Fifa 12

[RU_]

How much would Crysis 2, Borderlands, and Assassins Creed 2 give me? I have $70 already would I get 30 from them?

Just played my first game, and what the **** is the keeper doing? half the time hes in the middle of the ground! He's just ball chasing?!

Easy. Just call up and ask if in doubt.

You pressing Y/Triangle?

Yeah, when I am running, just because I used too. haha.

Well there's your problem.

Yeah, that'll do it.

 

[RU_]

I can't catch there players and I am running while holding a?

 

[PP34]

You can't abuse the standing tackle like in previous games. It requires skill to get the ball now.

I don't think FIFA12 is worth it tbh.

I'd hold back and wait on reviews of the official release.

 

[Beloved]

Oh dear.

Did you not do the tutorial at the start of the game? It details the completely new defence system. Holding X/A isn't going to get the job done this year.

 

[Toshowyouwhy]

Oh dear.

What's the problem?

 

[Benno_900]

Oh dear.

Why?

Eastlands/CoMS has been renamed to Etihad stadium this season.

I did, but like its hard to remember, isn't it you run using A which keeps you with them, then tapping/holding b tackles?

Yup, commit to a tackle too early and its over

Disregard the contain button completely, it's almost useless. Jockey heaps and use teammate pressing.

 

[RU_]

Oh ok, will do.

 

[Toshowyouwhy]

Oh ok, will do.

Don't panic if you're struggling to defend. I've put hours into the demo and am still struggling.

Just opened my Ultimate team pack and the best I got was a 64 - Nicholson.
What did you's get?

What's the difference between Jockey and Contain?

I don't even tackle, although sometimes it automatically does when jockeying. I just stand off and try to read/intercept the passes.

I think I've got my head around the defending system but I'm getting peeved off more with how well the CPU defend now. The step up between difficulties is ridiculous. I win 4-0 / 5-0 on Professional and can hardly create a chance on World Class.

HOORAH! Got two free packs and the two heighest were: 82- Soldado, and a 76 - McGregor.

They any good? haha.

Soldado is alright.
My best out of the two gold packs was Filipe - 80CB/LB
What a piece of shit... lol To many brazilians but i know alot of people like to build teams like that, so hopefully i can sell them pretty high

Referring to my struggle with stadium names for various sports already. Should have been more clear.

Contain just seems to put you in a position nearby to the attacker, and gives you very little control over movement of the defender, whereas you have full control and can react when jockeying. The only time I use contain is near the penalty area when I'm desperately trying to close down shots, and it's easier to get in the way than jockeying.

My defense works mainly around allowing defenders and certain midfielders time on the ball, whilst closing down passing lanes and potential opportunities, trying to force bad passes. My tackling has improved a heap too, so I can actually win the ball back myself a bit better too. The CPU AI is still too perfect on the ball, which makes it tricky, but I find this to be the best way.
