Im getting pretty pissed off with Fifa now. It was raw, but great at first, but now, things are just grating on me by the day.
Firstly, the game has been released about two months too soon. What sort of QA/Testing procedures they have down there I dont know but there is no evidence it has been through that process. Theres plenty of bugs in Manager mode etc but there are far too many in the gameplay as well. What pisses me off, is theres a patch coming out in a few weeks, but it doesnt touch the gameplay.
BAP:S - The AI on this mode is that bad its unplayable. I've just started a BAP and the intelligence of players around me is ridiculous, I pretty much have to do everything myself and then my pro gets knackered. You cant play a decent game of football because of the AI.
Cant be arsed to list the bugs in Manager Mode. I can handle the modes being buggy but when the gameplay is ridden with bugs its unacceptable. We've paid £40 for it and it is supposed to work. Just playing now, a goalkeeper comes running out of his box and catches the ball. Shooting needs tweaking but potentially is better than 09. The jostling needs tweaking, little maggots push players like Ade off the ball far too easy.
Potentially, it could be the best footy game of all time, but right now, its a buggy mess. I just feel that if greater care was implemented in the testing, it would have been released in November, but it would have been released as the finished product. I dont understand how the testing/dev team could not see the tweaks and bugs that needed sorting.
Until the 2nd/3rd patch, it looks like we'll just have to play online and put up with the gameplay issues.
