just started the second season in epl. 1st season finish was a slightly uncomfortable 16th... wasnt going so well last night with a 0-0 draw against wigan before chelsea + manu but out of nowhere gave both a 6-1 kicking!! highest overall scores yet for me and got the board off my back who for some reason want me to finish in the top half despite giving me no boost to my transfer budget in 2 seasons...
[cite]Posted By: pilchard[/cite]Just got it today, brilliant game- FIFA just gets better and better every year, well done EA!
There's a lot of people who would shake with rage when reading this post!! I'm not one of them, but I understand why...
Fifa 11 has more bugs than Temple of Doom. It's insane how badly made the game is. The game engine remains the best footy engine of all time, but the bugs are immense:
While the forums for Fifa are full of angry kids, you must be doing something wrong to get 56 pages of angry customers responding to your "we fixed the game!" thread!!
Fortunately, it is possible to go through life not noticing a lot of them, but as someone who loves to enjoy a bit of Be A Pro, I am hugely disappointed with the experience and on the verge of giving up. EA promised to fix the issues with November's patch, but all it did was fix Exeter's kit or something, and stop the billion pound career mode debt bug from happening. The other 200 reported bugs were left alone!
I was playing online as an invisible guy the other week while lagging, during be a pro... was hilarious when I ran the ball, but did get a message calling me a cheating pr!ck :-(
I get kicked from Be A Pro Clubs every game without fail, though I have a average wired connection speed of 11mbps, I now don't bother with it, it's ridiculous

Had one freeze since the day it came out. That's it for me! Must be one of the lucky ones.

Why would anyone possibly shake with rage at that post (sorry and all that)? I have had no problems apart from JPT games going into extra time and being played in the daylight, hardly major probs but then I don't play online so maybe there are tons of bugs there of which I am unaware and which may well grate and make players have fits of rage, as my Fifa 11 experience is offline I have to report that I have enjoyed the game immensely and that I have no major issues to report. As a game I prefer it to previous incarnations and feel it has improved year on year.

I'm with you - the bugs have largely not affected me in Manager Mode and we're enjoying it enough to keep going back. But if you read those forums you'll find there's an extraordinary amount of users bemoaning the bugs across the game, and all the time EA continue to ignore them, the angrier they are becoming... I'm a PES fan through and through, I just wish Konami could get their hands on the game engine, as they've nailed pretty much everything else.
I can't believe im saying this but i'm so bored of Fifa 11 already. It doesn't throw up enough surprises, i am yet to complete a season on manager mode. I usually get half way through a season then get bored, due to same stadia, cut scenes etc etc. Also the gap between world class and legendary is dumb. I find it impossible to concede on world class and can usually average around 4 goals per game whereas legendary usually only win by 1 and concede shite loads more. The glitches in season mode really frustrate too, theres only so many times I want to play against Southampton. But what alternative is there? Pro is poor.
Thanks Ross (good name by the way)... could I ask you - as I am useless with technology:
1. how do I become a silver member/actually download the update? (Don't worry I don't play online)
2. if I do download the update (this might be a stupid Q)... will it overwrite all my squad changes like editing player attributes, transfers, tactics etc?
Click join xbox live on your profile on the xbox dashboard. And no it won't. When you go to play the game after joining xbox live it will come up with there is an update available for this game. And follow what it says.
I clocked up loads of hours on PRO EVO then did the same with FIFA and am now back with PRO... for me FIFA is just dull... its the same goals all the time, 1-2. THROUGHBALL over the top, square pass and tap in, or finesse from the edge of the box... have I missed any???
With Pro although it is a bit clunky, it has the fundermentals of Football, it takes about 10 hrs to unlearn FIFA and relearn PES but it is well worth it, you can download the option file with CHampionsahip on it and the PRem kits for MasterLeague... and Ive also downloads all the stadiums which adds something, and all the PREM chants... Ive also built the Valley, which looks mint...
Ive got all the Charlton Kits if you need as well...
Also Maste League online is the best mode on any football game available right now..
It has more teams, just not licensed. So you have to download 3rd party extensions if you want everything proper. Fifa is better, although both are rubbish this year.

AI doesnt exploit the engine the way online players do either. (lob and cross)
