1st person
FIFA SUPERSTAR New Game Mode start off where your a player and start of having trials for teams play youth championships move to reserves and slowly build your skills to a superstar
I think Fifa 08 should extend that after you finish your 15 years of coaching, or manager mode, you should be able to coach a national team or for example have a constest for the best coach or managerand then get offers from national teams so the user could play them in every 6 years during the game..!
More stadiums! and possibly a refinement of the tricks and aking on opposition players. More leagues would be nice aswell, eg. russian league and possibly the A-league. But definatley more stadiums!
-more kit choices wen creating a team.
-Be able to create more than 2 teams.
-Create your own stadiums.
-Have all the stadiums of every team.
-record a real life crowd from a match of each team and add it to that teams crowd on the game.
I have been playing fifa since 1997 on the PC. My favorite fifa game was fifa 99 which had a lot of easy moves that you can do with the player by holding shift or ctrl, that was a very fun way to play even though the new ones have those abilities too but hey are very hard to use. I believe a median in difficulty level between those to concepts will make a very fun singular way of playing. Also i remember in older fifas they had pretty much every club and player, maybe im naive but it doesnt seem that hard to design club teams and players for evey country with the new technologies that we have, because when i see club teams for Iran or some country that matters in a personal perpective it really engages me in the game.
thank you for many years of fun fifa play.
Fifa 08 devrait comporter un système d'évolution des sponsors : plus l'équipe devient importante et gagne de coupes et compétitions, plus les sponsors devraient être importants avec notamment des salaires par match plus élevès et idem pour les primes. Le gros défaut de fifa 07 en carrière, c'est de "figer" les montants des sponsors pour les petites et moyennes équipes, ce qui ne permet une évolution des plus intéresantes. Pensez à ceux qui n'aiment pas Chelsea ou le Barça et qui préfèrent des équipes plus modestes comme le RC Lens et qui n'a que 8 millions d'euros de budget dans le jeu... ce qui empêche toute transformation du club. Veillez aussi à améliorer l'option de création de club, c'est une bonne idée mais qui montre rapidement ses limites! Incorporez également les clubs de national en France. Rendez-vous dans quelques mois avec Fifa 08...
i think eusebio should be in it
1) Improve the player stats. Not just goals and shut outs. (i.e. assists, saves)

2) Have it where you can follow the other leagues (not just the league you're in) during your manager campaign.

3) Improve the international part of the game. Add the World Cup, other international tournaments, and international friendly dates.

4) Also, have it where international soccer is going on at the same time as your manager campaign. This way you'll have to deal with releasing players to allow them to play for the national team, but they could also come back with more experience and confidence.

5) Have an national team coach option as a "bonus" where after you obtain a certain amount of points you can choose to coach the national team. Here should be able to select a player pool of players you want to follow or simply just an international selection where you can keep up to date with their progress. That way you can see if they are worthy of making the team.

6) Add a workrate, leadership, and versatility skill to the game.

The workrate being for how hard your player is willing to work to improve their skills. Morale and workrate are different in the fact that if a player has a low morale and a high workrate they are more willing to do something about their current status, but if they have both a low morale and low workrate than they are more likely to regress.

The leadership idea i stole from Ghost Recon where you try to improve your guy's leadership attributes because it will improve your whole entire team's attributes. This will be good for selecting a captain.

Versatility is a big thing also. I want to know if a player will excel if I play him in a position he's not too familiar with. There should be positions that shouldn't be hard to switch such as left wing back to left wing, but switching from left wing back to forward will require a great amount of versatility.

7) Add a level of training for the season. some weeks you might want to increase the level of traininig and some weeks you might want to slack off to rest some of your players.

8) Come up with new names for "fake" players. Oguchi Donovan/Landon Onyewu or using the same name over and over and over again (Faria Pimenta) gets redundant. New names for players will sound more authentic.

9) Have an "injury percentage" (or something to that sort) where as you know in soccer where if a player gets injured, he is more likely to get reinjured. Allowing the player time to rest will allow his injury bar to increase even if he's been declared fit to play. Also, you could improve the form percentage.

10) Come up with a reserve team (and league if you really want to do it right) that way you can get some of your benchwarmers some playing time. With this, there should be a way that you can "rest" your starters that you don't want playing on the reserves.

