The female teams better play vastly different than the mens teams like in real life. If this is just mens gameplay with female skins, then the game will suck,

Hopefully reviewers slam this game if the females don't play like females. It should feel like a completely different game.

Just like in every other sport. Take MMA for example. The heavyweights fight very different than the featherweights and different than the females. You can tell the difference.

So FIFA better make it realistic and not the same as mens soccer. There is a huge difference.

@stuff238: People that have played the game at press events have said the women's teams play different from the men's teams.

@dominoodle: On a series that prides itself on being realistic, it better not. And I hope reviewers slam the game if the females play exactly like the men.

The game is very different when females play it in real life and it should play different in the game.
