physics engine on player

increase element of incertitude

use the physics engine to every player,and differ arm , leg and neck in length,differ thin and fat.different ethnic group have different body shape,stars have unique body shape.

i love fifa and the intensity and excitement that is created when a goal is scored, especially when playing with a bunch of friends in teh same room. but when im playing on my own i want the excitement and intensity that goal scoring brings in a crowded room. i want the speakers to boom out chants cheers and screaming of the fans, i want to go deaf, i want intelligent comments on teh goal and the excitment to bleed through the tv. GO FIFA 08!

unlockable skills step over dummy
point system that you earn per player per game...
skill points that go up or down depending on how used in game.. try a lot of headers .
timing right header points go up... mis time they go down.. can train during week so many points and lose em right back for poor play in next match

reserve game

national coach feature... bargain club teams for time

1. Skill moves are a must
2. No more point system , make it a monetary value i.e. euro,dollar pound etc.
3. Make the refs appear in game, not just the cutscenes.
4. Weather.
5. Make the stadiums more realistic. i.e. the santiago bernabeu crowd is closer to the pitch on the north side and south side of the pitch. in FIFA 07 is too far away.
6. manager mode last as long as you want it, not just 5 years.

The Australian A-League would be a good inclusion for us FIFA fans down under : )

i think the referee and linesmen should be visible in the ps2 version, as well as tournaments like fifa world cup, asian cup, copa america, euro etc and even have the u/21 based on the current squads

make the gameplay kind of like the 2006 world cup game. that game has the best gameplay

You should definitely try to improve the gameplay. In Fifa 07 there is always a very short delay after you press the pass bbutton. I found it much easier to pass on the normal xbox. Also, make the goal net have more movement loke in PES

More leagues. Lots of missing leagues here so please include those in 08. Also more stadiums and more teams too. Add some Leagues from Asia too and also if it would be possible.. all national teams. And EA should also include the Champions League and other European competitions as is and not release a separate EC game. Also include other cups like the Libertadores, AFC champions league and other tournaments

1)Players should be able to pull of some of their Amazing Runs (eg. Messi vs. Getafe 06-07 and Henry's Stunning 40 yard free kick against Wigan Athletic-06-07) when certain conditions are met (eg. Good Form could Be a or one of the qualifyers for this display).It could be used to tie in the things of lesser importance such as TEAM MORAL and BALL CONTROL. This would undoubtably add to the gameplay in single player and Multi Player as Braging rights would be aided greatly by stunning displays of what their idols can do in real life.
Examples of suitable displays:-
Ronaldinhos Brilliant Stikes througout his Barca career.
(The stated in above paragraph)
Ronaldo's dazzling step overs ,then merciless finishing(Both Luis and Cristano)
Roberto Carlos' swirving Free kicks ,along with the other legends such as Beckham and Totti.
Understandably the players cannot do this from anywhere on the feild. The best way to fix this would be to just allow the players to do their talents in the general area where they would do them (eg. Messi-right wing near the half line). This could tie in tactics and mentality (Ronaldinho does his briliance down the middle coming from the left on the counter attach). These additions allow the stars and legends in the game to be like those in real life.As in the previous games all players were in essence created equal.

THE BEST WAY TO TIE IN THE TACTICS.
(For the runs)
The type of mentality (eg. defensive) and prefered tactic (eg. wing play+counter-attack)
Eg with Ronaldinho
In his prefered position, Ronaldinho would be approaching the half line on the counter attack. When Ronaldinho receives the ball a desired Button or Combination would be pressed to start the run targeting the defenders in Ronaldinho-wave-penetrating fashion.
The Way to Go on indicating the place for the run would be in Player Bio and a change in colour of the player name /SKILL GRAPH at the bottom of the screen.
Defenders Stike back
The User Presses the buttons to beat the defenders. depending on the difficulty level the computer will react
If the user wins By good margin-defender is beaten
If both are close-foul
If computer wins-Brilliant tackle(preferably sliding)
A Good way for this Mini-competion to work is:-
Put a symbol at a suitable lacation on the screen
Who presses first wins(also in multiplayer)
This would best Be done while the player runs at or towards the defender
These would make great replays

At the end a stunning finnish or pass should occur
This is a great time for the commentators to get excited

Free KICKs
Where shots are not normally taken from special players ahould do so.

Pluses
No other game does this
ADDS AGAIN MORE, DEPTH TO THE GAME
MUTIPLAYER gets even better
good players get really good

Another Way
Moves have a combination after run starts
L1+O=360 spin
in run user presses combinations
move occurs
Defender has button for type of tackle
L2+O=sliding tackle
Same battle different way

Thanks For Listening
Minor problems
Heading could be improved especially in terms of G
glamour (see Drogba and John Terry)
The flight of the ball is off slightly
NO NUTMEGING KEEPEr.
This would be a good display

I think that you guys should keep the quick throw and corner kick button cause those were cool.

