Your Ideas for FIFA 08

well what can i say i love fifa 07 ,but heres my idea to improve the 08 game, well just forget all the other fifa games and put all the soccer competitions in one game!!! add all leagues of the world and all national teams of the world, i love the national team selection screen , maybe u could add some old shirts from different natrional teams ,like the original hummel shirt from denmark and not the ugly adidas shirt they wear now:)

BRING BACK ALL THE TEAMS! I need my Scottish Football League. No S.P.L or M.L.S. give me a break! BRING BACK CUSTOM TOURNAMENT MODES!

Thanks for reading my complaints :)

Please include a trading option in the transfers.
Please allow us to negotiate for players before the transfer window opens.

For the past 3 to 4 years fifa has been my favorite game. However, the only way i believe that it could be more realistic is by the goals scored. It seems like the game is an all-star highlight reel for goalies. Fifa 07 did a good job of making goals more realistic in the fact that some deflections from the goalies would roll into the net. I liked this because it shows that even though the goalie is controlled by the computer it makes it seem human by making mistakes that often happen in real games. Some shots seem amazing right off the foot. I am talking shots that no matter who you are you can't stop it. But it always seems that the goalie will come out of no where and make a once in a lifetime save. With saves like this, it only leaves room for goals that don't really look too nice on instant replay. I have noticed that a majority of goals are scored off of a save from the goalie. Usually it deflects off of him but for some reason it takes him a good 10 seconds to get off the ground and by that time theres no hope. A goal is scored and its an unrealistic one at that. Other than that, there aren't too many other flaws with this game. It is my favorite for that reason and look forward to seeing the future of Fifa. Thanks for requesting suggestions because this is the only way to actually see what the people want.

Forgot to add this suggestion:

1. How come there is no FIFa manager 08 for the xbox 360? They should consider making then next game a double pack adding an Fifa manager 08 all in one. . [I sugesting this so use lower devision clubs in Scottish devisions 1-3]

2. I would to see a new mode added in the future Chairman mode: where youy decide Clubs budgets, Managers, Transfers, Backroom Staff, Squads Strips etc.

3. I would see see more unlockable cheat options in Manager mode like play with money ON/OFF, Fair Transfers ON/OFF, [Where the A.I. culb team would accept transfer any bid & A.I. player would accept any contract of offered.] morale On/Off, etc.

I would like to see added to next game:
1. When transfer menu. you choose be able to transfer a player to Free Agent pool insead of another club when keeping teams up todate. [EG EX-Rangers Defender Marvin Andrews move to Raith Rovers but as that team is not in the game I'm currently stuck with Marvin Andrews in Rangers in FIFa 07 so a Free Agent pool or place for free agents would be good.]

2. Actual training including including 5-aside matches at training pitches etc..

3. Reserves would be a good addition due the fact sometimes reserve players get called up to main squad..

4. when play Manager mode you should be able to release a player from contract there making that player a free agent.

i dissagre with those who say that free cick must be easier to score.it really is hard to score free cick in real life.so free cick in 06 is really nice...u really should concentrate to score a free cick....so dont change it....i want iranian league and of course indoor soccer too.i want the people more real and ofcourse manager near the field and other players who dont play to celebrate for a goal.....and the worst thing in 06 is when u win a cup..there is no cup in the hands of players and no one else except them..its funny...u should add photographer and others too in 08. why dont u add other national teams? like Iran or Saudi arabia...i Saw china in 06 but no Korea reap?!!! the forth team of the world in 2002? its funny..u really should change the 08 completly from others...u dont need to send out one every year......i want Azadi Stadium In Tehran that is really big and nice....it can have 100000 people in it...it really is big..thank u

fifa 08 needs much better and exciting from the players after a goal and during the game. fustration,shock fatigue, etc...also from the announcers while it happens and if it happeened.

