FIFA 2005 General Requests

Youth Team
Do these

Release the FULL creation centre on time (Preferably with the game)

Allow for Internet radio play and fewer people will complain about the music. Preferably this should read the song titles from the websites that give them (www.hot105fm.com) and display them on FIFA.
 

Scotto

Reserve Team
Better free kick system
Better corner kick system
Better crossing system (Fifa 03 was perfect and simple)
Creation Centre in the game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Proper hair styles (Denis Irwin has a mullet!, how realistic is that!)
Proper skin colours (David James is black!!!!!! i mean come on do some research, open your eyes, if he's black, then my ass is made of candy floss!)
Manager reactions (e.g Porto manager this year against Man.utd)

Handballs
Ability to go round goalkeepers
Step overs (e.g Cristiano Ronaldo)
Weather
If you do a really good shot but doesn't go in, it'll b good if u had replays of it from different angles. (But this might get annoying after a while hehe)
Substitution Cinematics (E.g if captain goes off he takes his captains armband off and gives it to someone else)
More violence!!!!!!!! :rockman:

The amount of requests where cosmetics is the most important is shocking me. 'Jamaican league is a must', lol, that one had me laughing. And the others about faces boots and the like. No wonder this game outsells PES by such a large margin.
I want a game where the gameplay is the most important. Fifa has so much going for it, but the gameplay sometimes is a major, major drawback.

I want the attributes to make a difference.

When I am defending I dont want my computer controlled defenders to sprint into the midfield when the ball is passed forward to the attacker that is sprinting into the space the defender was marking.

When I switch players I dont want the new player to do that scripted sprint forward then I eventually have full control about a second later after he has conceded the space I wanted to mark.

When I am the defender passing the ball, I dont want that delay between the button press and the pass that is much longer than if he were a midfeilder or attacker. Defenders arent crap at fooball these days you know.

When I switch to a defender who is chasing a ball played over the top, I dont want that slight freezing/ slow down that happens
and gives the attacker the advantage.

I want the football to be more flowing rather than the series of jerks it is when you pass and the recieving scripted player turns with no control from yourself, or he takes ages to control and do what you want him to do. Football is not this.


And when my opponent crosses in the OTB mode and the defender goes into that script when he stands behind the attacker and waits for the ball to drop so that the only challenge he can make gives you a 80% chance of him fouling inside the box. Thats so pathetic.
I want tactics to work precisely as I have instructed ie, when I select 451 and defensive, 8 players should not be stranded in the attack when the move breaks down.

EA have given the advantage to the attacker in this game, thats why the PES buyers who have looked at this game complain about the amount of goals and how easy it is to score. Football is also about the art of defending too, and that has never been something that EA have felt the need to have in the game, or that Americans feel is important.

Euro 2004 stadiums would be nice...:rolleyes:
but gameplay improvements would be great! in fifa2004 it's almost impossible to drible opponent players for example...
an indoor mode, just like fifa97 and 98 had.
a player career mode, were you would create a player (could be yourself), choose a position to play (goalkeeper included), you would start in a small team, and depending on your performances you could sign for bigger teams...only saw one game like that so far, it was Libero Grande i think it was from Namco and was only out for the PS, this idea has so much potencial and was never explored the way it should be :(

Here is some request from me and some friends:

1. Maybe EA can make FIFA for all paddle type (Sidewinder, Thrustmaster, Logitech)
2. Menus were bad in FIFA 2004 and were so good in FIFA 2003 so maybe there's some work on it :)
3. Maybe can we kick corner with 'Reimoise' style.
4. When there's a goalkick and we want to make a change, keeper shoot a small passing, it is not good at all :)
5. More possibilities to shoot penalty (Panenka or some other stuff)
6. No more 'unlock' stuff.
7. About EASO, maybe can we earn more point if we play with a smaller teams. It's boring because most player take Real, Chelsea, ... sometimes, we see a Real-Real game.
8. Maybe can EA put Creation Center directly on the original CD and able us to add league, teams, competitions with official calendar.
9. And sure, more world club and national teams (depends of licences unfortunately :()

Cheers, Cyprom.

ok off the ball control should stay it rocks...they should have alllll the stadium or maybe 80% for all teams...the pitches don't look that realistic and when i bought fifa some pitches were like circle..but i don't even saw any of that...FACES!!!!! this is one thing i love to see..hopefully 80% are realistic...and boots...we can't always have those dumb EA black boots..at least have vapor or watsoever for a player...the online play:they should improve the stats making..more ppl to join clubs..improve those stupid servers..the last thing is don't bring out the game isf its not fully finished like fifa 04!!!!:rockman:

here's my request EA (if u really read these boards):

Either live up to your promise of "total ball control" and great soccer simulation, or dont make anymore soccer games.

Cuz i can tell you RIGHTTTT NOW: I will NOT be buying FIFA 2005.
 

Jono82

Senior Squad
1. More Chants - I'm sick of hearing 'One Wayne Rooney' over and over again!

2. PLEASE bring back the Indoor stadium, this is the reason I'm still playing FIFA 98.

3. ALL Nations, including American Samoa & Fiji with FULL WC Qualifying, AND the ability to play in the World Cup (unlike FIFA 2002).

Thanks.

