Sounds good, like the idea of incorporating first touch error finally, would prefer more implementation of inertia (foot planting to stop it looking a bit skatey when doing sharp turns etc) as they have finally put into NHL funnily enough.

Enjoyed Career Mode last year so any improvements will be welcome and more randomness in transfer negototiations sounds good.

Nice to hear stats will have more of an effect of players too hopefully, EA have loads of data reviewers and editors going over every tiny detail of their assigned clubs but they have been frustrated as to how little impact it had on the pitch.
 
Fifa doesn't need to have extra features. What it needs to focus is to make it faster, smaller in size but at the same time to keep its picture quality high. There are people who can't play what you are producing and you keep going into deep forest for them. I was one of them, I played Fifa 12 on my laptop and trust me, it was very slow that I was frustrated playing it. But fortunately, I bought a playstation recently with an LG 3D TV. I can play Fifa 12 very well. I hope I'll be able to play Fifa 13 too.
 
I just want online clubs drastically improved,,no more hacked pro's,,better point system,,choose if you play against any's/no any's.

heard that b4 a match now theres some skill games rather than just kicking the ball about.

yeah i want Pro CLubs changed too. I personally don't like how if you're not playing an Any, an opponents players are better than yours just because of the level of the club. Surely the AI should be the same for all teams, with the difference coming from the actual players:confused:
 
What is also needed in pro clubs is for the rest of your squads players to be filled by users pro's within your club as opposed to poorly rated randomly named :censored: poor AI.
 
Pro Clubs needs some serious changes;

Should be able to select whether opposition has ANY or not

Hacked pros are rife everywhere, 6'8 players with 99 Overalls, surely it isnt that hard to filter them out and block them.

Defensive A.I at times begs for Benny Hill music, zero coordination, zero marking ability

Goalkeepers passing goal-kicks straight forward to opposition, the worst type of goals to concede

Kit clashes, sometimes the ref is in black when the rest of the squad are too, and the keepers wear the same colour shirt as the outfield players (liverpool away kit prime example)
 
It would be nice if they fixed the clubs, it could be a great mode. But I'm amazed so many have bothered with it in recent years. It's been absolute trash. Laggy, buggy and full of cheaters. its completely pointless in its current state.

Has anyone seen any decent pre order offers for this yet? Not like add-ons, just decent prices.
 
any news on the demo?
 
I think it's being shown at that show over in Germany today so there may be some more info later this evening all being well.
 
I can't link to it at the moment, but some very good news gents has hit regarding this.

- Online Pro is Clubs only now, and will be saved on the server. No more boosting and hacking

- a Matchday feature allows you to tie the game into the actual footy season. Meaning changes in commentary depending on stats etc.

- Co-op play has now been added to seasons! (This is the best news for me)

Demo is out Sept. 11th :thumbsup:
 
Any clamping down on glitched pros is goods news. Just think what's the point, but every game has its glitches. Just hope out works.

Is that coop online, that would be good.

Ref decisions need to improve especially in pro clubs. Plus offsides are to accurate :)

Is "Seasons" the same as "Career Mode" in FIFA12? Playing that Co-op online would be fantastic!

Any decent pre-orders about?

No it was H2H seasons before. Now they have renamed it Seasons. Career mode is seperate, and has had an overhaul too.

Ohh okay, that's a bit of a shame. Was hoping that they'd put an online co-op mode into Career, maybe next year hey! :)

I've been hoping for tjis for a while and hen I read 2v2 seasons, i first thought co-op but then realised I was mistaken :(