After being terribly disappointed by the lack of A-league in the last two versions i think that a further exclusion in FIFA08 would be inexcusable. Melbourne vs Sydney had a record crowd of over 50,000 this year, larger than most of the EPL games that weekend. World-class players such as Dwight Yorke, Benito Carbone, Fred, Nick Carle, Romario and Kevin Muscat play (or did play) here and further built on the A-league's worldwide reputation as a high-quality league. The Australians performance at the World Cup again adds to the need for it to be included, as well as the huge number of FIFA buyers here. To be honest, i think even a few teams' inclusions in the 'Rest of World' category would be lazy, ignorant and utterly disappointing as the quality of the league deserves so much more. To even further build on its marketability here in Australia, the PAL version would greatly benefit from an Australian representative on the cover, most likely Tim Cahill, or even an A-League player to mark the league's FIFA introduction.

first of all i will like to see the game on the PS3! inlcude all the qulaifying nations from the past world cup in the interantional mode. what EA did with 07 for the 360 was a step in the right direction now all you need to do is refine it and all will be good.
like the throw ins are pettly clunky,
the trick stick should be a little easier too.
try to obtain more league licensing.
i want real currency in the next gen version.
i want really good online support too, that include free downloads, new stadiums, updated rosters thats available in all modes and just being able to download new content for both next gen systems not just the 360
include real time wheather changes and real time lighting. sun setting, precipitation changing during the match
include the same subbing system from Fifa world cup 06
ability to skip subbing cutscenes
put back the ref in the game and show him making the call, the lines man too
just stick to the essence of what real football is and don't make a PES knockoff because thats what some fans want so they should go out and get that game

I would love to see as many international teams you guys can get your hands on. With almost ever nation on this planet with a national soccer team I would love to see as many of them as possible. I think this can help you guys in the long run when it comes to later trying to get as many leagues throughout the world to sign on. If you guys start with with their respective national teams you can work your way down from there. Sure you have the big teams like England, France, Brazil, and Argentina but you can't forget Netherlands, Canada, Israel, Egypt, and South Africa.

Well i want that the league of my country appears in the game "venezuela"but if is very hard make this possible, add one team of my country and one of team of every country in sudamerican and the world, another think is making more realistic the change between player in the substitution, add more famous sponsors and other ideas that the people say, well sorry for my english is not too good
Thanks You

You need to put in Celtic Park, it is quite vital, along with a real Champions League with patches, music, and openings.

Greetings From Chile, my idea is to have an option of “way race�, is to create a player, faciones in detail, appearance, etc. but the abilities must go ganadolas as it plays parties, in these parties single can be occupied the created player so that he is but customized and but realistic, this can make options of game like, Request the ball, emit commentaries, power to go away to the blows (this option tendra penalties just as in the real life), etc.

I wish that when yiu want to make some beatifull moves like Ronaldinho you can on slowmotion because when you want to do it you must push the buttons really fastly and sometimes it becomes inpossible and i hate that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey im from Australia and I love Arsenal to bits, id like to see these in FIFA 08....

-Club Mode: You start of your 30 year journey as a Football Club, you pick your country and City and also where you want your Stadium located (e.g. North London, East Sheffield). You start of with only as much money too afford goals, grass, 750-1,500 seats or floodlights (If you choose 750 seats you can afford lights if you want more seats you have no lights) for your Stadium and you name it. You choose a logo and kit type.
As you progress you can choose types of Stadiums such as Closed Rectangle, Open Rectangle, Olympic style of Rounded ended Rectangle. You can have electronic boards, more seating. As your team gets better you get choose if you want a Stadium to be sponsored (e.g. if it was origianally Lakeside Park it could become Vodafone Stadium) and you could get the option of getting sponsors next to the goals.
Youre sign deals with Kit makers such as Nike, Adidas, RbK and more and you choose how long you want to be with them, ou can choose front sponsors like bwin.com, Emirates and O2 and you can get youre kit too have short sponsors and back and sleeve sponsors.
As you get more money you buy more players and as you start in the bottom division you make it too the top flight and get into europe.