More teams and leagues, more realistic just in all around play.

PUT A TURKISH LEAGUE WITH ALL THE NEW TRANSFERS DNT MAKE THE TRANSFERS LATE1!!!!!!! BCZ IF U DO I WONT BUY THE GAME WHIC U WONT MAKE PROFIT!!

please make russian football liague!!!!

Dont care what u do to 08, cant wait to buy it!!

I think the spanish narrators should be cristian martinoli and luis omar tapia, the actual narrator for FIFA 07 perro bermudez is not bad, but those i mentioned before are much better.
the corner kicks in FIFA 07 for XBOX 360 sucks, it's too hard to make a head shot, why the big difference between 360 and xbox one??....and please return the practice mode.

- Futsal
- "Be a Pro"-Mode with some Carrer-like Stuff like Training, Story, making it into the national team
- Weather
- the players should run towards the ball on their own

sell fifa to seabass

be the referee and select if marking the fouls or not. and if it is online put some tipe of reputation-meter based on the real fouls and the marked fouls and the number of matchs. so that way nobody can cheat online

Also for my previous suggestion you should make a player to start with and with each good game you have your player should get better and better

I think there should be an online mode where you play as just one player on the field with a bunch of other online players on your team, so like you can make your self a defence men and accually play defence against others. and there should be an option of being the goalie

For Fifa 2008 I would like the ability for me or us to setup a multi-player tournament, so one could pick a team and play them "thru" a tournament online with schedules and fixtures. 16 players enter one wins, spanning two or three days, and you can also be a spectator when you don't have a match

i think they should include more jerseys for the team
also they should have more national team for example haiti should be in this game since they won the caribean cup they also need to have more tournaments play where u have one team and u get invited to play in different tournament ex: mexico gettin invited to play in the copa america

YOU GUYS HAVE EVERYTHING CORRECT. JUST PLEASE! PLEEEEEASE!! IMPROVE THE GAMEPLAY!!! THAT IS THE ONLY THING MISSING FROM FIFA!!! THE GAMEPLAY ALWAYS SUCKS!!! AND MAYBE THROW IN A LITTLE XTRAS LIKE MORE AUTHENTIC CHANTS AND AI CROWDS AND BETTER ONLINE SUPPORT. OTHER THAN THAT IT'S ALL GOOD : )

Just make it like PES or better, that would be a big step in the right direction...

I think that you should pay more attention to the mexican league..you guys give them such poor stats! and their not that bad!..you gotta fix your gameplay..you guys got everything..BUT GAMEPLAY!...Winning Eleven graphics might suck.. music too..But gameplay.. SO REALISTIC! you gotta earn your gol's there...Fifa...one certain move you know its going in for sure...thats why i been selling all your games back cause they dissapointed me...Fix your gameplay and you guys got yourself the perfect soccer game...trust me :D

Realistic gameplay... that make you feel that you are controlling a real soccer tv game!
That emotionate you... that make you feel angry when you don't win... that make you feel desperate when you are down the score... that's what Fifa needs to be the best one.

Copy Pro Evolution gameplay and ad the Fifa's ingredients...

Just to start off,I had huge expectations for Fifa07and of course it was the biggest let down to any football fan. The first and most important thing to fix is the AI. Those were the dumbest teammates I've ever seen or played with in a Fifa game. second don't worry about the graphics get all the other stuff right first especially the game play. All that talk about ball physic and stuff didn't matter because the game didn't play fluently. The thing that makes someone happy about scoring a goal in a video game is seeing fun to watch celebration.Presentation is the key to keep people not feeling a drag every time they're in a menu or starting a game. We don't want Tvstyle presentation. we want video game style presentation. If i want to see TV style presentations I'll switch to the cable and turn to GolTv or fox soccer channel. I have so much more to say but so little time.
But one last thing It's ok to take ideas from previous games. Fifa 99 and 2003 anybody? Buts what does it matter these kinds of changes won't be seen till fifa 09 or later. EA sports know they'll sell a ton anyway,so they keep adding bit by bit to everything. It's a shame how enjoy playing older versions still today compared to the new games.

- goalies should not be too good. They react as soon as ball is hit
- the ball doesn't roll quick enough
- the ball sometimes bounces too much
- Goalies dive even though it's a simple catch
- commentator are too harsh . A close goal would be seen as awful.
- a more harder level after world class.
- the players should have a more realistic reaction. They all move the same. And when the players are tired, they don't look like they do.
- when sprinting, all the players are the same. > change it!
- the players are moving too simply. Forget about improving better graphics and improve on realistic actions such breathing more heavily after running.
- the crowd (supporters) are too less in stadium and they don't move. Make them stand up when they score if home match.
- make more realistic results. eg. premier league man arsenal chelsea and liv will usually come top 4.
- In manager mode the (not us but the rivals) oppponent top clubs of the world gets very weak after few seasons. They don't seem to buy new players unlike real life.
- make refree move more realistic (also assistant refree).
the whistle is always the same. When its a heavy tackle make it whistle several times.
- when two players are waiting to header the ball, make them push eachother more rather than just stading.
- when dribbling, the players move to straight in right angles and 45 dgrees more smooth curves while running would improve alot.
- should have different ways of kiking freekicks. Even though the player kiks the ball with the inside foot, the ball doesnt turn.
- have a freekick style where you can make the ball spin AND drop. not just spin in one way.
- celebrate more if its a cup final or league winner
- if close call for offsides dont call it.
- Have video news instead of newspaper all the time.

