  1. I do love fifa i think that it is mutch better then PRO EVO but i think that you schould work on manager mode transfers are better but it still isnt ok And i also hope that you will put a czech league

  2. Add new leagues like Iranian and Israeli leagues cos so many players emerge from these leagues (ie Ali Karimi and Yossi Benayoun) and also add the Olimpico Stadio (Rome) and the Maracana Stadium (Brazl) and the Azadi Stdium (Iran) cos these are the bigest stadiums in da world and regularly attract 100,000. Also include national teams like Senegal, Japan, Ivory Coast, Iran and Colombia.

  3. Try To Put More Attention On The Players. They Have To Be More Realastic. Both, About Their Movement And Their Statistics. I Mean Their Face, Attributes, And Clothes.
    There Must Be The Real Clothes Not Some Colored Texture-Less Shirts.
    Thank You For Placing The Iranian League In Da FIFA 07… 😉

  4. You should add important teams who made performance like: STEAUA BUCURESTI (is the best Romanian team who also won a Champions CUP in 1986, I mean the Champions League from today… .made it last year up to the semi-final of the UEFA CUP, and now they are in Champions League groupe stage ,and they already beat Dinamo Kiev with 4:1 … away match), RAPID BUCURESTI (who made it last year in the quarter final of the uefa cup and … who now is very close to the UEfa grup stage ), DINAMO BUCURESTI (last year were in the group stage of uefa cup, and now theu are very close to a similar performance because the team is stronger now), CFR CLUJ (who made last year a performance, they lost the UEFA INTERTOTO CUP FINALE!) … I MEAN THAT’S What I WANT!!! …. and something … a better real game!!! … a real body for the players … a real face … a real hand … a real foot … 😀 …something more real!!!

  5. please add the middleeast team in the new fifa and please add tactics perfectly in a new version of fifa u can made a new fifa can run in 128 mb vga

  6. if I was I would add leagues like Serbian Greek, Russian and Turkish because they have more quality then most leagues that you have add: Sweden, Norway, Hungary,USA, Korea…

  7. why don’t you add to fifa leagues like Russian, Greek, Turkish, Serbian, Romanian because they are much much better then most leagues that you have add, when i heard that Hungarian league is the new league in fifa i was so dissapointed because Hungarian league is not haf good as the leagues that i have add

  8. PES with licensed teams and leagues – thats what I mean when thinking about Perfect Football Simulator.
    1. I wanna see Russian Premier-League in new FIFA. Really, brasilian players from our league (like Wagner Love and Daniel Carvalho, for example) are playing in Brasil National; 4 russian teams are playing in euro-cups, and now its one of the most powerful leagues in Europe, except 5-top-leagues and some other, like Portugal.
    2. I wanna see Argentinian League – yeah, it would be interesting to play in it, because of:
    3. Realistic Libertadores Cup, its third important club-competition in the world for me. After UEFA Champions League and UEFA CUP, of course.
    4. I want to see Training Mode and some stats to do, like:
    a) Injuries stats – Every player have basic injury-stats, for example from 0.2 to 1 percents. When you foul on player, he gains +0.1 or +0.3 (its random, yeah) percent of injury. And every time you foul, this system is defining chance of injury. Every day of vacation this system is reducing injury-stats to 10 percents of this results to basic. For example:
    Player has 0.5 basic, then it was three fouls on him in game, and next game is 5 days later.
    0.5 + 0.7 = 1.2 * 50% = 0.6, where 0.6 – is percent of injury in next game.
    Then, Gamer need to play more carefully in trainings and to vary structure of the game when some player need to have a rest. And yeah, Gamer must see that stats of course, and its not an tiredness stats, but it may influence on it too 🙂
    b) Gamer can make some graph of shape. Every player have own points for that, and Gamer can choose peaks of his shape (number of peaks and their ‘quality’ – is what players own points mean). So, Gamer need to train team for the most important matches in seasons by this system 🙂
    5. It kinda weird, but… Woman National Teams – it can be bonus-mode or some patch, but everyone loves women (esp. woman ;)) Ratings of a game may increase in one moment after that! Just think about how many girls want to play in football-for-girls 😉
    6. A lot of bonuses like in PES. I played a lot of it even when i didn’t want to play. But i wanted to open ALL! Add videos of tricks, dribbling, goals and saves! Add secret national teams (like Woman, a ha, or classic Brasil and France), add classic players!
    7. Realistic referees. He can make a mistakes in offsides, in penalty (very cruel? but its real world ;))
    8. Cheating on the field. Just think about it – falling in penalty area with 5 percents of penalty shot and 60 of yellow card. And of course its not fair, but… eh… let it be one of modes that turned-off in default.
    *really, sorry that commented leagues from voting poll, i just think that i need to say what i want to see in new game*

