Think I went the whole game without touching the ball apart from kick off! Deffo need to bang it down a level or two.<br /><br />-- Sat Sep 17, 2011 8:23 pm --<br /><br />I can't seem to get close enough to the opposition to get a foot in when I'm not in possession. Anyone having the same problem, its as if the arsenal team all have an invisible 2m forcefield around them.
XBOX 360 btw

Try legendary then.
I play on this on all fifa's and it's hard.
I have a feeling this year's legendary will be extreme hard indeed and another notch up from previous ones!

Seems that way Freestyler, I consider myself to be a good player but world class mode on the demo is something else. Properly given the run around, felt vastly inferior. May well have to resort back to my negative brand of football of knocking it round the back 4 and try and grab one on the break, for which I recieved harsh criticism during my university days. Boring, boring nem.

I might even make some sort of an appearance when they are getting the Bluemoon team together for FIFA12.
Now were talking... wait, PS3 or Xbox?
I've been in a club for a few years now, we usually do pretty well (Xbox 360) its the main reason i buy FIFA now, playing as the whole team seems boring now.
P.S On legacy defending, holding standing tackle button makes the player you're controlling pressure the ball carrier and attempt a tackle automatically.

can someone give me the perfect insight on the tactical defending and timing tackles and what the right buttons please?
PS3 btw.
ta.
just to add, what i thought was cool today..
i chipped a long ball over the last defender and chased it with Aguero, the keeper came out and picked it up just outside the 18 yard box, and step backed in.
i got a free-kick and he got booked.
on other fifa's you can't challenge the keeper when this happens, it just goes into his hands, but it seems now you can follow-through if you get me and go in for a 50/50.

The defending im now starting to get the hang of and it's a fantastic system and i feel it will really really improve the game.Just charging in at top speed and taking the ball with x just was not realistic was it?
Holding down R1 to have a team mate help you track the player in possesion is effective but you also need to apply L2 and x at the same time with your own player to track/close down the opposition player effectively.If you feel like you are in a solid position to win the ball press o.It's all about timing, if you misstime your tackle your up shit creek and will leave them in acres of space.Using sprint is not worthwhile at all when defending this year, leaves you open to far too many mistakes.
Also switching effectively between your own player and the player you have tracking with R1 can be helpful but again it's all about timing.
It takes a bit of patience to get used to it but when you start getting a feel for what you are doing it all comes together very quickly.
By no means a perfect insight as im still trying to master it properly myself but hope it helps.

Looks like it's going to be a great game. The defending Is difficult at first but when u get used to it it becomes so good. Can't wait for it to be released best Demo of Fifa/Pro I've ever played. Looks like Pro may have more catching up to do IMO they started to fall behind after Pro 5. So 2 more weeks till release and I can't wait it's pre ordered from Play.com the special edition version £42.99 :)
