With the new fifa 2009 , you should inclued a few new more feture like have a reff on the pitch, have the lines man running up and down the pitch, when your in manager mode you can creat your own manager and rome around the stadiam and go to locker rooms , but i thinck that you should keep that one hiden for a few more years to make it a bit better, you could make a new in match play like Be a Pro season but you can do more than just one season and you can look from he’s head.But i do thinck that Be a Pro season was awsom. Anyway thanx for reading a few of my ideas hope that you mite you some of them. Thanxx Can’t wait till the next Fifa 2009….
JUST A FEW THINGS TO ADD TO FIFA 09
- MORE INTERNACIONAL TEAMS (SOUTH AND CENTRAL AND NORTH AMERICAN TEAMS,ASIA EUROPA AND AFRICAN TEAMS……NOT TO MANY IN 08.
- MORE CLUB LEAGUES——THERE IS MORE EUROPA CLUBS AND LEAGUES THEN AFRICA,ASIA OR EVEN SOUTH, NORTH AND CENTRAL AMERICA—–WHY?
-REAL CUPS—–WHY PUT FAKE CUPS…..IT DOESN’T MAKE SENSE. NOT EVEN THE GREATEST CUP OF ALL IS IN TIFA 08, NO WORLD CUP????
- BRING THE STADIUMS FROM WORLD CUP FROM THE PAST.
STADIUMS FROM INTERNACIONAL CUP FINALS.
-COMENTARY IN FIFA 08 ITS OK BUT COME ON!!! THE GAME ITS PLAYED WORLD WIDE. SO WHY NOT HAVE COMENTARIES IN SPANISH,AND ALOT OF DIFFERENT LANGUAGES NOT JUST ENGLISH.
-BRING BACK THE BEST PLAYERS OF THE WORLD, MARADONA,PELE,ROMARIO,SOCRATES, BECKENBAUER, BEBETO,KLAUS,PAULO ROSSI,TEOFILO CUBILLAS,ROBERTO BAGGIO , BOBBY MOORE ETC ETC ETC.
-BETTER FAN CHEERING, IN FIFA O8 ITS OK SOMETIMES YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE FANS ARE SAYING. DRUMS ARE COOL BUT FIRE WORKS AT NIGHT OR LIGHT GLOWING OR RED,OR BLUE SMOKE WOULD BE REALLY COOL.
-THE COPA LIBERTADORES, UEFA CUP AND THE WORLD INTERNACIONAL CUP AND THE WORLD CUP…..ITS A MUST!
HOPE YOU GUYS MAKE THE GAME BETTER…..ANY QUESTIONS LET ME KNOW…I CAN SURE HELP
Yo!
It’s me the no.1 fan of Fifa i’ve been playing fifa since i was 7 years old.
So dudes i gots you some new ideas for fifa 09.
-Realistic gaphic for fifa 09 psp version
-Iraq team and stadium
-Golden boot
-Managers like Sir alex ferguson etc……
-I think the stars for the cover should be Kaka,Rooney,Ronaldinho
-I think Ronaldo and Rooney should have the same ratings because they are both good
-Give Nani a good face even Ronaldo+Rooney.
Bye Lol hope my ideas work! :-)
I’d like to see the Argentinian league in the game for the 1st time ever! Same as the Uruguayan league, chilean, colombian, and mainly more south american teams. I understand that developing a game is not an easy task….but if you can add the top 2-5 teams from major south american countries that would be awesome.
Example: Peñarol an amazing team with plenty of history. Peñarol is a Uruguayan based team that has won the Intercontinental Cup on 2 occassions…
Another suggestion….would be making the club ratings a little more realistic…. no offense but I find that european clubs are way overrated and Boca Juniors is always 3 outta 5 stars….i mean come on….if you know soccer….you know Boca Juniors is in the top 5 teams in the world…and prob. the biggest international farm/market for euro teams everywhere….and im not even argentinian and I know that!
Oh…last but not least….how do you not have La bombonera and Centenario as stadiums in the game!!!!!!!?
