No GP patch can cure what ails FIFA ...

[RicFlair]

I totally appreciate all of your efforts on the GP patches - but none - and I mean no patch will ever cure what ails FIFA....and that is the "O" Button when defending..."the Conservative tackle button/ or the shooting button when you are attacking" Once you master the use of the "O" button - half the fun is sucked away.
when being attacked - even by Henry of RVn or Sheva etc you can run directly at them full speed while Holding down the button and steal the ball nearly everytime...it's sux. And you can't help yourself...you know it's unfair,unrealistic but it's instinct - if you use Man United v.s say Sunderland on a 16 min match you should pop 6-7 Goals, easily...Against say Arsenal - you should at least get 2 or 3 ...and this is using Biggy 2.5 ,which I know he's busted his A_ _ to make...
Don;t feel to bad - PES has the same glitch ...except it's the "X" button....same thing happens.
I played FIFA Online last nite and won 5 in a row....the opponents could barely move up field without me using the "O" button to rob them of ball....a few even quit ...

Well I had to Dl'd the unlocker to play on Legendary - while I didn't score as many - I felt very little attack.

I can only speak for myself and the game is much harder with the 2.5 settings and the CPU is more agressive offensively.

I think what happens though is that as a player you get better as well...so you're able to hold off the attack better and I attempt to try to control the game and possession alot more.

That holding down the O button doesn't work all the time. It makes you take bad angles sometimes. It just angles you into the general vicinity it seems, but On Legendary the CPU bobs and weaves more making it harder to run at them.

Nothing can fix whats broken about the inherent software however.
