Tried the new Career Mode yet, guys?
Who's likely to be the few 5* teams that everyone will be using in head-to-head's online?

Me too. I think AC Milan will be one of them, too.Man City came to my mind first to be honest...
Team celebrations - I like how you can interact with your team mates when you have a goal. I scored a goal with Ameobi and big Campbell pulled me down while I was running away to celebrate :lol:
I got the game and I love it so much! The Be a Goalkeeper feature is where my real attention has been drawn and I think its fantastic.
I've had two friendlies so far - Newcastle v. Celtic & Hercules v. Lille. I wanted to test the gameplay. One game was in rain and the other was on a dry night. I've been impressed. I would say that its not more of a revelation from FIFA 10 but more of a polish, and an extremely good polish at that. It is the little things in this game that I noticed and appreciate. I have yet to try the online features or the career mode but I'll try it later.
So far a quick review
+
Be a Goalkeeper - controls may be limited but its a very enjoyable experience
Gameplay - top class; just like FIFA 10 but tweaked and is now much better
The passing and jostling effects have elements of realism in it
Weather - (rain as mentioned) played a role in my match. I tried long passing from one side to the other but the ball swerved a lot that I couldn't control my passes. My goal was a slippery affair - I fired in a shot and from the deflection of the goalkeeper it crept very slowly into the net that the opposing defender almost cleared the ball!
Difficulty - I did win both my friendlies but were through a 1-0 scoreline. I find it much more difficult to make precise passes and to break down the opponent's defense. I was so used to the "ping-pong" passes of FIFA 10 but its quite hard to attempt it here. You really have to work your way out to get a man free.
Newer cut-scenes - not the same old rubbish previously

National teams - seeing how WC2010 preceded this game, I am disappointed with the lack of national teams, it is basically the same from FIFA 10
Captain's armband - it's still on the substitute player already before the original captain goes out (long-time issue)
Unrecognizable faces - for the lesser teams like Hercules (apart from Trezeguet & Valdez) I couldn't identify the player if I hadn't known their names
Referees - you can pick a certain referee based on his leniency or strictness. I picked someone strict and even the slightest muscle collision equals a foul. However I picked a more lenient ref in my next match and he gave a lot of advantages.
Overall, I really like the game and I'm sure most of us here will. I can't wait to try it online and eventually develop my Pro and join our club!
