I was extremely critical of the gameplay of 07/08 as in neither game game, the most skilled player would be able to win consistently.

But I have been playing this game online since thursday and am loving it more and more. I can acually play the game my style and it rewards it. Quick 1 touch passing, counterattacking and am absolutely rolling players who have had this game since release. My last 10 games Ive scored an average of 5 in each.

I never changed my gamestyle since 04 which was based on the same quick 1 touch passing and quick vision and I domintated in that game too.

I still see some people trying to use 08 tactics of the longball.

This is not to say that every long term player is a noob, some give me a good game and I'm impressed with the way they play too but I still come out on top in the end (so far). But most play like noobs, are extremeley predictable and then rage quit after 5-0.

I just need to learn how to be a bit more clinical infront of goal and how to take set pieces and I'll be even more unstoppable. Too bad there's no practice mode.

Question... That number by your online name is that experience points or something? Mine is very low since I just started but I see others range from 5000 - 800,000.