  9. please add the middleeast team in the new fifa and please add tactics perfectly in a new version of fifa u can made a new fifa can run in 128 mb vga

  10. GAMEPLAY:

    – pay attention to players atributtes values, players has to act like they have 81 or 45 in shot accuracy, or passing; so that you fell like is to confront a good team or a bad team it’ll be much fun. e.g:
    ’bout players. if you have a player with 48 on tackling and 87 on marking, that doesn’t mean that defence on this player will be better than other, is just better on marking, but if i press A (on PC) this player have to be more prone to comit a foul than take the opponent ball..

    if a team has a defence line with players with 80-77-78-61, when you play you’ll have to check the other team and attack more on the right were the opposite team have a player with 61, you know.

    if Electronics Art pay attention to improve player’s behavior, movement and that.. i think that will be much easier to put the players on the pitch and then set tactics and even they let us put player freedly on the entire field. position by position.like we want.

    a CAM is different to LCM, so they have to be like a CAM. it’s simple as that!

    GUI:

    FIFA 07 is pretty good but i see betters!

    ANIMATIONS

    that changes betwen animations and “in game play” it’s pretty sh$%&·y
    when you made a goal and then came the animation. players stop and then they rise it’s arm and that.
    heading: is S$%&. players jump is so mutch better in PES.

    but even that FIFA it’s in the game! i will buy it!

    add Argentinian League.

  11. EA please FOCUS ON A BETTER GAMEPLAY! FIFA 07 is so much better than any other one of FIFA’s games but you could do it better!
    like others said, just pay principal attention on PLAYERS and not in other stuff!!

    FIFA peru en el alma.
    ps: Add Argentinian League

  12. Please reduce the price of FIFA and other EA Games products, because we are student and cannot pay so much for these games 🙁

  13. Hi there, my ideas are about new graphic engine for PC (with HDR and any efects like this … it would be best), indoor football, Czech league (Gambrinus Liga)and new tricks …. thx.
    _______________________________________________________
    |Football is the best game! |
    |______________________________________________________|

  14. I would love to see in FIFA better freekicks, more fients, and better graphics, this would make fifa possibly the best, but unfortunatly Konami has already made that. and it’s why pes is so popular … Thanks

  15. I think the best way for being better is to add best leagues from each zone which were not exist in previous version of FIFA games, like Iran’s league from Asian Zone. Also some stadiums like Azadi in Iran and Olympico in Italy.

    Another thing that should happen, is surely new graphics and much more details. Like spectators, benches and etc.

    Thanks!

  16. Ahojte, ja by som vás chcel poprosiÅ¥ o viac vecí. Napríklad keÄ? je aut tak je najprv ukážka, v nej ho hádže napríklad ballack, no v skutoÄ?nosti ho hádže terry, nemohlo by to byÅ¥ lepÅ¡ie? Mohly by ste tam tiež spraviÅ¥ kompletnú Ligu majstrov a UEFU. A napríklad aj to aby mohli hráÄ?i simulovaÅ¥ a niekedy by im to pomohlo, niekedy nie. A eÅ¡te som rozmýšľal že by mohli byÅ¥ lepší diváci a napríklad pri preruÅ¡ení hry by sa kamera pozrela do hľadiska a tam by bol Michael Schummacher alebo iná slávna osobnosÅ¥, bolo by to dobré a veľmi by sa to priblížilo realite. Aj keÄ? neverím že tam nieÄ?o také bude, ale za pokus to stojí. ÄŽakujem

  17. Well, I don’t speak English, I’m from Panama and my languaje is the Spanish but I’m going to do my best to write in English for you.

    1. I want more leagues, like the league of Argentina and Russia, with this two inclusions it will be OK.
    2. I want a more nationals teams like Netherlands, Colombia, Japan, Korea, Ghana, Senegal, Cote d’ Ivore, Serbia and Iceland will be OK.
    3. Real name for tournaments like UEFA Champions League and UEFA Cup
    4. All the real teams for the UEFA Champions League, all the teams that are in the most important club championship in all Europe must be in a FIFA, less in Rest of World.
    5. All the summer transfers actualized. You know that the transfer period ends in August 31th, you can wait until this date to actualize the game.
    6. More classics players and real leyends like Pele, Laudrup, Garrincha, Puskas, Di Stefano, Best, Kubala, Cruyff and others.
    7. Customized captian armband for the English Premier League.
    8. More customized faces
    9. No miss players like in old editions like Maniche (only in Portugal), Igor Tudon (only in Croatia), Hugo Viana (only in Portugal), Dario Silva (only in Uruguay) and others.
    10. More realistic habilities for “cracks” like Messi, Fabregas, Nasri, Lennoin, Wallcot, Nuri Sahin, they must be 80 like a minium .
    11. More customized free kicks, penalties and corner kicks style to kick like Ronaldinho’s 3 steps back or Roberto Carlos stops
    12. More freedom to take freekicks, give us the oportunity of kick from anyplace
    13. Unlimited editable players, I think that 40 editable players is a poor quantity
    14. More stats in Manager Mode, like top scores of other leagues, standings and other things.
    15. Give us the oportunity to score a goal with Rogerio Ceni, please, WE WANT TO TAKE FREE KICKS WITH THE GOALKEEPER
    16. Real accsesories with real brands like Nike, Puma, Adidas, Reebok
    17. When yo create a team the possibility of use a brands base for the kit.
    18. Depending of the players of the cover, put some videos of them with magic goals or something.