STADIO CENTENARIO is the stadium that hosted the first world cup ever! 1930 (uruguay) and its not even in the game….come on now…Developers…you’ve been handed a challenge…make me proud 2 be a fan of the greatest game in the world!
PEACE, LOVE, AND HAPPINESS!
every keeper real stadiums such as the madejski , fratton park ,villa park and the riverside
You should do something about it for the psp because the crowd animation sucks. Also try to make the people in the crowd 3D instead of 2D (im still talking about the psp) Youll be making more money if you do that
You should be able to create teams, have partice back on it and have better create player mode. Fifa 09 should let you create the manager like player creation mode and be able to use analog and the older buttons, also it should be called fifa 2009.
put in psl league and make the fans more realisic like, the fans must wear their teams t-shirt for whom they support. and put in season highlights an commentator must be much better than 08,07, 06 because its every year the same.
also,
a name recognition system. There are names out there that the system should recognize. Maybe in create a player they can have a data bank to choose from and if you don’t see yours up there THEN you can make one up. other ea games have it. that goes for first and last names,
fitted kits. ones that look realistic like the ones real players wear.. they are way too baggy. Also how about more hair options… there’s no middle ground.. it’s either shaved… or longer, even some of the short cuts are long. How about afro selections that doesnt look like the player is missing chunks of hair.
Also, if we cannot create a super player, maybe something where when our created player grows in manager mode and gets better, it would be useful for us to see that growth when we use him outside of manager mode.
More international teams, maybe if not a league or the world cup, at least the euro tournament or something.
Interleague trading. it’d be cool if we could trade between leagues, as it does happen in real life.
More stadiums. and a better variety of them, not just more for europe, for instance, on 360 ther is no home depot center. wtf! or any stadiums in America, I’m sick of estadio de las artes. So more variety of generic stadiums too.
better crowd. Maybe like crowd animations, like when someone scores a goal, people in the crowd high five or whatever, they can boo in their home field… also i don;t know if they had it for fifa before, but for its other sports games ea had some sort of athmosphere thing where it would get really loud in the stadium and your controller would vibrate. That was cool… you could pump the crowd up. Also, i do like the chants, i think there should be more.
More variety of commentary. How bout different commentators for different countries leagues or something.
Be a Pro season mode.
create a manager animation.
more player celebrations.
I do enjoy fifa 08 though, some things do frustrate me.
plz include the argentine league
i think for the next fm 09 the staff names in the team should be the same same as they are in real life like liverpool has got rick parry so the game shuld have to
All my suggestions are based on my knowlage of the ps2 version of fifa08, whilst i am planning on getting a ps3 and that version i have little experiance of its gameplay and therefore apologies in advance if anything i mention has already been implimented
1. Referee and linesmen
2. manager rivalrys and actual managers!, this i think would be a great addition to manager mode, example your rival teams manager says something about you and you can respond in a number of ways creating a more intense rivalry or maybe you start off a viisious rumor about a manager and it goes from there, crowd could get involved in the next game you have with that manager or maybe a sideline row might occour between the two managers. players become more reckless in tackles and attitudes, towards the other team etc.
in addition each team would need to have a manager, these managers might be sacked or move to a different club. also each manager should have a set of attributes which may slightly affect the players at the club or the crowd for the first few games they are in change.
Manger creation would then allow the choosing of cirtain attributes to your manager however they would need to be balanced out lets say something like for each good attribute you need to add a bad one to which there are two lists one list with loads of good attributes and one with loads of bad and you can have a max of 4 attributes OR each attribute you choose already has a predifined effect which will cause something good and something bad MAYBE the attributes dont need to do anything good or bad but they effect something in some kind of way. i believe this will give much more depth to manager mode and make it feel alot more of a personal individual creation
3. player awards, manager mode, golden boot, Ballon d’Or, world player of the year etc. by winning these a player may become more valuable or gain stats or confidance.
