| I suppose they couldn't have added comments to the download description warning people to expect unlicensed teams/fake names, but with a game like Fifa, you kind of expect it as standard. Haven't picked up Fifa 12 so I'll be avoiding this anyway. |

The teams may be expenive seperatly, but this add on is too expensive for me.
Especially as you can already play country vs countrybin the full game. Even set up my own custom tourney. Just an expensive new menu as far as i can see. |

The question I wanna ask the idiots at EA is, "why didn't you say this BEFORE you released it?".
To thosE who bought it, well I have no sympathy because you should've known EA would do this. I mean, its EA!!! |

What's next for EA? A shooter without guns or enemies, because it would have been too expensive to program them into the game?
Can't wait for their NBA reboot, maybe I can play as BeLorn Majes or Boke Rybant? Or Temma World War! |

| I was going to get this, but now I won't. That's shocking expecting us to pay for unlicensed teams in a LICENSED add on. Pathetic really. Probably the worst thing I've seen a game publisher do. |

woohoo EA bashing is fun, isn't it peeps?
At least they are being truthful and not just ignoring the whinging. Nobody is forcing you to buy it, i suppose it now explains why these things are normally on a disc at £39.99 ... seems weird if they can get the Team Licenses for Fifa 12 they don't just carry over onto this addon pack as it just an addon pack, not a fully fledged game.
It gives Fifa 12 fans an excuse to play more Fifa so it's not all bad. My brother says it's been fine so far, can't see me getting this addon pack though. |

#14 Said it best.
@15 - If they wanted to be "truthful" then they should've stated from the beginning that it contained unlicensed content. In a way, this is could be considered false advertising. |

This is the exact quote from when the expansion was announced by EA:
“recreate the passion and rivalry of the official tournament with all 53 UEFA member national teams, all eight official stadiums, and all the pageantry and atmosphere of one of the largest and most-watched sporting events on the planet.”
Notice it says "with all 53 UEFA member national teams".
Lies. |

| This is complete and utter dog shit. EA really blaming the cost and saying they dont have the cash to get all the teams. EA you lied to us, we all thought we were getting ''all 53 UEFA member national teams'' which turned out to not be as true as we all thought. I cant believe how they went about this and how it turned out. |

It seems like they had to have individual agreements with each and every team in order to license them. I can see how that would be costly. They've done this in the past with the previous Euro's with Holland and stuff and yet the outrage then wasn't nearly as bad/no outrage at all simply because it wasn't reported on.
I do hate the current trend of hating every single little thing. If you don't like it, don't play it - simple as. Don't come on here, expressing your anger at something you won't ever even play just to make yourself feel that extra bit more important today.
Oh and for the record - most of the 'unlicensed' teams are teams that no one is ever going to play as anyway so you're not even going to care/notice. |

I cannot urge everyone yet to pay for this to avoid this dlc. I have been buying EA games for years and have appropriately low expectations, but this dlc really is a new low. I am not prone to exaggeration and this should be kept in mind when reading my comments.
For all the complaints about server issues and unlicensed teams, my main gripe is the fact that you cannot play on-line with your friends. That's right - no friendlies, no leagues and no tournaments. I literally cannot fathom what EA were thinking with this - I can only assume it was an oversight through apathy on their part, as there is no obvious reason why they would remove this.
More fool me for not checking first, but this was such a basic feature in my mind that I didn't even entertain the idea that they may have removed it. Like many other Fifa players, I have no interest in playing the CPU, so all I am left with is a glitchy tournament mode playing against strangers.
An absolutely pathetic release - I cannot remember ever being angry at myself for buying a game / dlc before. Every Fifa game feels incomplete as it is, but this feels like they were not even trying.
Add to this the day one dlc issue with Mass Effect 3 and the various Battlefield issues (you can now pay to modify your own server - you know, like every other game does for free - and the game will kick you out if you are rotated into a map from a dlc pack you don't have) and I am struggling to think of a worse relationship I have had with a company than I currently do with EA.
If you read nothing else of my post, read this: please, PLEASE do not buy this dlc. |

my thoughts are that the dlc fundlemently isnt half bad am enjoying expidition mode would like to see more of it down the line
but yes the price is steep for what it is but it does have all 53 member nationtion but it doesnt say that they are offical or not so mute point
but i can see the arguement on the fact that it is an offical dlc so it should have officalness all over the shop
but look at it this way id rather pay 1800 msp for this then a full retail price that EA normally do every 2 years
see they learning a little not a lot jus a little |

Hey Hey Everybody........ just chill the hell out, who really cares is the teams from san marino and cyprus are fake. Most people play has one of about 12 teams anyways. Just deal with or dont buy it. No one understands that IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE and TIME CONSUMING TO GET LISCENCES for all 53 teams. If There would have been full liscencing, then it would not have been $22.50, it would have $60. Play the game because its good, not because of names.
I like this dlc especially expedition. It adds to the already great game, its more than just career mode where your best players always "want a change of scenery" and complain about playing time or teams ask ridiculous transfer prices for backup players at best. |
