In that case, he has to remove Kosovo from the game because Serbia doesn't recognize them as a country. Spain doesn't recognize Gibraltar as an independent country, so he has to remove Gibraltar too. I mean, come on. It's ridiculous. Just left the politics outside FIFA and football. If the official name of the country accepted by FIFA is "FYR Macedonia", it should be called like this, not Skopje, Northern Macedonia or whatever you want to call it.

I'm trying to be as apolitical about this as I can. I can rename it FYR Vardar or FYR Skopje, if that's ok? Also, even if I do this, the five stadium announcers in English, French, Spanish, German & Italian refer to the national team as "Macedonia" - without any prefix. This is something absolutely impossible to physically change in the soundbanks.
Are we seriously bringing politics into this now? I mean if it was an EA official update we would have to deal with the names they put and that's it!
Robbie if you put them as FYR Vardar or FYR Skopje I'll just go on CM 16 and change it to what FIFA and UEFA calls the country: FYR Macedonia.
But it's like gormond said, what if now everyone gets offended by these things? Next we know some Palestinian doesn't want Israel to be in the patch or vice-versa
And I don't want to offend pao4ever at all but if we are aiming for "realism" here, we should have official country names as they are recognized by the organizations that actually organize country competitions...
Just my 2 cents.

There is no such a thing.
So its your personal issue then? With all do respect, do you even realise how you sound right now? Hysterical. Unreasonable. And all that with little to no reason.
Its football. Get over politics.

No, please!!
By "FIFA" I meant the video game. And yes, football has nothing to do with politics.
Stop acting like a child, mate. You're an adult. This is an extortion. Robbie is trying to make a patch and you are forcing him to change one fucking name or you won't provide your edited stuff. It's OK if you don't want to cooperate, but using this in order to make politics it's wrong.

Do you remember the phrase of Batman "it's not about money, it's about sending a message"? A game forum, an cafe, a TV show, a political scene, a concert stage... no matter where this conversation would ever happen, the point would always be one: I will never tolerate in sharing my homeplace's name with these people either in a video game menu or an international convention. And no, I'm not a child. I hate this situation since FIFA 98, where I saw this propaganda for the first time

I have a question if romania and republic of moldova is united the national team is romania and moldova republic ?
It's OK, it's your opinion. But Robbie is working on a mod for a video game, and everything should be realistic. So if FIFA call this country "FYR Macedonia", the name of this country in the mod should be "FYR Macedonia", not Skopje. If you are watching a match on the TV which involves this country, the official FIFA scoreboard will say "FYR Macedonia". Sorry, but this is the truth.
And what you are doing is propaganda too, "change the name of this country or I won't let you to use my stuff". That's extortion. Imagine if someone's a FC Barcelona fan and goes like "change the rating of Messi to 99 or I won't let you to use my stuff". You can think that Messi deserves a 99 OVR, that's fine, but forcing others to do that and think the same with you it's ridiculous.