11) Add the USL first division. It might not be the best league, but for the guys like me who don't support any MLS team (because there isn't a team nearby) it would be good. There are loyal supporters of the USL and would also help bring attention to that league.

12) Advance the different choices the manager gets to make. such as when you say that a player misbehaves than you know the player's name and then you can make the choice of fining him, benching him, or whatever you want to do.

13) Show your attendance numbers. I would like to know if my games are selling out or not in order to properly judge what to charge for admissions. With this games should be more apt to sell out for important, weekend games than regular, non important games. With this it would be important to establish rivalries in the game. for example, the Arsenal vs. Tottenham game will be more likely to sell out than Arsenal vs. Middlesborough game.

14) Add a merchandising staff. This way you get a little more extra income.

15) Have a friendly schedule option in the manager mode. at least during the pre-season. The MLS friendlies against the European teams brought in larger crowds because fans wanted to see a more prestigious match.

16) Improve the "player experience". What i would suggest, is offer different points for the different league, playing time, and importance of match.

for example, John Doe for Manchester United is a regular sub. Just for making the bench he would gain an automatic 5 points for making Man United's bench. If he were to start he would gain an automatic 10 points for starting for Man United. If he doesn't even make the line-up he gains a half a point for the training. However, if he were playing for Hartlepool the points would be less because he would obviously gain more experience playing for Man Utd than Hartlepool.

For the different league he plays in you can say all players playing in the EPL gain an automatic 5 points each game, all players playing in the Eredivise gain an automatic 3 points each game, and so on and so forth.

Obviously, playing in a final would allow a player to gain more experience than playing in a friendly. For example, playing in the Champions League final would be an automatic 25 points while you may play the same teams but in a friendly the game would only be worth 1 point.

17) In addition, to already having the birthdate, position, and country. Add how many caps/goals they have already earned. In other words, a player record. With this player record should also be a positions played. for instance, if John Doe played 120 games at right mid and 52 games played at right back i would want to know.

18) Add a age search to the transfer market. Age is normally a big thing i look at when i'm signing a player and sometimes i don't want to have to go through 10 pages to find a player that i want to sign.

19) Have it where you can set up and make deals to improve your club. Such as giving money to a charity foundation will improve your fan support or discounts for sponsors, kids, college students/military, etc...

20) Be able to narrow your search for your scouting. If i want a Brazilian midfielder than i should be able to make sure i'm getting a brazilian player. In addition, it should be cheaper to bring in local talent (which would also boost team integrity and fan support) than foreign talent.

The scouting should be mostly based to bring in players for youth academy not really your senior team unless you strike a gold mine. I don't know if this is planned for 2007 or not, but there should be a youth academy staff that will help grow players in your academy.

21. i also think eusebio should be in it
I think it should have faster gameplay and easier to be able to do skills.Add the confrence with licensed kits and teams and get all the lowerr leagues not jst the top ones.on ea sports trax u should put better music like some r'n'b n stuff like that.

it would make the game loads better if u took these into action
i would love to see celtic park and mabie ibrox in the game it would make the scottish leauge better and i would like to see downloadable content like kit updates and new footalls and boots for ps3 and xbox 360 and i would like to see attendance writen at the end of the game and advertisment not just the one you get at the start on fifa 07 i mean like stadium sponsers and stuff like that and i would liek to see a training mode in career so u can practise with new players and i think you should make it go day by day in the transfermarket so you dont just have 5 chances to buy a player and you should have the ability to negotiate not just them reject it n you have to put in a new bid
I wold like to see the 2nd portuguese division in fifa 08
holland, new zealand, israel, iran, canada and peru national teams

a lot of people like to see the 2nd portuguese division in fifa 08
also get an international manager mode
Possibility of creating matches online, or of entering one already created. Manager Online, with seleccions of equipment, of all the leagues, by drawing and market of draftees, between the participants online, with aid special cards to increase the possibility of obtaining great draftees
firstly, plz put holland team on

also at the beginning of a match, the commentator shud shout out the numbers and names of the players

