Don't lie to yourself, you would buy it anyways. Simply because it is far superior to PES :D. Don't get me wrong, I love to hate on EA for shitty iterations, but I have to give credit where credit is due, and they have always 1up'ed Pro Evolution Soccer in every single regard since FIFA 07 imo.
I reckon PES and FIFA are actually pretty close on a pure gameplay level right now. In fact I'd put PES slightly ahead for my personal preference.
I picked it up on the cheap during a steam sale, and the PES gameplay just feels more like football. Hard to describe, but you actually have to work hard to create opportunities, using proper build up play. Contrast to FIFA, where I can buy a pacey winger with good finishing and basically tear every opposition apart.
That said, PES does lose on almost every other aspect. I've always enjoyed FIFA's Career Mode more than Master League (except for one PES iteration a few years back, can't remember what one it was now), and these new changes are bloody nice.
I just hope FIFA's gameplay becomes a little less arcade-y. Would make the game amazing for me.
Same. This sub has opened my eyes to many of the issues in CM, things that have gone unattended to for several editions. But I still love it and play all the damn time.
These additions sound great and really looking forward to it - knowing it won't be perfect, and every issue we've griped about on this sub for nearly a year won't be addressed. Yet.
If you vary between training endurance(stamina) and pace, problems should be fixed , no ? I have no time getting Fifa coins ( agility, balance, reaction and strength, its always the 50acceleration 58sprint speed strikers with 97 balance 89 agility and 94 strength that bother me).
They look like pretty decent changes. One questions I just need to ask, not regarding these changes, is will the stadiums from teams that got relegated still be in the game? Eg. Burnley, Norwich and QPR? Also got some more improvements I'd like but I've forgotten them completely.
