They&#8217;ll just be able to pass it around your defenders and you&#8217;ll find yourself one-on-one with their top strikers every time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But that&#8217;s something we&#8217;ve got under review. If we think the vast majority of people hate it we&#8217;ll do something about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t tell you any more than that. I can&#8217;t tell you when that might happen, but we&#8217;re reviewing all the feedback from people. We&#8217;re looking especially, even harder, at the game telemetry. If you go to our forums and hear everyone saying the same thing, that&#8217;s great, but you can&#8217;t just rely on that because the people who haven&#8217;t got a problem with it aren&#8217;t talking. So we need to figure out what they&#8217;re doing as well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The first patch for the console version is expected to be released in the next 14 to 21 days.<\/p>\n<p>\n<object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"600\" height=\"335\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/jdOPl_8UGhk?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;rel=0\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"600\" height=\"335\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/jdOPl_8UGhk?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;rel=0\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/embed><\/object>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/forum\/showthread.php\/18602-FIFA-12-console-patch-to-drop-in-2-3-weeks\" target=\"_self\" title=\"FIFA 12 console patch out in 2-3 weeks\"><strong>FIFA 12 console patch out in 2-3 weeks<\/strong><\/a> &lt;&lt; Comments and views<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Update to fix exploits <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":161,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14510","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14510","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/161"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14510"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14510\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14510"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14510"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14510"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