4. pitch wear and tear, not only over the course of a season, but lets say for example its been raining and there is a really bad sliding tackle or something, would that not leave some kind of mark on the pitch?. a couple of other examples of pitch condition can be seen in england over the last year england vs croatia or wigan vs chelsea(a massive line through the middle of the pitch because protective measure against flooding) integrating choices that can be made in manager mode to the condition of the pitch, expense of pitch condition to get more money etc. AND/OR consistant bad weather to degrade the pitch. in realation to this, the teams ability to play should be slightly affected by the condtion of the pitch
5. realistic money decisions in manager mode, “a board member approachs you as says your doing really well hear some extra money for transfers £50,000 was added to your balance” now when your a big club lets say manchester united what exactly is £50,000 going to get you in the transer market, there are other instances like this that occour throughout manager money that i find are massively unrealistic aand/or offer no real addition or advantage to the season. so i would like to see that improved.
6. more Classic players, the greats from over the years, im not to bothered about them going overboard but i think it would be great to play with more of the legends of football, i personallty would also like to beable to move them into the teams available now and edit their stats just as if they were normal players, altho i can see birthdate would be a problem surely it is possible to get around it somehow
7. More work done on crowd, a clear distinction between home and away fans and a more realistic reaction for each teams performance. as regands to manager mode and the crowd,
if your team has had a series of poor results then the crowd should become more restless and angry with the team (maybe resulting in a brawl or pitch invasion :O lol)
8. women’s league, yes, even the ability outside of manager mode to mix women and men together although im not to bothered about the mixing i do think womens league would be a great addition
9. Transfers, some clubs my want a player and money in exchange for one of there players and the fees seem very premade , example, if the player is 21 years old ,has 98 overall stats, is elite and plays for a big club they they are worth £56,999,999. This isnt really very flexable, maybe it should take into account the way the play has preformed over the last season, i dunno but some individuality in transfer amounts would seem more realistic
10. world cup and euro i guess just international league which can be unlocked after gaining a cirtain amount of experiance/prestige throughout manager mode or something along those lines
11. as far as stadiums go, im not to bothered about more, sure it would be nice to have every clubs individual stadium but i think theres better thinks to spend time on, however alittle more imagination for the generic stadiums would be nice, just a few really exreavigant overwhelming mind blowing stadiums that are visually spectaclur would do me just fine
12. leagues, im english so im happy lol. i guess representing more countries is better sure but sadly i dont play over half the leagues that are in the game at the minute so : / i dunno its a locational debate more than anything
hope my suggestions are useful : )
make Be A Pro better. so instead of it ending after 1 season and seeing who was the best make it so you can carry on season after season because otherwise theres no point playing when theresno table to compete in
Hey EA,
maybe this year bring back the ref, it makes the game look more realistic and thats what us fans want. An international manager mode, better comentary, more realistic gameplay, thanks for your time x
hi i think u should consider these ideas i fink that fifa 09 should have
1.referess & linesmen who are real!!!! i.e Howard Webb, Bennett, Halsey
2. When you score the crowd just sits there, i want to see people going barmy, maybe see where the away fans are sat and the dividing netting & stewards.
3. More staduims, there are loads of great stadia that has not made the game.
4.the tunnel graphics are poor this year, people are sat down on a bench in th e tunnel??? i want to see mascots at the front camera man and a few bodies just hanging round.
5. the warm up scene is horrific, i mean when was the last time you seen a team come out of the tunnel and everyman run across the pitch.
p.s i love fifa 08 its a mint game hope fifa 09 is better tho
wot about the main stadiums in scotland
*Hampden Park (scotlands national)
*Tynecastle Stadium(heart of midlothian fc)
*Parkhead(celic parkc-celtic fc)
*Ibrox(rangers fc)
*Easter road(hiberniain)
and plz add the lower division scottish leagues and the CIS cup ( i know it a micky mouse cup but hoo cares)make the players and fans more realistic
and add build a stadium i mean evry wants it so y not
and being able to mix and match home and away socks tops and shorts
PLZ ADD THESE THINGS AND MOST OF EVRYONE ELSES IDEAS-THEY ROCK!!!
