I upgraded from FIFA 10 as the price of FIFA 11 has come down now. I've had this game for a week or so now and having played it, there are a number of improved areas, but more horrendous ideas have been put into this game. It's plays much like FIFA 10 but worse in my opinion due to a number of issues
First of all, this game is so cheap. I don't mean how much it is, but in terms of playability. The ref penalises you for making the slightest contact with the ball carrier when tackling. You'd never think you were playing a contact sport. Yet, the computer is freely allowed to barge you over and off the ball resulting in nothing.
Secondly, tackling is ridiculous, it usually results in the ball flying off miles away or bouncing off you and your player tripping over the tackled player. It's so stupid sometimes.
Thirdly, they seem to have designed the game to try and get everyone doing the stupid tricks on the stick. You can no longer rely on a player's speed to burst round someone, the computer will keep up with you and tackle you. The tricks are fine for Ronaldo and a few others, but when league 1 players are doing maradona esq runs through your entire team, it's laughable. They seem to have focused on trying to get these tricks into the game a little too much. I'd rather play a pass and move game, which is much harder in this game than FIFA 10, due to the computer swamping you immediately if you have the ball. If they want to integrate these tricks, they should make them easy to do like Pro Evo, not random wiggles of the stick.
I have to also mention the passing is terrible, why did they have to mess with this? The passing was fine in FIFA 10.
The online mode is ok, the servers are usually stable and there are still a plethora of quitters.... Read more ›

I was a huge fan of FIFA 10 and lost many hours playing. Got FIFA 11 on release day and I'm having real trouble enjoying it...believe me I'm trying because I was really looking forward to it.
So I've had it for a week now and I am coming to the conclusion that it's not the game for me. Why not?
The balance has been tipped in favour of defence. Playing as Man Utd with Rooney and Berbatov against Swedish team. The swedish defence were always more powerful than Rooney and Berbatov. They could not turn their defenders, they couldn't beat them in a race for a through ball.
Games descend into a mess. Just played as Spurs against West Ham and neither team could hold the ball in midfield - loads of misplaced passes, the ball bouncing around in an unrealistically overcrowded centre circle.
Pedantic refereeing that interrupts play constantly.
Through balls are always intercepted.
Passing system - I know that EA wanted to get away from ping pong passing but I have found that it feels like you are passing through treacle. It doesn't matter how long you hold A for, the passes only just make it and more often are intercepted.
Finally, after a wonderful FIFA 10, and a brilliant World Cup game in which I enjoyed some fantastic moments of attacking football and blistering goals, why have EA messed with the balance of the game. Dare I say it, but I'm actually considering getting PES 2011.

It's not exactly brain surgery is it? FIFA 09 saw EA move in the right direction again after suffering a pummelling at the hands of PES for a few years. FIFA 10 was a tweaked improvement on that... and now this?
I heard an interview with the main guy from EA sports who stated it is very difficult to churn out 5 star games year in, year out. I agree with him, but you know when you're going in the right direction and also when you are going backwards.
First and foremost video games are about having fun. FIFA 11 delivers far more frustration than fun from what I have experienced. First off, there's the bugs. I have mostly experienced these in career mode. Sometimes a fixture is moved a day or two before it was originally scheduled in the calendar, you will still be prompted to play the game even though your updated calendar shows no fixtures for say 7 days. This leads to the game crashing. As does playing Aston Villa away in mid April apparently.
Secondly... Gameplay. Wow, where to start. Realistic? I think not! I like to have an attacking line up with plenty of pace (Lennon, Krasic, Agbonlahor & Lavezzi). In real matches these players can ghost centre halves and full backs with ease, however the bright sparks at EA have decided that whatever speedsters can do, big strapping muscle clad bruisers can do better. Yes you can get past them...eventually. Watching Aaron Lennon slowly getting the better of Ryan Nelsen in a foot race for a through ball whilst they appear to be involved in the worlds longest and slowest shoulder barge is frankly laughable. Assisted passing & crossing are a hinderance rather than assistance and the sluggish movement and slow reaction times are an annoyance given FIFA's previous two offerings.

Having owned this game since its release I can definitely say that it is possibly the worst update of the series so far. Thats not to say that its worse than '97, but it definitely doesn't deliver on the upgrades to '10 that its tried to make. The main issue is the consistency of the game.
The passing has been developed from '10 so that the weight of the pass matter a lot more. This is a good step in the right direction, however the direction of the passing is absolutely terrible. Sometimes it will go where you aim, sometimes it will go to the nearest player to you direction, its very inconsistent. Probably about 30-40% of the time it won't go to the player that you intended it to; very frustrating.
The players in the season mode don't ever improve, I'm in my 4th season on manager mode and the young players just don't develop. The goal keepers are much better than previous games, much less scatty.
Penalties have been improved.
Handball is awful. You either have it on, and the ref blows up constantly; for example any blocks of the ball inevitably result in a free-kick/pen.. or turn it off and handballs aren't ever given (obviously).
All in all, for anyone who buys the game each year, i guarantee you will be disappointed. There are clearly a lot of ideas that EA want to introduce but they are far from in working order. I think I'm going to go back to Fifa '10...

Game didn't work..
This was shocking
I didn't pay much for the game, but that's not the point.
The disc was second hand and was damaged - only visible when you play it.