Yea all that would be nice, and the "bullet time" i mentioned would be great with that. also, there should be arrows during freekicks or like a crosshair or something. one lastthing............the players should be able to talk outlou when they kick out the ball. There should also be a negotiation system with the referee, like a lil option to say things; and if you choose teh wrong thing you would be penalized more, and if you choose the right thing then would get a lesser punshment. whewwwwww lol

1) More teams from East Europe (champions of Ukraine, Russia, Romania, Serbia).
2) Some teams from Australia and South America.
3) Argentinian and Greece leagues. Copa libertadores.
4) Champions league ad boards.
5) Allians arena, Maracana, Olympic (Athens - final of champions league 06-07), Luzhniki (Moscow - final of champions league 07-08).
6) International championship between winner of UCL, winner of Copa Libertadores and any teams from Asia, Africa and Australia.
7) 3D fans, fires, more banners and more active fans.
8) Snow (in matchs between teams from north).

Hey guys u'll r doing a gr8 job......but da developers shud work on things dat can improve the gameplay to a gr8 extent...The changes i suggest are:

1.) There has to be option where a player can change a boot depending on the home or away kit...like for example. C.Ronaldo wheres Nike Mercurial Talaria III SG Red n Chrome with the home kit and wheres Nike Mercurial Talaria III SG White and Red with the away kit...so plz i wud like u to make this addition......plzzzzzzzzzz
2.) There shud be more scouts available so dat a manager can send more than 1 scout to different countries to find talent in different positions (RB,CB,CM,CAM,CF etc).
3.) Freekicks shud be more easy to control..... i mean dat players shud control the amount of spin on the ball and also the power....
4.) Most importantly The UEFA Champions League has to be there....the champions league ball n anthem cuz it is watched worldwide n fifa fans wud love it...
5.) Players shud be able to customize the kits after a year or two n dat the sponsor logos can be added 2.....
6.) Dribbling has to improve cuz its not the best in 07...C.Ronaldo in Fifa08 shud be able to do the same dribbling skills wich he does in real life...ok im asking too much but sumwhere close to C.Ronaldo's skills....
7.) Transfers shud be more realistic....i mean to say dat the transfers shud be like wat happens in da real leagues for example. like da gallas and ashley cole transfer....cash plus a player move....and if suppose ur playing wid an english club and u want to sell a player, the offers for that player shud come from other european clubs but in Fifa 07 it doesnt happen cuz in it offers r 99% made by the clubs of the same country.
8.) The Refs shud be realistic 2 like they shud giv a yellow card after 2 or 3 tackles but if its a malicious one then a straight yellow or red card...
9.) The scouts shud also tell the manager bout da talent found dat will he become a star in the coming time or not....and the reputation of the talent dat is he a dog fighter(ball winer) or a deadly finisher....
10.) During the match the managers shud come close to the touch lines n giv instructions to the players in a break of play or during a substitution...and the injured players shud be shown wen substituted and also the substitutes shud be shown...

Thanks guys i wud love to see u'll make these changes and some other as well wich u'll think can make Fifa 08 the best soccer game....Keep up the good work....

i would like to see some bullettime typeof stuff. imagine , your player gets his meter filled by doing good passes and tricks and once its full you can use it to like get into first person mode and control your legs with the analog sticks and pass every player and try to score a beautiful goal from distance or upclose. if you think that is gonan be too much advantage and too easy to score a gol then think of this......the goalie on the opposite team can control his movements too (like in penalty mode) and youll have to try hard to beat the goalie. i dont know maybe someone can improve on my idea, but i think this is a very good thing for the next fifa to have.

The manger mode should let you be an international team manager as well. You should be able to control both an international team and a club team. You can hold international friendly's and exhibitions.

You could start by including Netherland in the list of International Teams. Also if its possible then the ability to buy or offer contracts to coaches (just like players) from other teams instead of just having an upgrade utility.

beckhams face was really fantastic till fifa 2005,pls give him back his original face and hair back. there shd be may styles for taking free kicks for our created player.
long shots,tricks and tricks. commentators shd call the name of created as well as real playeres name after scoring a goal and shd talk little about the players history.
the game shd be very competetive:- as difficulty increases only the goal keeper has a lot of improvement ut players are not that good. and moreover keepers are not any more real keepers since they save almost every shot.

