Thought a different thread for this
Hi everyone,First of all, we’d like to thank you all for your continued patience while we work on the latter stages of the FIFA 11 XBOX 360 and PS3 patch release. We’d like to update you about that, as well as share some information regarding an upcoming update for the FIFA 11 Ultimate Team downloadable mode.
– After months of hard work, the FUT 11 console dev team are happy to bring you the latest iteration of the mode earlier than ever and, for the first time, free of charge! Part of the process for getting the game into your consoles will be a downloadable game update for XBOX 360 users on November 1st, this prepares the game to receive the FUT DLC that will be made available on November 3rd. And PS3 users will be prompted to download an update that contains FUT on 3 November itself (although in some regions it may be available November 2nd). It’s important to note that in both cases the update you download will NOT address any FIFA 11 console issues, it only contains the FUT 11 game mode. Our certification submission with Microsoft and Sony for FUT started prior to FIFA 11’s launch and is a completely separate thing.
– While we don’t have the official date for the FIFA 11 console patch just yet, we can assure you it is coming soon; we’re looking at a mid-November time frame. This update will have many of the fixes you have all asked for. As it happens, we were able to get the patch submitted to Microsoft and Sony just after the FUT 11 update was approved, helping us to streamline that process and avoid any conflict between FUT 11 and FIFA 11 console.
Hmm depends. Basically offline has some probs (freezing, issues with player growth…)
Online – Head to head is pretty fine these days.
Online team clubs (which most of us here are for) Can be alright, can be a nightmare. Biggest problems – 3 second button lag, 5 second button lag, only some of your club mates keeping a connection. It really is very random who and when will get it. Some micro-pause issues too.Some people have a real issue with this game and the passing/some love the new harder passing.
If you have faith that EA will fix the lag issues then I would buy it and build up your Be A Pro in the mean time. But you might be better off waiting till after the patch and hearing if they’ve actually sorted it out.
I played over 1000 games on FIFA 10 but despite loving FIFA even I can’t be bothered playing this till they release the patch. Just too soul destroying.
Hope that helps?
Yup its def made my decision to keep my cash and spend it on summit worthwhile until they release an update/patch…
Pisses me off, they advertise a new DLC .. whats the fucking point in that if you cant even play the proper game!
I wrote on there FB wall about this, nobs!
Mine works fine.
Sometimes get slight stutters in head to head but everything else is fine.

As sane said i am playing on the ps3, so cant join unfortunately.
You would of thought by now that microshat and sony would bite the bullet and let both consoles link up and play against each other.You would of thought by now that microshat and sony would bite the bullet and let both consoles link up and play against each other.
Not while each is permitted to keep their audience captured, and there are people willing to pay them for the “internet” service they provide.
Ah Mes you know you’d have fun though if you got yourself an xbox on the cheap chalking up The Ringers games. It really is such a laugh.
FIFA 11 Patch – The Details
First of all, thanks once more for your patience while we’ve taken in all your feedback since the game’s launch. After we received your feedback, the process began to replicate and understand what you were seeing, and then get to work making improvements.
We’re now at the stage of that process where we are able to give you some more detail about what improvements to FIFA 11 you can expect. Sorry we’ve been a bit quiet on this stuff until now, but as you know we can’t really talk about these things until they’re locked down and confirmed.
The patch release dates are November 12th for PS3 and November 17th for Xbox 360.
Also, here’s an overview of the things we’ve done. If you have questions about anything you see here, or want more detail on anything in particular, feel free to post them in this thread and we’ll do our best to answer them.
GAMEPLAY
You’ll now find that the implementation of the offside rule in the game is more accurate, both in terms of when the infringement is called and in terms of player positions when it happens. Occasional strange player positioning at kick-off have also gone away, while shooting from weak volleys has been improved, too. Importantly, so-called ‘micro-pausing’ during gameplay will also be a thing of the past. Overall, your gameplay experience should now be even better.CAREER MODE
There are a lot of improvements you’ll notice here, which will all further boost the realism of the mode, but in summary: Your match fixtures during the season for cups and leagues, as well as the time of day they all happen, should now be much more realistic. We’ve also improved how accurately player ratings and growth are displayed, as well as making sure the players get the awards they deserve, when they deserve them. Using an odd exploit to secure a whopping $2 billion budget has now gone away, while the emails you receive as a manager will be more appropriate and players you’ve loaned out will now be easier to see and manage.ONLINE HEAD TO HEAD
Matchmaking will be enhanced, particularly in terms of initially connecting to an opponent, while we’ve removed a couple of exploits that people were using to gain an unfair advantage over their opponents. Also, players will now no longer be able to use Passing Power Assistance in ranked matches.ONLINE CLUBS
We’ve already made a lot of server-side improvements to the Clubs experience, particularly in terms of matchmaking, match results and progress in Cups. With the game update we’ll be making a range of improvements to stats and league-table presentation, too, as well as improving the camera motion when your player is a long way from the ball.PRESENTATION
You’ll now find that cut-scenes are improved during substitutions, along with a range of more subtle improvements around of the game.AUDIO
Creation Centre teams will now benefit from crowd chants, while we’ve improved the custom chants area as well. We’ve also managed to enhance a few audio triggers during gameplay, meaning you’ll get an even better atmosphere as things happen during a match.CREATION CENTRE
The general performance of the game when it involves teams and players created via the Creation Centre has been improved. Also, you’ll now find that the formations and attributes you set on the web will now transfer more accurately to the console.FIFA STORE
We’ve made sure that Live Season will be available for multiple users on the same console. Some people who had switched from an inactive XBL account to a Gold Account were having problems seeing the content of the store – we’ve got that covered, too.KITS
Lincoln City and Montpellier fans, your teams’ kits should now be right on the money.You’ll now find that the implementation of the offside rule in the game is more accurate, both in terms of when the infringement is called and in terms of player positions when it happens.
WTF is this? How can a computer not implement an accurate offside rule? Is this EA striking again or have they tried to create an accurate representation of the offsides given in practice, i.e. including mistakes?
