But i know when the real game comes out and i start playing online, i'm gonna have to stop that offsides stuff.

Depends on how you play

I play through balls all the time so my players are often offside

Also depends on what teams/players you use. FIFA tries to make players act like they do in real life, so players like David Villa always blow past defenders with their speed but are sometimes TOO quick. Can't really prevent it sometimes

 A+

The crosses in the box that the CPU does are deadly lol

 

[hugo]

this game feels extra slow. and the offense be slipping through my D to easily by doing some moves. BUTthe passing in this game is finally perfect. waited so many years for that to change

$%%+ annoys the +%$! out of me. For some reason I had a way easier time with it in fifa 11

welp i finally got better on defense. and changed the game speed to fast and now the game is truly perfect for me =]

 

[dapurplengold213]

just ordered now on amazon. I hope I get it on the release date.

I like how crossing isn't so overpowered like it was in FIFA 11 now.

The ball doesn't always go to the back post and the keeper and defenders finally don't just stand around anymore.

I sent it already
And I wouldnt mind the tactical defending but if you miss the tackle, you're DONE.. Its no recovery from that

.. I'll master it after a while tho 

This is how it should be. 

On the fence about that.  It's true that if David Villa/Chicharito breaks past the last man, you can pretty much assume a goal in real life...
But, the average person who plays the game isn't a professional FIFA player...so one mistake = goal is a bit of tough....

But I guess it give the game more replay value as it isn't as easy to master and get bored of it.
