When you pick a player to substitute a little window in the corner should pop up and you can see him warming up. Like running, taking his training clothers off, talking to the manager.

5. Revenue determined on level of marketing

9. Jersey manufacturer to appear on jersey
10. Lower clubs negotiate with lesser sponsors and so on
11. When promoted from lower division to Premier League for example, the arm patch changes. Same for European matches
12. The ability to edit and view jerseys every season. A team won’t use the same jersey for 15 years
13. Customize game kits. Ex: Red Jersey, White Shorts, Black Socks or Red Jersey, Black Shorts, Black Socks or White Jersey, White Shorts, Black Socks. So many possibilities
14. Ability to name your stadium with each stadium upgrade. Instead of UK division 3 style, name it “Superdome Stadium”
15. Ability to select type of pitch and pay for pitch changes when needed
16. Ability to view the stadium: sort of a stadium fly around
17. Add sponsors to the sideline boards. Ex: team sponsors, other sponsors, promotions (custom created ads)
18. static boards for smaller stadiums and choice of static or scrolling for larger stadiums
19. Ability to see what is happening in other leagues- For example, have a link called FIFA.com and from there the user can view all the leagues to see how each team is doing
20. Be able to see league leaders from other leagues
21. Player of the Month and Year Awards
22. Manager of the Month and Year Awards
23. Footballer of the Year Award
24. Determine length of a loan spell
25. Swap deals for players and cash
26. UEFA Licscensing. Probably not going to happen when the arrival of the new Champions League Game
27. Champions League and UEFA Cup finals to be played in random stadiums throughout Europe every year. Ability to customize the list of stadiums
28. League theme music for Premiership and other leagues. I know the Premier League one used to be there.
29. Champions League and UEFA Cup music as well
30. At the beginning of the season, select your favourite international team.
31. You don’t just manage your club team, you also play as the International team
32. Play their friendlies and qualification games
33. Complete control over all off season duties, play a complete off season
34. Play in World Cups and Continental Cups every 4 years
35. Start a training camp for all players (Senior, Reserves, Youth)
36. Pick your team
37. Send rest to Reserves and Youth
38. Call up as needed
39. Have the option of a pre season tournament. Choose a tournament format, number of teams, continent or country and name the cup or play a pre set tournament. You could also take a country tour and play teams from that country. Ex; take Manchester United on a North American tour and select your opposition and number of games
40. Fixture editor- Create your own fixtures list. Move games around etc. This would allow a user to copy their team’s real life fixtures
41. Trophy Room. View all your awards in one giant (or small) room. Kind of like a tour
42. Milestones- keep track of manager’s tournament records and not just their season records. I want to know how many games in total I played in a season
43. Reward Ideas- The store is a great place to get rewards, but some just aren’t worth playing for. Here are some things I would like to play for. New boots, new leagues, new tournaments, new teams, new cups, new game modes, club specific footballs, new sponsors, new players (classic players), any thing that creates incentive to keep playing
44.Longer and more elaborate celebrations when you win a cup. Different ones as well. A 1 min celebration is never enough. I want to feel that I really accomplished something special. Maybe some special champions music.
45.Scouting reports for teams in your league. See who’s hot who’s not and who’s injured
46. Real player pictures for in game menu screens
In Game
1. Score in top corner to reflect the league you are playing in. Ex: Premiership, Bundisliga, French Ligue 1, Champions League, FA Cup, etc.
2. More of a TV style opening presentation and to be league specific to create that certain atmosphere. Atmosphere is the hardest thing to recreate. It’s all in the little details.
3. Updated commentary
4. Hostility Meter- Raises with bad calls, viscous tackles, cards, etc. Starts higher for rivalries. Ex: Man United vs. Arsenal would start with a high intensity as opposed to Liverpool vs. Bolton. That’s not to say the rivalries can’t be created. If a game starts tame and then gets very physical and ends on a high note, the next game between the two clubs would start on a higher level of hostility whether it is a cup game or a league fixture. Once the level gets to about 90%, things will start flying onto the pitch. You want to avoid getting to 100% though because the clubs may be fined for their part. It’s not to say that both clubs would be fined. If one team is out of control and the other is playing responsible football, only one team may be charged. If this happens too many times during the course of a season, a team could see a deduction in points next term, relegation or even a ban from European Play for a season. The object then becomes to play a fair responsible game of football, but that doesn’t always happen.
5. In Game ticker- gives updates on games happening at the same time you are playing as well as games that have already been completed that day. If you need 3 points to overtake Arsenal for the league lead and a ticker pops up saying they are losing to Chelsea, you know you best win the game to take top spot.
6. More injuries- Injuries don’t only happen during a tackle, they happen when players jump for the ball and clash heads or come down on their ankle wrong. They happen when players block shots. Goalies get injured when they charge for the ball and a player doesn’t stop or when they dive for it and come down on their shoulder. There are so many more possibilities. I don’t like to see injuries, but they are a big part of the game and they give your reserves and youths a better shot at the senior team.
7. Man of the Match to be brought back
1. Main page should be set up like a website homepage (example attached)

