gamescom – FIFA 13 Videos *Updated*

We all love shakey over the shoulder low res videos right? RIGHT?

Well it’s that time of year again! gamescom, where amateur videographers gather en mass to troll the FIFA community with gameplay footage for us to dissect and argue about until the demo releases.

We’ll keep them all in one place this year, so keep checking back for updates. If you find any we’ve missed drop a link in the comments and we’ll add it to the post.

We’ll start off with one that people who watched the conference will be familiar with, showing off some of the new match intros nicely as well as some of the new audio. It’s cobbled together from yesterdays event. Thanks to sandman in the comments for the link.

Next up KSIOlajidebt managed to grab some footage. Pretty lengthy. Not watched it all yet but thought we’d get this post moving seeing as everyone wants to see the game so badly.

    Again same people complaining “how unrealistic the players run, pass, shoot, dribble”, that “omg there is no sense of inertia/momentum”, “its too fast arcadey and its made for kiddies to exploit and abuse different situations”, “blah,blah,blah”…

    Jesus, for once can’t you make the difference between reality and games ? Does it have to mimic reality 100% to please you ? Only then you’ll be having fun ? Would you feel better if it’s 100% accurate with the “real deal”.

    I don’t get you people. Games are made to be fun, to be enjoyable, not frustratingly difficult, or “too realistic”. Everyone craves for realism both in terms of graphics and physics/animations and forget about the essence of gaming, of games in general.

    I don’t want realism, too much realism takes away the fun, the entertainment the magic of games. I live in a real world, when I’m playing a video game I want to forget about it for a few minutes or hours, not to struggle with the same problems. I want to detach myself from reality and entertain myself by playing a game.

    Remember how fun and simple were games years ago, now is the race for realism, realism, and we get war FPS and games that play and look like interactive movies.

    I can hardly tell the difference between this and FIFA 12 if I’m honest

    Despite EA always going on about FIFA being a football simulation game, people have to realise that it just isn’t… Over the years FIFA has turned into a ‘sport’ of its own, yes it doesn’t play exactly like real life football, but that’s because it isn’t real football. FIFA is meant to fast paced, action packed and full of glitched players flying 30 yards across the pitch.

    If you want to play football grab a ball and some boots and get down the local park.

    @Someone

    Some criticism is valid, FIFA isn’t a perfect game. When people complain about lack of inertia they’re 100% spot on. Do you know what the genre of FIFA is called? Football simulation. Of course it doesn’t need to mimic reality by 100%, that’s actually impossible. But at least, try to replicate basic core mechanics of football. Go play FIFA 08 or PES 5, these were FUN games and at the same time had good inertia/locomotion models. It’s not against fun. You need the CPU defender to think like a human and find it difficult to switch his momentum to cope up with your run-exploding controlled player. This is football, dude.

    Anyway, another new video. This time it’s on PS3 with decent play style from both of the gamers. I’m noticing several cool and new animations for crossing, passing, and shooting. One of the best videos released so far, imo. Can’t wait for the demo:

    I don’t get why some are so desperate about this “inertia/momentum” thing, to me it only makes the game much more frustrating and less fun.

    For instance PES 12 and 13 have it, and it’s so frustrating when you pass the ball to a play and he is with his back against the opposing net, then hi has to turn around to begin the attack, looses speed and it gets really frustrating.

    Or when I pass and the player to whom I pass slows down to get the ball and the ball passes next to him, another frustrating thing, and it happens really often.

    If some complain that fifa “is not a simulation”, because it’s “too fast”, PES because of this “great core mechanics” it’s really slow and unresponsive, its like you’re controlling some middle aged footballers. I honestly wouldn’t want that.

    Fifa just like PES is a simulation game, because it simulates the game of football, you have 22 players on the pitch, the rules are the same, you pass, dribble, cross, shoot, attack and defend just like in the real thing. If it doesn’t get the physics perfectly that doesn’t make it less of a football game.

    Try to enjoy it for what it is. I can’t wait for the demo.

    @no_matter

    PES 12 and 13 inertia/momentum isn’t perfect because while it works greatly it still suffer from stiffness due to the poor animations in the game. The rigidness/unresponsiveness is a result of poor animations not inertia. If PES had FIFA animations or the opposite if FIFA had PES inertia, it would give birth to a very authentic and great gameplay off football simulation.

    Its nice that they Drogba celebrations when he is not in the game.

    Video in Spanish, but nice visual explanation/analysis of improved attacking a.i. of the gamescom videos:

    PES has had inertia/momentum since the PS2 days and it is a disgrace that in 2012 FIFA still doesnt support it.
    FIFA is turning into COD with little to no improvements every year.

    This is why in FIFA, every player changes direction like they are boneless chickens with zero weight

    @Mez

    Fifa this year is much more different then fifa 12. Way better AI, first touch control which makes the game even more unpredictable, improved presentation, match atmosphere due to better commentary, better more immersive career mode, improved online games etc…

    Also fifa every year brings new animations for shooting,passing, dribbling. What has PES done this year ? Not much, PES 2013 plays almost like PES12.

    PES falls in that “COD” category not fifa. But hey it has “momentum”, players have “weight”, that makes “the difference” go play PES.
