First, let me just say great game guys!
Certainly better than F2001.

A few suggestions to make it even better...

. How about another zoomed out camera view. Like the sideline angle, but start at the blimp distance. Perhaps even a customisable camera so the player can set the height/distance?
The current camera angles are a bit of a show-stopper for me.

. The change player key has tobe changed, definitely! I think it should be the PASS key, but really, any other normal key will do. Having a seperate key just for that is way too confusing. This is my biggest gripe, and for me, almost makes the game unplayable.

. Change player code needs a little work too. A few times I tried changing to the nearest player as the other team were on a fast break, and it didnt change (or changed to another player off screen).

. Quick escape from all intro/replay/movie type screens. It seems on some screens I have to wait a while before I can continue.

. I find the normal tackle is a little difficult when facing the opponent. Perhaps front on tackles should be easier, so with no rear-tackles(except slide tackles), then u can hold it up by just turning around, but facing forward means easily tackled.

. Saved replays would be good.

. An awesome feature of Euro2000 was a Highlights option after a game. It basically put together all the fouls, goals,etc, into one replay like clip that you could watch at the end. Go one step further, and make a Saveable Highlights feature and that would be something stunning. Alot of player interaction/trading would happen. Magic.
(Do this one please!! :) )

. Game speed does seem a little quick at times. Perhaps a game speed option so players can slow it right down, or speed it up. I think Fifa has something like that too. (altho their original version of it had the slowest speed too fast. wot a joke)

. I know you're working on the AI for the patch, but just wanna bring to your attention the weird Zombie mode. heh
It seems on some clearances, etc, the ball bounces/flies/etc right next to one of my guys and he doesnt move or anything. He just stands completely still, and I cant even seem to select him to chase the ball. Weird.

. Another ai issue is the Automation factor of selected players. I think this should go.
Thats what gives Fifa such a scripted feel.
I think once you select a player he should do absolutely nothing unless you tell him to. Many times I've seen my selected player do things I just know I didnt say or want to.

I think thats about it.

An amazing game guys, and if the above issues are addressed you can have my soul ;)
(definitely needs the first 2 tho)

Outstanding!

I saw the Patch info. Looks like a few things have been covered (particularly the Switching Players bugs, zombie players, and defenders just standing still when other team attacks). Excellent news!

One MAJOR problem I still have is the Attacking. It seems there is no way to properly direct a shot at goal, other than to be standing in a set position and face at a diagonal. (this sounds alot like Fifa96!!)

This is a HUGE problem and really makes the gameplay suffer.
I have made about 10 breaks per game, go to a one-on-one with the keeper, and almost every single time the striker shoots at the keeper, no matter what I do with the direction keys. Altho, if I go in some directions, he just runs in that direction and doesnt even shoot, or tries to about 3 seconds later.

At this point, I've simply had to stop playing cuz its just not fun. I might as well go and play Fifa96 with that sort of shooting. (altho its funny how the computer always seems to shoot at the top corners of the goal)

Please fix this in the patch!!

hmmm... my money is moving slowly towards my pocket now. from what i've heard from numerous people *cough*eleftherios*cough* i'm worried, especially since i think that it's highly unlikely that the PS2 version of the game will have all the bug fixes of the patch which is a right bitch. i didn't wanna have to wait until november to play a real footy game like ISS again but it seems i may have to. bollocks :(
just as a side note... i can't get the PC version because my computer is ****ty. shame that.
