    One thing that I thought was odd though was Rio Ferdinand making a 30mil switch to Spure :confused: but I couldn't really give a shít I'll still hockey them :p. Made one signing in the transfer window which was Lloris and I had to stump up 32mil to get him :eek: Worth it though.

    I rally hope players were not going to be horribly over price. BUt going on what you just said they are. The transfer system hasn't been the may west for a few years hope its gotten better.

    Yeah I think it's going to be overpriced this year tbh, but I don't mind it been like that :), It means I get more for the tossers I have on my bench (Fabianski, Almunia etc) :p.

    Played the Pc version, it's the exact same as Fifa 10 :mad: so I may buy it for the 360. Does anyone know if they have fixed the rating system for Be a Pro mode this season as it's still pretty crap on Pc


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,405 ✭✭✭Lukker-


    Got it today, not majorly impressed with it. Could have been much more, the personality+ seems kind of tacked on.

    Got mine today too, not really impressed either. The best thing they done was change the German commentators which doesn't say much for the gameplay :o.

    Gone back to NHL 11 already.

    I hate you soooo very much right now! Not only did you get the game earlier, your not even playing it :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,523 ✭✭✭joe123


    It would be a lot more beneficial to the thread if all these people saying "im not that impressed with it" etc etc would actually state what they dont like about it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,459 ✭✭✭T-b0n3


    Where did people get it? Any where in Dublin selling it yet?

    Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,941 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    4 or 5 people say they got the game early , none of them like it or will say where they got it, smells like trollin' to me. Either that or they all pirated it

    I have it and I'm not trolling, It's against the rules to say where we got them, there was a thread yesterday but it's closed now.

    They are legit copies btw.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16 Cloud89


    How do so many people seem to have the game before it's release date. Are by any chance are all of you hanging around the back of a transit buying stolen games because I have asked in BOTH game and gamestop and the said I have to wait until friday.

    I also will not believe what you are saying about the game being poor.... etc etc untill I have played it for a few weeks to see overall game play.

    It's a legitimate copy not pirated, but they're not to be sold until Friday in Ireland so it's against the rules.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,241 ✭✭✭Vic Vinegar


    I found a great link here of custom chants/entrance music for every team in the game that a guy made, very handy!

    http://forum.ea.com/uk/posts/list/4401.page

    That guy has been very busy! when you have the files it's easy enough to get them into the game (easier still if on PS3)

    lol that's ridiculous, every time a big game comes out there's a thread looking for shops selling it early

    e.g. http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056042321

    Sometimes one shop breaks the rules and the others follow, don't think it's looking likely this year.

    Could you at least say what you dont like about it? Compare it to the demo? All we are getting is. "yeah I got it. Its meh". Not very helpful to be honest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 480 ✭✭Flyin Irishman


    I didnt like fifa 10 when I first got it, it just felt different than '09, and i didnt like it. I'm sure I'll be the same with 11 but, after a few weeks I bet I wont be able to imagine ever goin back (which is what happened with Fifa 10).

    Could this be why you guys are saying ur not impressed or is it more specific flaws?

    Cool. Does it play just like the demo? Some were saying there were differences?

    Not ''trollin'' and not pirated. There's no problem with the game it just wasn't worth the €55. I got it from a friend who works at a place to answer your other question.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,255 ✭✭✭Renn


    What's the place?

    And I think you were robbed if you were paying 55, think it'll be a good bit cheaper come Friday. What did you expect anyway, did you even play the demo?

    Not bothered if I paid a bit more than it will cost come Friday. I had it pre-ordered anyways online for around €46. Even at €35 - €40 it still isn't worth buying in my opinion. There's just not enough upgrades from 10 to justify the cost.

    I still prefer 09 to 10.


    Can everyone stop asking where the people who have it already got it from, there's a PM feature on boards if you want to annoy them :cool:

    Haven't bought a FIFA since 05, but have always wanted to get back intop it, so thought what better way than with FIFA 11!

    I played the demo a good few times in a row, but only once did I score an actual goal! Is it always this hard to get a goal?

    Also, after being given the 3 difficultys, I choose the middle one (intermediate or something) just wondering where this is in terms of the FIFAs of old? (Amatuer, Semi-Pro, Professional, World Class)

    Those difficulties are still in FIFA 11, intermediate is semi-pro


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,892 ✭✭✭evad_lhorg


    there are more than three difficulties. go into the game settings in the demo before a game and you can pick them all


  • Registered Users Posts: 261 ✭✭Liathroidi Dana


    Thanks for the quick replies!

    I'll give the game another shot on a different difficulty then.

    Start with Amatuer mate then work your way up :).

    As mentioned fifa still has 5 difficulty settings: amateur, semi-pro, pro, world class, legendary.

    The 3 options at the start of the demo (Beginner, Intermediate, ?) are suggested layouts that not only affect the difficulty setting, but also the assist levels for passing, shooting, crossing etc. These layouts work as a good starting point to get the settings to suit your level, and as you play the game you can adjust individual settings to tweak it to your tastes as you progress.

    Give it time, with practise (and longer game lengths) you'll be banging in goals in no time. Though thankfully, you should be able to find a difficulty where it fun, but challenging so you dont get bored of 13-0 walkovers

    Thanks everything I wanted to know.

    Then again 'm not going to start on amatuer, cause then its just gonna be embarssing when I lose against Bristol Rovers 4-0.