P.S Fifa NO.1!!!!!!
Celtic and Rangers should be 5star teams and both stadiums should be in the game!
hi, just wanted to say that fifa is the best football game about. pro evo soccer is total rubbish.Just a few things to make it betta would b that have different commentry andy gray john motson MARTIN TYLER alan parry n so on.To have the referee and his lines men i have played it on the the ps3 think it’s the bizz cos u get the mucks up from the linesmen n referees i cant afford a ps3 just yet so will u PLEASE PLEASE bring it out on PLAYSTATION 2 thnx for reading
i feel it would be better if the transfer system was better like for e.g champ manager where you can swap players, give fees, loan for certain amount of times and amount of money is more realistic. also would be better if there were more realistic stadiums for e.g middlesborough, villareal etc rather than tha
Hi
I`m very glad to play the 08 and waiting to see next ver of fifa.
I`m an old player of fifa series from SEGA versions till now,But every year I can`t find what I looking For in FIFA and wait for next year but nothing.
I`m from Iran, and you have very fans here but every year they decreases and join your rival company KONAMI. because they can find what they need from PES, but you still have very fans like me that don`t leave FIFA.
Every year they make patches and publish it on WEB for other fans that looking for what you didn`t put on FIFA. The most of them is IRAN NATIONAL TEAM Patch and IRANIAN PRO LEAGUE Patch.
I said All of this because I hope They Hear my talks and give us an Answer that ARE YOU GONNA MAKE US HAPPY OR NOT???
Thank you for your Time And Patience
With Hope for iran In next FIFA
Bye Bye
Fifa 08 is a masterpiece it so it does not leed a lot doing to it. The gameplay is perfect really.
Here are a few things id like to see.
1.We need referess & linesmen who are real!!!! i.e Howard Webb, Bennett, Halsey
2. When you score the crowd just sits there, i want to see people going barmy, maybe see where the away fans are sat and the dividing netting & stewards.
3. More staduims, there are loads of great stadia that has not made the game.
4.the tunnel graphics are poor this year, people are sat down on a bench in th e tunnel??? i want to see mascots at the front camera man and a few bodies just hanging round.
5. the warm up scene is horrific, i mean when was the last time you seen a team come out of the tunnel and everyman run across the pitch.
6. maybe a player does a tackle that he does not get booked for, but your player goes mad at him and gets a yellow for dissent.
7. a shirt tug button or dive
cannot wait for fifa 09,keep up the good work!!
Hi. more leagues: Iranian league which is the 2nd best league in asia.
Azadi stadium which is the 4th bigest stadium in the world.
hi. I am A.R.A From Iran. Please Please Please Please Please Please Create Iran team And league. And Azadi Stadium.
Hello. Please make so the purposes on a season would depend not on quantity of stars and from your the game. I shall explain I play for a weak team, therefore I can not buy the star players. Win with her for example championship of Italy and on the following season I receive a task to not take off. And in eurocups.Two times has won League of the Champions and they to me all the same put a task to pass in a group stage.
Correct it, please.
i agree with most of peoples suggestions and i definately think there should be more offical grounds in all of the english divisions also when you play a league 1 , championship game e.t.c. have commentators like chris kamara and don goodman and have andy gray and martin tyler just for premiership matches and some champions league matches. ,, also i think that each player should have a rage meter and if a player’s rage meter fills up to the top they get really frustrated and do something off of the ball which would be really realistic and i know more people would buy the game cheers !
keep it on the ps2 or ill by pes
Not everybody is rich :S
Fifa 09 to ps2 must be good, because I have not buy Fifa 08 to ps2 because fifa 08 have this same graphic and everything is the same in fifa 08 like fifa 07
In fifa 09 to ps2 ,
- greate manager :D
-Fans is realistic they can sing, and music in every stadion fx Barcelona have own music when they come out of Camp nou
- More skills to a team.