How about each team has weaknesses and strengths?

for example: Real Madrid more likely to concede goals through quick counter-attacks and more likely to score goals from set pieces :)

- 100% customizable controls. and have the option to manage a different action pressing two buttons at the same time or whatever. It's annoying being unable to do this. as not everybody as the "official joypad" to play the game as it should be.
- Mexican League
- Argentinian League
- Libertadores Cup
- More Brazilian Clubes
- Better and customizable cameras
- Upgradable teams (sometimes the game comes before a squad has made their player exchanges or change uniform, or uniform number). It's buggy playing with non up-to-date teams.
- Player(s) Editable mode (to change numbers, shoes, hair style, beard or moustache etc.)
- Improved Lightning and Weather FX (there are no weather FX at all which is not good, we need rain, snow; and lightning fx are so poor, looks like cartoons).
- Improved Cinematics (for substitutions, fouls, stadium presentation, people mood, etc.)
- AI of the game is completely wrong.
- Improved ball control.
- Improved player control.
- Better online game experience.

everyone pretty much has said everything..

Turkish League and I would like the ability to create your own stadium, like in Madden 2004. And a creation center for consoles.

Starting XI
I request an in-depth, realistic shooting system, which requires intelligence and skill/timing to score, not just some lucky timed shot from far out.

It's always the shooting system, which makes FIFA suffer. It's just bloody easy!!!!!! :kader:

Requests

I would like to see in fifa 2005 -:

- More REALISTIC AI - Such as macking it possible to run round defenders rather than them just swiping the ball from your feet.

- More REALISTIC Player Stats - At the moment when you have the ball Div 3 palyers can catch up with you even if your some one like Henry, You should be able to have better players run faster.

- More in-depth training in Carrer Mode.

- I would also like to have more detail such as the make and colour boots the players where, like Beckhams Gunmetal predators.

- You should also be able to Create players and Edit current ones.

- I would also like to see the Off-the-Ball control in there but improved, also better skills would be nice, E.g -: Step overs, nutmegs, and they should be easier to control.

I hope this helps.

Cheers

Right here goes.....i hope you people actually read these.

1.For example...I like to play as my team in the premiership on fifa 2004. and i like to actually feel i am playing in the premiership. At the moment this is not happenning and can be sorted in a number of ways.

Ok you cant have every stadium but something that resemble a premiership stadium is a must because in this country the stand behind the goals are very close. in fifa they are miles away and it feels like a european stadium. even in highbury. it makes a lot of difference.

to have realistic fixtures like, 80% of league fixtures being played at 3pm on a saturday. and to creat an atmosphere as if it is a saturday afternoon game. Let the commentators introduce the teams and lineups on screen. being able to see subs coming off the bench.Or what about seeing the managers reaction to a miss or conceding a goal.(thats a good one)have louder or angrier crowds at derby matches. have players making mistakes. goalkeepers dropping the ball (happens all the time) defenders slipping. having proper weather. why is it always dry in fifa04? players get sent off for a last defender foul in the box. player diving or doing 2 footed tackles. Referee consulting his linesmen for a tight decision. All of this builds tension and its what makes the beautiful game what it is. It is important to recreate it by including these details.


Players attributes working more. more skillful or faster players should be able to out do lesser players. not 100% of the time tho.

Camera angles either sorted out of made fully customisable. IMPORTANT. because i have spent a whole evening changing the angle because i couldnt get into the game only to realise there wasnt one i liked enough. make the height and zoom ranges further so i can go higher if i want.

IMPORTANT interface is a mess at the moment. try something that resembles what they do on sky. bold, colourful,3d. its boring and dark and pages dont fit on screen. others games can do it. tcm 2004 is better for it.

more things to make it feel like a proper season like goal of the month (and actually show it), player and managers of the month. team of the day (star players) like in tcm2004.top goalscorers etc....

id like to see players that play well get man of the match not just the goal scorers.

for it to display the right competition in the game. so doesnt say premiership game when im playing Lyon in the European Champions Cup.

being able to choose stadium for your club. creation centre should never have been axed. bring it back.

custom tournaments...or even just international competitions at all.

it sounds like a lot but its all withing your capabilities as you have come this far. Still the best game by far. reason i bought a ps2. but it fustrates me because of the above. thankyou

sam

oh i forgot.

defenders play too deep and you can never drop a ball over the defence for your forward to run onto because the sweeper is standing 30 yards behind the other defenders. unrealistic

goalkeepers. generally good. but sometimes they jump unrealistically far and have unrealistically quick reactions to shots and free kicks.( if your fk is heading for the top corner, its not that often a goalkeeper will save it. they save it easlily 95% of the time.

Here are my requests:

1) When you select the formation squad, please allow us to locate an specific player wherever we want, as you can do in the Konami's ISSS64.

2) Allow us to select team captain.

3) Let us decide from the beggining as in the corner kicks, who makes the shoots for the free kicks if you are in the right side of the field or if you are in the left side, for example, you could use Roberto Carlos or Beckham in specific zones of the field.

4) Let the computer make automatic trades, just as in NBA live 2004.

5) Create and modify center, for players, teams, leagues, tournaments.

6) Better control of the right analog stick, I mean tricks easier to do for premium players as Zidane, Ronaldo, etc.

7) Let the AI controled team make substitutions of players during the game and not only when there is an injured player, as in FIFA 2003.

8) Mexican and Argentinian league.

9) Let us to buy players from every league in the game.

10) Let the strongest teams make transfer and adquisitions of star players from around the world.

11) Make this available for every console platform and pc.

12) Accurate calendar, for example, if you play a league tournament it should be played on Saturday or Sunday, if it's a Champions league, it should be played on Tuesday or Wednesday, if its a Coup tournament it should be played on Tuesday or wednesday. And please, no Champions league game should be played in the same week as you play a Cup game. This is for the career mode. And for the normal league (for example Spanish Liga Primera), alternate local games and away games, no 3 locals and 3 away, just alternate 1 to 1.

13) In career mode, please do not make a 5 year limit, allow us to retire players, offer new contracts to them, etc, as in NBA Live 2004 dynasty mode.

Hope this will be "heard" by EA
