FIFA 13 Pro Clubs News
We were treated to some FIFA 13 Pro Clubs news during Gamescom by way of EASPORTSFIFA on Twitter.
(You can get our Virtual Pro Accomplishment Tracker here)
Here’s the run down:
#FIFA13 Clubs: Online Pro progression saved on the server, not save files. Bye-bye hackers!
— EA SPORTS FIFA (@EASPORTSFIFA) August 14, 2012
- Is this the end of hacked Pros that plagued the Xbox? Hopefully! Only time will tell…
Clubs: Online Pro for Clubs only: no more offline boosting. #FIFA13
— EA SPORTS FIFA (@EASPORTSFIFA) August 14, 2012
- Great for the purist and players with a lot of time on their hands – Bad for players with other commitments but still want to compete at the top.
Clubs: Tuning to Human GKs… no more fully assisted in Clubs, tuned attributes and accomplishments #FIFA13
— EA SPORTS FIFA (@EASPORTSFIFA) August 14, 2012
- Human goalkeepers are one of the best additions to FIFA for a long time but there’s no doubt they were overpowered. Hopefully this will go some way to making them more realistic.
Clubs: Now has Seasons format! No more confusing rank points/leagues. Get to Div 1! #FIFA13
— EA SPORTS FIFA (@EASPORTSFIFA) August 14, 2012
- Play for promotion and to avoid relegation. Make every game count! Will this mean they’ll be less picking and choosing of opponents or are teams more likely to back out if they’re facing promotion / relegation and they match up against a tough team?
#FIFA13 Clubs: Online Pro and CPU teammates stats based off real attributes from players in top leagues.
— EA SPORTS FIFA (@EASPORTSFIFA) August 14, 2012
- Overpowered AI or more in game realism. We’ll have to wait and see.
Clubs: Matchmaking allows you to filter ANYS and human goalkeepers to your preference #FIFA13
— EA SPORTS FIFA (@EASPORTSFIFA) August 14, 2012
- We understand that this will be automatic (like for like) rather than a searchable option. Should even the odds and make for more competitive matches.
Clubs: Maxed out Pros more realistic to real life players. Accomplishments and growth have been tuned #FIFA13
— EA SPORTS FIFA (@EASPORTSFIFA) August 14, 2012
- Sounds like you’ll have to think about how you want your Pro to turn out.
Clubs: AI teammates get better as your Club improves #FIFA13
— EA SPORTS FIFA (@EASPORTSFIFA) August 14, 2012
- God help us at the start of FIFA 13!
Clubs: Free Agent Hub allows you to play Drop-In Matches, looks at leaderboards etc. before joining a club #FIFA13
— EA SPORTS FIFA (@EASPORTSFIFA) August 14, 2012
- Looks promising – it’s always a challenge trialling players and risking losing that valuable, hard earned XP.
Unfortunately it doesn’t look like we’ll be getting club customisation this year but I’m sure Pro Clubs fans won’t mind what with all the other additions.
All in all a positive step in the right direction for arguably one of the most realistic game modes in FIFA 13 and much more Pro Clubs news than we’re used to getting this time of year.
Clubs fans, let us know what you think. Are the new additions what you were expecting or did you have other ideas?