-Better! much better graphic in FIFA 09 PS2 !!! :D
- 11 vs 11 on Ps2 Online :D
- Edit Ronaldinho,messi ,Robinho and much more , Like PES
- when we score a goal so that we can feal at we score !
i reckon u should put in more asian leagues (J-League etc) and hav the Asian Champions league. also be able to manage international teams in manager mode, and hav like euro, afc, world cup, an stuff like that for different nations, eg australia gets the afc an world cup, where as england mite get euro (haha not this year) and world cup.
Good job on getting the A-league in 4 08 tho!!!
They should have more classic players,like pele or maradona.and more nacionals team like in germany 06.and put the game in playstation 2.
i belev that ea should make the game better for psp. if the freaking net would change color it would be better if the referee would come out during the game and also the linesmen were are they? i also beleve that the field should be longer than it is bekause you run 4 a short distance and you are already at the other side of the court. that is all i have 2 say thanks.
Would be good to have a pro mode where you start playing for a small team and have to get signed for better teams and in the end play for your country. By training you could get the stats you need to become a better player. Like free kick, passing shooting, dribbling. the run up to take corners looks poor (could do with some variation)
The more bits in edit player mode the better.
Changing the way your player wears his shirt. length of shirts and shorts and socks
Different Coloured Licenced Boots
Referee’s & Officials
I think this has been added on here but a 1st person view when playing as manager would be amazing. This would be completely unique and really put football manager in its place. (plus you can pull off the i didn’t see it excuse like wenger)
Kicking the ball away after a foul or offside (from tapping the button repeatedly after a free kick has been given)
A match of the day program would be good with the best bits from all the league games. they had this on an american football game for the xbox so it would be possible. The extras you get on NFL games are amazing and worth looking at.
Argentine League has to be, is one of the best leagues in the world, and all the teams to make big boys came in this last season .. Is good
And would have to put it as well as the liberators
Hello ..
WANT TO SET THE LEAGUE IN ARGENTINA FIFA 09
I ASK YOU PLEASE PLEASE THE LEAGUE ARGENTINA
THANK YOU FROM NOW AND SUCCESSES ..
AND IF YOU CAN PUT THE LIBERTADORES CUP AND COMENTARISTAS OF LIFE AS A REAL .. MARIAN CLOSS LIKE ME .. FROM GOOD AND THANK YOU .. GOOD YEAR .. UNTIL THEN.
Nico .. I AM VERY ARGENTINO:)
I think you should be able to manage international teams in career mode !! Also include more leagues such as welsh league and asian leaugues. Finally you shouldn’t not be able to buy players just because they play for a rival team it should just be harder to sign them.
Thanks
luke
FOR FIFA THE LEAGUES RUSSIAN J LEAGUE MOROCCAN LEAGUE SOUTH AFRICAN LEAGUE AND TUNISA AND MAYBE UAE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think that FIFA 09 should be a lot more like FIFA 07 because in FIFA 08 it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to score outside of the box and to be honest, unrealistic. Also, i think animations should become more detailed and more leagues, stadiums and players should be introduced.
PERHAPS a training system like in FIFA 07 but not with the mini games, with drills around an assault course or something?
FIFA 2008 is ace!!
not alot but for the next addition (for the xbox360) i would like a champions league, international manager mode, more leagues, interviews, better commentators the great John Motson Clive Tyldesley.
please can you have the celebration were that guy who plays for sou pualo climbs on the crossbar
real ratings on players
the manager shud celebrate wen this team scores
more goal celebrations for players as pes2008 have loads
better edit mode for making players
u shud beable to have differant team formations and thn be able to choose wot formation u wont to play before a match
u shud show the players celebrating with the trophy after winnin a cup or league
players overall ratein shud not go down thn thy get to 30 as sum of the best players in the world are in the 30s
more stadiums as in the english league about 15 teams all have the same ground
players sud be out injured fo a long time as in real life players can be out for a full season
items in the fan shop shud’nt cost as much as sum of the challangers are hard therefore i car’nt buy half the items in the shop
a goal of the mouth wud be nice player of the mouth and the player who scores the most goals in a season shud be shown gettin the golden boot award
better crowd animations like flers flags scarvs and the crowd shud be in there teams colours there sud be players on the bence and the manager
players sud be called up for there countrys a the african cup of nations is half way though the season
and there sud be better weather animation like heavy rain wind and snow and the pitch shud be muddy in rain
fifa u need to step up to beat PES 2008
I believe that you should add the russian league because it is one of the best leagues in the world, and that the Santiago Bernabeau should be back in the game since you took it out from FIFA O8.
