Re: Re: Turkish football
im from austria/klagenfurt and i have to agree with you! austria league sucks a lot!
maybe the guys from EA think the people from austria play austrian league! thats not right. we are more interested in the german or italian football than in our. better to put some leagues away and make better things! turkish league would be good!

i agree with those body movement. but fifa gameplay was too slow. player spend too much time on first touch, example you first touch the ball and the opponent defender are a meter away from you but they able to beside you after you control the ball and start to move. this is terrible and shouldn't be happen in real life, hope they do made as their slogan said "a great player, must have a great first touch"
and another thing is please please please, player stats do make differents.....
and another thing is please please please, player stats do make differents.....
pes has good running when ur jostling, the players crawl and **** and they push each other and lean forward to keep possesion
ive played fifa for 5 years and as soon as pes came out for pc i decided to try it and now i sh it on fifa because i get more fun out of pes than i ever did in fifa

faster interface
-for me the interface was still too slow and not user friendly either
faster in game menu
-in euro2004 it was the most crapy menu i ever see
better and logical first touch
-player are no way to first touch the ball in the air by left leg and shoting by right leg at the same time (gosh~~this happen in fifa2004 and euro2004)
better passing
-i press down and pass, please do pass down not other direction
player stats do make different
-please please please...this is very important. i don't hope see henry or cristiano ronaldo chase up by a very low stats defender. and player stats are too few. a player only can rated by few things??? and also same as keeper
set pieces
-please please again, randomize it. let user control what they want. it was too crap the corner that we only able to choose 3 players in the box and other players in the box just like a stupid, stand and look. freekick please make sense a bit. that is almost impossible to have direct shot in some angle and randomize it. freekick not always mean must direct freekick
keeper
-in euro2004, chip shot and fake shot are useless, the keeper never come out, so it never works. hear nice but useless. if keeper have ai, please make it clever. it able to stop powerful shot in 12 yards but why not he make a easy catch when a player shot from outside of the box with a very slow shot?
computer ai
-please please again, make them clever a bit. different level doesn't mean the player clossing down speed. for me, they still too stupid.
kit texture
-for me, some look really really bad
dribbling
-i hate every time want to get pass a player by using shift key. i rather using arrow key plus sprint to get pass a player than using a shift key. so please make the gameplay more randomize, and their defend are always in perfect position, no matter what you do, they just stand there and look. make me look like a dumb
UCL, UC, WC, EURO
-those cup are important. it is always good if EA can get those lisence. and also group stage bugs, please fix..
boots, ball
-lisenced boots and ball. actually i quite hate EA ball, it look bad. but this is extra. if can get are always better. if can't just work hard on gameplay
weather
-not everyday sunny day
career mode
-i doesn't like the transfer option. the value of the player are weird. and also we unable to change the player number. this is i hated most. training are useless.....it doesn't not affect much or i should said i can't see any changes....
cc
-do hope creation center included
testing
-hope EA test and play the game before release to lesser the bugs. if they found the game was too bored and not worth to have it. please don't release and waste our money...

GOALPOSTS!!!!!!
PLEASE!!!!!
Can we get rid of the same old huge, boxy style goals with hexagonal mesh and make the goals relative to the stadium and/or the teams colours your playing as.
Its no good seeing the same white coloured net when in real life the stadium your playing in has a blue striped one that isnt as big and boxy (also the stanchions that hold the net up at the back are sometimes different colours and styles).
That sh1tty Uefa Champions League Game a couple of years ago had completely different goal styles in all the different stadiums (it was the only saving grace for the god forsaken "game"!)
Also make the stands in the stadiums as near to the pitch as they are in real life.
All fifas have Old Trafford, Anfield etc. miles away form the pitch behind the goals when these stadiums must be the nearest to the goals in the premiership.
PES3 has got it spot on with Stamford Bridge and sort of with Anfield.
I realise these suggestions wouldnt win any prize for innovation but they are something id love to see in an already classic game (bar some of the robotic gameplay)!!!
ITS ALWAYS THE LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT!!