  18. hey i am not really a regular. only had 1998, 2000, and 2005, but i think it be cool to have a superstar mode like in madden. also, come on this is soccer where is the atmospere i want to feel it . you should have lots of chants and distict crowd actions for every club!!!! not just that premier league crap. i want the mls and other leagues as well.You guys really need to work on freekicks and penaltys the system now sucks!!!!!

  19. I suggest FIFA developers to run their own Weblog on the net. I do not mean current “Developer Blog”, I actually mean an independent blog (for example under URL: weblog.fifa08.ea.com).

  20. Why there is no option to conrol the spectators in the stadiums?

    I’ve allways liked to be in spectators place in the game and come into the feild and hit the players …
    Or when my team in a game is losing the match, have the possiblity to send my fans into the field and disturb the match …
    By the way I like to be able to headbutt the opponent players.

  21. – I would like to see Al-Ahly (Egypt) Club in next FIFA
    – Please do some improvements like PES 5
    – After the hard fouls, in which referee gives advantage, should referee give a card after the ball was out.

  22. Hi the best will be czech league Gambrinus League. I love Sk Slavia Prague and I can not nowhere play this game with this league and I hope that you do Gambrinus League to FIFA 08. Thanks.

  23. My suggestions:

    1. Argentinian League, playable in the game.
    2. A gameplay like “New Star Soccer 3”.
    3. Please Focus on “individual attributes” (take them more seriously) and “1 on 1 confrontation” (not with the goal kepper).

    That’s all!
    Thanks!

  24. I think FIFA 08 needs a tool that can handle the third-party patches. It could be a “Patch Importer”. There are many of patches each year from FIFA community sites, so then it would be nice if you include a feature in game that manages them.

  25. Пророк says:

    Yes, and romanian clubs must be in the game

  26. In FIFA 08 i want the romanian league “Liga I” (“Divizia A”), and a next generation graphic engine that implements HDR, and BLUR. I’m sick of those same old graphics ! Please change the graphic engine in the next FIFA game ! Thank you.

  27. First of all I want to say that the Fifa 2007 demo’s gameplay is better then the fifa 2006 … is much close to the reality. Dispite this fact … I think EA can do better then this … I mean, in my opinion, the EA SPORTS guys are the best.

    For the next game “FIFA 2008”, I want to see more teams, more leagues, I want ROMANIAN LEAGUE “DIVIZIA A” to be added to game, or at least 3-4 teams from this league (maybe in Rest of the World).

    You should add important teams who made performance like: STEAUA BUCURESTI (is the best Romanian team who also won a Champions CUP in 1986, I mean the Champions League from today… .made it last year up to the semi-final of the UEFA CUP, and now they are in Champions League groupe stage ,and they already beat Dinamo Kiev with 4:1 … away match), RAPID BUCURESTI (who made it last year in the quarter final of the uefa cup and … who now is very close to the UEfa grup stage ), DINAMO BUCURESTI (last year were in the group stage of uefa cup, and now theu are very close to a similar performance because the team is stronger now), CFR CLUJ (who made last year a performance, they lost the UEFA INTERTOTO CUP FINALE!) … I MEAN THAT’S What I WANT!!! …. and something … a better real game!!! … a real body for the players … a real face … a real hand … a real foot … 😀 …something more real!!!

  28. If your talking about fifa 08, then i would like to see more ethusiastic crowd, and absoulutly different SFX, the sound is always the SAME!

    thanks josh,

  29. The thing you guys need to do is to build a game with the pro evolution series gameplay or you will never be respected bye the real football fans

  30. id like to thank fifa for a job well done up til now. id like to ask for you to include the iranian professional leaugue since they usually do very well in asian compitetions and iran is a powerhouse of asia in general. Id also like to ask you to include a more realistic referee that gives advantage and misses offside calls, just like in reality, theres never a perfectly called game, thats the way fifa should be. Also, please bring back the directed free kick screen because the new version where theres no aiming mechanism is a useless waste of time. Thank you again.