@henryhill
like that interface for Manager Mode. Hopefully they'll do something like that.
World class mode for 07 player gets dragged down over and over again when they out pace a player and the offender never gets a card. Should work that out so if they do get a card they get smarter and not drag players down over and over and over and over and over and over again. It's annoying.
MORE MORE animations on turning, trapping the ball, dribbling, and every aspect of the game.

Jersey Closet- Every time you beat an opponent, their jersey goes into your jersey closet. I guess its equivalent to swapping jerseys at the end of the game. For Example: If you were to beat Manchester away, their red jersey would go in your closet and if you were to beat them at home, their white jersey would go in your closet. Since you can choose which jerseys they wear at the beginning of the game, you can determine which jersey you get if you win. There could be rewards for collecting jerseys. Collect a jersey from every premiership team and you get some sort of bonus. You can also view your closet at anytime to see which jerseys you have collected and figure out which ones you need. Some of the bonuses could be retro jerseys or something.

also put more players own celebrations
Well first of all..the training games are pretty crap, so maybe more depth in training mode. What's football training without dribbling around cones with the ball?, or sprinting with your team mates?, or doing some long distance cross country running?.
Someone mentioned about shirt swapping..maybe if you could swap shirts..say you're a lower league team who play chelsea in the fa cup, and your ground is very sludgy so at the end you end up with frank lampard's dirty shirt and then you can have a wardrobe back in your apartment, with all the shirts you've swapped with people. Rewards for gaining shirts at the end of matches are a good idea as well, so you'll get say..6 points for whatever if you get a chelsea shirt, and like 2 points for a fellow league team's shirt. Would be good for when you look back and think..'yea i remember that game' as you stare at frank's shirt.
Another idea of mine is a match at half time just doesn't come up as a menu and automatically the 2nd half starts. How about team talks at half time. Picture this... it's a grim day with rain and grey skies, you're playing man utd in the fa cup and you're in league 3. At half time it's 2-0 and you think you can't win. Your manager can step in and rouse the team and tells each player individually what they have to do like 'make more runs into the box...beat the offside trap...get some crosses in'.
Something simple..have extra time announced when a board goes up saying '3'
When you play away, fans shout 'heeeeey!!' as your volley goes flying over. And home fans shout louder as you go into the away side's area.
The possibility of disallowed goals, shirt tugging and hand-ball would be a key area for realism..even climbing onto another player when a corner
is taken.
Also injured players shouldn't be allowed to play as soon as they've healed..like, if your star striker comes back from a broken leg, it would be silly
to play him for a full 90mins, so in fact the last 10 mins would be a great way for him to recover even further and boost his confidence.
I'd like to see fights break out on rare occasions like a penalty been given in stoppage time.
Different shaped nets for different teams..even rusty goalposts for 3rd league teams
All in all..i want to be able to look at my squad in the changing rooms..see their differences and helping each other..and not in cut scenes either.
I want my team to be like a family

