Are we putting to much confedence in EA?

[satanic-boy]

I think we are putting to much confedence in EA, not only because they take out parts of old fifas only to bring them back a lil re-vamped (i think euro dream league from 99 is the same basic idea as CC) when will they learn, put in, add, dont take out?
They are purely in it for money, nothing else, look at the Sims, add-on after add-on after add-on after add-on (get the point?)
It could have been done in one add-on or mayb two, and now some people have probably spent a good few hundred of their SIMS collection of which they are dead proud, and when their mates turns round and says i got SIMS2 all the add-ons mean Carlos!
Looks what i found on that gameradar review "The worst thing is people who don't like things, but won't speak out"
HOW CAN THEY SAY THAT! if they took time to come, just to this forum let alone another hell knows how many that are out there, they would see people DO speak out, people DO know what they want, What is wrong with these people? Are they blind? stupid or as im assuming too lazy and want to keep FIFA going as long as possible, they KNOW we will buy it no matter what, so they could if they wanted say its all new, add one extra league and thats that, work done for a year, while we buy a crud cd and fund their living.
Im not trying to put them down completely, but they need to think of the fans 1st and stop giving us all the bull$hit we always get, new freestyle ball control system HA!, it was better when you chose what "special" move you did at least then you didnt step over the ball only to let in a goal by the time your bloke has finished dancing about, and they should do something abt chesting, it was SO bad i fifa2003, chest the ball (taking forever) lose the ball, over and over makes for very repetative game play,
And as for these special moves eg zidane 360 spin, does anyone know ANYONE else who has a "special" move on 2003 cause i have found none.
As you can tell EA have really got to me, this was just spose to be a 2sec post, has turned into a 5mins one, hope y'all agree with me and i aint oversteped the line and have made enemies for pointing out the unfortunate truth.

P.S i AM still hoping this new one will be different Career mode sounds great, and im looking forward to that part, wonder what it will replace.....training has gone.....mayb friendlies are next

fifa do come to this forums and they know we speak out... what he is refering to is to the people the invite from magazines and different sites to go to their HQ's to test the game

Please, greet yourself to Recain. I'm sure he'll find you a rather amusing guest after having to deal with Spain and a chicken.

I'm also furious with fifa just giving us bull s**t every single f***en year, they tell us is going to be the best Fifa ever and when we get it we get dissapointed every single year, last year they persueded us with the club championship, and we ate it all. This year they came up with the off the ball control and the carreer mode which looks good, but come on, don't tell me EA is going to get it right the first time, they will probably just add something stupid to the carreer mode for Fifa 2005 and 2006 and 2007 and 2008 and the gameplay will still be the same as in Fifa 2003. Every single year when i get the new edition of fifa, i get excited and think is the best game in the world, but in a couple of months and even weeks i get tired of scoring the same goals from the same place with the same pass, and stop playing within a month or two and wait for the next fifa, and again i get disapointed.
First they take out the Creation Center where i used to create south american teams and mexican teams, and it wouldn't matter if it didn't had south american teams because i could just create the teams, players, and fix their attributes and numbers, and now we all have to worry about if our teams are going to be in the next fifa, which most of us like south american soccer.
I'm still going to buy Fifa 2004, but if the gameplay is still the same as in fifa 2003, i'll quit buying Fifa games, and if EA read this, they probably think we are just loosing one customer, who cares, but i know alot of people like me will do the same thing, and Fifa will start responding to their customers when Winning Eleven/ISS take the #1 place in sales all over the world, and thats is when EA is going to say, "we have to start working now because all we have done for the past years is giving bull s**t to our customers".

 

[Back Door Skip]

yea EA seems to play crabs, they take a step forward and two steps back and end up with a game that is below expectations

 

[johnnydepp]

Manchester

I agree with everything you said.

This year the game will sell cause it has Career mode and we will eat it too.Well at least Im sure I am CAUSE IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAMN THING FOR more than 15 YEARS !!!!!!!!!!!!!.

They may come here and know that we speak out, but nothing ever gets listened to in the end. The majority of people's wishes, such as putting the creation centre back into the console versions of the game-which has been asked for over and over again in the past year- are largely ingored. I realise that not every consumer's 'wish' can be put into the game, but the Fifa team don't seem to give a **** about ANYTHING that we want, which shows a complete lack of respect for their customers. I feel the same as the initial poster, and am tired of EA's bullsh*t year after year, with three months of hype followed by a pile of sh*te come release time. I think that many people are at the end of their patience and EA, who it seems are on their final chance with many people this year.

 

[ManUtd10]

If EA doesn't listen to us, then how are they suppose to keep real soccer fans to buy their product. Where does EA gets their ideas from if is not from us in the soccergaming Forums. If EA read our post here in the forums, I'm sure their wouldn't be much of a problem since we are the only ones speaking for our interest as we expect a good Fifa game each year. EA should take our threads and post in this forums as help to them to keep their customers. Many of Fifa gamers don't speak out, but we do, and we do it to protect our interest in the game year after year. We, the people in this forums, take Soccer as a religion and Fifa games as our bible, therefore EA should listen to our threads since most of us have been playing Fifa games since Fifa games were first introduced, and also most of us will still buy Fifa 2004, but Fifa costumers are loosing their patience in waiting an impressive Fifa series year after year.

To be honest, EA is still very safe now. The winning eleven series is ,well, very realistic and playable BUT its Japanese version is far better than its English version.

Therefore, the European gamers won't buy it.
That's also why EA can still compete with winning eleven with such gameplay.

 

[Hrvoje Bajlo]

today i "bought" WE7 for my console PS2 and it is better than FIFA 2003 200 times, no offence.... sad but true

 

[Internazionale]

I do believe that EA will do better each year.

 

[satanic-boy]

They may do better in some ways, but as we've seen for so long, worse in many others, although usually there is enough in the latest realise to make me actually wanna buy it, its never been what i was looking for after the first game i got (98 for PC) although i must say i hated 98 specially the keeper diving out the box, and i think 99 was alot better, but will we ever see such an improvment again?

 

[warrencini]

EA is good at marketing but not at programming... I think...(e.g. see the gameplay of FIFA2003)

 

[footballhell77]

EA f*CKING SUCKS, im gonna buy fifa2004 tho but this is my last year for buying that crap if its not good enough but like i been saying i want my money back from EA, damn it REFUND!

 

[Red_Mountain]

compare it to Madden 2004

I think the problem is that EA doesn't give a sh1t about the FIFA series.

just look at the NHL or Madden series to see that FIFA must have the reject programmers/directors etc as FIFA series seems to be way behind these other titles in terms of gameplay, realism, and visuals

 

[acmn]

how can u compare it to madden fifa 2004,fifa 2004 isn't relesed yet,n u say compare it to madden 2004,did u see the game,no:so please shut up

All your comments that are supposed to be insults (but aren't)have something to do with Recain. You must be Bob Saget pretending to be portuguese.
