Fifa 11 Xbox 360/PS3

what I dont get is how come the preview from eurogamer said pro passing got rid of the ping pong passing. I am sure they mentioned that pro passing did work.

what has changed since then?

exactly that's what I don't get? that is why I want to hear what people from here get up to next week, because then we will know for sure what settings they had it on et etc and how it all plays.

People should chill out for a while until we get more info.
 
YouTube - FIFA 08 Top 30 goals

Probably not the best example, but this looks much realistic to me.

I had forgotten all about what FIFA08 looked like.

The pace here could actually be nudged up quite a bit for ultimate realism, unless these are Swedish division 1 teams in which case it is quite realistic. Regardless this is a pace you don't see in FIFA10 with the worst teams on slow setting. Contrast this against that Jeux Video entry that placebo just uploaded, and the difference is huge, and FIFA08 actually comes off as better looking for me, because I'd rather have the game slightly too slow than with a rocket on its back. I could very much imagine playing FIFA08 online on manual even against assisted players, because you'd actually have some time to process the action.
 
Looks like you have plenty of time to joke around but not enough time to fix all your bugs. Good job.

I only mod on their forums and provide feedback by playing early builds of the game. I'm not part of the dev team. Just a fan who started the whole YouTube goal frenzy ;)

For those who get a laugh everytime you watch one of my goals comps, at least you're still watching. It's appreciated.

Stay tuned for a sick video when I get 10k subs. It's going to be epic!

I dont get it. Every video looks like a different game:CONFUSE: Here the pace looks plus minus ok, on other it is chaotic...

That's definitely better. Ball pace looks better particularly, passes actually look slow.

Still think player animation speeds in certain situations need to be dropped down a smudge, even in these videos. But definitely an improvement. Obviously if this is the Slow gameplay setting we can forget this being used online...

No Slow setting for online?

exactly. The game previewed seems very far removed from what we are seeing. Emirates is make or break.

EA need to release some official footage as the mixed bag we are getting doesnt help at all.

I wonder if none of these videos are from the PC version. Because it's there to play and the PC producer wrote that he didn't think people realised it was the PC version because you can't see the cases.

I wish these super speedy videos that hasn't the Pro Passing marker is actually the PC version. Probably not, but one can dream.
wishful thinking mate ebcause pc versions uppose to be identical to fifa 10/WC and both games are much slower than those videos.

man it does look awful in places but will judge it by trying the demo myself. i do have a feeling that for the first time ever, we will have 2 brilliant footy games to play!

On FIFA 08, using manual through balls was actually an advantage if you were good at it... Assisted through balls are so perfectly weighted into players paths and away from defenders on FIFA 09 and 10 that using manual against an assisted player is pointless if you want any chance of winning...
 
EA should really hurry up with some "official" gameplay videos, because this is getting ridiculous. We dont know what is switched on/off on these videos, we dont know if its PC or PS3, we dont know if its on fast or normal speed...
And we dont know if its fifa 10 or fifa 11 ;)

The only problem was the reaction times from what I can recall. Everything else was there. You had different shot powers, headers were much better.

If they could integrate 360 degree control into that same game-type and include individuality; that would be incredible.
 
The speed here is 'normal' which is not the FIFA 08 speed.

Yes but I doubt the speed he is talking about is making them slow down when turning. Like I said, it's not the top speed and how long it takes to reach full sprint that is the big problem, it's that they float around so quickly whenever they make a change in direction. Even turning 180 degree to full speed jogging is instant more or less.

mmm the defending wasnt great though, granted it didnt have the crazy high line like FIFA 09, FIFA 10 but they were too perfect in 08.
 
I'd much prefer that; so when I score it means something. Rather than feeling I've cheated the game as it is now.

That's where I though the series would head into but alas. Anyway I didn't think reaction time was a big issue with FIFA08. Sure, the higher rated players could use more responsiveness but for the most part it was perfect for what it was trying to emulate (players adjust to proper footing before making a multi-touch pass or shot, hence the "delay")

It'd be the ultimate FIFA game, no doubt, plus MM worked well that year!!
 
somebody over at a german forum mentioned that shooting now feels much more responsive and satisfying - longer time to load up the shooting bar combined with actual response of the player, e.g. the longer you hold the button the longer the animation "stretches". also there is a lot more power and physics behind the ball, something he said he felt the last time with pes 5 / 6.

sounds pretty good.

So you are still quite a figure in the Fifa community and instead of taking full advantage of that by concentrating all your efforts on providing maximum feedback to ensure Fifa is the footballer's game of choice, you go and do that. Fifa fans in this forum are clearly not happy with what they've seen so far. If I were you I'd stop playing around and do something about it.

I hope so, yet to see any power in shooting on the vids...
 
Guys, when you go to play the game or on the secret forums, try to make sure they consider slowing the passing speed way down. I'm closely monitoring the "pro-passing-best-pass" maker and in most of them it seems that if you under/over hit the pass by 35-45% the ball still travels to the player quite fast. The passing speed needs to be slowed down by at least 30% or so. And the passing error has to be increased quite a bit. Then we have a game. Otherwise...I'll still enjoy playing as Zenit and using manual but I want to be on the same playing field with assisted guys.
 
Ball physics on last FIFA's on freekicks have been weird though, it's not the same physics as on regular shots. You can shoot really hard freekicks in FIFA 10 with the hard shot modifier (LB on my settings).
