Football with heart and referee ...

FIFA 11 is, as might be expected, a mere football match. There are over the "Action mode" (quick game) and additionally the "Manager Mode". Within which are located a regular season with one of hundreds of clubs in Europe that can be played. In addition, there is the "Be a Pro" mode. Here you can create your own player (eg yourself) go through with this and whose career ... however limited to 4 Saisons.
The game is graphically very impressive as well as the stress test here! As the players move and look absolutely realistic. In career mode (where you control a club), the possibilities are limited, however. You can set up his team (relatively confusing though still space was there), change the formation (conditional) and set the tactics (not really significant). In addition, you can in the transfer market to offer its players and new buy. There is still a scout looking for talent on the various continents. Here you can not see though the player's actual strength, but on the content of what he calls one sees quite clearly how good the player is.
On the whole, it was already. You can even "enhance staff" be, but otherwise you can "just" play.

In the game, the graphics are good and it comes right mood. However, "Tom Bayer" and "Sebastian Hellmann" are extremely annoying! During an attack on the flank, they comment on the game as follows: Tom: "Now he would have to actually send a cross" The player crosses into the box. Tom: "What a strong edge!" The ball is decapitated head by the defender away. Tom: "What a weak flank, or Sebastian?". Sebastian: "Yes Tom, he just has to make short jump up and nod He must really can..!"
In such dialogues it switches like the sound off, but then learns not also a player has been injured.
In the game itself, arrows are displayed where the player is just one has been selected on the sidelines. Unfortunately, the arrows are not always exactly where the player is. Much more important were the arrows at the places where the other players are about. So sometimes you are a pass into the void because the striker just did not want to play on position and is staying in the defense. For such Spielkram the image detail is too small!
In addition, the behavior of their own players is partially very kurrios. To leave the absolute perfect position to let coincide the opponent. Or the ball is played by the opponent and suddenly changes the selected player. Mostly you find yourself suddenly even at an absolutely stupid position. Here EA must take care urgently drum. Most goals conceded I start me because my players constantly change and the remaining defense only plays along when I control ... for that I need to pay 4 defender ...

The difficulty, of course, adjustable. However, as so often difficult to find the right one for yourself is. The easiest is to quickly easily. So you win with a team like St. Pauli in the very first season the championship trophy. The second degree is already a whole piece of heavy and can actually play quite well. Moreover, it should not go, even if the front is too light. From here EA did not feel like the players to make difficult but has been limited to goalkeeper explain the incredible aerobatics. Elsewhere EA has put the referee just difficult. Not only that he overlooks fouls the opponent, no well off and throw-ins go in favor of the opponent. In addition, we collected a lot easier, and thereby also more cards of any color. Sometimes you will be stopped with an emergency brake and not even get a free-kick. Andersrum you get happy ever red card when you go to the duel and even makes. This is very frustrating and reduces the fun enormous! I've actually always liked heavy opponents and also like to lose, but a referee of the rules does not know or apply the wrong has nothing to do with difficulty!

So has a really great game so his little mistake in the details. These errors diminish the gameplay though not significantly, but nerves already partially. In addition, a manager mode would be appropriate where you can do more except the establishment and some transfers ...
