FIFA 13

So far the best addition has to be the skill games! (keep in mind I haven't touched ultimate team or career mode yet) I can see myself sinking a LOT of time into those.
 
Well I've used it, not sure about good effect but it's interesting, the one massive problem though is when your kinect is active there's a big bar/logo on the bottom right showing kinect and it covers the name of the opponent on the ball so unless you can recognise the player you have no idea who it is and don't know which way to send them to put them onto their weak foot, quite dumb from EA.

Paul, use the visual settings to place the name above the player's heads. Finally in FIFA after being in World Cup.
 
That's a good shout hadn't thought of that, but I find it annoying TBH because it's "un real" as in I like playing Fifa to make me feel like I'm watching a match on Sky, thus I always have the commentators turned on etc etc :)
 
Been playing the game on Xbox 360 since saturday and the game definately feels faster from the demo. But it depends on what teams you are playing with, as some people have mentioned already.

I'm just looking forward to Thursday, so I can get it on PC and play it on my 24" monitor, instead of my 37" SONY LED TV :)

Playing the game on a smaller screen makes the game feel slower.
I think it was Simon Humber tweeting about that last year or the year before that, that he played it on a smaller screen.

For me it makes sense - The ball has to travel a longer distance on a bigger screen, than on a small one :)That was his explanation, kind of..

But I'm also looking forward to not having the sluggish menus and the horrible slowdown on replays/intros :) It's gonna be lovely! And all the mods and LOD-configurator.. Oh boy - Sexy time :)

Correct.

A big tv makes the game feel faster. Way better on a pc monitor, 24" or so.
 
Everything will be bigger on the larger screen so the distance will be the same.

Not true. You stay the same, as does your field of view. Take it to the logical extreme and imagine a tv a mile wide. Player has to get from a to b in the same time, so it would seem ridiculously fast to view for you.

True but it only persists for a second or so & means you don't have to divert your gaze to the lower corner & take your eye off the ball.

If you're still sat 2 metres away from a TV a mile wide, sure.

I'd rather turn the names off above heads and on the bottom so I can see more of the screen. What does the Fade option do with regard to this type of setting? Does it put the players name above their head and then fade out slowly? I saw it but haven't tried it yet.
 
If we chagne proxy adres in lan settings to USA, we will be able to play just now, right? It will pass the activation. People did it with Battlefield 3 and ME 3 and it worked.
 
Does this make sense to anyone?

Paul ‏@Placebo_obecalP

@thisismunny my preference was manager career with VP on my team as was many peoples but this has been removed for no reason with no warning

Munraj Hyare ‏@thisismunny

@Placebo_obecalP you can still create a player.

I tweeted back saying I don't understand:

Paul ‏@Placebo_obecalP

@thisismunny not sure I understand? If I cre8 a player to use in CM will he get accomplishments and unlock stuff? That's the fun of VP in CM

But nothing back, very confused...
 
Cheeky? Not sure how it's cheeky? His answer bears no relation at all to the issue at hand?

Exactly.
As if he doesn't know what you're asking him he swiftly offers you to create a player and thus get off his case. Not holding my breath of ever hearing a reasonable explanation for why they did it.
 
Positioning is the main thing. Use LT to jostle your way in front of your opponent so you can meet the ball first. And don't press the shoot button too late.

I use LT to jostle for my headers, but somebody said earlier LT was the volley modifier? But I have always used it to jostle for position for headers. If it was the volley modifier I wouldn't win any headers as I would be volleying it all of the time?

I'm conflused........

LT+ shooting is the volley modifier specially when the ball is in a position for you to volley it (not sure if you understand me).
It's different from using LT to fight for your space during aerial battles and then press the shoot button to make a header

Not sure if I understand, so I press shoot then LT for volley modifier?

When the ball is in a position/height to volley my player mostly does, can't recall many times when they have gone for a header instead?