the fans
EA sports, the biggest sport games company, with the fifa range which sells millions uon milions of copys every year, yet the designers still dont know that fans are SEGREGATED! how hard is it to have all the home fans in the same shirts, even the same colours as the home team, and then a seperate away following.
furthur more, how long do we have to see the fans cheering to a goal before youve even shot. come on, please, i love fifa, but the little things really annoy!
how about fan realism, i am not talking pitch invasion, but how about standing up when 1 on 1. or even in demos after scoring. Henry may taunt the oposing fans which cause a reaction. away teams could even run to their section of fans when the score to celebrate,( with the home fans still sitting in the background,THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENS EVERY SATURDAY!)
still on the fans topic, how about adopting a little, create a staduim mode, nothing in great detail, but a choice of different stands, with the changing of colour,put a few crests up, or buy large screen tvs, to gain cash via more addvertising, its all possible EA!, it may mean being able to create a a stadium that looks ever so slightly like your teams, ime no sherlock, but ive noticed that 14 teams in the championship all play in the same stadium, i dont know if ime home or away.
and finally, this year when your recording the chants, and i was mpressed with the amount of chants available in 07. GET SOME MORE PEOPLE TO RECORD THE SONGS!, at the moment the chants sound like 5 drunks coming out of a pub on friday after a few to many. your trying to create the illusion of 10,000 crazy united fans in your livingroom, not a bad casting of soapstar superstar.
i seriously believe that investment in the minor details, will create a better game all round.

Lubanski;2299817 said:Is EA Sports making EA FIFA 08 for PS3???
i heard they aren't making 08 for PS3. Which is not smart in EA's case because they should have been in development as soon as they heard the PS3's launch. In any case if they were to make it for both consoles the PS3 version should have better A.I. if they truly put in the effort and plenty of disc space for all the teams they want to put in the game.
To me, personally, I don't need special stuff like superstar mode or manager mode (though it is a good alternative when you are bored playing league).
All i want is very realistic graphics, gameplay, celebrations, you know stuff you see when playing a football match, it should be more realistic and not buggy. i would also like to play in a league and have things like champions league intertwined within the league i am playing (sorry i dunno if they did that already) also stuff like multiple matches, e.g., one day you're playing man utd, next day ac milan for champions league.
i dunno i just want realism.. i just want to play something i know i wont forget the next day or feel bored about.
one more thing. it shouldnt be that easy to play fifa. need something in the middle of fifa and pes because in my opinion pes is kind of hard.

Give MLS some respect in 08
In Fifa 08 they should
Give the MLS more respect and make the teams better or have a higher rating because the MLS is getting better and i think could compete in the english premiership.. for example dc united beat celtic 4-0 but celtic is rated much higher in fifa 07 this is wrong
Second do a Fifa superstar mode thatd be neat
Third make the keepers smarter and the defenders better
Fourth when you sprint with the ball your faster than the defenders thats not very realistic if you have the ball your a little bit slower.
Fifth Add more NATIONAL teams where is HOLLAND or IVORY COAST?
Sixth make landon donovan a 85 cus he is very good and Luciano Emilio of Dc. United is insane so he should be up there and keep beckham and a high number.. dont drop him down just cus hes goin to MLS
Thats all overall this is an outstanding game peace.

kits
i think on the next fifa you should be able ot have more accurate kit design, such as choosing sponsers and kit makes, especially when creating your own team. Also on manager mode, after every 3 or so years, you should be able to change your teams kit

fifa 08
hey!!!! i don't really want to be a hypocrite...but fifa 07 is too good....by this i mean there is hardly any mistakes made by the players...eg.the ball passes under their foot..misjudge the bounce...first touch is always good! also i would like to see more tournaments and the right names! fifa 06 keepers were awesome...but now on fifa 07 there as good as david seaman...rubbish!
and can you get the crowd more involved...sing their own unique songs for their clubs....have flares and banners, and when the away team always score why do the home fans boo? and like the do on match of the day....have a birds eye view of the stadium and zoom in on it!!

Yep,certainly. The PS3 reads blu-ray discs which can hold up to 50GB.
