BUZZING NOISE CONTINOUOUSLY ALL THE TIME DURING GAMES IS DRIVING ALL WORLD CUP WATCHER CRAZY. IT IS NOT JUST DURING EXCITING TIME BUT IT IS ALL THE TIME. AUDIENCE FROM BOTH TEAMS BUZZ CONTINUOUSLY AND COMPETE AGAINST EACH OTHER IN BUZZING. NOISE IS VERY ANNOYING.
what a bing loody shame!!!.. I looked forward so much to enjoying watching the game on tv in Australia. But all I got was a "swarm of bees". Annoying to say the least. So after watching the first 10 minutes of the first match I switched off the tv. I just could not stand the blaring trumpets that just sounded like a swarm of bees drowning out everything. I woke up 5 hours later and hoped that the initial excitment may have died down. But no..........another match and another annoying sound spoiling the viewing. So I switched the tv off. What a bloody shame these games have been ruined by this completely annoying monotone
its not fair for those who only have the budget to buy a ps2 don't get to enjoy the game..if i may, you should publish a ps2 version for his game

People acc in the world cup like joe cole should be on the game
captian your country is a lot better view and game play only thing i have wrong with the game is sometimes the passing goes where you dont want it too
On difficulties World Class or higher the AI are almost only trying to go through on the side and making crosses. Get kind of boring after a while.
The idea of gaining and losing momentum when you score or concede a goal has been taken to far. There is now to much difference in how the player handle a simple pass after you’ve conceded compared to before you did it. It gets kind of silly.

Fix those two things and I would be the most satisfied player
the games sucks as the squard is fixed no more selection of player :(, i think gold memberhip is needed to update the squard :( . ea is quite lazy this time round
great game has everything u would want in a footy game hope fifa 11 is more like this
PLZ GET CREATE A STADIUM PLZ EA
Fantastic game, just two problems :

The penatly composure par cuts out of the bottom of my screen and I have tried everything but to no avail. This makes penalty taking sheer luck.

Secondly, the goalies are far too good, especially in one - on - one situations.

:)
This game has pretty much decided for me that I won't be buying anymore soccer games released by EA.
EA must create a PC version of FIFA World Cup South Africa game. This is my only suggestion.

please get rid of captain ur country and allow the player to create as much players as they want. i was really annoyed when i could only create a maximum of 4 players. please dont let that be the case in the next international game
The atmosphere needs to be improved. The crowd dont sing songs anny more and are quite boring. There should be a huge difference in noice when you score a late goal or against a rival or title deciding goal. Also weather did imrpove from 09 but the weather is random on 10, i ended up playing in 6 or 7 games in a row of snow in march. The weather shoud be more accurate to the time of year, sun in the summer, rain and some snow in the winter. Also the weekday matches should always be at the night as well should the champions league. There should be transfer updates and boots updates, because there is always a new boot out and you always want the new stuff for pro.

well i play with Panama in CONCACAF and there some major issues bothering me when i play. 1st off Panama is missing its Captain Felipe Baloy a defender and a star player for panama, instead in the game it was given to a striker. it's missing numerous key players that make Panama who they are in the Pitch. 2nd there jerseys could be fixed they are not the same in real life. the faces some are good and i give that to you and some not so much but i just want the key players that are missing so my team can play how they should play against other teams; and the jerseys updated please!
I found that the online gameplay was a bit laggy, and that the goal celebrations were a bit silly and pointless, where would you see wayne rooney, doing some breakdancing and balancing on his head- totally unrealistic, referee's are useless, they get in the way of the ball too much, and as stated with fifa 10 the referee needs to either stop the play or give the advantage not give the advantage then 25 mins later give you a yellow card for the challenge, if a ref did this in a real game he would get slapped, I find the online world cup a bit harsh in level wise, you could have a world class player playing against an amateur which is a bit unfair and would maybe take them ages to get the online achievements for winning the world cup- other than these faults- AN AWESOME GAME 4 OUT OF 5
Not a great game... The referees seem ridiculously unfair in it giving out fouls for EVERY single little thing, the commentators repeat themselfs allot and I dont like the changes in pace with the game the more I played it the more it felt like PES.
Seems online feature improved but still a bit laggy, especially during peak hours.
Should do something for next version, like adding more EA servers, or reducing other client-side's processes such as (hi-res) graphic details for people who do not have high-speed connection.

Well I really like the game, and can see myself spending a lot of time on it, however there are a couple of major issues, and a few things that are irritating. I had always been pro PES until the last few poor renditions, and do believe FIFA to be the better game now.

Things that need to be addressed:

Being ex-PES, I use the 'New Alternate' control style. Pressing 'B' to exit the instant replay SHOULD NOT CAUSE MY PLAYER TO KICK THE BALL when returning to the action. THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

My defenders should not be wearing Lead Boots and taking Depressants. The opposition defenders should not be taking Speed and Steroids. This apparently is not a PES specific trait then.

In the menus, pressing right on the D-Pad should NOT be the same as pressing the 'A' button. The 360's D-Pad is shocking, WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?

There are times when my cpu controlled team mates simply WILL NOT run forward into space. YOU ARE A WINGER, RUN DAMMIT.

Using the D-Pad to select tactics is shaky at best. It often doesn't work while the ball is out of play, and is hard to use when the ball is in play.

The keepers should show their respective jersey colours on the player ratings screen, and not be the same as the outfielders.

The rest of the game is brilliant, the presentation is fantastic and the atmosphere is great. Kudos.
Its gameplay is good, but still needs improvement some more realistic movements, like in the vid you have it at your youtube for pes 2011 https://youtu.be/HB_guJ5OxuA.

Teams data such as players, kits and etc. are only good for famous teams, rest mostly wrong or not exactly like as in real world.

You have the bird's view cam over stadium, but there is no city around the stadium.
can someone at ea fix the uniform for Peru its just completely wrong and thats so disrespectful to a team thats played in previous world cups and has a goal in the fifa all time world goals list. all it needs is a stripe the way the united states has now
IM STILL WAITING FOR AN UPDATE OF THE UNIFORMS FROM THE WHOLE CONCACAF AREA! .. I PAYED 60 $ (US DOLLARS) FOR SOME LAME LOUSY UNIFORMS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO REALITY . HAVE SOME RESPECT FOR OUR COUNTRIES . CANT BELIEVE SPAIN , USA AND MEXICO HAVE 4 DIFFERENT UNIFORMS (NO OFFENSE) AND THE REST OF THE LOW RATE STAR TEAMS HAVE BARELY 2!
At the very end of the game in the FIFA WC 2010 demo, a Spanish player slide tackled an Italian player around mid field. The play continued due to the referee giving advantage, but the game ended almost immediately. However, the Italian player was injured, and after the camera had warped a bit like it does when the game comes to a close, it then showed the cut scene for injured players. At this point I was asked to substitute the player even though the game was over. Upon substituting Giuseppe Rossi for the injured player, the game tried to commence but instead froze almost immediately during the end game cut scene, as the camera panned across the field. In EA terms, this would be an A level, or showstopper bug.