(1) Bring back the radar.. why it got taken away is beyond me
(2) Skill moves..
(i) don't random it... skill moves done by skills (well key combinations), not press a button and hope the comp will random something cool..
(ii) if you are going to highlight it by slowing the player down, please slow down the other players in the game too.. in Euro2004, you can go past one player, but then you take forever to regain control of the player and by the time you do, the other defenders are surrounding you.. maybe the skill move not very useful
(iii) be able to chain the moves together.. eg. C. Ronaldo in FA final...
(3) Passing system.. when i press up, i mean up.. not backwards, diagonal, or forward!
(4) Shooting system.. top players do not take that long to shoot the ball.. quit making Henry and Van Nisterroy lose the ball when they are midway through shooting!
(5) Keeper-Goal ratio.. more realism please.. also, keepers are not superman... Barthez cannot fly horizontally sideways across half the face of the goal..
Other members in the team.. please give them some intelligence! Soccer is a 11 man game.. please make the others move/DEFEND instead of sitting there waiting for the user to control them!
(7) Freekicks... noone will directly shoot at goal when the FK is near the corner flag
(8) When i am training/practising in career mode, make it more meaningful..
(9) computer teams buy and sell players
(10) Make players improve and get worse as years in career mode go by.. make one season diff to the next (new players in other teams in teh league, player stats changing)
(11) This is done in Euro2004, PLEASE do not take it away.. stats make a difference, regardless of the difficulty level! It is the most annoying thing in Fifa2004... when a guy with speed of 90 run to defend against someone dribbling with speed of 50.. make the difference in stat obvious!
(12) More stats would be nice, but not vital
Anyways, that was my dozen, hope at least some of them would be implemented in 2005...

I feel that weather is very important since they said they wanted to put it in FIFA 04, thats should be one of the big priorities this time around.
Multiplayer mode with more than 8 players. 8 just isnt enough,
and bring back the league option that u had in FIFA 03
Add the Turkish league, and Argentine league.
Im going to list teams they should add to the game, that were not in FIFA 2004 (not counting turkish teams and argentine league teams cuz i said they both should be added)
AEK Athens (Greece)
Slavia Praha (Czech Rep.)
Dynamo Kyiv, Shakhtar, and Dnipro (Ukraine)
Maccabi Haifa and Maccabi Tel-Aviv (Israel)
CSKA, Lokomotiv, and Spartak Moskva (Russia)
Crvena Zvezda and Partizan (Serbia & Montenegro)
Hajduk and Dinamo Zagreb (Croatia)
Dinamo, Steaua, and Rapid Bucuresti (Romania)

- Much better gameplay
- I was very happy to see Eyal Berkovic's face, please add more israeli players faces.
- Indoor mode
- Dynamic weather(please add Snow)
- Radar
- More realistic Goal keepers
- A new corner kick mode(that the player will be able to curve the ball, lob it or pass it without that box which tells you what to select)
- An ingame editor!
These are my updated requests....Please think about including them in the game.