u shud put fratellis song chelsea dagger definitely

the highlights of end of game shud be improved

wen players score, make them run into crowd, or make crowd run onto pitch

the commentatings always the same, change some of it
Fifa only have to make a adustments to finally make it better than PES.
Make all the players, at least in the top divisons(premiership,championship,serie a,spainish league,germany league) of world football actually look like what they look like in real life. I like about everybody else is fed up of playing with players that all look the same.
Also, you should make the gameplay faster. Chipping, volleying, overhead kicks should be made easier to perform and other skills should be introduced into the game
Russian league!
heyo

these are a list of things i would like for fifa 08

1. leagues: austrailian league, j-league, league of ireland, scottish division 1, russian liga, USSL and Chinese league
2. teams: can Celtic, Rangers, Gretna, Villareal and all of the MLS teams have most of they're things modified (e.g. sponsor, player and actual number)
3. stadiums: Luzhniki (Russia), karaisaki stadium (Greece), Olympic stadium Athens (Greece), hampden park (Scotland), Murrayfield (Scotland), croke park (Ireland) and the rose bowl stadium (USA)
4. field: can we get the old fasioned goalnets (stantions) and can some goalnets have different colours (e.g. green and white black, yellow and blue)
5. cups: can it have the fifa world cup, uefa euro, coppa america, afc championships, uefa champions league, uefa cup, concaf champions cup, afc champions league, caf champions league and copa libertadores
6.options: a custom option will be fantastic and the features, create a team (in that types of numbers and sponsors), create a stadium (in that shapes of stands, colour of seats, goalnet customisation as i said earlier, edit advertisements and grass cut design), create a cup (your favourite teams or made up, design the trophy yourself and select a venue for the final), create a league (with all of your favourites or made up), create a player (edit the hair length, put the hight in foots and inches up to 6 foot and the weight up to like the heaviest (e.g. 25 st), and editing the player kit can the player choose to keep a collar (depends who he/she is playing for) or to cut of his collar) and create a ball (like get a teamgeist design and choose the colours and put a logo on it) and an option can one of them be a change commentator option instead of martin tyler we can change it to clive tyldsley or archie macpherson

.7. women football: women are part of fifa as well so i think the girls should have something to cheer about.
8. ea sports trax: i think it should have snakes on a plane by cobra starship, le disko shiny toy guns, lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off by Panic! at the disco, thnks fr th mmrs by fall out boy, djobi djoba by the gypsy kings and the don by the view
9. gameplay: the crowed should get up and cheer when a goal is scored or a foul is committed, can the goalnet movment be realistic and and the daylight changing
10. after a competition is won can the actual trophy be presented?

that is all from me i hope you can make these changes i would love it if you do the goalnets

FIFA RULEZ!

yd
ARGENTINIAN LEAGUE!!!!!!!!! WHEN ARE YOU GONA WAKE UP !!!! BOCA JUNIORS STADIUM, WHEN YOU PUT THESE I WILL START BUYING FIFA INSTEAD OF PES
show real football stadiums not just man utd, chelsea, arsenal,liverpool and newcastle show other football stadiums in the premership it be lot better.
i think that they should add the confrence league.
i think that in your manager mode you should get offered international jobs as well as boots in the store
I know these are some direct requests but:

+ Please add the Iran Premier League
+ Please add the Azadi Stadium (It can hold 90,000, so how come it hasn't been done already??)
+ Please add Snow
+ Theres a glitch where the keeper saves a shot but crosses the goal line, in real life that would be a goal. So come not here??
+ Please add things such as club takeovers, players having fights and stuff like that into manager mode to make it more realistic...
+ Also in manager mode, how about after you reach a certain amount of stars, you can become a national coach??
+ Final request, this year when you release the game, i dont think people mind if it comes out a few days later as long as the transfers are upto september 1st. I mean this year the last day transfers were aplenty, but they were all missed out from fifa 07.

Thanks
make a dutch team plz in al the games of fifa except fifa wold cup there isn't a dutch official team like germany and england etc.

More new tricks like giving a panna xD and with the coach gametype enter something like fans doing vandalisem or something like that

And take out the bugs as much as possible :D

Keeper is great in the game :)
also what about showing half time intervals where the manager is giving the team a boll**ing
instead of individual player training sessions, what about whole team sessions?
PRESENTATION
Night matches in carrear mode exp champions league, or tuesday matches.

