How would you rate this (from 0-10) compared to the next gen style of gameplay and pes09?

ciao

That's what I need to know. Does this make the PC version of Fifa 09 even approach Fifa 08 NG?

Test it and make your own picture of that.
Everyone have his own and other opinion of something. The first one say absolutly great and the next person say, that this is the biggest rubbish.

Really good gameplay patch. Noticed it made the game feel a bit like FIFA 07 (which is a GOOD thang y'all)

My only other observation is that the players get fatigued very quickly ?

I think your problem is the language line in the locale.ini (@ config.dat) file.

That's the default lines of Germoretto's patch:
[OPTIONS]
DEFAULT_TEXT_LANGUAGE = fre
INSTALL_LANGUAGE= fre

[]
AVAILABLE_LANGS = eng,fre,ger,ita,dut

I have the central europen version and it can't run with this settings. I changed the languages and it's run.
I hope you can understand :blush:

yeah bro it works now, but i have a question for the maker(congrats btw cause i love the gameplay now):

-i noticed in the game and by the use of Creation Master that some players have now other boots than default or faces changed, stadiums imported and this kinda stuff. is there a way to bring them back to default? cause for example if i dont have a stadium installed in my game i clearly ****s up the game :icon_spin:

Your patch is very good, so realistic
But i don't like only ball physics - it is not realistic because moving so fast and become slower (slow down) very late
therefore very hard to catch ball after long passes - even it so direct
Hope you understand me and will change it :read:

The run movements must be rounder.

Please NOOOOO. I hate PES just because of this one thing! Otherwise PES RAPES FIFA anyday

I still have to try this so we'll see, but I think it is great you have made somethnig like this. If only we had someone for Cricket 09!

@ Soccom
what happened to you is mainly the reason why my file should be considered mostly like an open experiment, rather than a install-and-play package. Unfortunately, changing numeric formulas for stats modifications sucks so bad, it takes sooo many time, and honestly I don't even remember how many modifications I've introduced.

@ dRjB723
Yes, long passes need work, specially once the ball bounces (to me at least).

@ musama
You couldn't be more right.

@ santups18
Gracias a vos!

what happens to all the new leagues that patchers make? like will they still be faster and stuff or will they get changed by this patch aswell

very nice gameplay...but one thing i think should be fixed is the ball physics i.e. the ball seems to be a bit sticky....it does not move freely along the ground...

Hello, I tried your patch and I must say that in general the patch is very good. I have a few small requests in case you plan a third version of the patch.

1) One thing I don't like about Fifa 09 is that the players can't seem to control the ball and remain on the spot they receive the ball. I mean, if you try to pass the ball to a player, as soon as he receives the ball he will start running towards the direction where the ball is coming from. That's not realistic at all. This happens especially in the midfield and it is really annoying because you usually have to correct this as this is usually not the direction you want to head to. There is some way to avoid this, by pressing the pace control button (or is it the other one where you perform all the tricks, i'm not sure what each button is called, i play with the keyboard and i have set my own custom keys?) as then the player turns around with the ball and immediately initiates a run towards the opposite side from the one he receives the ball, but this is not positive either cause that's usually where the defender stays (on your player's back when he receives the ball).

I mean even when the ball has gone outside, and i'm about to carry out a goal kick, if i just pass the ball to the defender and without pressing any other button the defender initiates a run towards my own goal as soon as he receives the ball which is stupid and unrealistic. So what I'm trying to say is that I would love it if you could fix this in one of your future patches by making the player just controlling the ball he receives without initiating a run by himself.

2) I used to be a fan of pro evolution soccer until pro 6, but after last year's flop i've given up on pro and this year i decided to try fifa instead. Although I do enjoy some aspects of this year's Fifa more than the latest pro, I do feel there's one aspect that pro is better than Fifa, and that is through passes. I was wondering if you could do anything about them. This is what I'm talking about:

In Fifa you can only make straight passes. Straight up, left, right, bottom, or diagonally. So if I were to depict this somehow using my keyboard that would be something like this (P1 is the player, the lines show the direction of the passes he can make, P2 is another teammate):

--P2
_\_|_/
__\|/
--P1--
__/|\
_/_|_\

Now that's ok, but say I want to pass to P2 and there's a defender standing between me and him (so the straight pass to the top is blocked) and if there is a defender some meters ahead of him the diagonal pass is also prohibited. Pro addresses this by introducing the through pass, that is if i point upwards with my keyboard i can either press the short pass (in which case the ball goes directly to my teammate upwards) or i can press a through pass and send it upwards but the ball would not go straight to my teammate, it would be passed somewhat ahead of the teammate I'm pointing to. So when you press the through pass the ball goes to the spot where the asterisk is in my (admiteddly crappy) diagram

--P2 *
_\_|_/
__\|/
--P1--
__/|\
_/_|_\


In Fifa however straight is the only way, and through passes, are not really through at all. If you could address this then this patch would be absolutely legendary :)

3) I know that you meant well when you increased the difficulty level of the keepers (I also like football games where the score is not 7-5 in 10 minutes) but now they are difficult to the extent that it is not realistic either. I mean no football team would not score at least 2 or 3 goals if they had 10 chances 1 vs 1 with the keeper. I'm all for low scores but because the defense really works hard and does not let me reach the area alone so easily and not because they have some goalie with superhuman abilities. So I'd prefer it if it was more difficult to create 1 vs 1 chances with the keeper but easier to finish them when these chances would occur (as it is in real football).

I'm looking forward to more patches from you in the future.
