Re: FIFA Soccer 10 Full Game Impressions

Thanks for the EXCELLENT impressions Demencia.

A couple of questions/requests.

-Can you check the CTT and see how many save slots there are? I believe there were 28 in FIFA 09.

-What are the shooting CTT settings for the teams you played against?

-Can you play a game with EPL and Serie A teams to see if the styles of play are different?

-Playing defense on World Class, is it beneficial to play passing lanes or to go straight at the player in possesion like it's been for years?

-Are you noticing tactical changes throughout the match from the CPU?

-As you get more into MM are you noticing that the CPU doesn't play the same starting 11 every week?

Thanks man!

Re: FIFA Soccer 10 Full Game Impressions

alrighty, I got it earlier today so I've had a decent go at each mode.

Manager mode:
They've really taken the whole 'form' thing too far. You quickly realise that what at first appears to be a nice addition has too much bearing on the game. Fatigue is slightly more pronounced than last year, meaning squad rotation is a little more important. I found myself still having to rotate a little bit even with full training facilities. Apart from form and the new menu presentation, there are very few new features in MM. I really wanted a comprehensive stats page where I could see league leaders in a number of stats and club records, but stats are still confined to the "top 20" goals, clean sheets and cards. You can't even check who has the most assists.

Overall a bit dissapointed with the 'new' MM

BAP:
Be a Pro is the same old 4 season basis underneath. It is essentially the same except for player development, which has improved greatly. Instead of getting to a 95 overall within 2 seasons and allocating points wherever you want, it is now based on achievements. eg. you might need to score 5 headers to get +2 heading accuracy. This system is much better. It means that your player improves in the areas you succeed at and encourages you to diversify your style of play to unlock everything. This system is great but doesn't go very far towards hiding the very basic FIFA 09 be a pro mode. Your progress is still only measured by those club and international sliders which say "crowd favorite, squad player" etc.

Those are my thoughts on the modes. Finally, the gameplay engine is a lot more collision based. Everything feels very physical and most turnovers occur from being muscled off the ball. The game plays very very well but is similar to 09 in the sense that it still suffers from obvious flaws (repetitiveness, shocking foul system...). I would say it's the best football game ever but when I think of PES5, no obvious flaws jump out at me straight away...
Anyway, it's still very good and you should all buy it. I'll try to field some questions too.

Re: FIFA Soccer 10 Full Game Impressions

I have one question.

Do all the teams/players still feel the same or does it seem better this year?

Re: FIFA Soccer 10 Full Game Impressions

they seem to play the same again man. They still have their different playing style tags (like direct passing etc) like fifa09 but I don't think they've really added anything that differentiates the way different teams and different leagues play the game.

Re: FIFA Soccer 10 Full Game Impressions

I kind of can live with it as a long time PES player. There form allways was in the game, albeit not represented by numbers (ratings) but only on the field. Including physichal attributes like speed. If your player had a red arrow up he was noticeably faster than when he had a blue arrow down, it was like day and night.
And no one took exception to it really, now that FIFA decided to show rating changes based on form everybody is all panicky.

So as said : I won´t have a problem with it most likely. If it is overdone i´d hope for a fix via a Patch though, definitely.
Then again i really doubt this would be a dealbreaker for me seeing as i´ve done just fine with PES comic-like form system (differences on the pitch were really big and if they´d have been represented in the ratings i guess the differences would have been even bigger than last year).

However i´d like for them to make it really gradul in the coming years and combine it with injury and stamina. Of course for that to take place they´d have to fix injuries first... Still every injury is 1 week, how freaking laughable is that ? There isn´t a single major sports game out there with remotely as poor an injury system.

The way i see it this is a video game and this form feature is making you play the game differently which is a good thing. I don´t really need 110% realism in a video game.

-Other reported bug/issues :

-Training staff 8 or better = no rotation nescessary. AGAIN. But form might be the solution here, actually in that now you have a reason to rotate (players in bad form) other than your own conscience.

- assists not tallied correctly, including goalkeepers collecting assists like mad ...