A proper trophy presentation for winning each respective league. This has annoyed me for years. This "team picture" celebration minus a trophy or winners board is dreadfull. Champs League presentation is not bad at all nor was world cup.
For UK cup finals Fa Cup, Carling Cup etc done a t Wembley havng the players go up the steps. For all others Uefa Cup Champs League have the exact replica of how it is done in real life, fireworks,confetti, captain coming up last to lift trophy see the loosing team get meddles and walk past the trophy.

Real money used for transfers, not this points nonsense.

Maybe if you start with lower league team and start with small ground have the option of building your own stands, with different designs and actually see your own ground develop during the season. Like on the manager games.

All teams that are on current gen versions+ more

All stadiums on current gen versions + some new ones like white hart lane, villa park goodison park, jjb stadium+ some more spanish italian etc

Fresh stadiums for lower league teams, not the ones that have been on the old gen series for the past 4-5 years.

Dynamic wheather

Some Flares going of, in goal celebrations, and just from fans haveing fun.

Goalie kits to be the actual kits they have not generic.

Nets to be made more dynamic & when in daylight you can hardly see the net.

Referee and linesman on the pitch during game.

Coin toss for end choosing,& for who takes pens first.


Goal celebration animations increased they are better than before, but very repetetive, like henrys chest beating seems very strange seeing players iike paul scholes doing it.
Some examples:
Away team players going to area where away fans are when scoring.
Team going to manager /coaching team to celebrate.
Shirts coming of, followed by bookings, not all the time but say for 89 min winners or cup final winners, or in derby games.
More fan shots when scoring.
Players maybe jumping in to crowd.

Stop Players wearing gloves on a bright sunny afternoons looks DUMB.

Make sure the dissapearing crowd bug is sorted.

PLEASE PLEASE GO BACK TO THE ROAD TO WORLD CUP GRAPHICS FOR FACES AND KITS, waxy face IS A DEF NO NO!!!

GAMEPLAY
Players like henry, c.ronaldo and ronaldinhio to actually have real pace advantage, the fast players are still not fast enough.

SKILLS ,MY GOD EA, CANNOT BELIEVE YOU HAVE LEFT THIS OF LAST TWO GAMES!!!!

Scoring from crosses to be made harder I find it far to easy to score from a cross. Players on live take advantage of it "me included"

Passing speed increased.

Players all seem to be very bunched up still.

Change player button needs to be improved VASTLY.I spend loads of matches frantically trying to get the cursor onto the correct player why if the opposition is running forward would i want my striker who is on the other side of the pitch be chasing the opposition player. it need to be automated to be that it is the player facing or near to the player coming towards your goal or area of the pitch.

AI for running into space needs tweaking sometimes players do not make the most BLATANT of runs.

It is still to hard to get away from players with first touch 90% of the time you loose posesion of the ball when performing 1st touch even when you do minimal movement of the analog stick before the ball reaches you which is what ea suggest.

it really is very hard to create space with close control not free flowing enough
a-league for fifa 08 please
Please add Russian League to FIFA 08. CSKA win UEFA cup 2 years ago.
Can you imagine a football match without fans? Can you imagine it without banners, fireshow, songs? I think today ultras played a great role in foolball life... So i think that fires, big banners, flags and performance should be in Fifa 2008. AND RUSSIAN PREMIER LEAGUE!!!
Last years FIFA was great but could you do somrhting about Birmingham City? We sold Robbie Savage 2 seasons ago yet our song is still 'Super Robbie Savage'. Our anthem is 'Keep Right On'
Thanks
Perry
Include Russian league
Include Russian premier league and Russian first league in fifa08!!!!
Russian championship has allot of greate players and coaches!
After CSKA moscow(a UEFA WINER) beat Arsenal we can see that the Russian champioship is one of the best! plus spartak moscow(a 9 time Russian league winner)wich is one of the best teams in russia must be included.
There are allot of greate players in russia and from russia Egor Titov,Kerzhakov,Saenko,Carvalho,Jo, Wagner Love,A. Pavlyuchenko, Pogrebniak, Akinfeev, Mozart, Arshavin,etc...... I believe Russia most sertanly must be inclueded in Fifa08
i think that they should put a little one on one or street and some indoor s*** in there man it will be sick man add like some other good stuff
First of all we want to have much more leagues than in previews Fifa's (not as xbox 360 version which only have 6 leagues, that was the worst thing about Fifa 2007) , and also this referring to America, in order that we can be able to play "Copa Libertadores" or "Copa Sudamericana". Also we need a lot of new stadiums, certainly as much comments from above we need the Morumbi, Maracana, bombonera (Boca Juniors), Huracan (Pachuca), Monumental (River Plate) and a variety of them (thinking in xbox 360 may be for downloading in Xbox live marketplace? just a thought...). Then we need really a lot of realism in the Career mode, maybe a fussion between a manager mode game and actually playing the game as we normally do in Fifa, that we can put the daily training hours, to have different strategies, to work the moral of the team, and also to have injury that can cost player the whole season (just like Owen) in order to add a lot of realism. The transfers between team also need to be improved in order that players such as Kaká aren't playing in Guadalajara or something like that. Another important thing to do in career mode is to add the possibility to be an internationa Manager once you have won a lot of things as a manager, that will be absolutely awesome. And last but not least, we need to see the judges in the games in order to add credibility to the whole experience of play football. I've got no complains about game play, I think is just nice, but as experienced player I think you should add more difficulty leves in order for us to never be bored winning all the games 5-0.

