there should be a minigame which is a five a side competition. you should be able to make your own teams for example, buffon, terry, ronaldinho, henry, rooney.
you should be able to make your own kits which are nike, adidas, puma etc.
you should be able to make your own boots which are nike, adidas, puma etc.
pro evo has no chance the grass looks like i coulored it.
dios mio...ke fracaso..
- every stadium, at least of the major Leagues
- more atmosphere and better crowds
- pitch invaders (single) in major matches could be in a cut scene at the start of the match or at a time when the ball goes out of play (so it does not interfere with the game), or pitch invasions at the end of a match if a 'smaller' club beats a larger club or a small country qualifies for the world cup.
- more player faces, the world's best players pretty much all have their own faces in high detail now so why not concentrate on 'lesser' players' faces.
- specific adboards (as well as electric ones) and songs for clubs
-more than two commentators, the commentators could rotate and be random, so that you didnt always get the same one saying the same thing
- better cutscenes at all times, for example if a player is extremely badly injured they do not just get carried off on a stretcher like every other cutscene but a they are shown in agony with other players looking worried and getting drinks etc. before a golf buggy thing comes on to take them away, the commentator could later announce that they have had the unfortunate news that so and so has broken his leg, for example
- bigger and better celebrations!!! often when a goal is scored it simply shows a single player celebrating while others clap and stand around behind him. when in football do you see this? the celebrations need to include A MUCH GREATER NUMBER OF PLAYERS as well as being in the context of the game, if a player scores a last minute winner in a cup final the players should go mental! with the odd fan running on (not every time) and the crowd's noise should be almost deafening, whereas if a player scores a consolation in the last minute, with his team five nil down he should simply jog back to the half way line, with the odd high five.
- the weather, if there is a lot of the rain the ball should be more held up and THE PLAYERS SHOULD LOOK WET with their hair stuck to their heads etc.
- aggrivation, if a player is consistently fouled by the opposition without the referee giving a free kick he should become annoyed and eventually, depending on his personality fly into a nasty looking challenge, consistently argue with the referee, or push and pick a fight with a player. if this happens between two single players, in that one is consistantly fouling the other or they are bpth consistantly fouling each other, a fight will eventually break out.
- goalkeepers, should not dive for everything, for example if they have no chance they should simply stand as the ball goes past them (eg morten gamst pedersen free kick vs sheffield unt - paddy kenny). they should also sometimes get injured in challenges at players' feet etc.
- managers, the managers should also be shown like the players, ie in cutscenes when they score, are unhappy with a decision, shaking hands before/after matches (embracing too) and should be made to look realistic like the players. in manager mode you could have to give interviews where the manager's face is actually shown (match of the day interviews, sky sports etc) and the questions actually posed before you select an answer, instead of reading the question, press conferences over speculation etc could also be performed in this way.
- crowd trouble, the very occasional flair coming onto the pitch with the match stopped (in a milan derby for example)
- more actual referees with different stats, ie the world cup's referees and majority of the top leagues referees (graham poll, uriah rennie etc)
- world player of the year european player of the year etc AWARDS FOR EVERYTHING EG. GOLDEN BOOT etc etc etc
- goal of the season competition at the end of the year in which you get to vote (as a manger)
- international friendlies during season
this is all i can think of for now! but just doing this would make the game soooooooooooooo much better
- an option so that you can make your own formations and tactics before a game.
- more featured stadiums from championship clubs and other leagues
- the ability to dive or 'simulate'.
- during gameplay you should be able to see the subsites coming on and shaking hands with the player coming off etc.
- the ability to design your own unique stadium in create a club mode
- sponsership logos should change on the teams strip in co-ordance with the sponsor deal you sign at the beggining of the season
- reserve team matches in manager mode
- if you are a sucessful manager the opportunity to mange your country would be a good option.
- a more realistic staduim development feature where you can see work being carried out to increase capacity etc
 Celebration styles
- Sliding on the floor with your knees (Thierry Henry)
 Integration of World Cup Seasons & Leagues (especially in Manager Mode)
 Complete player profile, built on performances and on and off-field news reports
 Player career mode/profile?
 Improve Transfer mode, let it be easier
 Please let the weather graphics be more realistic, if it rains LET IT RAIN!!!
 Ability of Controllers to take snapshots of replays to be used as News strips, for next day bulletins
 Next day news feature, which includes match epilogue and preview
 More African and Asian teams appearing on their Champion and Championship League rosters e.g. Enyimba FC, Sharks FC etc.
 Please include the following features
- Goals in Retrospect, Thierry’s goal against Manchester United/Barthez-2003 (I think?)
- Bicycle kicks
 Award presentations
- Man of the Match
- Golden Boot award
- World Footballer of the Year
- Manager of the Year
- EU/Americas and other regional awards
 Media oriented match status captions on bottom of screen during matches at various in-play intervals e.g.
ENGLAND 3 JAMAICA 0
Crouch(11’)
Taylor (29’)
Owen (35’)
NB. You could make the caption curved at the edges
CONCLUSION
This is one edge you would have which no other soccer video game can top for your next 2 editions and you can only develop on each key one. But please don’t loose the current graphics quality.
I think FIFA08 should have Europe Cup and World Cup and also some African League
and Russian League. I hope you do this.