Here's my VERY comprehensive wish-list of improvements for FIFA 2005. Some of the stuff has been said before, but its stuff that matters to me too.
LIST
====
1) Add Holland national team.
2) Add the Saudi Arabian national team. Yes, I know, they're not a force to be reckoned with on the world stage, but they're a major force in Asia that has stayed at the top for the last 20 years. If winning 3 out 5 Asian Cup titles and playing in each of those finals is not an accomplishment, I don't know what is. And I don't think they would charge an arm and a leg like the KNVB either...
3) Oh, please don't get rid of the Turkish national team. I usually notice that as soon as I start getting too happy about something, its gone. And please bring back the Turkish League, or at least two of the other big Turkish Clubs, Fenerbahce SK (current Turkish league champs) and Besiktas JK.
4) Add more national teams in general- there's not enough in Fifa 2004. If EA Sports can't get licenses to authentically represent / recreate some of those teams, put in generic teams with fake names and generic kits. Not the best scenario, but at least that way, all we have to do is remake the kits and retouch the stats, instead of having to replace one national team to add another (like the patch with Holland replacing Urugauy).
5) Speaking of retouching stats, please bring back the in-game creation center where we can fix faces, change numbers and change stats, change kits (or at least colors, in case of generic kits).
6) Ability to buy players from any team / league.
7) Ability to set up custom tournament / league - international or club, group/elimination or elimination, one-or-two leg games, etc. This can still be done in Fifa 2004, with clubs, but I don't want to have to edit the teams in the FA Cup to play a best-of-europe tourney. I like to have the ability to make my own league with all my favorite world clubs.
8) I don't know why, but sometimes, I could have my player facing one direction and i hit pass and instead of passing to the player straight in that direction, it will pass the ball to someone who's standing 25 degrees off that direction. That's very frustrating. And maybe it's just me, but the throughpass in Fifa 2004 seems pointless and completely ineffective.
9) Please make it not as easy to score from 30 yards out. It's good once in a while, but it gets really boring quick, and I get pissed at people who don't even make the effort to build a good attack and just take shots from way out hoping to get lucky (and then they do, like 3 times in a game!)
11) A lot of the stuff in FIFA 2004 is locked into the career mode. I'd like to be able to do all that stuff outside that mode too.
12) When I start a career mode with a big team like AC Milan, I'd like to be playing in a European tournament instead of having to wait one season to earn that right.
13) Add Penalties to practice mode. I know penalty kick techniques haven't changed much over the years in the game, but I'd like to be able to get a feel for it.
14) Also, something is very wrong with team ratings, when 15 weeks into the season, Modena is second in Serie A and Juventus is lying in a lowly 15th. It gets further frustrating that my 4th placed AC Milan beat Modena 3-1 with ease, while Juventus schooled me 5-1. A team in 15th place can't possibly be playing that good. In all fairness to EA Sports, my opponents usually play as well as they should in real life when I have a match with them, but the simulated match results for the computer controlled teams are just too weird. A shock every once in a while is fine.
15) I don't want to have to play 2 other Italian clubs in my Champions League group besides AC Milan. It doesn't happen that way.
16) Okay, here's what else doesn't happen in real leagues, or especially Serie A. You don't play the same team back to back in league match-ups (not talking about two leg playoff games). Usually in a league, you play each team once before you go around and face them again. Back to back matches with the same team may happen in the NBA regular season, but not in European soccer.
17) I'm curious if Football Fusion is just on the PS/2 version, or if it's on the PC version too. I'm in the US, and I bought FIFA Soccer 2004 (which I expect would be the exact same product as FIFA Football 2004, just titled differently for marketing purposes), and I don't have Football Fusion (or even Soccer Fusion) for that matter. Why not?
18) Along the same lines, this one's for the folks at EASports.com who run the US Fifa Soccer website- STOP TREATING AMERICAN CUSTOMERS LIKE THE BASTARD STEPCHILD! We deserve a comprehensive website too. The UK website is filled with news, helpful stuff and better graphics, while the American website is just a drab, near static webpage. I pay just as much money to EA Sports to buy their games, so be fair to us.
19) When my winger / midfielder is going down the wing (running or sprinting, say down the right wing) and I try to cross the ball or lob it in the box with 'A', I hate it when he lobs it straight out of the pitch, instead of crossing left into the box. I mean STRAIGHT!
20) Right after the corner animation stops (when the taker places the ball), I'd like to be brought back to my camera mode. It sucks when the corner is played and the ball is deflected and I am hitting buttons blindly because I don't know where to clear the ball because I can't see the rest of my players.
21) How about some flags on the corners?
22) Some animated substitutions please. I'd like to see one guy come on and the other guy leave.
23) A lot of the music in the game is stuff that people in the US have never heard. How about having music that the average american listens to for Fifa SOCCER 2005?
24) Like someone else said, I'd like to be able to see my entire squad on one screen when I'm selecting my team, instead of only being able to see 8 of them at a time. Also, I'd like to be able to position my players when I choose a formation. Like move them around a little if I choose 4-2-4 so two of my forwards are spread really wide.
25) In career mode, the way the stats section is organized is RETARDED! I can see who my team's top scorers are, but there's no LEAGUE TOP SCORERS / BOOKINGS section. That stuff matters more than what my shooting average is. Again, this is soccer, not basketball. And by default, how about sorting by goals scored? All this stuff used to be in your older games, so it's frustrating cuz it feels like you guys took a step backwards!
26) When I'm seeing the league standings / table, I'd like to be able to see at least the following on one screen (P-W-D-L-Pts). Its nice that you have it further broken down into home games and away games and all, and I don't mind scrolling for it, but the basic stuff needs to be on one screen.
27) I like to be able to go back and see my results from previous games in a list, instead of having to scroll back and forth on a calendar, and also be able to see how the other teams did in their respective matches. In other words, have a RESULTS section.
28) PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, make the menus better. Take your pick from any of your older games, I've never had a problem with the menus until this year.A lot of the above can be summed up with: BAD BAD MENUS! MAKE THEM BETTER, MAKE THEM LIKE YOU USED TO!
29) How about DIRECT IP Connect?
THANK YOUS!
==============
That was the bad stuff.. Now, here's some stuff I'd like to thank the makers of FIFA 2004 for. I hope we see more of this again next year:
Thank you for that free season of online game playing!
Thank you for bring Perluigi Collina to the game!! Next year, you guys should add that other famous referee, the tall, skinny (lanky) Dutch dude.. I forget his name.
Thank you for the wonderful graphics and sound! And for superbly recreating the San Siro among other stadiums!

28) PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, make the menus better. Take your pick from any of your older games, I've never had a problem with the menus until this year.A lot of the above can be summed up with: BAD BAD MENUS! MAKE THEM BETTER, MAKE THEM LIKE YOU USED TO!
29) How about DIRECT IP Connect?
THANK YOUS!
==============
That was the bad stuff.. Now, here's some stuff I'd like to thank the makers of FIFA 2004 for. I hope we see more of this again next year:
Thank you for that free season of online game playing!
Thank you for bring Perluigi Collina to the game!! Next year, you guys should add that other famous referee, the tall, skinny (lanky) Dutch dude.. I forget his name.
Thank you for the wonderful graphics and sound! And for superbly recreating the San Siro among other stadiums!