Thanks.
...Add in indoor soccer mode and other game modes...

...Definetly add in the A-League

...Better comments by commentators
Make the pre-match and post match more realistic...
maybe have like a presetation to the players who have made team of the month for pre-match and players swap jerseys for post match...

Also add in features from FIFA manager 07 like purchasing land and devloping new buildings.
Amir M. Abdel Ghany
I think it was a bad behavior from you to put Kaizer chiefs & Orlando pirates from South Africa in FIFA 07 in the time they are not from the best 50 clubs in the ranking, and don't mention El Ahly (no. 22 in the ranking and the 1st African, Asian and American team and the 3rd place in the last club world cup in Japan. Well, what about the African Cup of Nations? what about Egypt? Wasn't it the winner? What about its ranking as the best Arabian and African team which was no. 17 after the championship. In every version of the game you always prove that you are racists by eliminating the best African and Arabic from your consideration and putting Israel which is out of the best 70 teams. Please be more fair. Thanks alot
you should put that when the player is playing, the fans club scream more noisy and they sing a official song of the club
you had better have the mexican´s "1° division A " because you only have the mexican´s 1° division, please

then you should have more options like the player can use his propie alineation

then you should use more mexican´s stadiums
Liam Kempshall
i think they should have new kits every time u finish a season mode. instead of creating a manager why don't they have the managers in real life and what about doing different things like what happen in real life. oh and they could change the ratings of some teams because blackburn finished 6th last season and in FIFA 07 they only had 3 and a half stars i would give them 4 stars and why would they give man city 4 stars they finished 15th i would give them 3 and a half stars.
Use the Football Manager database and try and get as many leagues/teams in as possible, I was missing the Irish league, Russian league (especially) and the Icelandic Landsbankadeildin, and so forth.
They should put own kits editor just like in pro evo
U should be allowed to make your own stadium, an more choice of kit, an able to take real boots and customize em, and you be able to have more choice of hair, and better skills like in Euro 2004 and the Fifa Street series. And you should have post match commentry and see the ref. U should also be able to have other leagues like UEFA and the Ryman sort of leagues and like children leagues. U should also be allowed to customize peoples hair.
1.put all stadiums
2.all teams/leagues
3.players should argue/fight with d ref/players/linesman
4.crowd more realistic
5.real sponsors in manager mode
6.when a team won a league/cup there should be an award ceremony and lifting up the trophy
7.more celebrations and boots.
8.legend pages ( Pele Played ... Scores ... )
9.classic internationals
10.in manager mode the chairman give you money if they want to sign one or more player, like if your chairman wants ronaldo,he will give you money to buy him(big clubs)
11.different comentators/ chose who will comentate your match
12.better edit and create player(can change faces in edit and in create more better like in pro evo 6.
13.go past 10 minutes half/add like 20 or 30 minutes in the game settings
14.if the player get hit in a serious places like the head they should injured.
Sander Vervaart
I want to play with full-licensed Ajax, so that will mean the Eredivisie (Dutch competition) must be in it. That's why I bought an Xbox 360!
il like to see kids holdin the players hands like in real lfe a ref that dont just aper to give cards
pitch were it gets muddy and boggy head injurys like wht happend to chelsea keepper more fan chants