Argentine Primera Division
Russian Premier Liga
Also when creating a team be able to have the sign on the front of the kit. And a longer team name.
also when creating or editing players names, you can only type 9 letters, whereas it should be around 15. Because quite a few names are longer than 9 letters.
Please read this I hope you will include or think about some of my ideas. Thakn you for your tiume.
-Goal keeper never gets injured. Many times during gameplay the keeper has run into players and the actual goal base and yet he gets up and plays.
-Goal keepers should be allow to do corner kicks and penalties (not refering to penalty shoot-outs) during actual game time.
-As everyone, more teams from other countries and other tourments would be ideal. The fact that there are friendlies during the actual gameplay is fantastic. No sense on putting a World Cup since leagues are stopped during mention tourment.
-Snow? even though its somewhat cosmetic...still would make gameplay interesting just like rain. Of course, applying this feature to countries that have this type of weather. Not just blindly setting this up for all leagues.
-Here is a thought: For players reaching that age for retirement or on their last year, I think there should be an option to still try to extend the contract if they are performing well. I currently have a career with Catania. Corona is in his last year, but he is extremely essential to the team. Ok, he is 34, but he still has breathing air. Long shot, but might be interesting to have that option.
-Getting the players' faces more accurately. Not just for the popular teams. As mentioned before I play with Catania and hardly anyone looks like they are in real life.
-I read somewhere that there should be an option to see people's attendance in order to get a better idea on ticket princing. I find this very helpful.
-I seen messages that a player wants to leave, but never does and even renews contract with out any problem. It doesn't make sense. I think if a player wants to leave, either a more expensive new contract should be offer or just sell the player to the team he wants if such team desires the player.

The Rest I Think You Have Done A Great Job, But There Are Many Things You Should Add!!!

if they were 3D and acted like in real life, like were mostly sitting down, but in moments of anticipation started to stand up, then when a goal is scored all the arms go up or if it is a missed chance, then hands on heads in frustration like in real life.
Also record more and more chants instead of the same ones.
The crowds intensity seemed to drop off alot in fifa 07??
Crowds should definatley be wearing jerseys, or scarves or hats/beanies with team colours, not all but most of them, and there should be an away section too who should react to away team goals.
When a player makes an important tackle or makes a perfect long pass or thru ball, the crowd should respond as well.
Also, when a home goal is scored the volume and sound of the cheer should be fixed.. We all know what it sounds like, from a pretty settled yet present crowd sound, to a yyyeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!! sound like in the premier league, i mean, EA should record real goals at all the big stadiums from the crowd being normal to in celebration mode..
just fixing the crowd would make the game so more realistic..
-------------------------------------------
For every National team in the game, EA should include a national stadium..
i know that everyone that buys the game all over the world would appreciate it.
and considering alot of the stadiums are already in the game, it wouldnt be too hard?
And could you please give the Australian team and players like Tim Cahill, Lucas Neil and Mark Schwarzer the respect and attributes they deserve..
When they have a full squad to choose from, they can match any other team, like beating england 3-1 last time they played (in england).. or how far they went in the world cup, but ea never gives them credit..?
---------------------------------------------
There should be MORE OPTIONS for free kicks, there are so many more ways to take them than FIFA 07 offers us.
They should be available to use in training mode and set pieces could be assigned to your team, including player runs, ball placement, positioning...
You would assign a set piece for each zone of the attacking field, and be able to use that, or a shot on goal free kick as per normal..
Players should be able to have more styles, like automatically set off on runs down the wing without being told because thats what they would naturally do.
Or say i was playing as Everton, although Tim Cahill is a midfielder, if i put a cross in, he would have gotten foward to cause problems from headers, not James Beattie or Johnson.
Or players like Scholes and Lampard should be floating outside the box during corners to score goals from loose balls like they always do..
It would be good if you could edit player positioning during corners, even position them in a zone. It would make for some really interesting and realistic goals..
-------------------------------------------------
Change the commentary..
Barry Davies or Martin Tyler.. pllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllease.....
i think everyone is sick or hearing the same old s***e.
or maybe keep the old commentry and use different commenators for different games..
Seriously out of the realism of the whole game, 50-60% would rest in audio presentation..
-----------------------------------------------
Make the UEAFA champions league in the game and have adboards and the music.. it is a joke to have a separate game..
thats it for now,
hope ea read this..
• I think you should be able to add your own players who you think should be in the world team
• Definitely More leagues- Argentinean, Ivory Coast, Russian, Croatian, Nigerian, Ghanaian, Australian, Japanese… ext
• Be able to unlock stadiums in fifa shop (A lot of stadiums – 15 – 25)
• Perhaps create your own stadium (Number of seats, ticket prices, ext)
• Show you chosen logo on your created clubs kit
• Popular soundtracks (not boring ones)
• More Internationals, Netherlands, Finland, South Africa, Egypt, Cyprus… ext
• MOST CERTAINLY a UEFA Champions league
• Be able to edit players Hairstyles and much more added things on ‘edit player’
• Improved graphics on supporters in stadiums (PLEASE)
• Please add the Argentinean captain ‘Sorin’ to Hamburg.
another reason is that the teams in the greek and cypriot league arent bad their is at least some greek teams in the uefa and champions league
EA Games should put this in more leagues are better
