I got lucky!! Nick sent me his newest beta version of his latest gameplay patch. Here are my thoughts on it:


-Defenders PRESSURE a lot more. This changes drastically "the feel" of the game. No longer you can be camping with the ball on your opponent's midfield, compelling the user to think faster, just like in real football, I guess.

-The passing is stronger. Really liked it ;)

-The fatigue system is more real!

-CPU now plays less 1-2's and goes for the long ball. That's ok, but I wish they'd had a bit more possession before getting that go through ball. However, this can be a problem, 'cause it would raise overall cpu possession time (which is higher than it should be already).

-The unskillful players miss more goals, making it easier to distinguish good from bad players.

-Cards. There has to be more cards shown. That was one of the best feature of your patches. Don't make it like every foul gets a card, though ;)

-The shooting seems more intuitive: if you're far away from goal, let the bar power up, if you're close you don't need all that strength on the shot. Really liked the shooting!

Thanks again, Nick! I can't wait for the final version!

Thank you very much Infesta, really appreciate that!!!!

Let me just point out to everyone that this ISN'T the Beta(s) that was available on my website, this is one of my latest!!!!! ;)

Thanks again,

Nick Clubman
