until tomorrow! :wall:

[Chr15]

if it takes any longer to download ill get it tomorrow too :p

on XBL, its not even advertised, you have to go find it yourself, no shortcuts from the main menu :S

Do not like the new default camera angle, insanely hard on world class (should be, but will catch you out).

Looks wise it may as well be 11. Tackles are a bit better.. Nothing much to see here folks.

[Brettles1986]

It's hard to get the hang of and even on intermediate the players just weave all over the place all the time, gonna take some time to adapt to

[TimWesty]

I feel like the games based on playing a lot more defensive if you get me :/ Like you said above, will take time to get used to but does it good :)

[Bound]

Tackling and dribbling/control is better. AI is really good now - They actually can go round you/beat you/pull of skill. Game is harder in general (requires more accurate balls imo). Hardly revolutionary though.. Looks exactly the same as fifa 11. Menus are worse imo. Don't like the default camera angle (although it might grow on me I'm still using the old tele angle for now though)

[galps]

The AI needs to commit Fouls more often. Thing in the past year on even on the harder tackles, ive seen at AI player sent off once, and maybe 5 yellow. virtually impossible to get your Created players Freekick stats up without playing online

[0rang3peel]

I struggle like fuck to get the ball back it's even more annoying when you don't have possession than the first one!

[Bound]

Plus fucking one, getting possession back is such a mission now. Kinda what I mean when I said they've made the AI better.. It's probably the most noticeable difference actually. I'm sure there is a technique (left trigger jostling/A button jostling etc). Need to get better at that seeing as I play a passing game.. Difficult without the ball mind. :p.

[Mike-VTR]

FIFA - prime example why you shouldnt publish in house games.

[Ryyy]

Menus are horrid, looks worse than 11 by miles..still very buggy in the cut-scenes and play etc

However the AI has improved although I just couldn't catch them with any side tackles?! Weird..