I think FIFA's skill moves need to be more based upon real-life situations, and I would argue with any; highschool,pro,college,coaches, and all players alike, that when your under pressure situations at the top level, that is when you separate the players from the pretenders. The ability to execute skills moves when it mattes most: ex. 3 defenders, 1 goalie, and the weight of the championship on the line this is Ronaldinho's time to shine. I believe his creativity level is at a much higher standard than what anyone is used to seeing in a real match. Now listen to this EA Sports everytime you come to one of these "situations", tell me if I'm wrong but you wouldn't see Ronaldinho pulling an "Elastico", or a "Flip Flap" when he is pressured by Cafu, and Maldini everytime down the pitch. No he is much more capable than that, let me make myself clear: HE IS A DANCER, HE HAS THE ABILITY TO PERFORM quite well in this predicament. To make FIFA 08 the most current and up to date, take my advice delete all of the wouldbe generic, redundant skill moves, and enter the "Players Zone."
To elaborate when you are in one of these situations "ahem" (Hughes Ricour, but I won't mention any names, Mr. Hand/Foot Kinetics Designer) and your running as fast as your legs will carry you, you enter the "Players Zone" you have the option to execute the Flip Flap and the Elastico, as well as "TOTAL CONTROL " (and i don't mean CPU assisted in any way shape or form) any directional movement with the analog sticks depending on which foot you are currently using. Remember, this is PS3 if you can do it 60 frames per sec., then you should be able to do just about anything uder pressure that comes to your mind depending on how creative you are.

FIFA 08 should have more leagues available so that if you are operating as a major European club you can seek out foreign talen and rising younger players that aren't available in FIFA 07 (Luka Modric from Crotia, Ryan Babel from Netherlands, etc.). Also, there should be more control over customizing and editing players such as shoes and third kits. In FIFA 07 there are a few shoes you can buy with points but not nearly as many as there should be.

well fifa is going on improving from itz previous versions.But what would i like to see in fifa 08 is more celebrations and the presesntation thing like, after winning a league the team celebrating with the cup and that kinda stuff and some more of celebrations after scoring a goal.And if possible some kind of videos of interviews of star players before some important matches.Thank you

Ideas for fifa 08:
1. - To add the option to personalize a league to change teams that raises first division or lowers to second
2. - That in the way to manager is possible to use youthful of their respective quarries
3. - To add the way to edit equipments
4. - To add the way of cracion of a customized team
5. - That the player has their styles to throw the free shots

Also to add leagues like: Argentine league, Chilean League, Uruguayan League

Add national team: Chile, Colombia, Netherlands, Ecuador, Serbia and Montenegro, etc…
Add international club cups:
The UEFA champions league (not only in manager mode)
The UEFA cup (not only in manager mode)
Copa libertadores de América
Add international cups for national selections:
FIFA world cup and their rounds of classification
EURO cup
Copa América
African cup, Asia cup
FIFA Confederations cup

To add sponsors, nike, umbro, etc… to be able to use its logos and to add them to the wished t-shirts...

If this got to work plus the other ideas this would be a game really very quoted and impressive

I think the next fifa should include at least the argentinian league and the best sudamerican teams, those whose participate in the "copa sudamericana" and the "copa libertadores". too it would include more national teams, teams with history like senegal, netherlands, colombia, or peru...

The pitch is too small for the new ball physics

FIFA 08 NEEDS MORE CELEBRATIONS AVAILABLE , BIG SCREEN IN THE STADIUMS LIKE THE OLD NES AND MORE LANGUAGES

The receivings of the passes are all the same, and the powerful passes don't bounce on the player's feet

please in fifa 2008 include chilean league and Libertadores Cup. And please agree more celebrations and make the people of the stadium move

i think the indoor idea is a good one. i played fifa since 97 and i would like to see more realistic refs, realistic crowds, players,and stadiums. also, i cant stand the announcers. they dont make you feel like the game is getting intense. winning eleven has a feature that i like. they have different commentary. italian, spanish, etc... fifa 08 should def. have it. more classic players like diego maradona and roberto baggio would be great.

