I'll pop down into chichester town centre on the release day and complain to the store owner about the saints ratings. I'm sure that will somehow lead to EA updating the stats to something more palatable...
Dan, can you find something out for me please. I like to give players their proper boots to make game realistic, then EA do a squad update and they're bak to their default boots an ratings. Is this going to be the same irritating and annoying case in FIFA 12??
It will - I don't know if there's any way to make it otherwise, EA squad updates replace all player models with the new updated ones - updated appearances, attributes etc. I'd suggest you contact them and ask if it's possible for them to ever be able to release a squad update that doesn't have an effect on boots but it's unlikely.
Ah damn... Cheers Dan. You should rename yourself the EA Insider Well the first thing I wanna do is start a Career Mode, so I wanna know when they're gna do a squad update :/...
The only thing the workers on the level of my mate have been told is "within the first few days" but I've heard elsewhere it's the very first day out, I hope more information becomes available nearer the time though. Annoying having to wait to start a career mode but if they're releasing a game without fully completed squads (?!) then there's not much choice but to wait.
Sorry I can't be of more help, but I don't even work there myself so I have no chance Can only go on what my mate tells me, and he doesn't know much
Just thought I would share my Ultimate Team for Fifa 12 and give you all some idea about the ratings. The only special Silver players we have this year is De Ridder and Lamber, personally Im suprised that Lallana isn't but still has a good rating. Tried to get Lambert but was outbid last minute (rated 70)! Kelvin Davis 69 Danny Fox 68 Fonte 69 Hooiveld 69 Richardson 64 Cork 70 Lallana 71 Spiderman 67 Guly 67 Connolly 67 Barnard 67
UT is apparently different to the final ratings. Ye Dan, I hope there is an update on the day of launch, it would make much more sense
Lallana has to be at least 73!! Fonte 70 and Top scorer Lambert 71-72, west ham are all gold and high silvers!
Lallana has 3* skill moves, deary me. Lambert has 75 FK acc, 66 Curve and 81 Power. Pathetic. On a side note, I already have every Saints player on UT.
For those interested in the illegal way of playing FIFA (I'm not so don't contact me asking how, I don't know ) there are leak downloads available somewhere.
Believe me, if I could I would It's okay for me though - moving into uni so most of my play will be offline vs friends in person rather than over LIVE, so I can make the ratings fair
Working at ASDA yesterday eve and noticed a sheet of paper detailing the delivery of FIFA 12 in-store. The games will start arriving on the 26th in blue cases marked Entertainment.