  31. 1) Improve ball physics and shooting.
    shooting must be “free” and no more auto-guided like in old Fifa games.
    A real football game must have CORRECT physics and shooting system
    No more computer made curving balls. Freedom to human players to shot and select direction to shoot to.

    1a) Improve player movements: no more fake or un-natural movements and runs.
    On this side, PES/WE heavily beat FIFA. When I play PES players looks more realistic than in Fifa. Although FIFA07 demo looks the best FIFA game since my last played FIFA.. 98 version.

    2) Manager mode extended to as many human players as you like, so that could be done great competitions among friends on the same PC.

    2a) In manager mode possibility to play in National Teams and qualify/play in Euro/World Cup..and other regional cups, if called up.

    3) Next Gen graphic on PC version too.

    4) I can say face capturing in PES is a lot better than in FIFA, and also online community 3D released faces overcome FIFA faces. Improvements here would be appreciated.

    5) more Leagues? Well, surely Russian Premier Liga and second division!
    But considering CEP Project, with tons of new Leagues, if you have problems about spending money for all world leagues, better to spend your efforts in improving the engine of the game!

    6) Keep the game as close as possible to “editing” of online community.
    This give a lot of potental to the game itself, becoze modding is life for games!

    7) External Editor to modify and ADD new Leagues/Cups, TEAMs and Players.
    With possibility to edit every aspect of the Leagues/Cups:
    – promotions
    – relegations
    – region
    – position to reach euro cups
    – uefa coefficient
    and so on…

    so online community can easily update the game adding New Leagues, lower domestic leagues, New Cups and Tournaments…and so on.

    8) Pre-season tournaments / friendly matches.

    9) More Stadiums and stadium editor if possible, so that everybody can make his own home-town stadium from scratch 🙂

    It’s great when developers listen to the ideas of online community.
    Thanks!
    Hope you can make this game as close to real football as possible.

  32. i dont know why we dont see some arab famous clubs like raja of casablanca and wydad and the egyptian al ahly zamalek.what do you say about this????

  33. Well, Just i would like you to think it’s FIFA Football, not UEFA Football 🙂 So maybe a bit more teams from everywhere on the soccer planet would be nice.

    And also, I’d like to see the crowd waving flags coming back. Why not also some tifos additions if a team is used to that.

    Also, give us back promotion/relegation for lower countries like Belgium, Denmark, Austria, etc.

    Thanks.

  34. I’m sure that EA doesn’t have those league because of rampant pirating, I don’t know about Iran, or Russia, or Uruguay, but here in Brazil pirating is terrible. Even up till now Fifa hasn’t had the full Brazilian league, which is a great league with great teams. Why, I suppose it’s $$$$. But this is not wrong.

    I mean fifa makes the game, and they have to pay great programers to make a great game, its not cheap. So I suppose, (it’s my guess), that EA doesn’t want to award this pirating, plus it doesn’t help them make a better game, becaue they don’t get any money from all the piraters.

    I’m just saying this to all the people who pirate/copy this game illegally, if you want a better game, start paying for it.

    But, what would I like to see, I think it would be cool to play the Libertadores in the game. Also Concacaf Champions cup, or maybe the Champions cup of any region, all in manager mode.

    And put the World Club Championship in manager mode. I think they should be a way to program it so you can have a team qualify from one tournament to the next in the same year that come from leagues that have opposite seasonal schedules or champions cup. You can’t do this at the moment the way the tournament structure is set up in the game data (works with the European leagues, but not with Brazilian Leagues or MLS because of the oposite schedule. Maybe with the setup that the World Cup game has, which is different than the fifa 06, and it seems fifa 07 is the same according to the demo database.

    I like the fifa 07 demo, it seems to be the right direction in gameplay. According to all the Pro Evo crowd, that the gameplay for that game is much better. I don’t play that game, the demo would never work in my computer, so I never bought it.

    I like the more realistic gameplay in the fifa 07 demo, so I think that when EA conquers the gameplay challenge, nobody will be able to say anything against it.

  35. You should do the fans more realsitic. There should be a block with the team colours. The linesman should be more realistic too. He shoud hold the flag up if the ball is outside or a player stands in the offside. There should be a indicating panel which shows the real score of the game. The fans shoul use flags and torchs/flares. I think you shoul add the german Regionalliga (3. league) too and create new 5 stadiums (real existing stadiums). Fifa 08 should havetricot and face editor. Then fifa 08 were really good!

    ..and perhaps you can do a fun team (for example a b***es team: Everybody should be really nice and if you win they should see you their footballs 🙂 )
    That were fantastic!!! :)))))

    I´m sorry for my bad english

    Wish you good luck by creating new fifa

    Marc