Russian premier league!In my opinion, all Russia will be very happy!

1.see the referees
2.see the manegers and players siting on the bench
3.save replays
4.practise while in manager mode
5.Make netr move a bit more whan you score/
6.Whem you have a corner you can make your keeper go up.
7.See the maneger getting fustreted if you are playing bad.

have more "unreal" unlockable content.
like:
exotic stadiums
indoor stadiums
classic jersey kits, i hate some teams new unis

more ways to customize the pitch in manager mode, like the ball and net color and stuff.
and have defensive AI more strategically sound. i can just walk in threw the wing and score.
and make the trick function different, its not really worth using, i mean dont make it like fifa street but look at the real game and there doing some pretty cool stuff out there.

consider it. itd be cool.

create a team feature would be nice, thanks

I think a player mode would be nice, where you focus on 1 person only.. still play games in team etc.. but you can be bought transfered in player mode your goal is to get moved to a big team.. i think madden has this superstar mode? not sure though i only play soccer games..

I think this would be interesting along side manager mode

As the other guy said, more realistic goal nets, i mean different teams have different looking goal nets.

More realistic supporters, fans sing there club anthems like YNWA at Liverpool and Keep Right On with Birmingham City.

All stadiums in EPL, also home fans stand up when there is an oppourtunity like a one on one or corner and away fans stand the whole game like they do in real life. Also some games there might not be full-houses so the first few rows of the stands are empty.

More grounds from the rest of the world like Boca and the maracana, different climates and different style pitches.


Better gameplay, copy Pro Evolution basicly.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE EA SPORTS PUT THE FOOTBALL LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP AND LEAGUE 1 AND 2 IN THE NEW FIFA 08 GAME PLEASE!!!

It would be harsh not to seeming as the UK is one of the most thriving communities which evolve around football.

Kiwi

more tournaments like copa america, u21 championships, a-league, championship, weather conditions play more havoc n have more own goals n make kits change every couple of seasons

i forgot one thing..u think u can add in the game the players fighting after a hard foul....and in the cover can u include carles puyol from barcelona.

Hy!!! I think that FIFA 08 must be more exiting then ever ! I'd like than new FIFA to be like a real football party!
1)to increase the athmosfer on the pitch and stadiums,the fans and sounds more real and exiting!!!
2)EA must increase the goalkeper's intelligence(in FIFA 07 they are so stupid)
3)the pitch and stadiums more realistic and alive as we are!
4)I'd like that there was the UEFA CUP and Champions League Tournaments and the specific CH.League song !!!

one way u can improve the fifa games are by adding more cups(world, gold, america). and probably add more leagues, like argentina for example. oh and maybe instead of one referee, more could be added, like the referees on the sidelines and the fourth official(the one that shows how many min. added and the changes).

i think they should make it possible to use tricks in de Xobx 360 version and training and tournament mode.
they should add more competitions like the dutch, scottish and more european and asian and south- and northamerican.

More international teams like Albania . Andorra , Kongo , tanzania . Ukraine . and mutch more so the teams can qualify to the world cup an euro competition

Use al competitions in the Xbox 360 version

and there must be a possebility to make tournaments

Fifa 08 should have real names on the competitioens like champions league and uefa cup and like that .. and i hope the manager would train a club and a national team.

please add the untucked shirt effect to the pc version of 08 and the cool create a player where you can give your players gloves and stuff to the pc version

its the little things that can make a big differance

please please please i beg ea and fifa dont make 08 on pc a tweaked version of the ps2 version of the game have the graphics equal to xbox360 on a normal tv it doesnt have to be hd until next year please i beg you guys dont make 08 like 07 on pc cause 07 on pc was just like 06 with only a few extras let us have the areana to play around in while the game loads let us buy boots in fan shop let us do all these new tricks you are making for the xbox360 version because its very unfair on us that we get all the scraps that xbox didnt want the pc is the most powerful platform but we get the weakest version of the best game FIFA.Please guys do us pc gamers a big faver give us graphics edit the skin of the players to be higher detailed the hair to be lose and high detailed add bloom lighting better crowds better faces and give us that awsome sweat effect like on the xbox360 version of 07

please post this letter to EA is was writern by a large mass of students from south africa who love fifa and hearts broke at news of another Fifa 07 disappointment

Include the national Czech Republic team!
