I'd like to keep this a debate as opposed to an argument so i'd like to keep the motto: This is just my humble opinion, but i disagree with the majority there
The stats always seem failry accurate to me. At least the basics. Speed, stamina, strength, shot power/curl/accuracy. In proevo alot of the players feel the same, in Fifa they all seem similar to their real-life counterparts
the tricks and the tricks stick are hugely fun and hugely effective....when you get used to them. Fifa isn't really a pick up and play game (unless you've played it for years and years) It take comitment. I use very few tricks, but when they come off it's very satisfying.
I would agree that the player faces could be better, but to say they are embarassing is slightly ober the top. That's one of the few complaints i would have about Fifa!
If they had the basics right, that wouldn't be a problem.. But fact is that the basics are not properly covered, considering that Ronaldinho makes a better defender than John Terry, and is just as touch in the midfield.
Speed, Acceleration, Dribbling Accuracy, Stamina, etc, etc, This cannot be labeled as "the basics" considering the basics of Football involve much more than that, Football isn't just about athleticism.
Are there any Stats for each players Defensive Positioning, Attacking runs, Midfield runs, etc, etc..
As for the Dribbling Tricks, I think they are hugely limiting. It shouldn't be about pulling off outrageous dribbling moves that wouldn't work in real life, it shouldn't be about mastering complicated controls.. It should be about timing simple controls right, simple and yet effective controls.
Simple controls so that you can actually Think about When and How to use them, rather than just mastering the right stick.