- Top Scorers Table
- Celebration of the players when winning a trophy
- Positions in the general table of the teams that are going away to face (like in FIFA99)
- That the commentators say the names of the teams that are going away to face
- Libertadores Cup
- More southamerican leagues

Thanks!

I vould love to see European Championship 2008. And make please Russian and Ukrainian leagues.Their clubs are always un UEFA champions league!

hi ,

there is one problem about Fifa2007 and it is about free kicks!I think the present

method is not very good I prefer Fifa06 freekicks more.And another thing is about l

leagues.Please add the iranian because iran is the best team in asia and has got

alot of good players here!

thanks for your observations!

Halftime shows
A couple seasons later players decisions on their hairstyles affect their overall game play
Players create new moves and can execute them if the creativity level, another momemtem changer.

A really liked the players' growth and youth academy feaures, beacause they make team management play mode a bit more real.

What should be included in FIFA08?? You should include the Copa Libertadores tournament.... If it's not possible to include all of the south-american leagues, you should at least start with the most important ones, like the Argentinian(not only boca and river), Chilean, Brazilian and Mexican leagues, and then put some of the most important Clubs of the rest of south america in the Rest of the world league.

Mexican 1st division gameplay is very similar to the actual league, but it would be better if you include the Mexican 1st 'A' (second division) to feel the tension of being relegated at the end of a bad season :P

Greetings from Mexico! Soy Tigre de Corazon!!!

Make free-kicks better.

As well as the players growth u shld have there estimated value.

Well I think in FIFA 08 they will need to make an arabic edition that contains egyption clubs ex: EL SHLY, EL ZAMALEK, EL ESMAILY.
And also the fk program u need it to be like the fifa 05 which u can get goals easy.
For me i get alot of goals in fifa 07 of but others dont.

A free style button:
We need a free style button that makes some soccer styles like whenu click on "F"+"up".
itputs it bettwen the defenders leg and then go get it but the attacker haves 60% of chance to get the ball .
thanks EA for this fantastic game.

I really like FIFA07 on XBOX, player movement is great, gameplay is fluid and the graphics are superb. Ball physics are spot on. I have both 360 and Xbox versions and have to say that the 360 version is crap(graphics are dodgy, not enough leagues or players). The only thing I would change in FIFA07 on xbox is the free kick system, Fifa06 has the best, and some of the players like Olivier Bernard are missing. I'd like to see a system where older players can up their game rather than decline as seasons go on, and renewing contracts would be to persuade them not to retire. More time in summer in game to make signings etc.
I'd like to see the XBOX version of FIFA07 available to play on the 360's backwards compatible list so I can free up some space in my room by offloading the xbox as FIFA07 is the only game I use it for.

Also there is one thing with the free kicks....
When there is a foul near the area, the free kick isn't in the same place where was the foul.... and also ypu should fix the way to kick the fouls

it would be great if in fifa 08 the free kick system was the same as in fifa 2005 and more sponserships in manger mode like sky sports and jjb sports

it would be quite cool if in fifa 08 you could play a match and you were the referee

i think fifa 08 would be brilliant if when you sign a player in maneger mode you could choose a kit number for them and see them sign at a conference with the player and the maneger

what i would like to see in fifa 08 is celtic park and the lower league teams in scotlan d because if thier not there the scottish cup isnt really the scottish cup
i would also like to see the cis insurance cup because if you play in the scottish league you can not win the treble and the old firm is under rated aswell

make when a player has the to long or hes doing to much tricks to a player that player will get after 6 or 8 times that aplayer does a trick to him he will do a headbutt pass by him apush top the ground kick him on the ankle or something in frustrasion

please please ea sports put diferent commentarors for diferent for each diferant cup please it gets oring to hear the same line other and other

improve realistic statiums for playstation 2 dont change a thing for the statiums in xbox 360 the xbox 360 statiums are all ready look great and nice job ea sports for fifa 07 for xbox 360
