It is indeed. I absolutely love playing COD/MW/HALO with my friends and the local community here (and I've put a ton of time in them) but those games simply cant compare to FIFA's Clubs when it comes to sheer satisfaction and excitement...probably just a football thing.k0ji-wd said:

FIFA is such an undocumented game that it baffles me how little information sharing there is. Everywhere you go, every forum its bitching or boasting or asking for stuff, there's very little useful info sharing which is kinda strange nowadays, most games I play are documented to the brim thanks to the internet and places like GAF. Anyway hoepfully others can chime in with tips too, alot of this is how I think things are, I dont know how definite it is.
3) Free kicks vary a lot, kinda like real life, your player's skill in them is very important and from there your technique has to be spot on.
- holding up = dip
- LB/L1 = power (unless you have power free kick trait ironically in which case its low driven, i.e. hard along the floor)
If I'm within 25 yards I line the edge of the wall with the post, press up (which I hold until the view stops moving, can be tricky) and shoot with 3 bars or so, any curl is added after the shot button is released.
Alternatively if I have power free kick on, I aim at the post not covered by the wall, press up and LB and shoot hard, 3 or 4 bars. Or go under the wall with a small tap.
Further than 25 yards I do the same only hold up and LB and avoid using curl.
4) I think that white thing is how much power the pas actually had. So if you tap it gently your bar will go short but the white marker will be above it showing how much power was actually used. If you hold it to the max, you'll also see the difference. I find it a nuisance at times as you realise just how little control your passing power bar has. I only figured this out when I tried manual passing where the marker doesn't appear and you realise what a short/maxed out pass actually looks like and how much the game was passing for you.

I have a question about Fifa 11 hopefully someone can answer.
A friend of mine rented FIFA 11 and brought it over to my house to play last week and I noticed that if you wanted to play international teams there are only the few well known countries that you can choose from.
My question
I was wondering do the other countries get unlocked as you play games or do you need to download them as DLC or they just wont be included?
The only reason is that in FIFA 2010 World Cup game they have a huge selection of international teams and me and my friends (all from different back grounds) like playing with our home countries.
I was going to get FIFA11 but if the international team choices are so limited I think I'll just wait till FIFA12.

For whatever reason, the non specialized versions of FIFA contain a odd selection of International teams. My guess is market for the game are largest in those countries. Unfortunately there are no unlockable teams, DLC teams, or any other sorts. The limit the international selection to encourage the purchasing of their intermittent releases such as FIFA World Cup, and FIFA Euro 2012. It sucks.

Ohh. I see. That blows.
Would you guys know if this is also the case with PES?

That white thing's actually an indicator for a perfectly weighted pass (i.e ball reaches your team mate in the shortest time possible). Over/under hitting the ball will lead to error-prone passes and as far as I know, this power-dependant aspect of pro passing is turned off for manual settings (contextual error like wrong footedness, pressure, etc remains though)kaizoku said:

I only have a PS3, and I really don't think I am ready for a Gaf League. I am still in the sprint down the sides with a fast player and score (which only works when playing against Amateur difficulty against the comp).
Need more practice.

There are about twice as many national teams in PES (approx. 80 vs 40). You can see the full list here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pro_Evolution_Soccer_2011 - but I'm not sure how many of those 80 are fully licensed (some definitely aren't - for example, the USA is in there in theory, but with fictional kits and players).

I think the game ball bug from fifa 10 may have returned. I'm playing a game in the Budesliga, and instead of playing with the official game ball, its a generic orange EA sports game ball. Has anyone else encountered this ?

I hate to say it, but that really is a deal breaker. The licenses are very important to me, which makes me feel a bit like an ass. Oh well, that is why I play FIFA!
Funnily enough, those licenses are most likely also the reason why there aren't more national teams. From what I understand, FIFA's licensing agreement requires EA to put out official games for each World Cup and UEFA EURO Championship, which has led to the borking of regular FIFA titles. It's kind of annoying, because every FIFA release is either coming right after a championship (like 11) or right before one (like 10 or 12).Awesome Animals said:
FWIW, I still think they should take a week more just to tweak the menu functionality. I don't know how many times I've input "down, down, down, A, A, A" just to get back to play another quick match, when they could've just dropped me back to the Xbox Live menu.

online game modes > head to head > custom match
press square to view/change settings
set did not finish to 10% max (default in ranked games is ANY thats why people leave)
now chances are you'll be hosting the game and play against someone decent
you can also change the game speed to slow normal or fast which is good, i play on slow
So who do I complain about death threats? A guy told me I would die after I beat him. When I responded that everyone dies eventually, he replied with this: (spoilered because of graphic language)
Does this mean I'm officially too good at FIFA?

I think I'm at level 22 or 23? Lost my last 2 games, so that should put me at around 3250 points. I play as either Sevilla or if people wanna take it to a lower level, Dinamo Moscow. This guy was playing as Real Madrid. He pulled even with a fluky corner at full time, only to foul me in the box during my last chance attack. I scored the winner from the penalty and didn't give him a rematch.sneaky77 said:
FIFA hate mail is the best. It's great to see people in their raging element. I've only gotten hate mail when playing FIFA. Oddly enough the only messages I've sent are along the lines of 'hey, those were some great games.'
I also love beating the likes of Real with Liverpool. That never gets old.

you have to use it on the honk kong ps store then, wont work on aus store
what you can do is make a 2nd psn account, set your country as hong kong, activate the game on that account and then go back to playing on your aus account. the activation works for the entire console.

In some ways I always loved having a number of unlicensed national teams in PES since you could have the freedom to edit the kits. When a new kit was released or a different kit combo, you could just jump right into edit mode and reflect those changes. As long as the players themselves were licensed then that was cool with me (or at least the ability to edit the names, too).