Also, there should be more celebrations to choose from when you create a player and have the entire team celebrate when they win a championship, not just the 11 players on the field.
And when creating a team, you should be able to put advertisements on the jerseys or at least the team’s logo and build a stadium for them.
make a game which year starts in 2000 of something and work your way up from there. make it the same as fifa 08, or even better. by doing this you can have different football shirts every season, more known youths and have the big stars back.
-more animation of the player when he score a goal. when there is a foul, the player argues with the referee. when there is a injury, there are medical help. on the bench the coach is mad, or happy.
-animation of the public, when there is an important goal, they are singing like in england
-a manager mode with international teams. or in the manager you can choose international or club
-in manager mode: tournaments that will be played in the season, like the africa cup, euro, world cup, maybe olympics and world cup for clubs.
-when making the substitution, more animation of the 4th referee, one the bench
-the commentary talks about everything: the match, injury in the club, new player, new coach, news, how was the last match…
-in every mode there is an very difficult level because i played fifa 07 in legendary mode and it was not difficult
-more tactics, also tactics that the oppossent (computer) use
-in training-mode: like a real training, excercices and stuff
-like in real, long injuries in manager-mode
-more animation on the end of the game: in a finale, a big fiesta. players changing shirts. and the public: players go to theme and salute, and the public are singing
Hey , fifa 2008 is the best game of soccer in the world , need more dificulty to play , need more realistic faces to brazilian players
it isn’t nice to play with a wrong team ;\
and it will be nice to put those things , Campeonatos estaduais ( carioca , paulistão , etc..)
and copa sulamericana and copa do brasil with the 3rd division teams etc…
greek league ( greece is the europian champion since 2004 )
real accurate stats-data for all the players and teams in the game
cut scenes of different celebrations when winning a trophy ( with platini giving the cup, celebrations in the airport etc )
original – different goal posts of every stadium (colour of the nets,shape etc)
world club championship, copa libertadores, copa sudamericana ,
original training centers of milan, liverpool, real m, etc
much more efforts on the game play ( good effort this year in ps3 )
more original stadiums and presentation of the stadiums
i think the game needs mor reality put the coaches of teams put in coach mode should be good if we can train countrys too
I would like to see weather changes as a manager mode season wears on, night time for european and other weekday matches, more stadiums (as in all or most of the teams from top leagues) better crowd noise and animation, managers appearing, more international teams,
theres just 6 vital things the new version of fifa should have
1. all the premiership stadiums (i know its a tough ask because it takes forever to actually put them on the game but it would be really cool for things like manager mode)
2. referees and linesman on the game and managers on the touchline signaling things out to their players
3. a better manager simulation with realistic every day life kind of situations like clubs going bankrupt and some more big transfers
4. conference sides on the game and maybe a few non-leaguers like havant and waterlooville lol this would mean a better fa cup for manager mode
5. if some new big stadiums cant be put on the game they should allow a stadium creator
6. and finally the keepers to be a little more solid in goal because they struggle in 1 on 1 situations all the time
overall last years game fifa 08 i think was a huge success the gameplay was brilliant and i dont think the gameplay needs to change much, all it needs is just the things ive already said and probably quite a few small ones but plz plz plz add more premiership stadiums that would be brilliant and i know it would be a huge effort putting them onto this game but it would be worth it.
o yeah and one more thing when you win a trophy they actually properly celebrate with the champagne and also run a lap of honour of something similar. also get the crowd more involved in the game so it shows their reaction when a goal is scored or if they concede.
Under 18s for internationals and clubs
reserves
Referee mode
Youth academy to professional
every league in the world
better graphix
plzzz
